As the US presidential election approaches, the competition between both candidates Kamala Harris and Donald Trump is becoming increasingly intense.

Multiple national polls have shown Harris either leading or tied with Trump in the race in recent months.

However, the latest poll overturns the previous poll as it shows Trump is now gaining ground in many national polls.

Both candidates are targeting Pennsylvania, Michigan and several other key states that are expected to decide the Nov. 5 election.

Harris joined the race in July after Biden abandoned his re-election bid following a poor debate performance against Trump in June.

A Wall Street Journal (WSJ) poll of 1,500 registered voters conducted Oct. 19-22 found Trump leading by three percentage points, with 49% supporting him and 46% supporting Harris.

An earlier poll in August showed Harris leading by one point, 48% to 47%.
