Harris Campaign Admits Kamala Is Losing Key States, Falling Behind in Desperate Email to Supporters
The article discusses the alarming internal polling results for Vice President Kamala Harris, as highlighted by her campaign’s recent fundraising email. The email referenced a New York Times/Siena College poll indicating that she is trailing former President Donald Trump in key swing states: Arizona, Georgia, and North Carolina. Harris’s campaign has seemingly acknowledged these troubling numbers, as they decided to publicize them in an effort to solicit donations, sparking skepticism and ridicule on social media regarding the campaign’s strategies.
Critics point out that losing these states would severely limit Harris’s chances of securing the necessary electoral votes for the 2024 election, especially with Trump’s current favorable positioning in national polling. The reaction to the fundraising email has been largely negative, with many social media users mocking the campaign’s desperation and expressing disbelief at their decision to publicly disclose such unflattering polling data. Some speculate that the recent polling results underscore internal concerns within the Harris campaign and question the timing of her public appearances, such as a visit to the U.S.-Mexico border in Arizona. the situation reflects a sense of urgency and a precarious electoral landscape for Harris as her campaign faces mounting pressure.
Tell the world that your internal polling looks horrible without telling the world that your internal polling looks horrible.
For reasons that perhaps only they could explain, Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign operatives sent out a fundraising Thursday highlighting recent New York Times/Siena College polls that showed her trailing former President Donald Trump in the projected swing states of Arizona, Georgia and North Carolina.
The Times/Siena released those polls on Monday.
In other words, Harris campaign operatives had three full days to decide whether to send that . And they did it anyway.
The new polls showed Trump leading by five points in Arizona, four in Georgia and two in North Carolina. In the 2020 election, officials certified a narrow victory for President Joe Biden in Arizona and Georgia. Trump, however, prevailed in North Carolina.
Losing Arizona and Georgia would give Harris almost no margin for error on the 2024 electoral map.
Of course, as the race currently stands, there is no reason to believe that the vice president has any margin for error.
For one thing, pollsters with the strongest recent record of accuracy have Trump winning the national popular vote. By any credible model, that would translate to an Electoral College landslide.
Furthermore, recent polling showed a virtual tie in Virginia, where Biden won by double digits in 2020. If Virginia has indeed swung toward Trump, then no universe exists in which Harris wins North Carolina.
Polling details aside, however, the real story here involves the Harris campaign’s apparent and amateurish desperation.
In fact, social media users could not believe the fundraising ’s authenticity.
“Is this real?” one user wrote on the social media platform X.
The Harris-Walz campaign sent this out.

One conspiracy-minded X user suspected The New York Times of complicity in the fundraising drive. Otherwise, why would they publish the polls?
The Harris campaign sent out this a day ago. There’s a little voice inside of me that says that the only reason the New York Times published those polls was to create fear in her followers that would drive a fundraising campaign.

Meanwhile, other X users simply marveled at the spectacle. Many added laughing emojis.

One X user suggested that the polls explained Harris’s Friday visit to the border in Arizona.
“The campaign is falling apart just about a month out from the election,” the user wrote.
If you’re wondering why Kamala Harris is going down to the border in Arizona tomorrow
This is why
Her campaign s are in disarray

Above all, Harris campaign operatives’ behavior allows us to speculate with reasonably high confidence about their internal polling.
In fact, even before the fundraising , one X user attributed Harris’s desire for another presidential debate to “worrying” internal polls.
Kamala Harris begs for another debate, and when she doesn’t get one, is forced into doing train wreck interviews.
It’s desperation because her internal polls are worrying. She’s looking for more manufactured hype. Trump is doing the right thing.

Regardless of how Harris’s internal polling looks, for psychological reasons alone the decision to send a mass fundraising that highlighted Trump’s strength in those three crucial swing states constitutes one of the strangest political moves in recent memory.
