(Natural News) A recent Redfield & Wilton Strategies poll shows that support for Vice President Kamala Harris’ bid for president has experienced a significant drop since her official nomination during the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Chicago.
The poll, conducted on Aug. 29 among 2,500 self-reported likely voters, reveals that 44 percent of respondents would back Harris over former President Donald Trump, who garnered 42 percent of support. Eight percent of voters remain undecided, and four percent would opt for a different candidate.
This latest poll represents a three-point drop in support for Harris since just a week ago in a previous poll conducted on Aug. 21, during the third day of the DNC. Support for Trump in this latest poll has also dropped but only by two points. The net result is a one-point swing in favor of Trump.

The findings also suggest that Trump’s recent indictment related to his efforts to challenge the 2020 election results has not negatively impacted his prospects.

Moreover, the survey highlights the effect of the withdrawal of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on the race and his subsequent endorsement of Trump, which appears to have reshaped the contest. The poll shows an increase in undecided voters, now at eight percent, up four points from the Aug. 21 poll, which had Kennedy at three percent support. Additionally, the “other” category has risen by four percent, suggesting that lesser-known third-party candidates have absorbed some of Kennedy’s former supporters.
ABC News/Ipsos poll shows no post-DNC bump in support for Harris
An ABC News/Ipsos poll released on Sunday, Sept. 1 revealed a similar downward trend in support for Harris as the initial excitement surrounding her nomination subsides.
The survey, conducted from Aug. 23 to 27, found that Harris only holds a narrow four-point lead over Trump among registered voters and the general adult population of the United States, with a 50 percent to 46 percent split in her favor.
Additionally, the poll found some shifts in demographic support for the candidates. Harris increased her lead among women to 13 points, up by six. However, she lost ground with male voters. Before the DNC, Harris led among men by three points (49 percent to 46 percent), but now Trump holds a five-point advantage (51 percent to 46 percent) for an eight-point turnaround.
On specific issues, voters expressed greater confidence in Trump to handle the economy (by eight points), inflation (by eight points), immigration (by nine points) and the Israel-Hamas war (by seven points) compared to Harris. However, voters viewed Harris as more capable of addressing health care (by 10 points), protecting democracy (by seven points) and combating gun violence (by six points).
However, just like the Redfield & Wilton Strategies poll, the ABC News/Ipsos poll shows no bump in support for Harris despite the four-day convention in Chicago last month.
“The race between them remains close, with no overall bounce in support for Harris out of her nominating convention,” said Gary Langer, the president of Langer Research Associates, which produced the poll.
