Harris holds commanding 10-point lead over Trump in Virginia: poll

With just four days to Election Day, Vice President Kamala Harris holds a commanding 10-point lead over former President Trump in Virginia among likely voters, according to a new poll by Roanoke College.

The Trump campaign is hoping to flip the Old Dominion State red after losing in 2016 and 2020, with the former president making a last-minute stop in Salem on Saturday for a campaign rally. No Republican presidential candidate has won Virginia since former President George W. Bush's re-election in 2004.

Only 2% of likely voters say they are undecided and another 2% say they will vote for someone other than the five candidates on the ballot, according to the poll.

Harris leads Trump by 51% to 41%, with independent Cornel West and Libertarian Chase Oliver both polling at 2%. Green Party candidate Jill Stein is polling at 1%.

The economy was named as the most important issue by 43% of respondents, followed by abortion (20%) and immigration (12%). Foreign affairs (8%) came in next, followed by crime (3%).

In the U.S. Senate race, Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., leads his Republican challenger Hung Cao by 51% to 40%.

The poll interviewed 851 likely registered voters in Virginia from Oct. 25-29 and has a margin of error of 4.6%.

Several polls out of the state have shown Harris with a comfortable lead over former President Trump since President Biden withdrew from the ticket and Harris clinched the Democratic Party’s nomination.

Push poll. If you live in VA, ignore the polls and vote!

“Push poll. If you live in VA, ignore the polls and vote!”

I agree. From what I have been reading, this poll is definitely out in Left field.

Gaslighting by the media, both left and those posing as the right (FOX News). The energy, enthusiasm, and confidence of the Trump campaign is noticeable whereas the gloominess and desperation of the Harris campaign and the media is very telling.

43% saying the economy is the top priority does not support the suggested result. 20% with abortion as top priority is Harris.

What is actually unbelievable is that she has a 30pt lead in CA, a 20 pt lead in NY, a 15pts lead in IL, a 10 pt lead in VA, tied in all the battleground states, down 5 in Texas, 7 in Florida and still tied nationally. That wouldn’t work by those numbers. Where is Trump making up those votes?

I’m seeing a shift in my blue state from Democrat to Republican.

Rasmussen has the Hyena up by only 2, far within the margin of error. Trump could easily win VA.

One poll reported Biden +17 in WI in 2020. Ignore these polls, especially the lesser known ones. Harris is likely +2 or +3 in VA.

Donald Trump has a *LEGIT* chance of winning Virginia major poll reveals. Virginia +2 latest poll. Polls always under estimate Trump. This is a push poll.

I generally accepted the understanding that polls for the most part tightened up and became more accurate towards election day. But due to the apparent desperation of the Democrat Left and those pollsters allied with them, perhaps they continue to “push” poll, risking any reputation for accuracy. We may well see a lot of strange things from now on.

Let’s face it Trump hasn’t done any campaigning in Virginia.
We can hope.

The 2500 registration we went to the USSC to have removed won’t mean much, it’s not a lot of votes on a deep blue state.

PA is where it’s at. The cheat there will be huge, we’ve only scratched the surface.

The polls are total garbage at this point.

Even the California number is just dumb.

Here is the CA early vote at this point:

https://election.lab.ufl.edu/early-vote/2024-early-voting/2024-general-election-early-vote-california/

Harris has a twenty point lead in CA—and that is with early voters.

That lead is going to go down not up as Republicans are more likely to vote on election day.

This article explains:

https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2024/10/24/american-voters-expectations-for-voting-this-year/

There is no way Harris will win CA by more than 60-40.

Agreed—President Trump has a definite chance of taking VA.

He was never expected to win NY, CA and IL. If battlegrounds are “tied”, he’s probably up slightly as he is often undercounted. Therefore, if he wins the states he’s expected to, and she wins the ones she’s expected to, and he and takes the majority of battleground states, he wins. Doesn’t matter if he gets zero votes in CA, NY and IL, which will not happen, but even if he loses those states by 50 points, that does not affect the EV from what was already expected.
