Harris Leads Trump in Iowa: What Does It Mean?

Just before the election, a poll by a well-known pollster showed Kamala Harris leading Donald Trump by three points in Iowa. This poll was called "shocking" by polling expert Nate Silver, who said it took courage to release it. The pollster, Ann Selzer, has a history of going against common beliefs and being correct. The poll asked 808 likely Iowa voters between October 28 and 31. It had a small margin of error of 3. 4 points. Of those surveyed, 47% supported Vice President Harris and 44% supported former President Trump. Harris has strong support among women and older voters in Iowa. She leads Trump by a large margin among women, especially those over 65. Independent women also favor Harris, while independent men lean toward Trump. This poll changed Nate Silver's prediction model. It now gives Harris a 17% chance of winning Iowa, up from 9% before the poll. However, other polls still show Trump leading. The Trump campaign dismissed this poll as an exception.
