Since Vice President Kamala Harris became the presumptive Democratic nominee, experts predicted she had room to improve the Democrats' stance with certain demographic and in different states. Now, as early polls of her candidacy come in, a new poll shows the VP is seemingly gaining popularity among Latinos in battleground states.

A recent poll by BSP Research and reported by New Republic provides reasons for optimism among Democrats, as it shows Harris with a significant lead over her opponent, former president Donald Trump, among Latinos, a group that is considered to be key ahead of this year's elections. The survey was conducted between July 23-26, right after President Biden ended his reelection bid on July 21.
