Poll shows Kamala Harris leading Donald Trump in Iowa for first time

A new poll in Iowa shows Kamala Harris leading Donald Trump 47% to 44%, marking a significant shift in a state Trump won by over 8 points in the last two elections. The poll, conducted by Selzer for the Des Moines Register, highlights support from women and older voters. The Trump campaign dismissed the Selzer poll as an "outlier," citing another poll that shows Trump with a 10-point lead. The Emerson College poll, conducted shortly after, indicates Trump is favored among men and independents, while Harris performs well with younger voters. Iowa's electoral votes are crucial, with both candidates focusing on battleground states as Election Day approaches. The contrasting poll results reflect differing voter sentiments and priorities ahead of the election.
