Republican nominee Donald Trump leads U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris by 2% in a national poll conducted by Fox News, published on October 16, 2024, just weeks before the upcoming presidential election.
The new Fox News poll shows Trump at 50% and Harris at 48%, reversing the lead Harris had in the previous month’s survey.
Donald Trump Overtakes Kamala Harris, Fox News Survey Shows
According to Fox, this poll marks Trump’s best performance since announcing his campaign in November 2022.
As both campaigns near the final stretch, the race between the former president and the current vice president remains tight.
Trump has recently gained momentum, leading in Polymarket’s official 2024 election forecast.
Harris Pushes for Crypto Protections
This survey comes at a pivotal time in the election cycle as both candidates outline their stances on digital assets and cryptocurrencies.
On Monday, Harris announced her latest initiative aimed at creating an “opportunity economy” for Black male voters, in which she promised to protect digital assets.
“She will make sure owners of and investors in digital assets benefit from a regulatory framework,” reads an agenda from the Harris campaign. It also notes, “This ensures that Black men and others who participate in this market are protected.”
The Harris campaign pointed out that 20% of Black men in the U.S. have owned or currently hold cryptocurrencies.
In addition to advocating for fair cryptocurrency regulations, Harris has promised up to one million forgivable loans for Black entrepreneurs, new teaching opportunities, a National Health Equity Initiative for Black men, and the legalization of recreational marijuana.
While Harris made several promises, some members of the crypto community expressed disappointment over the lack of details on her digital asset policy.
Trump Launches New Crypto Token
While Harris emphasizes regulatory protections for digital assets, Trump has taken a different approach by formally launching a new cryptocurrency token under his family’s platform, World Liberty Financial.
However, the launch has been met with lackluster numbers, raising just $12 million of its $300 million goal within the first 24 hours.
As of Thursday morning, blockchain data reveals that just 11,740 addresses hold the WLFI token.
Despite Trump’s fondness for crypto, some critics have questioned the token launch, comparing it to a pump-and-dump scheme.
Trump has long been seen as the more crypto-friendly candidate, having promised to enact a regulatory framework favorable to digital assets if he wins next month’s election.
With the race still too close to call, the outcome of the election remains uncertain.
