After months of rarely addressing the media, Vice President Kamala Harris treated last week like a press tour — making high-profile appearances on ABC’s ‘The View,’ CBS’ ’60 Minutes,’ the podcast ‘Call Her Daddy,’ and more. As national polls remain incredibly tight, many Americans are now watching to see if this final campaign push could be helpful or detrimental to the Democratic nominee. Washington Examiner White House Reporter Haisten Willis discusses the Vice President’s media appearances, how former President Trump is choosing to campaign in the final weeks before the election, and what issues he believes the race could ultimately come down to.

Atlanta Journal Constitution Washington Correspondent Tia Mitchell discusses the factors that make Georgia a swing state and shares how local politics will influence which candidate comes out on top.
