Kamala Harris is On a Roll

Out of the blue, US Vice President Kamala Harris has broken President Joe Biden's record in a new poll, giving Democrats their best chance of defeating Donald Trump yet.

 

A Morning Consult poll released Thursday shows Harris leading the former President 46 percent to 45 percent – the highest level of support recorded for Democrats since tracking began in 2022. She also leads Trump 40 percent to 38 percent among independent voters. 

 

"Her level of support at the start of her campaign exceeds the highest level of support we gauged for Biden", the pollsters alleged. 

 

The survey results are the first from Morning Consult since Biden announced Sunday that he would withdraw from the presidential race and endorse Harris as the Democratic nominee. The pollsters update their 2024 tracking page on a weekly basis. 

 

In fact, it is even claimed that Harris (left) is a unifying force for the Democratic Party. The percentage of Democrats has more than doubled since last month, with nearly 2 in 3 now saying they support Harris at the top of the ticket. Wow, Harris is on a roll!

 

Recent polls show that she's helped close the "enthusiasm gap" that has plagued Democrats this election cycle. Not only has excitement jumped among Democratic voters, but they are also now more likely than their Republican counterparts – 27 percent to 24 percent – to say they're "much more motivated" to participate in the political processes this year.

 

Harris is sure to fancy her chances of beating Trump this November!
