Future Forward's Chauncey McLean Warns Democrats of Closer Races in Key States
In a recent event linked to the Democratic National Convention, Chauncey McLean, president of Future Forward, a super PAC supporting Kamala Harris, shared that their internal polling is less optimistic than public polls. This warning comes as Harris leads in national polls and battleground state polls, reshaping the race against Donald Trump.
Future Forward has a significant polling operation and plans to spend over $250 million on advertising from Labor Day to Election Day. McLean highlighted the importance of states like Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Georgia for Harris to secure a victory.
Despite the momentum among young voters of color, McLean emphasized the need for Harris to rebuild the coalition that brought Biden to victory in 2020. Detailed policy positions and concrete examples of economic improvement will be crucial for Harris to differentiate herself from Biden.
In conclusion, with the race tightening, Harris must focus on key states and engaging with voters to secure a path to the White House. Stay tuned for more updates on this critical election race.
