“Despite gaining a post-convention edge in polls, Jen O’Malley Dillon, chair of the Harris-Walz campaign, says in a memo out Sunday — ‘The State of the Race 65 Days Out’ — that her candidate is the underdog,” Axios reports.
From the memo: “Make no mistake: we head into the final stretch of this race as the clear underdogs.
Donald Trump has a motivated base of support, with more support and higher favorability than he has had at any point since 2020.”More: “Vice President Harris will face Trump on the debate stage, where we expect him to be a formidable opponent. In 2020, the election came down to about 40,000 votes across the battleground states. This November, we anticipate margins to be similarly razor-thin.”
