Kamala Harris Energizes Democrats Amid Biden Exit: Polls Show Boost in Support

Vice President Kamala Harris is receiving increased support among Democrats following President Joe Biden's withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race. New polls indicate that many Democratic voters are more satisfied with Harris as their candidate and see her as a more formidable opponent against Donald Trump.

Vice President Kamala Harris has invigorated Democratic voters in the early days of her presidential candidacy, according to a new poll.

The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll shows about 8 in 10 Democrats would be satisfied with Harris as the Democratic nominee, a significant rise from previous support levels.

Even as Democrats consolidate around Harris, challenges remain. A majority of Americans still view former President Donald Trump as the likely winner if he faces Harris in the general election. However, notable demographic segments, including younger and minority voters, show growing enthusiasm for Harris, signaling a dynamic shift in voter sentiment.
