A recent poll conducted by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research has revealed some interesting shifts in voter perceptions of Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump.
According to the survey, Harris is now viewed slightly more favorably by voters compared to July, with about half of voters expressing a somewhat or very positive view of her. On the other hand, Trump's favorability ratings have remained steady, with about 6 in 10 voters holding a somewhat or very unfavorable view of him.
Despite some positive shifts in views towards Harris, the survey also indicates that a significant portion of voters remain skeptical about both candidates' ability to bring about positive change in the country. However, Harris is perceived as having a better chance of winning the election in November compared to Trump.
Independent voters, in particular, view Harris more favorably than Trump, with a notable share indicating that they do not know enough about Harris to form a definitive opinion. This suggests that Harris may have more room to gain support among independent voters.
While opinions about Trump are more firmly established on certain attributes, such as being willing to say anything to win the election, Harris is seen as more likely to bring about positive change and fight for the interests of the people.
Overall, the poll highlights the evolving perceptions of Harris and Trump among voters, with Harris gaining some ground in terms of favorability and perceived presidential qualities. The upcoming election is likely to be influenced by these shifting views and the contrasting perceptions of the two candidates.
