Showing Original Post only (View all)Absolutely devastating poll for Trump [View all]
https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/harris-trump-poll-election-issues/story?id=112865487&mc_cid=8c5e22fabf&mc_eid=UNIQIDA midnight national poll by WaPo/ABC:
Harris leads Trump 51% to 45% (among likely voters).

Favorability ratings (RVs, I think):
Harris 45/44
Trump 35/57.
