Kamala Harris addresses campaign event in Savannah before upcoming debate
On the final day of her bus tour in Georgia, Vice President Kamala Harris spoke at a campaign event in Savannah on Thursday, August 29. Later that evening, she delivered her remarks before participating in a joint interview with her running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz.
Ahead of her upcoming debate with former president Donald Trump on September 10, Harris plans to use her interview with CNN's Dana Bash to demonstrate her political acumen and address criticism of avoiding unscripted settings.
However, there are inherent risks as her campaign seeks to leverage the momentum from the recent Democratic National Convention and the subsequent ticket reshuffle following Joe Biden's resignation.
