Voters over 70 are backing Harris over Trump, 51 to 48 percent, Emerson College poll finds

A new poll shows some baby boomers and members of the Silent Generation are switching allegiances from former President Donald Trump to Vice President Kamala Harris.

The Emerson College poll released Thursday  shows voters over 70 backing Harris over Trump 51 to 48 percent. That’s a small but positive shift for Harris, as last month, 50 percent of the group supported Trump while 48 percent backed President Joe Biden, who dropped out of the race and endorsed Harris last month.

The group includes some baby boomers, who were born between 1946 and 1964, and the Silent Generation, born between 1925 and 1945.

    You sound more like an agitator trying to sow resentment than someone who actually believes in liberal values.

    There is a group that masquerades as “leftist” but they don’t actually believe in any leftist ideals. The only thing they care about is “Democrats bad”, and they want to see Democrats fail. Everything else is secondary. They’d rather see Trump win so they can say “I told you so” instead of seeing things get even a little bit better.
