WASHINGTON, Sept 24 (Reuters) - Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris leads Republican Donald Trump 47% to 40% in the race to win the Nov. 5 U.S. presidential election, as she appeared to blunt Trump's edge on the economy and jobs, a Reuters/Ipsos poll published on Tuesday found.
Harris had a lead of six percentage points based on unrounded figures - which showed her with support from 46.61% of registered voters while Trump was backed by 40.48%, according to the three-day poll that closed on Monday. The Democrat's lead was slightly higher than her five-point advantage over Trump in a Sept 11-12 Reuters/Ipsos poll.

I find it odd that so many in that poll would be undecided between them.

(8,391 posts)Is how Trump has the support of more than 1/3 of American voters. Have we gone that far off the rails? I guess so!

(13,914 posts)They're so entrenched in their fear of libruls that they'll stoop to voting for a convicted felon / serial adulterer / 6 time bankrupt "businessman" / nonstop liar / insurrectionist / pussy grabber instead of Kamala.
Little by little they've internally normalized all of tRump's sins to the point that they're blind to it now.

(13,914 posts)The people claiming that tRump will do better on the economy and jobs are just fucking blind to facts. It's the same old story, a repub trashes the economy, a Democrat fixes the economy but it takes time to undo all the damage so a repub gets elected again, repeat over and over.
