Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are deadlocked in the latest national NBC News poll, 48% to 48%, with Trump bolstered by Republicans coming back home to support him after last month’s rough debate and a subsequent polling deficit, as well as by a favorable voter assessment of Trump’s term as president.
Said pollster Jeff Horwitt: “As summer has turned to fall, any signs of momentum for Kamala Harris have stopped. The race is a dead heat.”
