Harris outpaces Trump among key voter group.

Kamala Harris leads Trump in suburban voter poll

According to a Reuters/Ipsos poll, Vice President Kamala Harris is ahead of former President Donald Trump by 6 percentage points among suburban voters.

The survey, conducted during September and October, shows Harris leading this group with 47% compared to Trump's 41%, reports The Hill.

Harris also leads Trump with 45% against 43% among households with an annual income from $50,000 to $100,000.

However, the former president still maintains an advantage among voters who consider the economy the main issue ahead of the general elections; 46% of respondents said Trump is better prepared to handle this issue compared to 38% who preferred Harris.

Trump also outpaced Harris on crime issues in recent polls.

Nevertheless, analysts noted that Harris's campaign speeches focused on building an "economy of opportunities" have proved effective among voters.

"Her emphasis on accessibility has been very effective in narrowing Trump's advantage on inflation and economic issues," said David Wasserman, a political analyst from the Cook Political Report, in a comment to Reuters.

Since Harris became the Democratic Party candidate in July, she has increased the party's support among suburban residents by 9 points, making a significant comeback after President Biden lagged behind Trump with 43% to 40%.

Harris also gained a 6-point advantage over Biden among approximately one-third of the population earning from $50,000 to $100,000 annually.

Data were collected from 6,000 registered voters in six Reuters/Ipsos polls.
