Kamala Harris Suffers Double Poll Blow Against Donald Trump

In a recent poll conducted both nationally and in Georgia, the Vice President Kamala Harris trails former President Donald Trump.

CNBC/All-America Economic’s survey of 1,000 U.S. adults reveals that Harris is two points behind her Republican opponent in the 2024 elections (48 percent to 48). The margin of error is small, but Trump’s lead remains unchanged since the July poll when Biden was still running (45 percent to 44).

A survey by AARP Research of 1,254 likely Georgia voters showed that Trump beat Harris by two points (46 to 44 percent) on a presidential ballot with independent candidates Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Cornel West and Jill Stein.

The AARP Research survey shows that Trump and Harris have 48 percent each in a head-to-head ballot. Georgia is a key battleground state that both Trump, and Harris, hope to win during the November election.

The CNBC/All-America Economic Survey pollsters found that Harris’ campaign is gaining momentum, and she has a lot of enthusiasm. Biden was not experiencing this.

The survey found that 81 percent of Democrats were satisfied with Harris’s nomination for 2024, while only 33 percent said the same about Biden.

Harris has now surpassed Biden in the preference of younger voters by 10 percentage points. Trump was 2 points ahead of Biden in CNBC’s poll conducted in July.

CNBC reported that Micah Roberts was the Republican pollster for the survey.

Jay Campbell, partner at Hart Research and Democratic pollster for the CNBC study, stated that Harris was still “carrying water for the Administration” and needed to define her campaign before November.

Campbell stated that “that’s a ton of baggage when you have a limited timeframe against a mature Trump campaign.”

Newsweek contacted Harris and Trump’s campaign via email to get their comments.

The AARP Research Poll shows that Harris is overwhelmingly supported by Black voters in the full-ballot survey (78%) which could be crucial in the swing state, where 30% of the population is Black.
