Kamala Harris Launches Georgia Campaign Bus Tour

Vice President Kamala Harris has launched a bus tour in Georgia, aiming to strengthen support in the crucial battleground state ahead of the November presidential election against former President Donald Trump. Joined by running mate Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota, Harris's campaign seeks to connect with rural voters, particularly Black and working-class communities, as they prepare for a rally in Savannah. This marks the first major Democratic campaign effort in southern Georgia since Bill Clinton's 1992 run, reflecting a strategic push to limit losses in traditionally Republican areas while bolstering expected support in metro Atlanta. Polls indicate a tight race, with Harris and Trump nearly neck-and-neck, underscoring the importance of Georgia, which Biden narrowly won in 2020. With a robust in-state campaign operation and increased energy since Biden's withdrawal, Harris's team is optimistic about their chances. The tour coincides with a significant television ad campaign highlighting the stakes of the election and Trump's conservative agenda.
