For the first time in nearly a year, Americans expect the Democratic presidential nominee to beat former President Donald Trump in November.

According to the latest poll from The Economist/YouGov, 40 percent of U.S. adults who were surveyed between August 4 and 6 believe that Vice President Kamala Harris is the likely winner of the 2024 presidential race. Out of the 1,618 adults surveyed, 38 percent said they believed Trump would be victorious.

While a small margin, it is the first time since October 2023 that Americans have indicated in an Economist/YouGov poll that they think Trump will lose his reelection bid to either Harris or President Joe Biden, who dropped out of the race as the Democratic nominee on July 21. In the survey released last week, Trump was predicted to win over Harris 42 percent to 35 percent.

Harris' boosted chances of winning the election may be due to the increased enthusiasm among Democrats since she entered the race. This week, 60 percent of Democratic voters said they were "very or extremely enthusiastic about voting" in November, while 58 Republicans said the same.
