We're getting a much clearer picture of what the presidential race will look like after Joe Biden's exit.

A brand new poll from the Wall Street Journal shows Kamala Harris gaining back nearly all of Biden's losses against Donald Trump ... but she's in for a tough race herself.  This will not be a cakewalk election for either candidate.

KNX chief correspondent Charles Feldman talked with Wall Street Journal national political reporter John McCormick about polling that's so new, they've barely begun analyzing it.

Bad news for deli sandwich lovers.

A listeria outbreak traced to liverwurst from the Boar's Head brand is responsible for dozens of hospitalizations and likely two deaths.

A recent Ohio State study estimated that food-borne illness from leafy greens alone cost Americans over 5-billion-dollars each year.  What can consumers do to protect themselves?

KNX News chief correspondent Charles Feldman talked with James Rogers at Consumer Reports.  Rogers tells us it doesn't take much food contamination to make a lot of people very sick.

According to the CDC ... the food type that's most prone to foodborne bacteria is...

Vice President Kamala Harris has seen a surge of support from younger voters since she joined the presidential race.

And once British pop star Charli xCx declared that Harris "IS brat" ... a reference to her new smash hit summer album ... the Harris campaign embraced the endorsement, the Gen Z love ... AND all of the internet memes ... that came along with it.

While having young voters in her corner will help, does Kamala Harris risk becoming seen as too viral and too associated with pop culture?

KNX chief correspondent Charles Feldman talked with Kurt Bardella.  He was a Republican strategist and congressional staffer who's since crossed over and now advises the Democratic National Committee.  Charles asked Kurt whether the Harris campaign has been too eager to be a hip campaign.

In the latest polling, Vice President Harris has opened up a 20-point lead over Donald Trump among voters aged 18 to 34.
