NBC Polling Analyst Says Kamala Harris’ 5-Point Advantage in Previous Poll is Gone
NBC national political correspondent Steve Kornacki noted that some polling numbers for Vice President Kamala Harris have “completely reversed” in recent days. Harris was once touted by many of her supporters as the inevitable winner of the 2024 election, but with less than a month before the election, the race appears to be a dead heat. NBC “Today” host Savannah Guthrie discussed how recent polling shows the race “deadlocked.” Guthrie then did a deep dive on the numbers with Kornacki and said, “I mean, the top line is the 5-point advantage that Kamala Harris had in our last poll is gone. What’s behind that shift?” Kornacki agreed, contrasting previous polling that took place after the first Trump-Harris debate versus now, amid Harris’ media blitz. The polling showed Trump had risen from 44% to 48%, whereas Harris had declined from 49% to 48%.
