Trump leads Harris in state Democrats have won for over 2 decades
Former President Donald Trump has pulled ahead of Vice President Kamala Harris in New Hampshire, according to a New Hampshire Journal/Praecones Analytica poll released Sunday. The last time a Republican presidential candidate won New Hampshire was over two decades ago, when George W. Bush was running in 2000. Trump has managed to gain momentum in the longtime blue state, polling at 50.2% while Harris trails at 49.8%, according to the poll. Although Trump's lead is slim, this poll may sound the alarm for Democrats who have otherwise dominated the state in seven of the last eight presidential elections. 'She's on defense and knows President Trump is on the path to victory.'Trump previously lost the state to President Joe Biden in 2020 by 7.3% and to Hillary Clinton in 2016 by 0.3%. In 2012 and 2008, former President Barack Obama won the state by 5.6% and 9.6%, respectively."There's a reason Kamala Harris has been spending money in New Hampshire," Karoline Leavitt, a Trump campaign spokeswoman and New Hampshire native, told the New Hampshire Journal. "She's on defense and knows President Trump is on the path to victory."Nearly half of adults in New Hampshire, 44%, self-identify as Democratic or Democratic-leaning voters, while just 35% self-identify as Republican or Republican-leaning and 20% self-identify as having no partisan leaning, according to a Pew Research study. Despite having more Democratic-leaning voters, Trump is pulling ahead of Harris, likely due to a growing favorability among independents. "To my fellow Granite Staters who want to keep our beautiful state safe, business-friendly, and free — get out and vote for President Trump," Leavitt told the New Hampshire Journal. "Kamala is a radical liberal who would destroy New Hampshire and America forever." Like Blaze News? Bypass the censors, sign up for our newsletters, and get stories like this direct to your inbox.
