Voters view Harris more favorably as she settles into role atop Democratic ticket: AP-NORC poll

A new poll finds voters view Vice President Kamala Harris slightly more favorably than they did in July, just after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race. The survey from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research finds that the Democratic presidential nominee is now seen more positively than negatively. Former President Donald Trump’s favorability ratings remained steady, although the poll was conducted prior to the apparent assassination attempt of the Republican nominee on his golf course in Florida on Sunday. Even a small uptick in Harris’ favorability rating is a positive sign for the Democratic candidate. Shifts in favorability ratings for national figures like Biden or Trump have been rare over the past few years.
