Mondale Narrowly Leads Dole in Voter Preference
A Harris survey of 1516 voters shows Mondale ahead of Dole for vice president by 8 to 3 percent, a 12 point margin larger than Carter’s national lead over Ford. Mondale is favored by labor and liberal blocs, independents, professionals, higher income voters, and the educated, though familiarity with both candidates remains low. Mondale’s strength, boosted by unions and liberals, contrasts with Dole’s conservative image and a debated role as a possible “hit man” against Carter. The outcome remains uncertain with debates likely to swing second-place support and overall election dynamics.

Mondale alleged attempts to block hearings and force them behind closed doors as Dole campaigned in North Carolina. A burglary at Emmie Kranendonk’s home yielded $200 worth of camera equipment.
