Fox News host Laura Ingraham cites recent surveys indicating declining support for Vice President Kamala Harris ahead of the 2024 election, highlighting "stomach-churning trend lines" in key states.
Fox News host Laura Ingraham has sounded the alarm over Vice President Kamala Harris's dwindling poll numbers, citing alarming "stomach-churning trend lines" that indicate trouble for the White House hopeful.
According to Ingraham, a recent poll by Emerson and The Hill shows a narrowing race between Harris and former President Donald Trump in Pennsylvania, with both candidates tied at 49%. The same survey reveals that Trump is either tied or leading in other crucial swing states, including Georgia, Arizona, and Wisconsin.

Ingraham further highlighted a Quinnipiac poll released yesterday, which painted an even more concerning picture for Harris. Despite her three-point lead in Pennsylvania, Trump holds a three-point advantage in Michigan and a two-point edge in Wisconsin.
"This is not how Team Kamala thought it was all going to look less than a month out before Election Day," Ingraham remarked.
The grim poll numbers come despite Democrats' relentless efforts to neutralize Trump through legal challenges and their significant financial advantage over Republicans. As the first woman and the first person of color to serve as vice president, Harris was widely expected to be a formidable candidate for the presidency.
However, recent polls suggest that her support has waned since taking office. In a recent ABC News/Washington Post poll, Harris's approval rating stood at just 37%, while Trump's approval rating was 42%.
Analysts say several factors may be contributing to Harris's declining popularity. Some cite her perceived ineffectiveness as vice president, while others point to her inability to connect with voters on a personal level. Her handling of the border crisis and the withdrawal from Afghanistan have also come under scrutiny.
As the 2024 election approaches, it remains to be seen whether Harris can reverse her fortunes and regain the support of the electorate. The latest polls, however, indicate that she faces an uphill battle to maintain her position as vice president and secure the Democratic nomination for president.
