Democrat Pollsters Warn to Not Buy Into Harris’ Spike In the Polls



The Democratic National Convention (DNC) was supposed to illuminate Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign, but pollsters are concerned that her chances of beating former President Donald Trump are bleak. 

Pollsters warn against those overly optimistic that Harris will outrun Trump, pointing to polls that showed a twice-failed Democrat nominee in the lead against Trump during the 2016 election.   

“We don’t have it,” Jen O’Malley Dillon, the chairwoman of the Harris campaign, said. “We are a polarized nation in a challenging time, and despite all the things that are happening in this country, Donald Trump still has more support than he has had at any other point. It is going to come down to every single vote.”

Democratic polling firm GBAO Strategies partner Margie Omero cautioned Democrats not to hold onto hope over Harris’ poll bump after President Joe Biden was forced out of the race.

Another pollster, John Anzalone— the lead pollster on Biden’s 2020 campaign— acknowledged that anything could happen between now and the November election and that ”every year, we’ve had different curveballs.”

The latest scandal to rock the Harris campaign suggests that Democrats are well aware that they don't yet have the win in hand. 

During the Democratic National Convention (DNC), household names were supposedly supposed to perform as Harris officially accepted her party’s nomination. 

The Huffington Post and TMZ reported that Beyonce would be performing on the final night of the DNC. MSNBC’s Katie Phang also said she heard “that @Beyonce has arrived at the United Center!”

However, the DNC ended the night without any performances, despite outlets “confirming” them.

Critics claim that Democrats ignited the rumors to entice viewers to tune into the DNC this week. 

A representative for Beyoncé says the singer will not attend the 2024 Democratic National Convention.

“Beyoncé was never scheduled to be there,” the Grammy-winning star’s rep tells The Hollywood Reporter. “The report of a performance is untrue.”
