In an interview, Nicole Shanahan appeared to concede that their independent presidential bid was not likely to end in victory.

Kennedy has been funded by a bunch of billionaires who thought his name would funnel votes away from Biden. But the brain worms mad him weird enough that Democratic voters aren’t willing to vote for him in significant numbers.

    Recent polls I’ve seen show Harris doing as well or better without RFK.

    Yougov 8/14-16: Harris +2 with RFK, +3 without RFK

    Outward Intelligence 8/11-15: Harris +6 with or without RFK

    Emerson College 8/12-14: Harris +4 with or without RFK

    Ipsos 8/9-13: Harris +3 with RFK, +4 without RFK

      Totally fair, thanks for sharing and I love that you brought the receipts! I’m thinking of the last NYT/Sienna poll (which is kind of the gold standard) I recall. Should dive in again now that polling is a little more settled!
