October 2024 Tracking National Poll: Harris 49%, Trump 48%
Emerson College ^ | 1/18/2024 | Staff

Posted on 10/18/2024 5:45:18 PM PDT by thegagline

This week’s Emerson College Polling national survey finds 49% of voters support Vice President Kamala Harris, while 48% support former president Donald Trump for president in 2024. One percent of voters plan to support someone other than the major party nominees on the ballot, and two percent are undecided. When undecided voters are asked which candidate they lean toward, Harris’s overall support increases to 50%, and Trump’s to 49%.

“Women and male voters break in near opposite directions: men for Trump, 56% to 42%, and women for Harris, 55% to 41%” Spencer Kimball, executive director of Emerson College Polling, said. “Hispanic voters break for Harris, 61% to 35% and. Black voters 81% to 12%, while white voters break for Trump 60% to 38%.”

*** “Voters who made their decision on who to support over a month ago break for Trump, 52% to 48%, while voters who made up their mind in the last month or week break for Harris, 60% to 36%,” Kimball said. “The three percent of voters who said they could still change their mind currently favor Harris, 48% to 43%.”

On the generic congressional ballot, 48% plan to vote for the Democratic candidate while 45% support the Republican candidate. Seven percent are undecided.

Kamala Harris holds a 53% favorable rating, while 47% have an unfavorable view of the vice president. Donald Trump holds a 49% favorable rating, while 51% have an unfavorable view of the former president.

A plurality of voters (38%) find the economy to be the most important issue facing the nation, followed by immigration (16%), threats to democracy (13%), abortion access (9%), healthcare (7%), housing affordability (6%), and crime (4%).

Women, blacks, and Hispanics are heavily favoring Harris.

Elsewhere, I’ve read that the early voting turnout in North Carolina has broken records. Generally, in the past, early voting favors Democrats. Time will tell.

early voting favors cheating. Since we didn’t deal with this after the 2020 steal we are about to deal with this BS again.

I don’t know a single person voting for Harris. Usually I know many voting for the Democrat candidate. Yet the polls are so similar every year.

Mostly good news here.

Poll moved one point towards Trump since last time.

A one point national vote victory for Harris would all but guarantee an Electoral College win for Trump.

Arizona has had mail in voting since the 1990s. It has voted for the Republican president candidate 5 out of 6 times since then, and the margin for Biden was 0.3% - even though Biden outspent Trump 2:1 during the campaign.

I’ve voted already.

FWIW, Arizona switched to mail in ballots because it favored REPUBICANS.

There is a .pdf from the BoE.

Items — Males are early voting as a ratio to females far in excess of the female 6% registration advantage.

Black registration is about 20%. This is down 3% from 2020.

Independents are 38% of Registered voters. Big number.

So if CA,NY,IL,WA,OR,MA and a few others are now margins of 25% for the Dems, then Harris is in trouble. He can win 7 swing states by 1% and win it all.

“The popular vote doesn’t elect the President, the Electoral College does” means she is sinking.

Hope that’s true.

I’m betting they’ve selected a group that gives them the results they want, and they keep using the same, biased group. It isn’t hard to find “registered Republicans” who dislike Trump, especially if you’re looking in states like CA, NY, and IL.

I sadly pass maybe 20 Harris lawn signs in this cesspool of evil that is my town in Southeastern Michigan.

I honestly saw one “count it”—one—bumper sticker for Trump.
In the past month.

As a point of reference, the final Emerson poll in 2020 had Biden with 51% of the vote and Trump with 47% of the vote.

The 2020 election results: Biden 51.3%; Trump 46.9%.

That you know of.

Don’t be surprised if you hear about vans full of Trump ballots post election night.
A little bird told me it’ll be “all the rage” in the democrat information bubble.

“Trump didn’t win, we was robbed by the Broligarchs and Putin”- leftwing nutjob going down a rabbit hole.
