As I wrote on Monday, the media has been replete with stories about Kamala Harris closing the gap on Donald Trump, and in many cases taking the lead over the former president. As I pointed out, Trump’s base has remained solid, begging the question: Who’s fueling Kamala’s rise in polls across the country?
Prior to the start of the Democrat National Convention on Monday, “Fox News Sunday” host Shannon Bream ran through the latest batch of battleground state polls from the New York Times/Siena College for her guest, Republican vice presidential nominee, Senator JD Vance of Ohio.
The polls showed Harris leading Trump by 5 points in Arizona and by 2 points in North Carolina. Bream also referenced two new, national surveys, from ABC News/Washington Post and CBS News, showing Harris ahead by 4 points and 3 points in the states, respectively.
Asked by Bream to comment, Vance replied:
Consistently, what you’ve seen in 2016 and 2020 is that the media uses fake polls to drive down Republican turnout and to create dissension and conflict with Republican voters. I’m telling you, every single person who’s watching this, the Trump campaign is in a very, very good spot. We’re going to win this race. We just have to run through the finish line.
Kamala is not gaining on Trump. It is all lies hoping more people will join the losers group
The problem with polls / pollsters is this. The poll numbers ALWAYS hinges on who is conducting the poll and where. If the people / media outlets are left leaning ( democrats ) , the poll numbers will be in favor of who they want to show better. This goes the same for right leaning ( republicans ) poll numbers. also.
And it also varies greatly from poll to poll.
