Kamala Harris is headed to the Democratic National Convention riding a wave of momentum, as Republicans work to leverage an advantage with voters by attacking her new economic agenda.

A poll released Sunday shows that Harris leads Trump narrowly in a head-to-head matchup, 49% - 45%, among registered voters nationally. The same poll, from the Washington Post, ABC News and Ipsos, showed a dead heat in early July when the candidate was President Joe Biden.
