      This was a national poll…

      Did you have a typo or something?

      What did you mean by “national poll” I don’t think it means what you think it means

        Sigh. What do polls of the whole nation say, you know, rather than just what people who were registered to vote Democratic. What does the country as a whole think? Is she more popular than Biden? Would more people vote for her in swing states? Is she more popular than Trump?

        It’s not really a strong endorsement of the Democratic deputy president to say that specifically Democrats think she might be OK to replace the president, is it? “People who like Democrats like a famous Democrat” just isn’t a strong recommendation. Need more info.

          Not only are you looking for this poll, the article even mentions what you’re looking for…

          Did you not read the article before dismissing it?

          They can only fit so much in the headline…

          It’s not really a strong endorsement of the Democratic deputy president to say that specifically Democrats think she might be OK to replace the president, is it?

          6/10 Dems though Biden would be replaced, remember what Kamala is being compared to.

          6/10 thinking shed make a good president is a positive move…

          Need more info.

          I’d suggest you start with the article, and if you still want more, look at the polls data directly

            I asked what I thought was a really obvious question - about what the rest of the country thinks, because it’s the one that matters and you started shouting at me for asking.

            If it made you so cross, why not just not answer, or just politely say that there’s more info in the article instead of ranting at me.

            I see you quoted me more stats about what Democrats think. Thanks for the clarification. /s

              To be honest I had already copied the part in the article you wanted, then figured you’d just ask for what’s in the next paragraph.

              It’s honestly a lot easier when you read a headline and think “I need more info” to just read the article.

              It’s all right there in the article, and a professional wrote it.

              If that’s not enough, well, it’s really not hard to interpret poll results directly. I do it all the time, been doing it for years.

              It’s a good skill if you care about politics, but you’ll never learn how to fish if people keep handing you fish when you ask

    Just a UK guy here, but she does seem like a pretty sensible swap. I know there’s some controversy around her because of her time in the police system, but I haven’t heard anything bad about her at all during her time as VP, she’s basically been off the radar (compare that shit to Pence).

    A couple good speeches here and there, some reasonable policies to offer people, and Biden’s endorsement, and you’ve got a really solid replacement.

    A new poll from the AP-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found that about 6 in 10 Democrats believe Kamala Harris would do a good job in the top slot. About 2 in 10 Democrats don’t believe she would, and another 2 in 10 say they don’t know enough to say.

    The undecided can be convinced during the campaign.

    But I doubt I’ll start thinking Kamala would be a good president…

    I do think that she’ll be able to beat Trump in the election at least. Which is better than Joe.
