Post-DNC Poll Not Good For Harris

[luyenchuong3000]

A recent poll following the Democratic National Convention (DNC) has revealed significant shifts in voter sentiment as the 2024 presidential election draws near. The August Voter Omnibus Topline report by Echelon Insights highlights emerging trends that could influence the outcome of the upcoming election and potentially bring a new national leader. The poll isn’t the best news for either candidate, but especially Vice President Kamala Harris.

One of the most notable findings is the widespread dissatisfaction with the country’s direction. Only 29% of respondents believe the U.S. is on the right track, while a substantial 64% feel the nation is headed in the wrong direction. Economic concerns continue to dominate voters’ priorities as the 2024 election approaches. The poll reveals that the cost of living is the top concern for voters, with 25% citing it as their primary issue. Immigration is a close second at 14%, followed by jobs and the economy at 12%.

The survey also provides insights into the approval ratings of the current administration: President Joe Biden has a job approval rating of 43%, with 55% of respondents disapproving of his performance. Vice President Kamala Harris has a slightly higher approval rating of 50%, with 48% disapproving. These mixed ratings underscore the challenges facing the Democratic Party as it aims to retain control of the White House.

Voters were split on the overall success of the Biden administration, with 46% rating it as a success and 52% considering it a failure. Despite the nation’s challenges, voter enthusiasm remains high. The poll indicates that 89% of respondents are highly motivated to vote in the November 2024 election, and 77% describe themselves as “extremely motivated.”

One of the most notable findings from the poll is the tight race between the two leading candidates. In a hypothetical matchup between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, the poll shows a near tie, with 49% of respondents supporting Trump and 48% backing Harris — this, after an entire month of overwhelmingly positive coverage for her and similarly negative coverage for him. When rating their likelihood of voting for Trump on a scale from 0 to 10, respondents gave him an average score of 4.70. Harris received a slightly higher average score of 4.95.

A notable Democratic strategist and former adviser to then-President Bill Clinton scolded members of his party during an interview this week as the Democratic National Committee launched in Chicago on Monday. Carville cautioned Democrats against becoming too confident about Vice President Kamala Harris’s prospects, noting that former President Donald Trump has historically exceeded his polling averages.

Trump currently holds a 0.1% lead over Harris in the seven key battleground states, while Harris has a 1.5% national lead over Trump, according to RealClearPolitics averages. On “The Lead with Jake Tapper,” Carville highlighted potential challenges for Harris, particularly pointing out Trump’s tendency to outperform his poll numbers.

“Democrats are feeling better. It’s undeniable … I see the polls and I remind people of a couple of things, Jake. First of all, most quants, and they’re better at this than I am, say that the vice president would have to win almost by three points in the popular vote to win the Electoral College,” Carville told host Jake Tapper. “And I also would point out that when President Trump runs, he overperforms his polling averages. He did it in 2016. The national polls were actually pretty spot-on, but they didn’t pull weight in the states.”

“And then they pulled weight in the states in 2020, and you would have thought he was going to win these states by eight points. He didn’t. President Biden did no such thing … People need to have some reality infused in their optimism,” he continued. “I’m glad that people are feeling better. I’m glad that people are excited. But anybody that looks at this with any sense of history, any sense of objectivity, sees that there’s plenty of possible pitfalls that we’re faced with. And we need to acknowledge that and stop being giddy all the time.”

She should drop out the entire democratic party is beginning to realize that she can’t win, at least not honestly!!
