Republican Donald Trump has a two-percentage point lead over Democratic U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris, according to a Wall Street Journal poll published on Friday, narrower than the six-point lead in a survey earlier this month over President Joe Biden, who has since withdrawn from the presidential contest.

Trump leads Harris by 49pct to 47pct according to the poll of 1,000 registered voters that had a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percentage points.
