(DCNF)—“The View” co-host Joy Behar expressed worry Wednesday that recent polling is showing good outcomes for Republican nominee Donald Trump.
Recent polls show Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris at a deadlock tie nationally, while the former president has received good numbers in battleground states and among black and Latino men. Behar said she is becoming nervous as the media is continuously saying that Trump is doing well in the polls.
“I’m starting to worry about the polls because I see a lot of the media saying that he’s leading, and everybody’s getting nervous and that,” Behar said. “But they’re doing that on purpose because basically it’s so disheartening for Democrats and people who are leaning toward Kamala to say ‘what are you doing, don’t buy into that.’ Don’t buy into that.”
WATCH:
Harris’ momentum and national lead has dropped since September, with an NBC News poll from Sunday finding that the vice president’s 5-point lead dropped to a deadlock tie of 48% to 48% against Trump. Harris’ positive rating also decreased from 48% to 43% in just one month.
The vice president is leading Trump in the key battleground states of Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan by 1 point, CNN senior data reporter Harry Enten said Monday. President Joe Biden and former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton were ahead by 8 points in mid-October during the 2016 and 2020 elections, indicating that Harris’ 1-point lead may not be enough to win those states.
Trump has historically over performed polls during the general elections. In 2020, Biden won Wisconsin by 1 point, Michigan by 3 points and Pennsylvania by 2 points, despite polls showing him leading by larger margins.
Harris particularly holds historically low support among black men between the ages 18 and 44 with only 41 points of support, CNN senior data reporter Harry Enten said Monday. Trump has gained ground among black and Latino men since 2016 and 2020, with 51% of Latino men between the ages of 18 and 34 supporting Trump in Arizona, for instance, according to a USA Today/Suffolk University poll from Oct. 7.
Black voters have also shifted away from the Democratic Party in general, as the support for Republicans among the voter bloc rose from 7% in 2016 to 15% in 2024.
Harris’ lead with white women has also withered away since September, with Trump securing a 2-point lead against the vice president in October.
