“Blaming Jewish voters would seem a strange way to win them over. Maury Litwack, for one, described Trump’s comments [at the Israeli-American Council National Summit] as ‘disturbing.’”   timesunion.com/churchill/arti…

These findings from the new CNN poll set the stage for the final weeks of the campaign: 58% say Harris's views are generally mainstream, while 54% say Trump's views are too extreme, including a near majority (48%) who say Trump is so extreme that he poses a threat to the country.

New national poll by Ipsos for Reuters: Harris leads 50% to 44% among likely voters. Among registered voters, it's 47% to 40%. Ipsos' last poll for Reuters (right post-debate) had Harris up 47/42 among registered voters (no likely voters). Link: reuters.com/world/us/harri…

These targeted surveys are so much better than small sample crosstabs. (Not just better for Harris - though they are - but more directional and legit).

Brutal, must-read column by Drew Magary about how the New York Times is boosting Trump's candidacy by refusing to report the truth: That Harris is destroying him. sfgate.com/sf-culture/art…
