Kamala Harris now leads Donald Trump by four points in a close 2024 race as Democratic enthusiasm surges, potentially impacting voter turnout in November.
With only 100 days left until the 2024 US presidential election, Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump are in a close race; Harris is focused on progressive issues, while Trump campaigns on economic nationalism.
