At Newsmax, Nick Koutsobinas reports that Donald Trump is ahead of Kamala Harris by six points. He writes:
Former President Donald Trump holds a 6-point lead over Vice President Kamala Harris in The Hill’s latest average polling.
As of Sunday, The Hill’s latest average of polls puts Harris at 36.9% and Trump at 42.6%. Independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who was also named in the poll, currently sits at 5.8%.
Notably, Harris’ favorability sits at 37.7% as of Sunday, with an unfavorability rating of 55.5%.
“Her favorability nationally mirrors Biden’s — it’s not great,” Scott Tranter, director of data science at Decision Desk HQ, said last week. “Her upside, though, is she doesn’t have all the baggage Biden has, and voters are going to take a fresh look at her.”
“I don’t expect the polling to show that she is outright beating Trump, but she’s going to have a whole campaign and a fresh start, not going to have to answer questions about whether she’s mentally there to serve,” he added.
Following the news Sunday that President Joe Biden has dropped out of the race, Harris now faces an uphill battle to secure the nearly 3,800 delegates that pledged support to Biden in the primary. Biden’s delegates are not bound to support Harris.
