The US pollster who says an election landslide is still possible
Listen now
Description
And lessons from cycling 4000 miles across America. All the polls put next week’s US presidential election on a knife edge. But Republican pollster Kristen Soltis Anderson says the result could still be a shock landslide - for either candidate. She explains what pollsters are missing, Trump’s enduring popularity, and why independents think Harris is 'deceptive'. Plus, travel journalist Simon Parker travelled 4000 miles through 11 US states, from Cape Flattery on the Pacific Ocean to Florida’s Key West - all on a bicycle. He shares with Kamal and Camilla what he learned about politics across the pond. Visit the Telegraph Bookshop to buy Simon’s book A Ride Across America with 15% off.
