Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris said Thursday that she’s “running like the underdog” against Republican Donald Trump while asserting she’s going to win despite “what the polls say.”
Harris made the comments during a press conference in Madison, Wisconsin, covered live by Newsmax.
“Listen, I am putting it all on the field and it's going to be a very tight race,” she told reporters. “And I am running like the underdog because we are. Donald Trump's been running for the last decade. I've been in this race about 3 1/2 months. And the stakes are so high.
“But I've been saying for quite some time, regardless of what the polls say, we are going to win, I do believe that,” she added.
The election is Tuesday.
Trump leads Harris by 0.5 points nationally, according to the latest RealClearPolitics polling average. In Wisconsin, however, one of the three "Blue Wall" battleground states that is seen as essential for Harris to win in order to reach 270 electoral votes, she is leading Trump by 0.2 points, according to the RCP average. Michigan and Pennsylvania are the other two.
Harris held a rally in Madison on Wednesday, the same day that Trump traveled to Green Bay to stump with former Packers quarterback Brett Favre.
