Democratic strategist James Carville said Tuesday that Vice President Harris is more likely than former President Trump to win November’s election by a substantial margin. Carville told MSNBC's Ari Melber on Tuesday that while he could see Trump narrowly winning the election, if someone wins by more than a “little bit,” it would be the...
Trump needs to get out there and visit those success stories to remind Americans that they were better off when he was president and will be again if they turn out and vote for him this year.
Democrats selected former Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner (D) to serve as the party’s nominee for the November election to succeed the late Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas). Turner prevailed in a local party meeting of precinct chairs who chose the candidate who will be the nominee to represent Texas’s 18th Congressional District. Jackson Lee had...
Former President Clinton's White House strategist Paul Begala says former President Trump’s stream of insults against Vice President Harris is “nutty at best and racist at worst” as a campaign strategy, as the vice president closes the polling gap, seizing on momentum. “He’s an insult comic,” Begala said Tuesday in a CNN interview. “That’s what...
Vice President Harris is leading or tied with former President Trump in six of seven battleground states as she continues to transform the 2024 race after President Biden's exit last month, according to a poll released Wednesday. The survey from the Cook Political Report Swing State Project showed Harris with an overall 1-point lead over Trump across...
The House Homeland Security Committee is investigating the pause of the Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela parole program, saying they are "deeply concerned" by revelations.
A new poll has found that American adults view Vice President Kamala Harris as a more honest person than former President Trump, but are less likely to trust her when it comes to handling key issues such as the economy and immigration.
The AP-NORC survey of 1,164 adults revealed that around 4 in 10 say "honest" better describes Harris, compared to 24% for Trump. About 4 in 10 respondents also say Harris is someone who "cares about people like you," compared to around 3 in 10 saying that about Trump.
Yet when it comes to the economy, 45% of those surveyed said they believe Trump is more likely to do a better job handling it, compared to 38% for Harris, according to The Associated Press. A similar difference was reported on the topic of immigration, while independent voters are nearly twice as likely to trust Trump over Harris on handling economic issues.
Harris has more of an advantage over Trump when it comes to handling issues related to race and racial inequality, abortion policy, and health care.
Roughly half of U.S. adults say Harris would do a better job than Trump handling each of those issues, compared with about 3 in 10 for Trump. Harris is especially strong among Democrats, independents and women on the issue of abortion policy.
About two-thirds of Democrats also say they are "excited," describing either extremely well or very well how they would feel if Harris were to be elected.
The enthusiasm represents a sharp reversal from when Biden was the Democrats’ candidate: an AP-NORC poll from March found that only 4 in 10 Democrats said "excited" would describe their feelings extremely or very well if he won another term.
