Every other Monday, Aaron is joined at 8:30 a.m. by Tom Jensen, the director of Public Policy Polling, for a longstanding regular segment called “What We’re Thinking,” looking at recent survey numbers and discussing what they tell us about American public opinion – election-related and otherwise.
Tom and Aaron discuss recent polling that shows Kamala Harris running (on average) one point ahead of Joe Biden in 2020. If that holds, Harris would win the presidential election – but Tom warns that even a slight shift in the other direction would throw the election to Donald Trump, so getting out the vote is going to be key. (Especially in battleground states like North Carolina, where GOTV efforts made a big difference four years ago.) Also, will Robert F. Kennedy Jr’s Trump endorsement make a difference? Tom says probably not much – but again, everything matters when the race is as tight as this one appears to be.
