Targeting each state with an issue of local interest.... Exactly the way the electoral college was meant to work, forcing politicians to appeal to a wide variety of people, not just the simple majority!!!

[goosecouple]

Americans: "Why didn't you turn the page in this 3.5 years ??"
Kamala: "Trump's fault."

[vickievonn]

Harris couldn’t lead a line to the ladies room! Polls are skewed.

[sallyslygh]

We’re tired of being broke and talked down to by elites and career politicians!! Bring Trump back!!

[-Down-D-Stairs-]

Huh?? He's been breaking away in the polls not Harris.

Is this a joke? If not it’s desperately pathetic

[eiame]

Love how they disabled and removed ability to comment or dislike the video they posted about soon to be again President Trumps video on him playing the "anti woke warriors" video! lol came on here to post in response to it! MAGA BABY! #47

[djsgravely]

How can you even make a feeble attempt at trying to make people believe that this election is not already over? Trump 2024!

[Trevormandude]

Great job turning the comments off on the woke military ad that Trump put out. You probably would have offended quite a few snowflakes and the comments would have been full of them

[Boise_guy]

Kamala going down faster than her first interview with willie brown

[zerocurry]

I hope it doesn't turn into a long week. The longer the count, the more wrong it goes.

[mrnashvilletalkslarryfergu]

Trump today tomorrow everyday! No Kamala the kackler

[kristianthony]

You guys always think everybody's dumb

[XRP-Alchemy]

The Answer to every Question? TRUMP! 🇺🇸

A recent Harvard CAPS/Harris poll reveals that former President Donald Trump holds a slight advantage over Vice President Kamala Harris among early voters in key battleground regions. The poll indicates that 48% of early voters in these pivotal states are casting their ballots for Trump, while Harris trails closely with 47%. Approximately 5% of respondents either selected a third-party candidate or have not yet cast their vote.

Mark Penn, the poll’s co-director, commented that Trump’s “swing state strategy is paying off, ” as the GOP contender now leads by 2 points overall in these states, with 48% backing him compared to 46% supporting Harris.

Though Trump has the upper hand in the battleground states, the poll also shows that Harris is performing strongly on a national scale. Among early voters nationwide, Harris leads Trump by 8 points, securing 51% of the vote, while Trump garners 43%.
