Vice President Kamala Harris emerged as the perceived winner of the recent presidential debate against former President Donald Trump, according to early polls and various commentators. The debate, held on Tuesday night, saw Harris outperforming expectations and resonating well with viewers. Trump, on the other hand, faced criticism for his unsubstantiated claims about immigrants eating pets in Ohio, which were dismissed by state officials. Trump's remarks on Harris's racial identity also struck a nerve at a Black church watch party. Despite the contentious nature of the debate, it appears to have had little impact on the overall voter base, with few individuals indicating a change in their voting intentions. The debate was widely viewed, with ABC reporting an average of 15.3 million viewers. Notably, Trump has expressed reluctance to participate in future debates with Harris, citing dissatisfaction with the moderators. Interestingly, 31 percent of Trump supporters deemed Harris the winner, while 60 percent of undecided voters now support Trump.
