[Rasmussen] Election 2024: Trump 49%, Harris 44%, RFK Jr. 3%
Rasmussen Reports ^ | August 8, 2024 | Rasmussen Reports

Posted on 08/08/2024 9:52:01 AM PDT by BlueStateRightist

Former President Donald Trump has maintained his lead over Vice President Kamala Harris, and support for Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s independent campaign continues to decline.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that, in a two-way matchup, 49% of Likely U.S. Voters would vote for Trump, while 44% would vote for Harris. Four percent (4%) say they’d vote for some other candidate and three percent (3%) are undecided. These findings are nearly unchanged from a week ago, which was the second survey since President Joe Biden announced he would withdraw his reelection bid.

How reliable is Rasmussen? In the past few years, it seems to me to be overly optimistic for Republicans.

What is her platform?

1. Open borders 2. Free healthcare for illegals 3. Abolish private healthcare 4. End ICE vehicles 5. Sex changes for all children ages 1-17 with no parental consent required. 6. Transgender male-to-female in women's sports. Just a sample.

Rumor and inuendo swirling around Walz and his, a-hem, sexual persuasion.

Hard to believe we have so many idiots in the USA.
I’m referring to Democrats.

Trump just put his out this week. Time claimed to have his platform weeks ago which they “helpfully” interpreted for us. So far, nothing from kababble. Or is it kablabla? I can never keep track of what she is or is for from day to day.

Somebody needs to dig into why he left coaching in Nebraska.

What? First I’ve heard of it. However, love is love and should be celebrated, so I’d like to hear a lot more

It will change.

The Harris / Walz campaign just began and it’s already on the ropes getting pounded left and right.

They’ve got nowhere to go but down.

Harris refuses to answer questions or face reporters.
Biden got away with it, mostly because of Covid, but also because he’s been around for 50 years.
Harris is completely untested, and refuses to face scrutiny.
She won’t get away with hiding from the public or reporters. Even democrat talking heads know this, like Van Jones on CNN.

And the more the voters find out about Walz the less and less they like him.
He’s a verifiable nutcase, a liar and a coward, and he’s to the left of Karl Marx on every issue. He’s just plain batshit crazy, and an unbelievably poor choice, even for a novice like Harris.

A candidate for the most powerful position on planet earth simply cannot be someone with such incredibly poor judgement as Kamala.

No amount of pimping for abortion or homosexuality will be able to overcome the numbers that will be coming out next week or next month.

It won’t be just a few percentage points that separates them, either.

I think RFK Jr will ultimately drop out and endorse Trump.
He’ll end up as an ambassador somewhere nice.

I think democrats and the Swamp have taken their best shots since 2015 to stop Trump and it hasn’t worked.

How would you like love to be “celebrated”?]

This would translate into an electoral college wipeout reminiscent of Bush-Dukakis. Not likely. More likely is somewhere between Trump plus 2 and Harris plus 2. He wins EC with PA, WI OR MI, plus the entire sunbelt (Harris must win PA, WI AND MI or somehow win PA, GA and AZ).

What the polls steadily showed most of the year pre-debate was Trump by a nose, which is good enough to win. Ignore the recent hype. In other words, if Biden hadn't made his admittedly stupid mistake in debating Trump, it would still be Trump by a nose over Biden, same as it will be with Harris, post-convention lovefest bump.

If these reports are true, why discussing it endlessly of course! That’s how everyone in the lgbqtrz$&! Community celebrates their love, by never shutting the hell up about. So if it’s true about Walz, then let’s talk about it- a lot.

Rasmussen is NOT what it once was, anymore it should be considered a right wing advocacy organization... sadly. The original guy sold it and the new guys are just pundits more than anything.

More nonsense polls. Trump up 5, Harris Up 7, Trump up 2, Harris up 5. Tell me you have no idea what’s happening without telling me you have no idea what’s happening.
