Former President Donald Trump saw his slim lead in the battleground state of Wisconsin over Democrat Vice President Kamala Harris slip away, and the candidates are now tied, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released Wednesday.
The survey of 1,108 likely voters in Wisconsin conducted Oct. 17-21 showed the candidates tied with 48% each in a race that includes other candidates, with the same result in a head-to-head matchup. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 2.9 percentage points.
In Quinnipiac’s poll released Oct. 9, Trump led 48%-46% with other candidates included and 49%-47% in a head-to-head matchup.
In the latest poll, Harris was favored by women by a 57%-39% margin and Trump was favored by men by a 59%-38% margin.
"It's the battle of the sexes ,and it's no game," Quinnipiac polling analyst Tim Malloy said. "There is a glaring gap in … Wisconsin between the number of women supporting Harris and the number of men supporting Trump. On Nov. 5, it will all come down to who shows up."
