Periskopi(2 years ago)
(2 years ago)US Deputy Democratic President Kamala Harris heads Republican Donald Trump with 47% to 42% in the race to win presidential elections on November 5th, boosting its priority following a debate with former president who electors think largely he won, according to a Reuters/V. Ipsos closed Thursday. [...]
The two-day poll showed that Harris had a top five percentage points lead among registered voters, slightly more than the four-point priority he had against Trump in a Reuters/ Ipsos from August 21st-28th.
Among the voters who said they had heard at least something about the debate Tuesday, 53% said Harris won and 24% said Trump won, while the rest said no one had won or responded. About 52% of those familiar with the debate said Trump had made mistakes and did not look sharp, while 21% said the same about Harris. Among republican electors, one in five said Trump didn't look sharp.
Harris, 59, forced Trump, 78, to defend himself in a harsh presidential debate with a flow of attacks on his ability to be in office and his numerous legal problems, stressing Trump's conviction for serious crimes on charges he had forged business documents. About 52% of the electors known to the debate said Harris “received the impression of a higher moral integrity,” compared to 29% saying the same thing about Trump.
Many Republicans were also not convinced of their candidate performance in the debate in Philadelphia. About 53% of republic's electionmakers in the poll said Trump won the debate, compared to 91% of the Democrats who said she was the winner. Among the republics, 31% said no one won, and 14% said Harris had crossed Trump.
Ninety-one per cent of survey-registered voters said they had heard at least something about the debate, and 44% said they had heard too much. The debate, organised by ABC News, draws 67.1 million television viewers, according to data from Nielsen, exceeding the number of around 51 million people who saw Trump's debate with the presidential candidate Joe Biden in June.
Biden's poor performance in that debate led to widespread calls from other Democrats to withdraw his candidacy for re-election, which he did in July. Now Trump is the oldest candidate in the race, and the poll found that 52% of voters consider Trump too old to work in the government, compared to 7% who said the same thing about Harris.
The selectors usually gave Harris more recognition than Trump for the way he maintained himself. When asked which of the two seems more dignified, 56% of the people known with the debate chose Harris, compared to 24% who chose Trump. Kwar 49% said Harris “looked like someone who would listen to me and understand my concerns,” compared to 18% who saw Trump that way. /Reuters
