It's Pretty Obvious That Kamala Harris Won the Debate. A Snap Poll Confirms It.

A "snap" (or flash) poll from CNN after last night's debate between Democratic candidate for president Kamala Harris and GOP candidate Donald Trump shows that, by nearly a 2-to-1 margin, Harris was the victor.

The network surveyed 605 registered voters both before and after the debate aired last night. Their favorability rating of Harris went up by 6 points after watching her, according to the poll.

If those results translate to even a small sliver of the electorate, it will be fantastic news for Harris, as the race as of right now between her and Trump, both nationally and among swing states within the Electoral College, was neck-and-neck before the debate. Even a fraction of voters basing their decision in November on this debate will help propel her to a win. 

That said, there are still about two months until the election and anything can happen between now and then...
