Trump Gets Fantastic Polling News In Blue State
Former President Donald Trump has taken a massive lead over Vice President Kamala Harris in a key Democrat constituency in a blue state.
The former president has garnered a small lead among Jewish voters in New York, a disturbing sign for the vice president, Fox News reported.
“Trump garnered the support of 50% of likely Jewish voters in New York, according to a Siena Research Institute poll released Tuesday, a slight lead over Vice President Harris, who garnered the selection of 49% of respondents,” the report said.
“While the lead for Trump is slim, it marks a dramatic change from the former president’s prospects against President Biden, who in June led Trump among likely Jewish voters, 52%-46%, in the state,” it said.
It may be because Harris has continuously called for a ceasefire in the Israel VS Hamas war and was the first person in President Joe Biden’s administration to do that.
“Israel has a right to defend itself and how it does so matters. What has happened in Gaza over the past nine months is devastating,” she said in July.
“The images of dead children and desperate hungry people fleeing for safety, sometimes displaced for the second, third or fourth time. We cannot look away in the face of these tragedies. We cannot allow ourselves to become numb to the suffering and I will not be silent,” the Democrat nominee for president said.
“As I just told Prime Minister Netanyahu, it is time to get this deal done,” the vice president said.
“So to everyone who has been calling for a ceasefire, and to everyone who yearns for peace, I see you and I hear you,” she said.
And on Friday when she was confronted by anti-Israel protesters she again affirmed her commitment for a ceasefire.
“I have been clear: now is the time to get a ceasefire deal and get the hostage deal done,” she said.
But Trump has been strong in his support for Israel.
“I think her remarks were disrespectful,” the former president said to CNN reporter Kristen Holmes of Harris’ comments when he met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. “They weren’t very nice pertaining to Israel. I actually don’t know how a person who is Jewish could vote for her, but that’s up to them.”
“She doesn’t like Jewish people. She doesn’t like Israel. That’s the way it is, and that’s the way it’s always gonna be,” he said.
During his meeting with the prime minister, he wondered why a Jewish American would vote for the Harris ticket.
“I said, ‘How can a Jewish person or a person that loves Israel vote, think of this, vote for this, these parties?’ How can they vote Democrat? How can they vote for these horrible, these horrible people?” he said.
“We came to the conclusion it’s mostly habit,” he said.
A trusted polling analysis website posted some good news for former President Donald Trump on Friday, showing that, as of right now, he is headed for a comfortable electoral college victory over Vice President Kamala Harris.
Tom Bevan, the co-founder and president of RealClearPolitics, cited the average polling from several surveys published this week to determine that Trump is on pace to win 287 electoral votes while Harris is at 251. In order to win the presidency, 270 electoral votes are required.
“Current RCP No-Toss Up Electoral map: Harris 251, Trump 287. Pennsylvania gets her to 270. Without it, she’d need to win two more states – one of which would have to be GA or NC. Winning AZ+NV would leave her at 268,” Bevan wrote on X, along with a U.S. map graphic showing the breakdown.
It should be noted that RCP’s polling average had Trump ahead of then-Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton in 2016 and then-nominee Joe Biden ahead of Trump in 2020. The percentages that both candidates won at the time were within the margins predicted by the site.
