NBC poll predicts shocker for Kamala Harris, numbers indicate popularity decline after a fall in 5 point lead

[slothe]

The latest NBC News poll has revealed a significant decline in Vice
President Kamala Harris' popularity. In the October poll she and
former President Donald Trump are locked in a tight race three weeks
before Election Day. After her summertime boost, soon after taking
over the Democrat campaign, Harris' favourability has dropped with a
huge margin compared to the previous month.

The slide got faster after her latest public babbling.

“As summer has turned to fall, any signs of momentum for Kamala
Harris have stopped,” stated Jeff Horwitt, a Democratic pollster who
conducted the survey alongside Republican pollster Bill McInturff. The
results show a dramatic shift: in September, Harris had a 5-point lead
over Trump, but that advantage has evaporated, leaving the two
candidates tied at 48% each among registered voters.
The poll indicates a shift in voter sentiment, with concerns mounting
that Harris represents continuity with President Joe Biden rather than
change. This perception, coupled with a more favourable view of
Trump’s previous term among voters, has helped Trump close the gap.

She couldn't win a debate against a 12-year-old.

McInturff notes that Harris faces "headwinds" as voters see her as
asking for another term from the incumbent party, while Trump benefits
from a positive reassessment of his past presidency.
Additionally, Harris' approval rating has taken a hit, dropping to 43%
positive and 49% negative, a net rating of -6. This is a significant
shift from last month’s poll, where her positive rating was 48%
against a 45% negative, giving her a +3 net rating at that time. The
decline in favorability comes primarily from independents and younger
voters—key demographics Harris needs to retain support from.
The poll also highlights a deep gender gap between the candidates.
While Harris maintains a 14-point lead among women, Trump holds a
16-point advantage among men. Both candidates face challenges in
securing support from independent voters, with many still undecided or
unwilling to back either candidate.
As the race tightens, the next few weeks will be crucial for Harris to
reverse her declining popularity and solidify support, especially
among key voter groups. Meanwhile, Trump seeks to leverage his
regained momentum to tip the balance in his favor.
