Exclusive: Harris leads Trump 44% to 42% in US presidential race, Reuters/Ipsos poll finds

[SweetSue92]

Well, this does explain why Biden dropped out, Harris appears to be far more competitive:

Vice President Kamala Harris opened up a marginal two-percentage-point lead over Republican Donald Trump after President Joe Biden ended his re-election campaign and passed the torch to her, a Reuters/Ipsos poll found.
That compares with a marginal two-point deficit Biden faced against Trump in last week's poll before his Sunday exit from the race.
The new poll, conducted on Monday and Tuesday, followed both the Republican National Convention where Trump on Thursday formally accepted the nomination and Biden's announcement on Sunday he was leaving the race and endorsing Harris.

Harris, whose campaign says she has secured the Democratic nomination, led Trump 44% to 42% in the national poll, a difference within the 3-percentage-point margin of error.
Harris and Trump were tied at 44% in a July 15-16 poll, and Trump led by one percentage point in a July 1-2 poll, both within the same margin of error.
While nationwide surveys give important signals of American support for political candidates, a handful of competitive states typically tilt the balance in the U.S. Electoral College, which ultimately decides who wins a presidential election.

A pollster with Trump's campaign played down any polling showing an increase in Harris' support, arguing that she was likely to see a temporary rise in popularity because of widespread media coverage of her new candidacy.
"That bump is likely to start showing itself over the next few days and will last for a while," pollster Tony Fabrizio said in a memo circulated to reporters by Trump's campaign.
Candidates often expect a bump after formally accepting their party's nomination at stage-managed, televised conventions such as the one that Trump had last week. But the poll showed no sign of that.

Bump or not, the most recent Reuters/Ipsos poll underscored the rationale for Biden dropping out of the race and for Harris replacing him on the ticket.

Dems are falling all over themselves for her and she only got TWO POINTS?

Just....two?

Oops

OP, the President graciously bowed out of the race because he was CONVINCED he had no path to victory.

That's all, but carry on.

/----/ He was forced out. BTW, Joy says you better fall in line and stay on the democRAT plantation. Otherwise, you look weird, lonley and crazy.
MSNBC host Joy Reid said on Tuesday that Black people will look "real weird" if they do not vote for presumptive Democratic nominee Kamala Harris in November.

"Given just the stratospheric entrance of Vice President Kamala Harris into the presidential campaign, and she has now secured enough delegates to become the nominee, you’re going to look real crazy being on the other side of that line, particularly as a person of color, but really as anyone who claims to have any connection to the culture," Reid said in a video posted on her TikTok account.

"You’re going to look real weird and real lonely on that side," she added. "You're really going to look crazy being on that side given the cultural phenomenon of Vice President Kamala Devi Harris. She's about to make history. She's about to become the first woman president."

Show us the video or admit that you`re lying.

I posted the vid. Where is your comment?

 

[IM2]

Do you really think we're this fucking stupid?

We've been watching this worthless bitch do nothing for almost 4 years and you think that a lot of gushing sycophantic leftist talking-heads are going to erase our memories.

Pence didn't do shit for 4 years. Neither did Bien, Cheney, Gore, Quayle, Bush1, Mondale, Agnew, I can keep going. So just shut your racist ass up.

 

[Cellblock2429]

AND it's a crime to post any imagery of children being molested so I don't know what you were hoping ton achieve in posting that video but ....

Well I'll let you figure it out.

/----/ Then why did you request a video?

Maybe it's because Biden has been caught on camera molesting little girls. Even some Dem-Marxists will disapprove, even though they don't have the guts to say it publicly.

You can stop this nonsense. You have nothing to gain from it and we are sick of you nonsense.

He wasn't forced out.

/----/ You know he was. Even the Lame Stream Media says so:

Biden's decision to withdraw from the reelection campaign came in the wake of repeated White House statements, and declarations from Biden himself, that he would remain in the race and was confident that he could defeat former President Donald Trump's reelection bid. Yet those assurances did little to decrease the public pressure from an increasing number of his fellow Democrats for Biden to move aside in favor of a stronger candidate.

Some 48 hours after Biden, who is recovering from COVID-19, said he would return to the stump this week, the pressure from those in his own party for him to withdraw from the race continued to mount.
https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/live-updates/biden-drops-out-updates/?id=112113289
Not only did the list of Democratic congressional members echoing the call for Biden to withdraw grow to at least 40, staunch Biden supporters like Sen. Joe Manchin, I-W.Va., upped their public calls for the 81-year-old president to end his presidential campaign.

What pushed President Biden to withdraw from the reelection race?

Just two days after announcing he was prepared to return to the campaign trail, President Joe Biden announced Sunday that he is dropping out of the presidential race.
