Vice President Kamala Harris has failed to make a dent in swing state polls following the Sept. 10 presidential debate, according to an analysis from The Hill.
In Pennsylvania, Harris' lead rose slightly to 1.1 percentage points, up from 0.7 points before the debate, while in Michigan, her 1.2 percentage point lead remained unchanged.
In Nevada, her advantage ticked up from 0.5 to 1.2 points. However, in Arizona and Georgia, former President Donald Trump holds a razor-thin 0.1 percentage point lead, with his margin in Georgia shrinking from 0.3 percentage points pre-debate.
According to Stewart Verdery, who served in former President George W. Bush's administration, "When Trump has a bad debate or there's a new oddball poll, it's treated as a game-changer. But the simple truth is that two parties are within 2 to 3 points of each other nationally so there will never be a definitive moment in the campaign. But within those slim margins, Harris has improved her odds considerably since the debate and now appears to be going into the old basketball 'four corners' to run out the clock."
