Harris cuts Trump's lead to 4 in Texas and 5 in Florida

Florida and Texas are within the margin of error in the presidential race between former President Trump and Vice President Harris, according to a poll released Friday.

The survey from Emerson College Polling/The Hill showed Trump leading Harris in Florida by 5 points, 50 percent to 45 percent, and in Texas by 4 points, 50 percent to 46 percent.
