Iowa Poll: Kamala Harris leapfrogs Donald Trump to take lead near Election Day. Here's how

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Omaha Steve (a host of the Latest Breaking News forum).

"A new Des Moines Register/Mediacom Iowa Poll shows Vice President Harris leading former President Trump 47% to 44% among likely voters just days before a high-stakes election that appears deadlocked in key battleground states."

"Independent voters, who had consistently supported Trump in the leadup to this election, now break for Harris. That’s driven by the strength of independent women, who back Harris by a 28-point margin, while independent men support Trump, but by a smaller margin."

"Similarly, senior voters who are 65 and older favor Harris. But senior women support her by a more than 2-to-1 margin, 63% to 28%, while senior men favor her by just 2 percentage points, 47% to 45%. "

Just released about an hour ago. Their final presidential poll of this election cycle. A stunning result, but the Selzer Group is generally considered to be the gold standard for political polls in Iowa.

Trump was cooked all the time. It was inevitable.

Unfortunately, the fascistic poison by the far right will live on long past Trump.
