Kamala Harris has maintained her advantages over Donald Trump on personal attributes and broadly is seen as running the better presidential campaign in a new ABC News/Ipsos poll, with comparative doubts about Trump’s campaign in his base and the political center alike.
The race between them remains close, with no overall bounce in support for Harris out of her nominating convention, albeit with a wider gender gap. Trump, too, was bounce-free after his convention in July, indicating the locked-in nature of their highly polarized contest as it enters its final two months.
Results show Harris’ competitiveness as a walk-on candidate. Fifty-six percent of Americans in the national survey say she has done an excellent or good job running her campaign, compared with 41% who say the same for Trump. Most, instead, rate Trump’s campaign negatively.
Notably, 93% of Democrats and 56% of independents rate Harris’ campaign positively, as do 24% of Republicans in this poll, produced for ABC by Langer Research Associates with fieldwork by Ipsos. Fewer across groups see Trump’s campaign positively — 79% of Republicans, 38% of independents and 13% of Democrats.
