Trump urged to home in on swing states as some Republicans worry about 2024 chances

Published September 22, 2024 7:00am ET



Some of former President Donald Trump’s allies on Capitol Hill and on K Street are privately expressing concerns that the Republican presidential nominee has made some recent strategic errors, including his travel schedule, that are resulting in a tighter race than initially expected.

Vice President Kamala Harris and Trump remain deadlocked according to recent polling, with a little over a month left until Election Day. A new national poll from the New York Times, the Philadelphia Inquirer, and Siena College found the two candidates were tied at 47%, according to voters polled Sept. 11-16. The margin of error was plus or minus 3 percentage points.
