Trump leads among white voters and has strong support from male voters, while Harris is ahead among non-white and female voters. Additionally, age demographics are split, with Harris performing better among younger voters and Trump holding a lead with Gen X voters
.The race has varied across key battleground states, with some leaning slightly toward Harris and others toward Trump, emphasizing the role of the electoral college in deciding the winner.
