66% : Trump, meanwhile, turned his attention to the "blue wall" of Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, holding events in all three states late in the week and promising an economic revival.
65% : "Battle for women's votesPolls have shown Trump with an advantage among men who are likely to vote, but Harris with a huge edge with women.
55% : It's a topic that has been a huge Democratic advantage since the Supreme Court, with a conservative majority that includes three members appointed by Trump, in 2022 overturned Roe v. Wade's nationwide abortion rights protections -- opening the door to a new patchwork of state-level restrictions.
50% : Trump, meanwhile, has pledged the largest deportation effort in US history, and has said it would involve the National Guard and perhaps the military.
47% : That debate -- the first between Harris and Trump, and the only one both campaigns have agreed to so far -- could prove the most pivotal moment in the 2024 race.
47% : Despite what Trump seems to think, American women are smart and we aren't falling for his gaslighting," Warren said.Harris' campaign on Friday also countered Trump by announcing a new bus tour aimed at advocating for women's reproductive rights.
45% : Another key moment will come on October 1, when CBS hosts the vice presidential debate between Harris' running mate, Walz, and Trump's No. 2, Vance.
43% : In fact, the most detailed policy blueprint in the 2024 race -- "Project 2025," a 920-page document organized by The Heritage Foundation think tank and developed in significant part by people who served in Trump's administration -- is one Harris' campaign has used to attack Trump, while the former president distanced himself from it.
41% : Trump last week infuriated conservatives with his answer to a question about how he plans to vote on a referendum that will decide the future of abortion access in his home state of Florida.

33% : She pointed to the Alabama Supreme Court ruling earlier this year that deemed that frozen embryos are children, jeopardizing the legality of IVF treatments before Alabama's Republican governor signed a law protecting IVF access in the state after Trump said he supports the treatment.
31% : Both Harris and Trump have discussed policy through the lens of details and aspirations, rather than addressing the difficult questions about the exact contours of their proposals, how they'd win approval on Capitol Hill and how they'd be funded -- all of which would confront them in the Oval Office.
30% : The polls found Harris at 50% to Trump's 49% in Arizona; those numbers flipped, with Trump at 50% and Harris at 49%, in North Carolina.
30% : That split is common in presidential elections, but Trump is attempting to chip away at Harris' advantage with women in part through a focus on reproductive rights.
28% : The missing details could be fleshed out when Harris and Trump meet for their first debate on September 10.
