Luntz remarked that Harris&#8217; initial surge in popularity appears \u2063to have peaked, with \u2063her \u2063holding a slim \u2062three-point \u200cadvantage \u2064in the polls. He\u200d emphasized the significance of swing states,\u2063 as recent polls show competitive matchups in key areas vital for Trump&#8217;s campaign. Luntz cautioned that, \u2062despite\u2062 Harris&#8217; lead, history indicates that polling advantages \u200bdo not guarantee victory, referencing Hillary\u200b Clinton&#8217;s experience in 2016.<\/p>\n<p>He criticized Trump&#8217;s campaign strategy, noting that \u200dwhile Trump&#8217;s advertising is effective, he has strayed off-topic regarding issues that resonate with voters. As of now,\u200d Harris is experiencing \u200dboth support and criticism\u200c regarding her economic plans, particularly concerning corporate price gouging \u2062initiatives \u2063and her lack\u200d of a detailed policy platform \u2064post-Democratic\u200b National Convention. the political\u200c dynamic remains uncertain and volatile as the election approaches.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> <script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Pollster Frank Luntz said Wednesday on CNN that Vice President Kamala Harris&rsquo; honeymoon phase &ldquo;looks like it has reached its peak,&rdquo; as she now holds an estimated three-point lead.<\/p>\n<p>After becoming the Democratic Party&rsquo;s presidential nominee, major swing state-polls between Harris and former President Donald Trump began to tighten. While on &ldquo;CNN News Central,&rdquo; Luntz emphasized the importance of swing states before stating that Trump has &ldquo;missed the mark&rdquo; on discussing issues voters &ldquo;care about.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I want to emphasize this to every viewer who thinks I&lsquo;m anti-Trump or anti-Harris, if you talk about things that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/kamala-harris-betrays-voters-flips-issue-called-medieval\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">voters<\/a> don&lsquo;t care about, they&lsquo;re not going to vote for you. Donald Trump is already talking about this election being stolen. You can&rsquo;t steal something that you gave away,&rdquo; Luntz said.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I&rsquo;ve never seen the candidates [sic] more missed the mark than Trump has. His advertising is exceptional, it&lsquo;s very explicit and very clear,&rdquo; Luntz continued. &ldquo;But in terms of he himself, he&lsquo;s all over the map and he deserves the fact that he&rsquo;s been falling.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Luntz continued to state, however, despite the &ldquo;boomlet&rdquo; the Harris campaign has had within the polls, he warned she now has the same &ldquo;advantage&rdquo; former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton had before Trump beat her in 2016.<\/p>\n<p>  <script> \t\t\t\tif( ! getCookie( 'ff_subbed' ) ) if( typeof FFADS.replace_ict !='undefined' ) if( FFADS.replace_ict ) eval( FFADS.replace_ict ); \t\t\t<\/script> <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;But again, I have to give you one caveat and then I&lsquo;ll be quiet. He&lsquo;s actually stopped falling. Even though they had a pretty strong convention last week, it looks like the Harris boomlet has reached its peak &mdash; with her having roughly a three point advantage,&rdquo; Luntz said. &ldquo;I remind you that that was the advantage that Hillary Clinton had over Donald Trump on Election Day 2016 and he still beat her in the electoral college. This election is way too close to call.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>A poll conducted by The New York Times\/Siena College in early August showed Harris leading <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/photos-trump-shooters-rifle-gear-released-appear-confirm-report-crooks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trump<\/a> 50 percent to 46 percent in key swing states like Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania&mdash;all crucial for Trump&rsquo;s November bid.<\/p>\n<p>Recent polling from RealClearPolitics shows the former president leading by a slim margin between .2 percent and 1.4 percent in the battleground states of Arizona, Nevada, Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Georgia. Comparatively, Harris is leading Trump in both Wisconsin and Michigan by 1 percent and 2 percent, respectively, according to data from RCP.<\/p>\n<p>However, Harris has faced pushback from both sides after unveiling her economic plans in mid-August. Political pundits have called out her goals of addressing &ldquo;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/harris-price-gouging-ban-merely-a-rhetorical-ploy-on-voters-sarah-bedford-washington-examiner\/\" title=\"Harris \u2018price gouging\u2019 ban merely a \u2018rhetorical ploy\u2019 on voters: Sarah Bedford - Washington Examiner\">price gouging&#038;rdquo<\/a>; by large corporations amid rising grocery costs, saying her plan for a federal ban could not only increase prices, but create black markets.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the vice president has been criticized for failing to release an official policy platform after the Democratic National Convention and for not sitting for an in-depth interview with the press.<\/p>\n<div class=\"disclaimer\">\n<p><em>All content created by the Daily Caller News Foundation, an independent and nonpartisan newswire service, is available without charge to any <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/union-membership-plummets-to-record-low\/\" title=\"Union Membership Plummets to Record Low\">legitimate news publisher<\/a> that can provide a large audience.

During his appearance on &#8220;CNN News Central,&#8221; Luntz highlighted the significance of swing states and criticized Trump for not addressing issues that resonate with voters. He remarked, \u201cI want to stress this to anyone who thinks I\u2019m biased against either Trump or Harris: if you focus on topics that don\u2019t matter to voters, they won\u2019t support you.

He acknowledged that while Harris\u2019 campaign appears to be gaining momentum in polls, she now faces a similar situation to what Hillary Clinton experienced before losing to Trump in 2016.<\/p>\n<p>Luntz added a cautionary note about Harris&#8217; current standing: \u201cWhile it seems like her campaign is doing well\u2014she holds about a three-point lead\u2014I remind you that was also Clinton\u2019s advantage over Trump on Election Day 2016 when he won the electoral college.
