Former Republican strategist Stuart Stevens claimed Wednesday that Vice President Kamala Harris is running an outstanding campaign against former President Donald Trump.
Trump trails Harris by 0.6% in the RealClearPolling average of polls from Oct. 8 – 22, with the gap increasing to 0.8% when Green Party candidate Dr. Jill Stein, independent candidate Cornel West and Libertarian candidate Chase Oliver are included in surveys. Stevens cited the campaign’s use of Hollywood actors like “West Wing” star Bradley Whitford and “Good Wife” star Christine Baranski.

“It’s huge because there’s a special connection there. You know, when you see these performers and they come to their hometowns or they come to some place, you know, like where they grew up, they can bond on that,” Stevens said. “What it’s really saying is, you know, you and I are not that different. I’m famous, but we share the same values. Let’s work together on this. I think it’s really smart.”
“And I have to say, I think when this thing is over and done with and Harris has won, which I think she’s going to do rather comfortably, I think we’re going to look back on this as one of the most perfectly executed campaigns in modern history,” Stevens continued.
Trump leads Harris by 0.6% in polls of Pennsylvania voters from Sept. 28 to Oct. 19, according to the RealClearPolling average. Harris leads Trump by 0.3% when Stein, West and Oliver are included as options in the surveys.
Trump also leads Harris by 0.6% in polls of Michigan voters from Sept. 21 to Oct. 9, according to the RealClearPolling average. Harris has a lead of 0.5% when West, Stein and Oliver are included as options in the surveys.
In head-to-head matchups, Trump also holds slight leads in Wisconsin, Arizona, Georgia and North Carolina, according to RealClearPolling.
