As the race to the presidency intensifies, Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are honing their strategies for the final two-month sprint to Election Day. Both candidates are focusing their efforts on seven key states, pouring significant resources into targeting voters who are just beginning to engage with the election process.

Their campaigns are prioritizing three main issues - the economy, immigration, and abortion - amidst a backdrop of contentious debates surrounding character, culture, and democracy.

The upcoming debate between the candidates, scheduled for next week, marks their first face-to-face meeting. Pennsylvania, a crucial swing state, will kick off in-person absentee voting shortly after, with early voting commencing in several states by the end of the month.

Harris' Campaign Allocates $25 Million to Support Down-Ballot Democrats

Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign has announced a substantial investment of nearly $25 million to bolster down-ballot Democrats. This move, considered the largest-ever transfer by a national campaign and the Democratic National Committee, underscores Harris' confidence as the election draws near.

The funds will be distributed to various Democratic committees focused on electing congressional and state-level representatives, with significant amounts allocated to key organizations such as the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee and Democratic Governors Associations.

Harris' Economic Agenda Ad Targets Trump's Policies

Harris' campaign has unveiled a new advertisement highlighting her economic proposals and drawing a contrast with former President Donald Trump's agenda. The ad emphasizes initiatives such as federal price gouging legislation and measures to combat corporate speculation in the housing market, positioning Harris against Trump's advocacy for corporate tax cuts.

This ad forms part of a comprehensive television and digital advertising campaign set to run until Election Day, as both candidates intensify their efforts to secure victory.
