US election 2024: Three days left – What polls say? The US presidential candidates are campaigning in the key Midwestern swing states of Michigan and Wisconsin, seeking to lure voters.

At rallies, Vice President Kamala Harris slammed former President Donald Trump for his remarks earlier this week suggesting that former Republican Congresswoman Liz Cheney, a staunch critic of Trump, should have “guns trained on her”. Trump has previously suggested that Cheney should face military tribunals.

Meanwhile, in his rallies, Trump insisted that the “guns” comment was a legitimate criticism of Cheney’s hawkish foreign policy stance: If she promoted wars, she should have to fight in them herself.

What are the latest updates from the US Polls?

Nationally, FiveThirtyEight’s poll tracker shows Harris ahead by 1.3 points, as she has been for the past week, and roughly where she and Trump have been for the past few days – but at a much closer margin than the 2.8 percentage points she was ahead by exactly a month ago, according to a report published in Al-Jazeera.

In critical swing states, which could determine the election outcome, the competition is even tighter.

Key battleground states include Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Georgia, Michigan, Arizona, Wisconsin, and Nevada.

FiveThirtyEight’s daily poll tracker indicates that Harris’s lead in Michigan is approximately 1 point. However, she has lost her lead in Nevada, where Trump now leads by 0.4 points.

In Wisconsin, her lead has risen to 0.8 points, up from 0.6 on Thursday.

Meanwhile, Trump’s advantage in Pennsylvania has shrunk from 0.7 points to 0.1 points. His lead in North Carolina continues and is now at 1.3 points. Trump is also ahead in Arizona by 2.1 points, and by 1.5 points in Georgia. However, all these gaps are within the margin of error for polls – so, in effect, the two candidates are in a dead heat across the swing states.
