Kamala Harris' 'Blue Wall' Faces Collapse - New Battleground Poll Reveals Stunning Trump Surge

Former President Donald Trump has taken the lead in two of the three crucial Blue Wall states that Vice President Kamala Harris will likely need to win if she hopes to secure victory in next month’s general election.
According to Quinnipiac University’s most recent poll, released Wednesday, Trump is now leading in Michigan with 50% to Harris’ 47%, and in Wisconsin with 48% to her 46%. Meanwhile, in Pennsylvania, Harris still holds a narrow lead, with 49% to Trump’s 46%.
Just last month, Harris was ahead in Michigan by 50% to Trump’s 45%, and in Wisconsin, she led 48% to 47%.
In Pennsylvania, Harris had been up 51% to Trump’s 45%, but Trump has since closed that gap significantly, according to Quinnipiac’s polling data.

The Real Clear Polling average shows Trump slightly ahead in both Pennsylvania and Michigan, based on surveys conducted in recent weeks, while Harris maintains a slim lead in Wisconsin, by less than one percentage point.
Trump’s strongest performance in these Blue Wall states comes from voter concerns about the economy, immigration, and the situation in the Middle East, while Harris remains strongest on the issue of abortion policy.
Quinnipiac’s poll was conducted from Oct. 3 – 7, among likely voters. The sample sizes were 1,412 voters in Pennsylvania, with a margin of error of +/- 2.6 percentage points; 1,007 voters in Michigan, with a margin of error of +/- 3.1 percentage points; and 1,073 voters in Wisconsin, with a margin of error of +/- 3.0 percentage points.
Quinnipiac just dropped a bomb on the Presidential polling world:

What are your thoughts?
Trump’s polling numbers against Harris are considerably better than they were against Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton in the lead-up to the 2016 election.
At that time, the Real Clear Politics polling average showed Clinton with a 3.4% lead in Michigan, but Trump ultimately won the state by 0.3%.
In Wisconsin, Clinton had a 6.5% lead in the polls but ended up losing the state to Trump by 0.7%.
In Pennsylvania, the polls showed Clinton ahead by a narrower margin of 1.9%, but Trump still managed to win with a 0.7% margin.
