President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris made a joint appearance in Raleigh, North Carolina, to emphasize the importance of health care in the upcoming election. The Democratic duo aimed to highlight their vision for health care and reproductive rights, contrasting it with proposals from Republicans.
Biden's visit to North Carolina comes as his campaign sees the state as a potential pickup opportunity in November's election. In the 2020 election, Biden lost North Carolina to Trump by just 1 point, making it a key battleground for the upcoming race.
During the event, Biden criticized former President Donald Trump and his administration's attempts to repeal the Affordable Care Act. Biden emphasized the importance of protecting the ACA and ensuring access to quality health care for all Americans.
The trip to North Carolina is part of the Biden campaign's strategy to engage with voters and highlight key policy issues. A recent Marist poll showed a close race in the state, with Trump receiving 51% support among registered voters compared to Biden's 48%, within the margin of error.
As the election approaches, both the Biden-Harris ticket and the Trump campaign are focusing on key issues like health care to sway undecided voters and secure support in crucial swing states like North Carolina.
