Vice President Kamala Harris now leads Donald Trump in the registered voters weekly tracking poll from Morning Consult.

According to the Morning Consult weekly tracking poll:

– Harris now leads Trump in our tracking: In our first survey conducted fully after President Joe Biden announced he will no longer seek re-election, Harris leads Trump, 46% to 45%.

– Harris unites Democrats: Nearly 2 in 3 Democratic voters support Harris to replace Biden at the top of the ticket, more than double the 30% who said the same late last month following Biden’s concerning debate performance.

The tracking poll also found room for growth with Independents, where Harris leads 40%-38%, with 10% not knowing and 12% choosing someone else. Harris still has room to grow with Democrats, with 89% support compared to Trump’s 91% in the Republican Party. An even 5% will vote for the other party’s nominee. If Harris can gain a few more points with Democrats and Independents, she will be over  50% support.

Trump is starting to settle back into his normal level of 45%ish support.

These numbers are before Harris has named her running mate or had her convention, so she has a much higher ceiling as a candidate than Trump.

The number for Harris should continue to grow as more Democrats come home, and voters get to know her better. Donald Trump is a known entity. His support is what it is, but if Kamala Harris takes off, she has the potential to leave Trump in the dust.
