Who is winning in swing state polls?
Right now, polls are very tight in the seven states considered battlegrounds in this election with just one or two percentage points separating the candidates.

That includes Pennsylvania, which is key as it has the highest number of electoral votes of the seven states and therefore winning it makes it easier to reach the 270 votes needed.

In a sign of how race has changed since Harris became Democratic nominee, on day Biden quit
race he was trailing Trump by nearly five% points on average in these seven states. National polls being carried out at the moment so we have less data to go on every poll has a margin of error that means the numbers could be higher or lower.

But looking at trends since Harris joined the race does help highlight the states in which she seems to be in a stronger position, according to the polling averages.

In chart can see that Harris has been leading in Michigan, Pennsylvania & Wisconsin since start of August - but the margins are still small.

All three had all been Democratic strongholds before, but Trump turned them red on path to winning presidency in 2016. Then Biden retook them in 2020 & if Harris can do the same this year then she will be on course to win the election.
