Democrats diss New York Times poll showing Trump gains: ‘Come on’
Liberal media and Democratic activists are talking up a storm over the latest New York Times-Siena College poll showing that Vice President Kamala Harris’s polling has peaked and former President Donald Trump is back in front.

Our latest Times/Siena polls this morning in the Sun Belt –
North Carolina: Trump+3
Georgia: Trump+4
Arizona: Trump+5https://t.co/LvkQVKfsvx— Nate Cohn (@Nate_Cohn) September 23, 2024
“If you believe this New York Times poll,” CNN’s Jim Acosta said on the new poll’s numbers showing Trump picking up Hispanic votes.
The new poll was released Monday morning and showed Trump leading Harris in Georgia, Arizona, and North Carolina. Those states are seen as one path to winning the election in November.
Jim Acosta is having a brutal morning on CNN.
He was just forced to read the NYT poll that shows Kamala’s support with Latinos in Arizona has dropped 11% since last month.

Rosenberg listed several complaints about the poll on his Hopium Chronicles blog. He wrote:
Yes, there is new NYT polling this morning with good data for Trump in AZ, GA, NC, but I want to be very clear — the NYT has been running 3-4 points more Republican than other pollsters of late, and there are at least three big problems with this new polling.
These polls show a 10 point swing to Trump in AZ and a 4 point swing to Trump in NC. Almost every other poll taken in the last few weeks shows Harris gaining ground, not falling behind. And a 10 point swing — come on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Last week the NYT found Harris up 4 in PA, this week down 5 in AZ. These two states had the same results in 2020 — small wins for Biden. But they 9 points apart now? Please.
In its new round of battleground polls somehow the NYT failed to poll the states where we have been performing best in the blue wall — MI, WI — and in the Sunbelt — NV. Choosing those 4 states of the 7 battlegrounds was something……..

CNN also dissected the survey. On its morning show, CNN spun the North Carolina results as good for Harris.
But those looking for a trend noted polls released over the weekend showing that the Trump-Harris race is tightening in Democratic states, including Virginia and New York. Republicans said that showed a pro-Trump trend.
