Democratic Party Vice President Kamala Harris<\/a><\/strong> leads Republican candidate Donald Trump<\/a><\/strong> by three points, with 46% to 43%, according to the latest poll conducted by Reuters and Ipsos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The four-day poll, which ended on Monday, showed that Trump, who trailed Harris by six points in the Reuters\/Ipsos poll from September 20 to 23, was the preferred candidate on a range of economic issues. Some voters may be swayed by his claims that illegal immigrants are prone to crime, assertions that have largely been discredited by academics and research centers. The poll had a margin of error of about three percentage points, Reuters reports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Respondents rated the economy as the biggest issue facing the country, with about 44% saying Trump had a better approach to addressing \u201ccost of living\u201d compared to 38% who chose Harris. Among a range of economic issues that the next president should address, around 70% of respondents said cost of living might be the most important, with only a small percentage choosing labor market, taxes, or the argument that \u201cI\u2019m financially better off.\u201d Trump also had more support than Harris in each of these areas, although voters by a margin of 42 to 35% felt Harris was the better candidate to address the gap between the wealthy and average Americans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump appeared to be encouraged by widespread concerns about immigration, which is currently at its highest level in America in over a century. About 53% of voters in the poll agreed with the statement that \u201cillegal immigrants in the country pose a threat to public safety,\u201d compared to 41% who disagreed. Voters were closer on this issue in the May Reuters\/Ipsos poll, where 45% agreed and 46% disagreed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
