[The Reuters Poll places Kamala Harris](https://www.reuters.com/world/us/harris-trump-locked-tight-us-presidential-race-reutersipsos-poll-finds-2024-07-30/) 1pt ahead of Trump.

> U.S. Senator and former astronaut Mark Kelly of Arizona had the highest favorability rating among this group at 32%, followed by governors Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania at 27%; Andy Beshear of Kentucky at 20%, J.B. Pritzker of Illinois at 14% and Tim Walz of Minnesota at 11%.

So Kelly has pulled ahead in the short time this has been going on.
