Kamala Harris will be aggressive against Donald Trump on a post-debate campaign tour of two key states that will help decide the election.
She will even grant more media interviews (after facing repeated criticism that she has not held a formal press conference since she was the Democratic nominee) and will send her representatives around the country in the coming days.
Her new “aggressive phase” will include campaign stops in North Carolina on Thursday and Pennsylvania on Friday. Her campaign will also release a series of new ads featuring key moments from the debate, where she repeatedly irritated Trump.
Meanwhile, Trump is heading west. He will campaign in Arizona on Thursday. He will hold a press conference in Los Angeles on Friday and then a rally in Nevada that evening.
Polls show a majority of viewers believe Harris won Tuesday night’s presidential debate. Now it’s a question whether she can maintain that momentum.
Harris’ team is calling it “jumpstarting her New Way Forward Tour” and it includes “launching a series of new television and digital ads featuring key moments from the debate, increased media engagement, and sending surrogates and supporters to battleground states to share Harris’ debate message,” her campaign said.
Tim Walz, his running mate, will also make more media engagements as part of his strategy.
Harris, meanwhile, will grant additional interviews to local media in the battleground states in the coming days, and next week she is expected to participate in a debate with journalists from the National Association of Black Journalists.
It’s an effort by the whole team.
Walz will campaign in Michigan on Thursday and Friday. He will be in Wisconsin on Saturday.
Doug Emhoff will campaign in Arizona and Nevada on Thursday.
Gwen Walz will campaign in Manchester, New Hampshire, on Thursday and in Maine on Friday.
