‘Woof’: CNN Polling Expert Highlights 26 Point Jump in Dem Enthusiasm for Voting After Biden Stepped Aside

Democrats appear to be experiencing a boost of enthusiasm for voting now that President Joe Biden is no longer in the picture

On Monday, CNN polling expert Harry Enten highlight polls appearing to show a surge in enthusiasm in the wake of his decision to step aside and let Vice President Kamala Harris take over.

“We know that Democrats are suffering from low enthusiasm, so ‘enthusiastic about voting,'” Enten said. “So this is Democrats for Biden or Harris. Look at this — back in February, just 62 percent of Democrats said they were enthusiastic about voting for 👤Joe Biden. Look at this now — woof! Up to 88 percent now say that they are enthusiastic about voting for 👤Kamala Harris.”

He continued:

“That is a huge jump. That is a 26-point jump. Look at Trump during the same stretch. Republicans for Trump, it was 80 percent in February. Look, it’s still fairly high at 82 percent, but compared to February where Trump had this 18-point advantage. Now we see Harris with a six-point advantage.”

Finally, Enten said, “It’s definitely for Democrats. Game on. They are very enthusiastic. We see it in the money being raised. We see in the volunteer sign-ups. And now we’re seeing in the polling as well.”

According to RealClearPolitics’ average of polls, former President 👤Donald Trump leads Harris by just 1.7 points nationally.

However, Harris reportedly raised $200 million in her first week as the likely nominee.
