We’ve seen a lot of momentum going in the direction of former President Donald Trump in the last couple of weeks in the polls. In that time, he’s even taken over the popular vote poll. He’s now leading by 0.5 in the national vote, 48.5 to 48. He’s also up 1.0 in the battleground states. 





But there are a couple of interesting things to note, including a new shock poll from Echelon Insights, which is a well-thought of poll. The most interesting thing is what it has to say about Pennsylvania. It has Trump up by 6 points head to head with Harris, 52-46, and 5 points in the full field, 51-46. 

If Trump takes Pennsylvania, given the way the other states are leaning, he likely wins. 

Now, I would note it’s a small poll, only 600. But it was also taken more recently than some of the other polls, so it may be capturing the Trump momentum from things like the Joe Rogan interview and other moves, as well as a rejection of Kamala Harris because of things like Joe Biden’s “garbage” remarks.

We’ll have to look at how the poling continues to break to learn if others match it–that is, to see if it’s a harbinger. Right now, it’s a bit of an outlier, but it’s definitely interesting. PA is already at 0.7 for Trump up in the average without that factored in; you can see the momentum there appears to be with Trump. 

Then too, now the RCP has New Hampshire and Minnesota as toss-ups. 

There have been some recent polls, such as the New Hampshire poll that we reported–the New Hampshire Journal poll–that had Trump up by 0.4.

Harris still has the lead there, but it’s much tighter than they expected: 





Then, too, there’s Minnesota:

Theoretically, if Trump could take New Hampshire, he could lose the Rust Belt and still make it to 270. 

Now, Harris still has the lead there but it’s a problem for her that these possibilities are even cropping up, and it could be a sign things are slipping away from her generally.
