EVERYONE TAKE A BREATH. It was always going to be close, even if Harris remains better placed to win than Trump. 5 min 2274 Vice President Kamala Harris speaks to Wisconsin voters during a rally in Madison, Wis., on Friday. (Melina Mara/The Washington Post) By Matt Bai September 23, 2024 at 7:15 a.m. EDT Well, that was predictable. After a convention speech that had Democrats buzzing about how she had taken control of the race, and after a lopsided debate that seemed like it should have put the election away, Kamala Harris finds herself with only a slight lead over Donald Trump in the latest polls — and effectively tied in the most pivotal states. And now we’ve reached the stage of the fall where Democrats freak out and get furious at all the voters who must either be brain-dead or racist, and at an equivocating news media that should be making it clear how terrible Trump is, even though all the media does is talk about how terrible Trump is.
