Despite her focus, \u200cpolls \u2062indicate that many voters are not swayed by this\u2062 argument.\u200b A CBS News-YouGov poll reveals\u2064 that while a majority of\u200d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/pennsylvania-voters-divided-over-fetterman-performance-poll\/\" title=\"Poll shows Pennsylvania voters split on Fetterman&#039;s performance.\">registered voters \u2063approve<\/a> of Harris&#8217;s personal demeanor (52%-48% in her favor), Trump still maintains considerable support despite widespread disapproval \u2063of his conduct (64%-36% against him). Notably, 21% of voters who dislike Trump&#8217;s\u2063 behavior\u2062 indicated they would still vote for him, compared to only 5% of\u2062 those who \u2063dislike\u2064 Harris. Regarding perceived insult, 61% \u2064of respondents do not find Harris \u200cinsulting, whereas 69% view Trump\u2064 as such. Yet, even among \u2062those who perceive Trump as insulting, 28%\u2062 expressed a willingness \u200bto vote \u200dfor him, \u2063contrasting\u2063 with just 5% for Harris among \u200dthose\u2063 who find \u2062her insulting. Both\u2062 Harris and\u200b President Joe Biden have\u2063 previously attempted to \u2063frame Trump as \u2064a danger \u200bto democracy, but the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/poll-most-americans-dont-think-biden-would-make-it-through-a-second-term\/\" title=\"Poll: Majority of Americans Doubt Biden&#039;s Ability for Second Term.\">poll results suggest<\/a> their tactics may \u200bnot resonate as intended with the electorate.  <\/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\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Harris&rsquo;s bet that Trump&rsquo;s character turns off voters not supported in the polls<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_1768678\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Vice President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/kamala-harris\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Kamala Harris\">Kamala Harris<\/a> has made former President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Kamala Harris\">Donald Trump<\/a>&lsquo;s character a key issue in her pitch to voters, but for many, it does not appear to be an issue.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>A CBS News-YouGov <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/harris-trump-poll-likability-2024-election\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"poll\">poll<\/a> shows that a majority of registered voters like how Harris handles herself personally, 52%-48%, and a significant majority dislikes how Trump handles himself personally, 64%-36%.
