Trump Poll Shock: Harris Surges 8 Points in NBC Redo

A new NBC poll has delivered a stunning blow to Donald Trump, showing Kamala Harris leading him by eight points in a hypothetical 2024 election rematch. The survey, analyzed by CNN data guru Harry Enten, reveals a dramatic shift from November 2024 when Trump won by just 1.5 points.

Enten's analysis shows that not only has Harris gained ground among 2024 voters, but the shift could have major implications for the 2026 midterms. The data indicates that Harris voters are more loyal to Democratic congressional candidates than Trump voters are to Republicans, with Democrats leading the generic ballot by five points. Among those who didn't vote in 2024, Democrats hold a commanding 16-point advantage.

This polling reversal comes after Harris faced embarrassing lows in betting markets for her 2028 presidential prospects. The dramatic turnaround suggests growing buyer's remorse among voters and could signal trouble for Republicans in upcoming elections. The numbers indicate that Trump's base may be less reliable than Democrats in turning out for their party's candidates, potentially reshaping the political landscape as the midterms approach.
