Harris Outpaces Biden in Polls as Dems Rally Around Her Leadership

Vice President Kamala Harris is attempting to breathe life into the Democratic ticket as she allegedly makes headway in national polls, outperforming President Joe Biden during his campaign. According to a recent Marquette University Law School poll, Harris is securing the support of 52% of registered voters, while former President Donald Trump is hot on her heels at 48%. Among likely voters, Harris nudges up to 53%, leaving Trump just behind at 47%. This poll cunningly includes voters who might have initially hesitated to support either candidate, showcasing a sort of political game of “who would you rather” between the two.

Interestingly, Harris seems to have rallied Democratic support in a manner that left Biden floundering. Back in May, a similar poll had Trump leading with 51% among likely voters, while Biden trailed with 49%. This reversal is like watching a team scramble to find their footing after losing the first two quarters. It raises eyebrows about whether Harris has truly found the magic touch that eluded Biden. When reflecting on a hypothetical scenario where Biden remained in the race, Trump’s numbers shine even brighter. With 47% picking Trump over Biden’s 43%, it seems the former president would have comfortably sent the current occupant of the White House packing back to Delaware.

Democrats seem to be warming up to Harris, with a striking 87% satisfaction rate regarding her nomination. Meanwhile, Biden’s support plummets as a whopping 87% of Democrats believe he should have exited the stage, perhaps indicating that the party is ready to move on from the old guard. Only 10% of Democrats expressed any form of dissatisfaction with Harris, which could imply they’re just eager for new leadership, even if it’s only by a hair.

However, the confidence regarding who will win in November paints a different picture. A solid 58% of those surveyed state that Trump will likely take the win, while only 42% chime in for Harris’s chances. If the incumbent were to stay in the race, a staggering 69% would bet on a Trump victory, leaving only 19% believing in Biden’s prospects. This confidence gap illustrates that the Democratic ticket remains shaky, as they appear to be banking on Harris merely as a lesser evil compared to her predecessor.

Diving into congressional races, Democrats boast a narrow lead with 52% of voters saying they would support them, while 48% are leaning Republican. This tight race hints at a potentially competitive environment, particularly after the previous poll, which showed a balanced 50-50 split. With a margin of error at plus or minus 4.1 percentage points, the question remains whether this sentiment will stand up as the election approaches, or if Republicans will once again seize control as they have in the past. Ultimately, with Harris at the helm, the spotlight is firmly on the Democrats, who seem to be shuffling their deck, hoping to keep from sinking in a sea of conservative enthusiasm.
