KAMALA Harris is leading Donald Trump in the polls after securing the Democratic presidential nomination.
The former California senator, 59, officially became the first woman of colour to lead a major party ticket after the Democrats announced that 99% of delegates – some 4,600 – had voted for her during a five-day ballot.
Election analyst Nate Silver’s national poll aggregate now shows her leading Republican nominee Trump at 45.5% to 44.1%.
When President Joe Biden withdrew from the contest on July 21, Trump had a 45.2% to 41.2% lead.
