As the morning of debate day eve dawns, all eyes are on Philadelphia for a potentially game-changing moment in the closest election season ever seen. Recent polling by the New York Times and Siena College reveals that 28% of likely voters feel the need to learn more about Vice President Harris, while 9% express the same sentiment about Donald Trump.
Vice President Harris is currently in Pittsburgh, intensively preparing for the upcoming debate. She has been meticulously studying the former president's past debate performances, reviewing briefing books containing his previous comments and insults towards her. Additionally, she has sought guidance from Hillary Clinton and President Biden, both seasoned debaters against Trump. Engaging in rigorous mock debate sessions, her primary objective is to present a compelling case against the former president and advocate for a departure from Trump-era politics.
Post-debate, the campaign has already outlined a strategic plan branded as a 'new way forward.' Scheduled events in Pennsylvania and North Carolina, along with campaign stops in the Midwest by Governor Walz and their spouses, aim to establish a presence in every battleground state. Despite criticism from Republicans questioning her credibility to lead change while in the current administration, the campaign remains steadfast in its mission to sway battleground state voters, who are deemed pivotal in determining the election outcome.
Both candidates are vying to position themselves as agents of change in a critical juncture of the campaign.
