Kamala Harris Trounced Donald Trump in Debate: Flash Poll

Source: Newsweek

CNN conducted an instant poll following Tuesday night's presidential debate that suggested Harris won the discussion, with 63 percent pointing toward her success.

The poll has a 5.4 percent margin of error, and it suggests that only 37 percent of debate watchers believed former President Donald Trump won the first—and potentially only—nominee meet-up.

. . .

"This is a complete reversal from what we saw in June," CNN political director David Chalian said. "It was 67 percent to 33 percent, two-thirds thinking Trump won, only one-third thinking Biden won. A complete reversal."

. . .

Harris was trailing Trump in favorability 39 percent to 41 percent prior to the debate, according to CNN. After tonight's discussions, CNN now shows her at 45 percent favorability and Trump at 39 percent.

Now, hopefully, I can quit fretting over the polling numbers not being good enough to overcome the right leaning bias of the electoral college.

5. On election day I'd love to see the polls at 67 to 33 in her favor

On election night it'll be a lot harder for him to rally his MAGAts to go out and stop the steal with
numbers like that.
