Former President Donald Trump maintains his strength in the polls despite a major shake-up in the 2024 campaign over the past month fueling the perception that Democrats have gained an edge in the race for the White House, a pollster told The Daily Wire in a new interview.

Brent Buchanan, president and founder of Cygnal, spoke with “Morning Wire” co-host John Bickley about what is happening in the polls after Vice President Kamala Harris took the place of President Joe Biden atop the Democratic Party’s ticket.

Shrugging off the view that Harris has been surging ahead of Trump in the last few weeks, Buchanan said, “the bigger narrative that I think is being totally missed in the media right now is that Trump’s actually still holding his own and doing well. Kamala just appears to be doing better compared to Biden because his floor was so low.”

He added, “It was unrealistically, artificially low in the sense that there were going to be plenty of voters who did not like the guy showed up, held their nose and voted for Biden anyways, and it just wasn’t showing up in polling, but there’s been no degradation of Trump’s ballot share in these polls since they pulled in a swap-a-roo at the top of the ticket.”
