Kamala Harris and Tim Walz Campaign in Georgia Ahead of Crucial 2024 Election

Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris and running mate Tim Walz are campaigning in Georgia, a key state for the 2024 election. The duo aims to galvanize Black voters and solidify support for the Democrats. Harris has steadily gained ground in polls and amassed significant donations since her candidacy was announced.

Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz will campaign together on Wednesday in Georgia, a state that Democrats narrowly won in 2020 and could play a decisive role in this year's election. Harris aims to galvanize Black voters, which make up about one-third of Georgia's electorate.

Harris and Walz will take a bus through southern Georgia, a region known for its large Black populations. This comes after President Joe Biden dropped his reelection bid last month and endorsed Harris. Opinion polls initially showed Republican candidate Donald Trump with a clear lead in Georgia, but Harris has since gained ground.

Polls by FiveThirtyEight show Harris just behind Trump, 46.0% to 46.6% in Georgia. A new Reuters/Ipsos poll on Tuesday indicated that Harris has closed Trump's advantage on the economy and crime. Harris's campaign will culminate with a rally in the Savannah area and focus on the economy and abortion rights.
