Harris Leads By 6 In New ABC/WaPo Poll, Winning The House With Adam Gray (CA-13), Lots To Celebrate This Week!!!!

Welcome New Subscribers/Our Next Winning The House Thursday is Aug 29 For Josh RIley (NY-19)

Happy Sunday all, and another good Sunday it is! Let’s get to it:

More Encouraging Polling As We Head Into The Convention - Yesterday I wrote about recent NYT polling of the battlegrounds which showed Harris leading in 5 of the 7 states (AZ, MI, NC, PA, WI) and in far better shape than Trump:

Today we got another encouraging poll, this one from ABC/Washington Post/Ipsos, which found Harris leading by 6 among likely voters, 51%-45%:

We head into our Convention this week with a lot of momentum, an electric ticket, a polling lead and millions of Americans ready to help close out this election strong. It’s an exciting time, and I am really proud to be in this fight with all of you.

I just released two video presentations that may be of interest to you in the coming days:

I head to the Convention tomorrow morning and am not really sure what my posting will be like this week. I will try to check in daily but the posts are not likely to be my traditional posts. I am having a reception at the Convention for Hopium paid subscribers and invited guests so if you will be in Chicago and want to join us make sure you are a current paid subscriber here. The good news is that there is 10% off an annual paid Hopium subscription through Thursday. I am really looking forward to getting together with folks this week!

My Winning The House Interview With Adam Gray (CA-13), Supporting Our Hopium-Backed Candidates and State Parties: Sharing my latest Winning The House candidate interview, this one, above, with Adam Gray in CA-13. Adam lost this rural district by just 500 votes in 2022 and is in a strong position to flip the seat this time. Watch our discussion and you can support Adam by donating to all 11 of our candidates, donating to Adam directly, volunteering or learning more about his candidacy.

Our next Winning The House Thursday phonebanking and postcarding Thursday will be for Josh Riley on Thursday, August 29th. We had a great turnout for Will Rollins on Thursday. I hope you will plan spending your Thursday nights with us in the home stretch!

Yesterday, I offered an in-depth post on the strategy behind our candidate and state party endorsements, including our Presidential battleground “check” and “checkmate” strategy. 32 days to go before early voting starts and we just need to leave it all out there on the playing field, together:
