A majority of Americans lack confidence in Vice President Kamala Harris' capacity to serve as president, according to a poll conducted by the Trafalgar Group in partnership with the Convention of States Action (COSA).

Of the 1,161 likely general election voters surveyed, 63.6% stated they were not confident that Harris was prepared to be president, with  58.6% of that group stating they were "not confident at all."

"Our last poll found that most Americans don’t believe Joe Biden is actually running the country, and today we’re learning voters think Kamala Harris’ tenure as vice president has been a disaster and she’s absolutely not ready to step in and take his place. Washington, D.C. has never been more radically out of step with the will of the American people than right now,” Mark Meckler, President of COSA stated on the organization's website.

While the findings varied by party membership, they all showed a widespread lack of trust in Harris, with 42.6 % of Democrats, 88.4% of Republicans and 61.8% of Independents or third-party members expressing doubts about her capacity to serve as president.

Harris County backed President Joe Biden and Harris over former President Donald Trump and former Vice President Mike Pence during the 2020 presidential election. With 918,193 votes cast, the Democratic ticket garnered almost 56% of the vote.

“Our message to America is this: Washington doesn’t care what you think," Meckler said. "Get the attention of those who do. Make sure your governor, state representative and local elected officials know where you stand. They can actually deliver for you, and will pay attention to your priorities.”

COSA is a grass-roots political movement in the United States with over 5 million followers whose primary objective is to hold an Article V Convention of the States in order to propose amendments to the United States Constitution.

According to its website, COSA only pushes for reforms that would limit the federal government's size and reach.
