Vice President Kamala Harris is leading former President Donald Trump in six national aggregate polls for the extremely tight 2024 US presidential election.

Harris joined the campaign trail after President Joe Biden’s exit from the race on July 21 and has since garnered widespread support from the Democratic Party.

As of Saturday, six national aggregate polls place her in the lead in presidential polls, with margins ranging from .5 to 2.5 percentage points.

Aggregate polls are consistently updated as new polling data is added, shifting the averages in real time. The following percentages are as of Saturday afternoon.
