Poll Shows Just A Third Of Voters Believe V.P. Kamala Harris Would Win Election At Top Of Ticket

A new poll shows that Vice President Kamala Harris (D) has favorable numbers among some groups but lacks popularity as a Democratic candidate.

As President Joe Biden (D) runs for reelection, concerns have risen about the 81-year-old ability to serve out his term in the office.

The Politico poll shows that both the president and vice president lack healthy ratings, with Biden having 54% favorability and Harris having 52% among Democrats.

The poll revealed that only a third of voters believe Harris would win an election if she was named the Democratic nominee. Just 42% of participants viewed Harris as a strong leader.

Harris has outperformed the president with specific voter blocs, including black and Hispanic voters. Harris outperformed Biden among black voters, contrasting results from four years ago, as she garnered 67% favorability.

The vice president has also shown strength on certain policies, including abortion, gender issues, LGBTQ rights and health care.

In contrast, Harris performed well below 50% on immigration, China relations and handling of the Israeli-Palestine conflict.

Harris’ role in key issues may have given her a lead over other Democratic candidates for a 2028 presidential campaign. However, she remains a controversial figure.

The poll further revealed that 36% of voters want Biden to replace Harris as vice president, and 39% want the president to keep Harris as his vice president for another term. Some participants said they are in favor of Harris’ removal, with 23% of Democrats and 34% of independents choosing this option.
