A transformed race: Harris builds momentum in latest polling

Vice President Kamala Harris leads former President Donald Trump by five points, 49% to 44% among registered voters nationwide.

That result is within the margin of error, but it marks a change from the previous NBC News poll conducted back in July .

Since then, Harris has nearly doubled Biden 's lead over Trump with Women Voters going from 11 points to 21 points.

Trump still leads in most areas, though by smaller margins than in a January poll.

Mark Murray , Jonathan Borger and John Heilemann talk about how the race has been transformed by Kamala Harris .

The campaigns are not are paying attention to polling like this anymore, they are looking at battleground state polling. And I think they all think that all the battleground states are within in the margin of error. That they are using the word underdog a word from the word 'underdog' in all their appeals, trying to motivate Democrats .

Trend lines do favor Harris and that's why her team feels better about where she is heading in these six weeks .

Michigan , Wisconsin , North Carolina and Nevada are, are still close, but they're feeling good about those states.

Pennsylvania and Georgia toss up that it's just a, just an absolute toss up. Pennsylvania is the state that keeps Democrats up at night .
