Now, the rise in optimism — driven almost entirely by a change in mood for Democrats — has replaced it as the most-cited feeling about the election to 62%, up from 49% in June. Those feelings of renewed excitement and optimism are reflected in the head-to-head competition between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump among likely voters in Iowa, where an energized Democratic base has helped cut into Trump’s previously overwhelming lead.
