A poll released Sunday found former President Donald Trump continues to hold a slim lead over Vice President Kamala Harris in the wake of their debate last week.
The poll found Representative Ruben Gallego (D-AZ-03) with a comparable lead over former newswoman Kari Lake in Arizona’s race for the U.S. Senate, after a Democratic strategist called the race “essential” for the party to retain its senate majority.
While Trump was the narrow winner of the Trafalgar Group’s presidential survey, the results were nearly inverted for the Senate race between Gallego and Lake, as 47.2 percent said they planned to vote for the Democrat, while to 43 percent told pollsters they intend to vote for Lake, giving the Democrat a 4.2 percent lead.
There seemed to be greater uncertainty among the electorate when it came to Gallego and Lake, however, as 4.4 percent said they plan to vote for another candidate and 5.4 percent said they remain undecided.
The new survey is consistent with other recent surveys tracked by RealClearPolling, which shows Gallego leading Lake by 4.5 percent in its aggregate of polls.
