Kamala Harris overtakes Trump: Surprise in Iowa just before choice!

Iowa, USA - Washington (dpa) sensation shortly before the US presidential election! A brand new survey shows that the democrat Kamala Harris has overtaken in traditionally conservative Iowa Donald Trump! According to the survey of the “Des Moines Register” in cooperation with Mediacom Iowa Poll and the renowned opinion research institute Selzer & Company, 47 percent of the voters surveyed want to vote for Harris, while Trump only reaches 44 percent. Harris' ahead of 3.4 percentage points is still within the framework of the fault tolerance-a head-to-head race that could mix up the political landscape!

a dramatic changeover

In September, Harris was still behind Trump, who dominated Iowa in the last elections. The last victory of a Democrat in this state was in 2008 when Barack Obama triumphed. In the current survey, which was carried out from October 28th to 31st and in which 808 probable voters took part, there is an amazing change. While Trump was still 18 points ahead of Biden in June, the mood has now been overturned. But be careful: surveys are often unpredictable in the USA and should be viewed with skepticism.

The "des Moines Register" notes that older and politically independent women in particular support Harris in this crucial phase. Neither Harris nor Trump have made an election campaign since the end of the prim in Iowa, which also makes the dynamics exciting. National surveys show a close race between the two, and although Iowa is not considered Swing State this year, a victory for Harris could mean enormous success for the Democrats.
