Harris Campaigns in Georgia, Seeking to Boost Voter Turnout in Key Battleground State

SAVANNAH, Ga.—Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic Party’s presidential candidate, urged supporters to work hard for another victory in 2024 while cautioning against complacency during a campaign speech on Aug. 29 in Georgia, a key battleground state that President Joe Biden narrowly won in 2020.

“We’re here to speak the truth. And one of the things that we know [is that] this is going to be a tight race until the very end,” Harris said. “So, let’s not pay too much attention to the polls, because we are running it as the underdog.”

In her speech, Harris framed her White House bid as a “fight for America’s future.”

“We fight for a future with affordable childcare, paid leave, and affordable healthcare,” she said, outlining her campaign promises such as offering a tax break to 100 million Americans, including $6,000 for families with newborn babies.
