In February, Harris told the Wall Street Journal, ‘I am ready to serve. There’s no question about that.’ However, voters in swing states hold a different view.
In the poll, 42 percent of voters expressed that they didn’t trust Harris at all to serve as president. The survey reached out to registered voters in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.
Harris’ approval rating in these seven swing states stays relatively low, with 40 percent giving her either a very favorable or somewhat favorable rating, just one point below Biden’s approval rating of 41 percent. (Poll majority in swing states do not trust Kamala Harris as President)

In 2024, with Biden at 81 years old on Election Day and Trump at 78, voters seem more focused on the vice president. Sixty-two percent believe the VP candidate is more important than in previous elections, while 32 percent see it as equally important. Only six percent think it’s less important.
Despite Harris’s initial challenges as vice president, Biden has remained steadfast in his support for her throughout the first three years of their administration.
In January 2022, Biden affirmed, ‘She’s going to be my running mate, No. 1. And No. 2, I did put her in charge. I think she’s doing a good job.(Poll majority in swing states do not trust Kamala Harris as President)
By the fall of 2023, some political columnists urged Biden to reconsider Harris as his running mate. They argued that given Biden’s age and Harris’s lack of popularity, he should choose a more formidable vice-presidential candidate.
Prominent Democrats have refrained from openly expressing their concerns about Harris, perhaps hesitant or unable to critique the nation’s historic first woman and first black vice president.
CNN reported that the Democratic National Committee held focus groups to grasp why voters weren’t connecting with Harris. Feedback from these groups highlighted critiques of Harris, including disapproval of her laugh. Some participants even questioned Biden’s feelings towards her.
The Bloomberg News/Morning Consult poll, conducted from April 8 to 15, surveyed 4,969 registered voters across seven swing states. (Poll majority in swing states do not trust Kamala Harris as President)
