MOSCOW - US Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and Democrat candidate Kamala Harris are running neck and neck ahead of the presidential election, a fresh Leger poll released by the New York Post on Monday showed, according to RIA Novosti/Sputnik.

Both candidates have 49 per cent support ahead of the Tuesday vote, while the other two per cent of respondents said they would vote for someone else.

Both Trump and Harris are equally expected to improve Americans' quality of life, at 44 per cent each, but the Republican candidate took advantage over his Democrat rival in terms of the clarity of his economic strategy plan, at 45 per cent against 42 per cent.

The poll was conducted from Oct 31 to Nov 3 among 950 likely voters, with the margin of error not exceeding three points.

Owned by Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation, the New York Post endorsed Trump for President in late October. - BERNAMA
