Post-Debate: Undecided Voters Pick Trump As Nate Silver Sees Electoral College Path To Victory
Whatever you think of Donald Trump's performance during Monday's debate, or the fact that Kamala Harris didn't turn into a puddle of word salad before our very eyes, it didn't hurt the former president.
According to several post-debate polls, Trump not only gained swing voters, pollster Nate Silver projects that Trump will win the election.
