The senior data reporter examined new surveys from three key battleground states and suggested that former President Donald Trump should be alarmed by the results as he competes against his Democratic opponent, Vice President Harris. &#8220;It&#8217;s all about the economy,&#8221; Enten remarked on Monday, emphasizing its importance in the election. He noted that economic issues have traditionally been Trump&#8217;s strong suit compared to his previous rival, President Joe Biden.<\/p>\n<p>In a poll conducted by the Financial Times and the University of Michigan\u2019s Ross School of Business, comparisons between July and August revealed a notable change: 35% of registered voters trusted Biden more than Trump on economic matters in July, while 41% favored Trump. However, following Biden&#8217;s withdrawal from the race, support for Harris rose to 42%, surpassing Trump&#8217;s steady 41%. &#8220;The movement here is crucial,&#8221; Enten pointed out during his discussion with Jim Acosta.<\/p>\n<p>He highlighted another poll from The New York Times and Siena College showing Harris gaining ground in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan within just a few days\u2014an increase of 8 points in Michigan, 13 points in Pennsylvania, and 11 points in Wisconsin among likely voters. According to Enten, these trends indicate a significant turnaround for Harris against Trump.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s not just about surface-level issues; there are deeper trends at play that should genuinely concern Trump&#8217;s campaign\u2014especially regarding economic perceptions,&#8221; he told Acosta. Acosta described this polling shift as &#8220;remarkable&#8221; and indicative of a &#8220;completely changed race.&#8221; This week, Harris is expected to unveil her economic strategies aimed at reducing costs for Americans<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2678,"featured_media":2323208,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/cnn-newsroom-with-jim-acosta.webp","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[538],"tags":[9373,37915,32717,32438,32076],"class_list":["post-2323207","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-washington-examiner","tag-cnn","tag-economic-polling","tag-harry-enten","tag-kamala-harris","tag-washington-examiner"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/cnn-newsroom-with-jim-acosta.webp","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2323207","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2678"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2323207"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2323207\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2323208"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2323207"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2323207"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2323207"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
