Kamala Harris Overtakes Donald Trump, Gains 23 Points: Poll
News? Weak. ^ | Aug 7, 8, 2024 | Jordan King

Kamala Harris has gained 23 points in a new poll, with a surge that pushed her 9 points ahead of Donald Trump.

The poll questioning independents, carried out by NPRS/PBS News/Marist, found that 53 percent of voters who identified as belonging to this group supported Harris and 44 percent backed Trump.

This 9-point lead is a huge jump from the 14 points by which she was down in Marist's July poll, which found 46 percent of independents for Trump and 32 percent for Harris.

The August survey, published on Tuesday, was carried out among 1,613 adults between August 1 and August 4 and has a disclaimed margin of error of plus or minus 3.4 percentage points. The July survey questioning 1,309 adults was carried out on July 22 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.

“Well, when you launder a trillion dollars through Ukraine, you can afford ads everywhere.”

And even if you can’t afford it... you beg, borrow and steal enough to keep you out of GITMO (they hope).

Well that settles it, I’m going with a winner and jumping on the Harris/Walz bandwagon! Totalitarian communism, here we come!

“Give them another week and we will be reading how Harris has 99% of the vote already and a 90% chance of winning the white house.

The democrat media wing makes Pravda look credible and Baghdad Bob accurate.”

They have to set it up like this so the gaslighting they’re doing will make the next election steal look legit.

This is complete bullshit the media is pulling on us trying to make people believe Malaka is actually a worthwhile alternative to Trump. The same BS they did in 2016 and 2020.

Why is he so self-sabotaging? I almost had a leftist talked into supporting him, then he comes out with this thing about Willie Brown and the helicopter, which of course Brown denies. WHY???

I will feel bad for Trump if he loses this election, but worse for us, the American people, who will have to put up with all this communism from Harris et al. Why can’t Trump just shut it?

After the Biden-Trump debate, there is no statement, no poll result, no conclusion that can be believed from any media outlet. As nearly all media is leftist and in the tank for Democrats, there is keen competition for clicks. Mere reporting of facts does not generate clicks.

But perhaps more important, as Democrat apologists - who knows who’s funding them - they are bombarding the airwaves with the inevitability of Harris, much the same way they bombarded us with the inevitability of H Clinton.

The 2016 election should remind us all that lies repeated over and over again are still lies, and most Americans do not accept these obvious attempts of brainwashing inevitability nor will they be deterred from ignoring them and seeking truth.

July 22.

Did they show M/F and D/R weighting or crosstabs?

The August survey, published on Tuesday, was carried out among 1,613 adults


Not likely voters
Not registered voters
Adults - (incl illegals) - are those adults limited to USA geography? Maybe they just polled those people at the UN building in NYC?

Garbage to generate a headline

They drop a Poll like this to game the Real Clear Politics average.

You have identified my only criticism about the Best President In My Lifetime: His mouth (fingers?).

He is so caught up in Smash Mouth Politics that he just cannot seem to reign it in.

It almost sounded like an outrageous Bee headline. Maybe the Bee will run with it.
