According to a Thursday New York Times/Siena College poll, most registered voters think former President Donald Trump “will bring about the right kind of change” for the country.
Trump’s campaign focuses on revitalizing the economy, increasing American jobs, securing the southern border, and averting World War III.
“I am running to be president for all of America, not half of America, because there is no victory in winning for half of America,” Trump said in Milwaukee during his RNC acceptance speech.
Just 47 percent of registered voters expressed similar confidence in Vice President Kamala Harris, who was also rated as a much weaker “strong leader” compared to Trump.
Sixty percent of registered voters view Trump as a strong leader, whereas only 46 percent think the same of Harris.
The poll indicates Trump is ahead of Harris by two points, suggesting that Harris might be experiencing a “honeymoon” period in her early presidential campaign.
The poll, conducted from July 22 to 24 with a sample of 1,142 registered voters, has a margin of error of 3.3 points.
Kamala Harris is effectively the Democratic nominee after President Joe Biden endorsed her and stepped aside.
This week’s YouGov/The Times poll reveals that 54 percent of registered voters believe Biden’s health was covered up, with 92 percent of those respondents holding Harris at least partially responsible.
A recent Economist/YouGov poll shows that only 39 percent of registered independents consider Harris “qualified” to be president.
According to an Emerson College Polling/The Hill survey released Thursday, Trump leads Harris in five swing states and is tied with her in Wisconsin.
- Arizona: Trump 49%, Harris 44%
- Georgia: Trump 48%, Harris 46%
- Michigan: Trump 46%, Harris 45%
- Pennsylvania: Trump 48%, Harris 46%
- Wisconsin: Trump 47%, Harris 47%
Brat Summer or not, I looked into whether Harris has unique appeal to young voters. She doesn't. She's doing much worse against Trump than Biden did in 2020.

Moreover, young Democrats are NOT disproportionately more motivated to vote than other Democrats because of Biden's exit pic.twitter.com/WpH5Sf4vPE
