* Speaking of 2024 polling, the latest CBS News/YouGov survey found Harris narrowly leading Trump in Wisconsin, 51% to 49%, and in Michigan, 50% to 49%. The same batch of results showed the two major-party nominees tied in Pennsylvania, 50% to 50%. (Click the link for information on the survey’s methodology and margin of error.)
* The final primaries of the 2024 cycle will be held this week in New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Delaware, and there are some congressional and gubernatorial contests of note.
* The Harris campaign’s official website now has an “issues” page fleshing out the Democratic candidate’s vision on a variety of areas.
* The Harris campaign also unveiled a new, minute-long television ad ahead of the vice president’s debate with Trump, shining a light on the high-profile members of the Republican’s own team who (a) have denounced him; (b) oppose his re-election; or (c) both. A Politico report noted, “The ad will run nationally on Fox News and in West Palm Beach — home to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort — and Philadelphia media markets on Tuesday, the day he will debate Harris for the first time.”
