Contributing sentiments towards policy:

47% : "In terms of the popular vote, Harris has drawn even with Trump with a surge of key demographic blocs," said Mark Penn, the co-director of the poll.
47% : Fifty percent favor Harris, while 43 percent pick Trump.
44% : A Harvard CAPS/Harris poll found Trump up just 1 point over Harris among registered voters, 47 percent to 46 percent, a narrowing of his lead since July.
44% : Both presidential candidates are otherwise winning their party bases, with white, male and rural voters favoring Trump, while Black, urban and college-educated voters favored Harris.
43% : All together, the numbers show Harris and Trump heading into their first debate amidst a tight race.
42% : In July, Trump led the hypothetical by 4 points.
40% : Harris and Trump are also tied in a four-way race with independent candidate Cornel West and the Green Party's Jill Stein, both with and without leaners.
38% : The leftover 7 percent are unsure, and that marks "a key pick up" for Trump, Penn said.
36% : The Harvard CAPS/Harris results are in line with a new poll from the New York Times/Siena College that put Trump up 1 point against Harris, while an Emerson College Polling survey found Harris with a slight edge over the former president.
15% : They'll face off on ABC News on Tuesday, mere months after a debate between Trump and President Biden led to the incumbent's historic exit from the race.
