Contributing sentiments towards policy:

70% : Again using FiveThirtyEight averages, Harris leads Trump by 3.2 percent nationally (47.2 to 43.9 percent); her lead was 2.9 percent the day the DNC began.
61% : Other battlegrounds are raging as well, with Trump leading in Arizona by 0.3 percent (45.8 to 45.5 percent) and in North Carolina by 0.4 percent (46.2 to 45.8 percent), while Harris leads in Michigan by 2.2 percent (46.5 to 44.3 percent), in Nevada by 0.7 percent (45.9 to 45.2 percent), and in Wisconsin by 3.4 percent (47.6 to 44.3 percent).
58% : And in 2020, Trump came very close to winning despite again trailing his opponent in favorability (Trump's ratio was 41 to 57 percent compared to Biden's 46 to 50 percent, again according to Gallup).
54% : In 2016, so-called "double haters" (voters with an unfavorable opinion of both candidates) represented a robust 18 percent of the electorate, and Trump won them by 17 points.
43% : But there was something else going on underneath the surface in the two previous elections involving Trump:
39% : But flip the basically tied Georgia and Pennsylvania, and Trump would have 281 electoral votes and the presidency.
23% : A mid-August Monmouth poll showed the percentage of double haters dropping by more than half (to a manageable 8 percent) with Harris replacing Biden, and this time the Democrat was winning over half of them (with only 11 percent favoring Trump and roughly a third refusing to support Harris or Trump).
10% : In 2016, Trump defeated Hillary Clinton despite holding a significantly worse favorability ratio (per Gallup, 36 to 61 percent) than his opponent (47 to 52 percent).
