Kamala Harris is winning against Donald Trump in second US presidential debate 2024, predicts new poll

Kamala Harris is leading over Donald Trump in the opinion polls ahead of the US election 2024, as per a report. According to ABC News/Ipsos poll, the Democratic Presidential nominee has maintained healthy lead over Republican challenger. Harris is also predicted (43 per cent-37 per cent) to win the September 10 Presidential debate against Trump.

Donald Trump said on last Tuesday he had "reached an agreement" for a September 10 debate with Kamala Harris, two days after he threatened to pull out -- although there was no confirmation from the US vice president that a deal had been struck.

Trump posted on his Truth Social platform that the rivals had agreed that the ABC showdown would run under the same rules as CNN's June 27 debate, with no studio audience and each candidate's microphone muted when the other is speaking.


Calling ABC "by far the nastiest and most unfair newscaster in the business," Trump said the network had given him assurances that the debate in Philadelphia would be "fair and equitable."

But the Harris campaign -- which had been pushing for a clash with mics switched on throughout -- responded by accusing Trump of moving the goalposts and was coy about whether it was accepting the terms.

"Both candidates have publicly made clear their willingness to debate with unmuted mics for the duration of the debate to fully allow for substantive exchanges between the candidates -- but it appears Donald Trump is letting his handlers overrule him. Sad!" the Harris campaign said in a statement.

Trump has previously balked at taking part in the debate, which comes on the heels of Harris's lightning rise as the Democratic White House nominee after President Joe Biden stepped aside following his dismal showing in the CNN debate.
