Kamala Harris leads the former president Donald Trump by four percentage points 50% to 46% in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Michigan, all crucial states months before the election, fresh polls by The New York Times and Siena College revealed.

Registered voters questioned believe Harris is more intellectual, honest, and temperamentally fit to rule the country than Trump. Many Democrats, however, have an issue with the fact that she is not willing to stop the transfer of weapons to "Israel" amid the war on Gaza.

The findings will boost the Democrats as Harris and running mate Tim Walz continue campaigning, attending a spate of events in swing states that are likely to influence the outcome of the election.

On Saturday, the candidates conducted a rally in Las Vegas, Nevada, where the Biden-Harris ticket won by more than two points in 2020.

In Pennsylvania, where Biden defeated Trump by just over 80,000 votes four years ago, Harris' favorability rating among registered voters has increased by 10 points since last month, according to Times/Siena polls.

If the Democrats want to regain the White House, Harris will need to win Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Michigan, three key battleground states that Biden won in 2020.

The latest polls may enrage Trump, whose few recent campaign events have been dominated by rage at the rapid shift in momentum since naming JD Vance as the proposed VP.

Vance, who has been labeled "weird" by Democrats as he presses down on 2021 statements about the US being ruled by "childless cat ladies," is seen poorly or unenthusiastically by the majority of independents, Democrats, and registered Republicans, according to a new survey.

However, despite the polls, only 53% of voters believe Harris has a clear vision for the nation, compared to the 60% who believe the same of Trump.

Trump continues to lead in terms of voter trust in his ability to handle the economy and immigration, two of the three most important topics, according to polling, whereas Harris is leading on abortion, an issue Democrats hope would help influence voters in important battleground states like Arizona and Wisconsin. 

Trump makes misogynistic remarks about Harris: Axios

Former President Trump has been in a nasty mood in recent weeks, regularly calling Vice President Kamala Harris a "b****" in private, according to Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan of The New York Times.

Trump's advisors privately admit his sexist rhetoric is highly problematic, and they are concerned that he would use it in a public discussion to his harm.

According to Steven Cheung, Trump's campaign communications director, "That is not language President Trump has used to describe Kamala, and it's not how the campaign would characterize her."

In a phone interview with "Fox & Friends" chat show on Wednesday, Trump expressed that he "heard she's sort of a nasty person."

During his Mar-a-Lago press conference on Thursday, he said Harris is "not smart enough to do a news conference."
