Are national pollsters intentionally underreporting votes for President Donald Trump in his 2024 presidential race against Vice President Kamala Harris? Many on the far Left fear a repeat of Trump’s victory in 2016 could be on the horizon.

For example, Senator John Fetterman (PA) asserted that “polling has been seriously damaged since 2016.” The Senator is concerned that Kamala’s voters might be too overly optimistic about the state of the race, which could hurt them on Election Day.

In 2016, the polls showed that Hillary Clinton was up eight points in Pennsylvania, and right now Real Clear Politics has Harris only up 0.7% in the state, giving the far Left some serious concerns. The polls remain tight even after most of the mainstream media praised Kamala for winning the presidential debate.

A notable New York Times/Sienna poll shows strong numbers for President Trump in the Sun Belt battleground states. The aforementioned poll has Trump up by four points in Arizona, four points in Georgia, and two points in North Carolina. The poll found that most voters in the Sun Belt said their lives were better during the Trump presidency rather than the Biden-Harris presidency.

My colleague, ACLJ Senior Producer Will Haynes, explained the changing landscape in how pollsters collect their data:

The ability to get quality polls has declined in the years post-landline. And now even in a world where if you see a number that you don’t know who it is, the odds of you picking it up on your cell phone are very low. So they have to spend a lot of money, continually going through valid phone numbers, finding likely voters, and then finding people to pick up. And then also having to base the people that do pick up and take their poll if it’s only one demographic of people, whether it be senior citizens who are on landlines or people with cell phones who aren’t quite a voting age or may not be voting. They have to adjust their polling methodology to try to make it accurate. It is all an art and a science, and, once again, is not ever 100% accurate.

Let’s be honest: It’s almost impossible to read the polls right now. The polling system is highly flawed. And some firms are even implementing AI into their polls to predict elections. Based on who the pollsters are polling, and if their data is often skewed with more Republican or Democrat voters, it’s hard to know who’s ahead. The race remains most likely within the margin of error for both Harris and Trump.

In other news regarding Kamala Harris, our legal team continues to pursue our ongoing Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request regarding the Biden-Harris Department of Defense labeling pro-life organizations as terrorist groups. We sent the request when it was first revealed that the Army had ridiculously and without basis targeted Operation Rescue, a number of other pro-life groups, pro-life sidewalk counselors (who we represent at the Supreme Court), and anyone with a “Choose Life” license plate as “terrorist groups” in an official military training program.

I don’t know if you know anyone with a “Choose Life” license plate, but they’re not usually the most hostile drivers on the road. Such grouping of pro-life supporters with Hamas and ISIS murderers is sickening. And our military has been trained for years to believe this, which is atrocious and dangerous.

We sent a demand letter to the Biden-Harris Department of Defense, demanding that the Army immediately apologize and acknowledge in writing that none of the pro-life organizations it named are considered domestic terrorist organizations by the Army, including specifically our client, Operation Rescue. It must provide assurances that such baseless labeling and training will not reoccur. Without this, the threat and stigma of being identified as a terrorist organization remains.

You can also take a stand against the Biden-Harris Administration’s targeting of pro-life groups. Sign our petition to let your voice be heard. The ACLJ will never stop fighting to protect pro-life organizations or supporters.
