HARRIS IS POLLING REALLY WELL. Her better-than-expected numbers are creating optimism, but Trump can still win. 5 min 691 Sorry, a summary is not available for this article at this time. Please try again later. Vice President Kamala Harris gestures toward the crowd during a rally at the University of Las Vegas's Thomas & Mack Center on Saturday. (Melina Mara/The Washington Post) By Perry Bacon Jr. August 13, 2024 at 8:35 a.m. EDT Recent polls show that Vice President Kamala Harris is doing much better than President Joe Biden was when he opted last month to withdraw from the presidential race. At the same time, Harris is in a much weaker position compared with Biden at this point in the 2020 race or Hillary Clinton eight years ago. The good “vibes” many on the left feel, myself included, should not obscure this reality: Former president Donald Trump still has a decent chance of winning in November.
