Roughly three-quarters of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents said Vice President Kamala Harris should be nominated for the top of their ticket in November, according to the latest PBS News/NPR/Marist poll.
Harris’ campaign is younger than most of my groceries, while the next generation has been born and mastered sarcasm in the shadow of Trump’s seemingly endless campaign. Being tied this early should be devastating news for 45.
You and me both. The way the whole party has coalesced around Harris is a happy surprise. There has been so much infighting for so long and Kamala wasn’t really mentioned in all the push to remove Biden, and there was no consensus around anyone. I was sure it would be nothing but infighting until the convention and then begrudging acceptance.
Exactly. Democrats are falling in line and that’s to be expected. They already voted for her as VP, so they should have no objection to her as President.
But independents and swing voters should still be undecided on her. Some might lean slightly towards her because she is younger and not a senile fascist, but overall, it should not be expected that they will support her at this stage.

Especially since Harris isn’t exactly the most beloved figure in the dem world, if there even is such a thing at the moment.
I’ll readily admit I was in the camp of thinking that Biden dropping now would be suicide. I am very happy to have been proven wrong so far.

I couldn’t be happier to be wrong.

Polling in September will be more accurate.
