Voters remain split between Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Kamala Harris regarding economic management, though a poll suggests Harris has an advantage on middle-class taxes. Economic concerns aren't the only issues; foreign policy and immigration are also crucial as the election nears.

The Associated Press-NORC poll reveals that while Trump's economic edge has diminished, he retains support for tariff policies. More voters trust him with handling immigration. Harris, conversely, is favored for her stance on abortion policy and climate change.

Despite the differences, voter pessimism about the U.S. economy continues, with many believing the country is heading in the wrong direction. The findings highlight the complexities both candidates face in securing voter coalitions.
