According to the Cook Report, Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign momentum continues to grow, with her outperforming or tied with former President Donald Trump in all but one swing state.
The Cook assessment is well-known for its political analysis, and Amy Walter’s assessment, released Wednesday morning, provides even encouragement to the Harris campaign from the liberal media.
The Cook Political Report Swing State Project Survey performed by BSG and GS Strategy Group found that Vice President Kamala Harris was leading or tied with former President Donald Trump in all but one of the seven swing states.
Overall, she leads by a slim margin of 48% to 47% in those states.
Bottom line: Harris not as unpopular/burdened as Rs thought she would be. Trump not as unelectable as Ds think he should be https://t.co/r5zNwS9Xan

Harris has reduced the distance with Trump since the last Swing State Project survey in May, when Trump topped President Joe Biden by three points overall and won or tied in all seven swing states.
The only state where Trump still maintains a slight lead is Nevada, but Harris has cut Trump’s lead by six points since May.
