Poll: Majority of voters believe Tara Reade but say it will not impact their vote
By Jonathan Easley - 05/18/20 12:32 PM EDT

A majority of voters say they believe Tara Reade’s allegation of sexual assault against former Vice President Joe Biden but most say that it will not impact how they vote in the November election.

The latest Harvard CAPS-Harris Poll finds that 55 percent of voters say they believe Reade, against 45 percent who say they do not believe she is telling the truth.  Seventy-eight percent of Republicans believe Reade, while 66 percent Democrats do not believe her. Fifty-six percent of independents believe Reade’s allegation.

About two-thirds of Democrats say the allegation will not impact how they vote on Election Day. Fifty-six percent of independents said the allegation will not impact how they vote.


Biden leads President Trump in the poll 53 percent to 47 percent, with 88 percent of Democrats and 53 percent of independents saying they’ll vote for Biden over Trump.

The Harvard CAPS/Harris Poll survey was conducted online within the U.S. among a representative sample of 1,854 registered voters from May 13 to May 14 by The Harris Poll.

Results were weighted for age within gender, region, race/ethnicity, marital status, household size, income, employment, education, political party and political ideology where necessary to align them with their actual proportions in the population. Propensity score weighting was also used to adjust for respondents’ propensity to be online.

Of course not; the goal is to get rid of Trump, just like the goal in '16 was to stop Hillary.

Well, had I answered the pollsters' "Will it affect your vote" question, I would say it would not. Because I would not vote for Biden, period.
