,
, ‘Winning over these three key battleground states known as the “Blue Wall”, which favored the Democratic party in the past, plays a crucial role in winning the White House. While Trump won all three battleground states in the 2016 election, President Joe Biden won them back in 2020.’,
,
, ‘Quinnipiac analyst Tim Malloy expressed concerns for the Trump campaign in the three key battleground states, stating that the Republican strategy on immigration and the economy may be losing momentum.’,

, ‘In one of the Southern Sun Belt battleground states, Georgia, Trump leads but Harris is closely trailing. Georgia is the second state with the most electoral votes at 16, following Pennsylvania. According to a poll conducted from the 9th to the 15th by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution in collaboration with Georgia State University, Trump has a 47% approval rating while Harris has 44%, with a close race within the margin of error of ±3.1 points. In a virtual matchup between former President Trump and Vice President Harris conducted before Biden became the Democratic presidential candidate in July, Trump led with 51% to Harris’s 46%.’,
,
, ‘While Harris leads in battleground states, she trails behind Trump in nationwide polls. A Gallup survey conducted from the 3rd to the 15th of this month among 1,007 Americans showed that Trump’s approval rating was at 46%, a 5-point increase from August. In contrast, Harris’s approval rating dropped from 47% in August to 44% this month. Both candidates have similar disapproval ratings, with Harris at 54% and Trump at 53%.’,
,
, ‘On the same day, 111 former Republican officials and lawmakers declared their support for Vice President Harris. According to a letter released by the Harris campaign, they stated, “While we may not agree with Vice President Harris’s policies, she possesses the essential qualities to serve as President, unlike former President Trump.” Those who endorsed Harris in the letter included high-ranking officials from the Reagan, George H.W. Bush, and George W. Bush administrations, as well as former officials from the Trump administration.’,
