Harris, Trump tied in battleground Wisconsin survey
Vice President Harris and former President Trump are tied neck and neck in a Wednesday Quinnipiac University poll of Wisconsin voters.
Both candidates received 48 percent of the state resident’s support but results vastly differed when top election issues, personality traits and gender were measured.
Trump consistently outpaced Harris when participants were asked who would do a better job handling the economy, 52 percent to 47 percent; immigration, 53 percent to 44 percent; and conflict in the Middle East, 52 percent to 44 percent.
The Democratic nominee dominated voters' support on the issues of abortion, with 54 percent of people favoring Harris compared to 40 percent for Trump, and preserving democracy, with 50 percent to Trump’s 47 percent.
“Trump has an edge on some key issues and Harris on key traits. In a race that is so close, the question is: which will be more important to tip the scale?" Quinnipiac University Polling Analyst Tim Malloy asked.
In Wisconsin, 57 percent of women and 39 percent of men back Harris, while 59 percent of men back Trump compared to 38 percent of women.
Forty-eight percent of likely voters said they think Harris is honest while 40 percent say the same of the Republican nominee.
"It's the battle of the sexes and it's no game. There is a glaring gap in Michigan and Wisconsin between the number of women supporting Harris and the number of men supporting Trump. On November 5, it will all come down to who shows up," Malloy explained.
Quinnipiac also measured the razor-thin Wisconsin Senate race that will help determine which party regains control of Congress’s upper house.
Incumbent Democratic Senator Tammy Baldwin received 49 percent support among likely voters and Republican challenger Eric Hovde received 48 percent support according to the polls results.
The survey was conducted from Oct. 17 to Oct. 21 with 1,108 likely voters in Wisconsin with a margin of error of plus or minus 2.9 percentage points.
