Why Harris's debate win won't matter on Election Day

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

61% : On the economy, Trump is preferred over her by 10 points, according to the Pew Research.
42% : Being the change candidate would validate her campaign's main assertion that voters need to turn the page on Trump.
42% : This may help explain a recent New York Times-Sienna poll that found Trump is seen as the candidate of change by 53 percent of voters polled, compared to 25 percent for Harris.
40% : But this was an exceedingly challenging task for Harris because she is the incumbent vice president; she already has the power to change things right now, as Trump highlighted in his closing statement.
17% : Strategically, Harris needed to use the debate to establish clear differences with Trump on two key issues: economy and immigration.
