Vice President Kamala Harris opened up a marginal two-percentage-point lead over Republican Donald Trump after President Joe Biden ended his re-election campaign and passed the torch to her, a Reuters/Ipsos poll found.
The poll, conducted on Monday and Tuesday, followed both the Republican National Convention where Trump on Thursday formally accepted his party's nomination and the Biden announcement on Sunday he was leaving the race and endorsing Harris.
Harris, whose campaign says she has secured the Democratic nomination, led Trump 44% to 42% in the national poll, a difference within the 3-percentage-point margin of error.
Harris and Trump were tied at 44% in a July 15-16 poll, and Trump led by one percentage point in a July 1-2 poll, both within the same margin of error. ***
The most recent poll showed 56% of registered voters agreed with a statement that Harris, 59, was "mentally sharp and able to deal with challenges," compared to 49% who said the same of Trump, 78.

Any poll of registered voters has bias toward the Democrat candidate.
It won’t be like Reagan and Carter. For Trump to win a fixed election (and the attempt will be made), it has to be unbelievable that Kamala will win to almost the entire country. From what I know, that is the only way to stop the cheating this time around. Otherwise, they’ll just orchestrate a bigger bump in the middle of the night.
“WOW. I’m shocked!! 1 day after she’s selected she’s suddenly a rock star. Trust me this is her audition. If she fails in the next 3 weeks, she will be replaced at the convention. The Dems get multiple bites of the apple.”

She’s way past an audition by the Dems. She’ll be the nominee, and already has enough pledged delegates for the nomination locked up. She also has the Democrat $$ locked up now.
We should be focused on fundamental election strategy and work every day between now and the election.
Good thing we don’t elect presidents by popular vote then. Check back with me when Harris is ahead in Georgia and Pennsylvania that don’t like California liberals and their values.
Reuters, next.
She is speaking at a rally in Wisconsin right now, on fire about being a prosecutor against a criminal ...
Buckle up!

Even if this poll is accurate and Harris is ahead by two nationally, Trump still wins because of the Electoral College.
He would be smart not to debate her. She’s not going to look like an idiot in a debate. She has a lot of experience debating.
There are thousands heading to our southern border right now. They want to get here before Trump closes the border.
I have family in El Paso. You have no idea what your life will look like when the thousands fill all the states and you live among them.. they terrorize and kill.. they come from countries where they were in prisons or were sent to tear down our United States...
We have so much “dumb” in our midst... makes me angry and sad at the seme time.
Reuters/Ipsos have shown a Biden +2 for a while. They were the pollster giving Biden a lead. Their July 2 measurement was Biden +2, unchanged, indicating no debate impact.
Repeat — the Dems must be +4.5% to move the Battlegrounds to essentially even — per 2020.
Exactly. This is all staged to make it look like Kam has energized the base. Wait until she stumbles through her first presser
Anything even remotely close to this poll would indicate the election is as good as stolen once again.
The steal may be back on.
“Wait until she stumbles through her first presser.”
I hate to be be cynical but her handlers know what a train wreck she is and they’ll minimize pressers. If they have to hold one, it will be tightly scripted and worse yet, the media will play along with it. They’ll edit out the word salad answers along with the annoying cackles.
The MSM did the same for Biden. Why wouldn’t they do the same for Harris?
So, in other words, Reuters just made up the numbers.
Yahoo. LOL.
Anything from Yahoo is fake news.
“They” have to find a VEEP for KamelToe that is even dumber than she is. This will be a challenge.
