Oct 24, V7N- In a recent town hall in Pennsylvania, Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris emphasized that her administration would differ from President Joe Biden's, as she seeks to distance herself from him with less than two weeks until the November 5 election. Harris's remarks come as polls indicate that Biden's presidency may be a hindrance to her campaign, with voters looking for a new direction.
During the CNN-hosted town hall, Harris stated, "My administration will not be a continuation of the Biden administration," underscoring her unique perspective and leadership style. She emphasized that she represents a new generation and called for innovative approaches on several key issues, such as tackling high grocery prices and ending the war in the Middle East.
Harris also fielded questions about her shifting stance on fracking, asserting that she no longer supports banning it, a reversal from her 2019 presidential run. When asked about potential reforms to the Supreme Court, she suggested that she is open to the idea but that more study is needed on the specifics.
Meanwhile, Republican candidate Donald Trump campaigned in Georgia, rallying Christian evangelicals and urging early voting. Trump spoke at two events in Georgia, sharing the stage with former Fox News host Tucker Carlson and country music star Jason Aldean. Trump noted the record levels of early voting and expressed optimism about his campaign.
Both Harris and Trump continue to focus on critical battleground states, including Pennsylvania and Georgia, as early voting sets new records. According to the University of Florida's Election Lab, nearly 25 million Americans have already cast their ballots.
Harris also seized on comments made by Trump's former White House chief of staff, John Kelly, who described Trump as meeting the "general definition of fascist." Harris called these remarks "deeply troubling," while Trump’s campaign dismissed them as "debunked stories."
With Harris holding a slight lead in the latest Reuters/Ipsos poll, the race remains highly competitive, and both candidates are intensifying their efforts to sway undecided voters in the final days of the campaign.
