A new shock poll - is it over for Trump?

The Telegraph
About this episode

The idea that Kamala Harris is ahead in Republican stronghold Iowa has America reeling - but how much can we read into it?


With just twenty-four hours to go until polling day, America has been sent into a frenzy with a shock poll from the Republican-held state of Iowa that puts Kamala Harris 3% ahead of Donald Trump. It wasn’t a state that was even in the conversation before, so does it mean Trump’s campaign is suffering subsidence? And can it be replicated elsewhere?


Kamal is in the studio in London and Camilla is in Washington to digest another wild weekend in the US election, and get the expert opinion on the Iowa poll from our Head of Data Ben Butcher.


Plus, Telegraph columnist and Daily T presenter Tim Stanley explains why he believes Donald Trump isn’t the monster the left portrays him as.
