Kamala Harris' Fox News Interview Wins Over Swing Voters: 'In Her Element'

One day we will wake to his obituary :-)

Kamala Harris received a better score from swing voters during her Fox News interview on Wednesday than her general popularity with this group, according to a study.

Online monitoring and analysis company Impact Social reported that 20 percent of swing voters who watched the interview had a positive impression of Harris. In comparison, 30 percent had a negative view, with the remaining 50 percent neutral.

Impact Social noted that the net score of -10 is higher than Harris's overall swing voter popularity score of -16. Thus, they claimed the event "reflects an uptick" that "will likely have a positive influence on swing voter perception."

Fox News host Bret Baier interviewed Harris on Wednesday in a sometimes testy exchange which covered her views on immigration, transgender healthcare and whether Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump represents a threat to American democracy.

The vice president's decision to appear on a conservative-leaning broadcaster was widely seen as a bid to extend her appeal against the backdrop of polling suggesting the race is too close to call.

The Impact Social analysis was drawn from an algorithm that read a "statistically representative sample" of social media posts made during the debate by those identified as swing voters. In 2016, Impact Social created a database of 40,000 key swing voters who matched a range of key characteristics.

Positive comments about Harris's performance recorded by Impact Social included "Kamala Harris is very, very good at this" and "Why is everyone surprised that @VP @KamalaHarris kicked Bret Baier's butt? She is a seasoned prosecutor. She is in her element when debating or presenting her argument."
 
Don’t know about all that but it was noteworthy that Bret Baier made an apology on Fox and admitted the video he ran on Trump’s enemy within speech was edited and did not include the later section that Harris immediately caught him on. Probably concerned about peer reviews concerning his journalistic reputation
