Mitch McCann: US Correspondent on Donald Trump edging ahead in the polls

The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Wednesdays

Donald Trump has edged ahead of Kamala Harris in the latest polls, with less than two weeks until the US election.  A Wall Street Journal poll shows the Republican two points ahead of the Democrat – a direct swap from when they last did the poll in August.  A CNBC poll also shows Trump ahead of Harris by two points.  US correspondent Mitch McCann told Mike Hosking potential reasons behind this shift are Trump's negative ads and Harris having a couple of shaky media appearances.  He says Barack Obama's former campaign manager David Axelrod described one of her answers in a CNN town hall as a word salad.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
