Most Americans aren’t confident that Vice President Kamala Harris would be able to sustain the tasks of a president, according Trafalgar Group.
Survey results indicate that 63.6% of respondents said they were not confident that Harris is ready to be president, with 58.6% being “not confident at all.”
The results differed by party affiliation, but all showed signs of a significant lack of confidence in Harris. Of Democrats surveyed, 42.6% were not confident, compared to 88.4% of Republicans. In addition, 61.8% of independents or third-party members were not confident in Harris.
In the 2020 election, Nevada supported now President Joe Biden and Harris, his running mate, over Donald Trump and Mike Pence. The Democrats won a tight race with barely over 50% of the vote and 703,486 total ballots, according to Silver State Election Results.
“Our last poll found that most Americans don’t believe Joe Biden is actually running the country, and today we’re learning voters think Kamala Harris’ tenure as Vice President has been a disaster, and she’s absolutely not ready to step in and take his place. Washington DC has never been more radically out of step with the will of the American people than right now,” Mark Meckler, president of Convention of States Action, said in a press release.
Convention of States Action, a grassroots political organization, partnered with the Trafalgar Group, a public polling and market research firm, to poll 1161 likely general election voters for the survey on Harris’ preparedness.
Convention of States Action contributes to public opinion by promoting amendments that would impose limitations on the size and scope of the federal government. The organization, supported by over 5 million Americans, has a current focus is on calling an Article V convention of the states to propose amendments to the U.S. Constitution.
“Our message to America is this: Washington doesn’t care what you think,” Meckler said. “Get the attention of those who do. Make sure your governor, state representative, and local elected officials know where you stand. They can actually deliver for you, and will pay attention to your priorities.”
