Sometimes it is lonely being an independent pollster with integrity.
Trump is beating Kamala Harris.
Just like he was beating Biden (remember the numbers said she polled worse than him for four years?) pic.twitter.com/tyulyRslBI— Rasmussen Reports (@Rasmussen_Poll) August 8, 2024
Trump is beating Harris IN the honeymoon period. As Jeb Bush used to say, this is a BIG DEAL!
In Washington, it is said that no polls are meaningful until Labor Day. Voters tend not to focus on the choice between the two candidates until summer is over.
The polls moved? Or the electorate moved?
Polls are not really trying to move the electorate, but they can be paid to move fundraising. Campaign staff cares about fundraising (their salaries) far more than they care about winning.
Minds do not change. Nothing has happened to change them.
Whatever lead you think Trump had 3 weeks ago, or you think Harris/Biden had 3 weeks ago, that has not changed.
The most powerful indicator I have seen in the past month came out today. Trump is campaigning in Montana — to grab a Senate seat.
That’s a day not in a Battleground. This is powerful.
