Former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are running neck and neck in typically blue Virginia, according to a poll.
The University of Washington’s Center for Leadership and Media Studies poll, published Friday, shows the candidates are tied two in a two-way race among registered voters, while Harris has razor-thin edge with likely voters.
Each garners 45 percent of the 850 registered voter respondents’ support in a head-to-head matchup. Three percent prefer someone else, and four percent are undecided. Two percent would not vote, and one percent refused to answer.
Harris leads Trump narrowly, 48 percent to 46 percent, among the 756 likely voters sampled. Another six percent are either undecided or would support another candidate.

I am guessing that the undecided break for Trump. Largely shy Trump votes.
Good news
I see it as extremely bad news, for the country.
That we have half the country voting for someone as empty and stupid as Kamala Harris is really really bad.
It's a symptom of a larger problem, failed schools, failed colleges, activist lefwing media. Need to correct all 3 so people can start thinking on their own.
I knew about this days ago because I watch a couple of polls; Rasmussen did a new one last night!
I’ll send you the promised list as soon as my lap top is available!
Looks like once you get out of that northeast corner of the state, it is getting a lot redder than even the last time out. I can imagine areas around Richmond and Charlottesville may also still be that bit Dem, but other than that, very much pro Trump in the rest of the state.
Perfect
Repeat of 1980, when the momentum went Reagan’s way.
I agree...rampant inflation, illegals causing crime and sucking up resources, food prices keep going up, rentals through the roof, no one can afford a home, 2 wars, 2 assassination attempts, horrible economy, etc, etc...and they want more of this BS?
....having lived in the Commonwealth for over 40 years before moving to Texas, I would also add the Tidewater area to those other areas that are pretty blue....lotsa Federal workers [sic] in that area, and heavy military assets there, too...I’m sure the career bureaucrats don’t want their gravy train stopped or at least cut back under a potential Trump administration....
Norfolk and Portsmouth are "N" towns, pretty dark. Newport News? Suffolk—I'm guessing red.
Hampton, Poquoson, Yorktown ????
I hope. But this is a state that disappoints every presidential election.
Lots of signs for Kamala up in Fauquier County, especially on Beverlys Mill Road. I can only guess that these are people whose livelihoods depend on Federal spending.
I’m pretty sure there is cheating in VA : (
If Heelzup is truly only up 2 in VA then Trump is sweeping the battleground states.
I also would assume that a lot of those people in northern VA have a vested interest in the government staying as large as possible.
In fact many of those 45% of Kamala voters probably work for the federal government.
less so than years past. the current governor has put a lid on it.
federal workers are almost all blue.
biden has been actively weeding out anyone in the bureaucracy who votes republican. their dei policies have driven out the rest. There are republicans in the federal bureaucracy but they are few and far between and very very discreet about their political leanings.
Pollsters need to learn midterms are not comparable to Presidential contests.
The rural voters are getting out.
Voters are not reliable in midterms even when they say they are certain to vote.
