Trump tops Harris by 6 points in Arizona: Survey
Former President Trump leads Vice President Harris by 6 points in the battleground of Arizona, according to a poll released Friday.
The USA Today/Suffolk University survey found Trump leads the vice president 48 percent to 42 percent in the Grand Canyon State. Green Party candidate Jill Stein and Libertarian Party nominee Chase Oliver got 1 percent each. About 5 percent were undecided.
“Trump’s strength is driven by the two top issues in Arizona — the economy and immigration,” said David Paleologos, the director of the Suffolk University Political Research Center. “Trump is winning each issue by overwhelming margins.”
About 47 percent of Latino voters in Arizona said they back the vice president, while 35 percent said they side with Trump. Arizona has around 1.3 million Latino-eligible voters, according to Pew Research Center.
The top two issues among the survey respondents were the economy, at 27 percent, and immigration, at 21 percent, and both topics are seen as key issues in the election. About 52 percent of the poll’s respondents said they were worse off than they were four years ago.
In another recent poll, the vice president had a 3-point edge in Arizona, according to Bloomberg News/Morning Consult. But Harris trailed Trump in Arizona by 3 points in a recently released poll from Fox News.
Trump has a 48.5 percent to 47.7 percent in Arizona, according to The Hill/Decision Desk HQ’s aggregate of polls.
The former president has a 4-point lead in Maricopa County, a bellwether county, getting 47 percent to Harris's 43 percent, while about 8 percent of voters were undecided, according to the USA Today/Suffolk University survey.
The statewide poll was conducted Sept. 21-24 among 500 likely voters. It has a margin of error of 4.4 percentage points. The survey focused on Maricopa County was done over the same period among an additional 300 likely voters, with a margin of error of 5.65 percentage points.
