The online version of From the Politics Desk, NBC News Politics team’s evening newsletter, features national political correspondent Steve Kornacki discussing the accuracy of polls in the 2020 election and whether they could be off again in 2024. Kornacki highlights the close race between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, with concerns that polling may underestimate support for both candidates among different demographic groups.
Senior Washington correspondent Hallie Jackson interviews Kamala Harris, who expresses preparedness for the possibility of Trump declaring victory before votes are counted. The Democratic campaign braces for a potential crack in the “blue wall” states of Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, with concerns about losing part of these crucial states.
The newsletter also covers various top stories related to the election, such as the extreme measures election officials are taking to ensure security, Secret Service staffing issues affecting Harris and Trump’s events, and the upcoming challenges in key battleground states like Texas and Nevada. Other topics include Harris’ Election Night plans at Howard University, Trump appearing on Joe Rogan’s podcast, and Bruce Springsteen performing at Harris campaign rallies.
Overall, the newsletter provides insights into the current state of the election, polling accuracy concerns, key campaign strategies, and upcoming events on the campaign trail.
