Since Joe Biden left the race and endorsed Kamala Harris, her approval ratings have significantly increased, from the mid-30s to the mid-40s. This shift may be due to several factors, including increased willingness of Democrats to participate in polls, and a change in her support base, with Harris gaining younger voters and voters of color while losing some older, white voters.
  • Harris's approval rating increased from mid-30s to mid-40s.
  • Harris's support base is shifting towards younger voters and voters of color.
