Vice President Kamala Harris is seeing a rise in her favorability ratings as she settles into her role as the Democratic nominee for the 2024 presidential election.
Recent polls show that 50% of Americans now view her favorably, a notable increase from earlier in the year. However, when it comes to economic issues, voters remain divided on whether Harris or former President Donald Trump would handle the economy better, making it a central issue in the upcoming election.
This shift highlights Harris's growing prominence in the race as she continues to solidify her position on the Democratic ticket.

Of course the media is pushing Kamala Harris now, but let’s not forget her track record of failure on key issues like the border crisis and inflation. Her favorability might be rising, but I bet most Americans still don’t trust her to handle the economy better than Trump. The Democrats are just trying to sell her as the next big thing, but she hasn’t done anything to earn it.

It’s great to see Kamala Harris gaining more support—she's been a strong advocate for progressive policies like healthcare access and racial justice. Now we just need to make sure she keeps pushing for bold economic reforms to really address inequality.
Great, another big-government politician gaining ground – just what we need, more control over our lives and less economic freedom.

Going into November's election, neither Kamala Harris nor Donald Trump has a decisive edge with the public on the economy, turning an issue that was once a clear strength for Trump into the equivalent of a political jump ball.
