United States Vice President and Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris came out victorious in the debate with former US President and Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, by 58-36%, a new poll conducted by ABC News/Ipsos showed on Sunday. Back in June, Trump beat incumbent President Joe Biden with 66-28%.
"Americans broadly pick Kamala Harris as the winner of last week’s widely watched presidential debate – yet neither she nor Donald Trump moved the needle in terms of trust on the issues, ratings of the candidates' personal attributes or vote preferences in the 2024 election," it was detailed in the poll.
Among participants supporting Trump, 73% said they had been with him since the beginning, 17% shared they were undecided before taking his side, and 9% mentioned they moved to Trump from another candidate, mostly from other Republican nominees. As for Harris, two-thirds of her supporters stood by her since she entered the race, a quarter were undecided at some point, and 9% moved to her from another candidate.
