The Hill reports on a CNN poll that came out yesterday. In it, Trump has narrowed the margin by which voters say they prefer Biden, it is now just barely misses being within the margin of error.
Biden leads Trump by just 4 points, with Biden at 50 percent and Trump at 46 percent, according to a CNN poll released Sunday. That marks a significant shift since the poll was last conducted in June, when the Democrat led Trump by 14 points, with Biden at 55 percent and Trump at 41.
And where is the bounce Biden was supposed to get from announcing his VP pick? Answer: there was no bounce, if anything he got a dip.
Meanwhile, Steven Hayward of Power Line quotes National Review's Jim Geraghty as follows:
The CBS News survey asked, “if Joe Biden is elected President but cannot finish his term, do you think Kamala Harris would be qualified to serve as President, if necessary, or not?” Unsurprisingly, 91 percent of Democrats said yes, 85 percent of Republicans said no, but the numbers among independents might worry the Biden-Harris campaign – 45 percent of independents said “yes,” 55 percent said “no.”
Remember, when Harris dropped out of the race for the Democrat presidential nomination, her national poll numbers stood at 2%. It was likely the reason she withdrew. Charisma isn't her strong suit.
