Vice President Kamala Harris Is Now Polling Within the Margin of Error Against Trump.

It's 47-45. (CNN)

Reuters/Ipsos has it at one point. 43-42.

Republicans had better be careful of what they're wishing for. They're all calling for Biden to drop out of the 2024 race. But the President also has another choice: resign and let Kamala Harris run as an incumbent against Trump.

Harris is currently running better against Trump than ANY Democrat, including the President.

I want a victorious Biden-Harris ticket in November.

But if President Biden makes the decision not to run for re-election, then resignation is the better option than havoc at the convention.

You can’t be serious?! You believe that? The most unpopular VP in the history of the country replacing the most unpopular President in the history of the country? Please! 😂

@KateATX

The most unpopular VP in the history of the country replacing the most unpopular President in the history of the country?

Beyond your silliness in making up your own facts there...

It's based on Electoral Math 101.

There's only handful of states that will decide the next election. It's the same handful of states plus a few others that decided the last two elections: Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Toss in Arizona, Georgia, Nevada and North Carolina and one district in each Maine and Nebraska. If there's any change, that's where it will be. In those states.

Harris probably puts Georgia back in play.

I'd like to see a poll with up-to-date favorables/unfavorables in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

Because the battlelines have already been drawn.

A Politico.com at the end of May had Harris at 42-52 (unfavorable/favorable) nationwide. The President was at 43/54. Politico's poll didn't ask for ratings on Trump. Morning Consult did ask: 43/53.

Here are the RCP averages since the end of May for Harris and Trump.

Harris 39/54

Trump 42/54

People have pretty much made up their mind about Trump. But Harris has the chance to pick up more of the undecided than Trump.

@beckyromero the dems wouldn’t give their delegates to her. She’s unelectable. By all means, please have Biden pull out and have her replace him!

@KateATX

Only Harris can use the campaign funds in the Biden-Harris campaign account should the President resign or withdrawl from the race.

Should the delegates support any other candidate for president other than Biden or Harris, they would be unilaterally disarming.

KateATX · 41-45, F

@beckyromero you are entirely wrong with that statement. You are very misinformed just as most of Biden’s supporters are.

@KateATX

You'd be best to consult with a campaign lawyer and the FEC.

KateATX · 41-45, F

@beckyromero so would you. Especially since you have no idea what you’re taking about.

As Harris is a candidate on Biden-Harris campaign committee, only she can use the funds should Biden drop out of the race. There is NO other candidate for president or vice president on that committee. It's only Joe Biden and Kamala Harris

Stop listening to @jackjjackson

KateATX · 41-45, F

@beckyromero who said I’m listening to anyone here? I live in the real world. You live in an AI (albeit a very bad one judging by your profile) world.

@KateATX

So predictable.

When someone like you doesn't like a post, you begin to troll.

When you don't like a few polite responses, you resort to personal attacks.

Just go away and save me a block spot.

@KateATX says

She’s unelectable.

Here's the thing: your lying sack of felonious corruption is EVEN MORE unelectable🤣😂😝🤣😂

KateATX · 41-45, F

@beckyromero you can’t handle truths. You may have been polite, but factually incorrect. When that is pointed out you can’t handle it. Typical lib.

KateATX · 41-45, F

@ElwoodBlues oh right. That’s why the leadership of the DNC and all their major donors are calling for your guy, privately and publicly, to step down. Got it. You’re as delusional as @beckyromero

@KateATX

All you've done is what many people like to do: say something that you don't like is not true and expect that alone should be reason enought for people to believe what you say. Yes you are, of course, free to voice an opinion as much as anyone else.

Now you COULD create a SW question of your own to voice your belief that any Democrat other than Biden or Harris could somehow have access to all the campaign funds designated for the Biden-Harris 2024 general election ticket. I say you "could" do that but it's highly unlikely you would do so because that would be akin to inviting others to criticizing YOUR post. It's so much easier to troll someone else, isn't it? Only time will tell.

@KateATX I pointed out to you that antipathy towards Trump is far higher than towards Harris, and you respond with a total nonsequitur about replacing Biden! Nice work!!
