US Democratic nominee Joe Biden's lead in many battleground state polls is dwindling as Donald Trump's support increases.
The candidates are in the final push of their campaigns ahead of the 2020 US election next week, on November 3.
Now the US President has come from behind in three battleground states to poll statistically even with Biden.
Reuters/Ipsos released their latest poll on Thursday, which was conducted in late October.
They asked just over 1000 voters each in several swing states who their prefered presidential pick was.
The poll found political support is very divided in the key state of Florida, which has 29 electoral votes up for grabs.
Of those surveyed, 49 percent said they wanted Biden to become the next President and 47 percent said Trump.
Since the margin is within the poll's credibility interval of 4 percentage points, the race is statistically tied, Reuters reported.
The results also show increased support for Trump since the last Reuters/Ipsos poll which had Biden with an apparent lead of 50 percent - 46 percent.
Here's how they polled on other topics:
- Already voted: 32 percent
- Who would be better at handling the coronavirus pandemic: Biden- 48 percent; Trump - 42 percent
- Who would be better at managing the economy: Biden- 41 percent; Trump - 52 percent
The battle for Arizona's 11 electorate votes is also expected to be close with Biden currently polling at 48 percent and Trump at 46 percent.
Biden had decreased 1 percentage point from the last poll, Reuters reported.
Of the 1007 adults polled in Arizona, 50 percent said they thought Biden would be better at handling COVID-19 while 42 percent said Trump would be better.
However, the majority (50 percent) thought Trump would be better at managing the economy.
North Carolina (15 electoral votes) is the third state where the candidates are statistically tied and there is only a 1 percentage point difference. Biden is on 49 percent and Trump on 48 percent.
But Biden is pulling ahead in the other states polled by Reuters/Ipsos: Florida, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania.
The battleground states, also known as swing states, will be incredibly important to the candidates on election night due to the electoral college system.
The person who wins the most electoral votes from the battleground states is likely to become the next President of the United States.
