Summary

After months of rarely addressing the media, Vice President Kamala Harris treated last week like a press tour — making high-profile appearances on ABC's 'The View,' CBS' '60 Minutes,' the podcast 'Call Her Daddy,' and more. As national polls remain incredibly tight, many Americans are now watching to see if this final campaign push could be helpful or detrimental to the Democratic nominee. Washington Examiner White House Reporter Haisten Willis discusses the Vice President's media appearances, how former President Trump is choosing to campaign in the final weeks before the election, and what issues he believes the race could ultimately come down to. In the 2020 Presidential Election, President Biden won the state of Georgia by a razor thin margin. This year, Democrats are hoping to expand Vice President Harris' Electoral College map by campaigning heavily in Georgia. But in a state that still favors Republicans, can former President Trump revive enthusiasm enough to win back the 16 electoral votes? Atlanta Journal Constitution Washington Correspondent Tia Mitchell discusses the factors that make Georgia a swing state and shares how local politics will influence which candidate comes out on top.

0:30.4	So that may have been the strategy.
0:31.6	Again, the thing I wonder about though is why she started doing these at all when she wasn't before
0:37.0	I'm Jared Halpern. Our swing through the swing states makes a stop in Georgia where President Biden saw his most narrow victory
0:45.4	four years ago ushering in an unexpected blue wave.
0:49.8	The question is can that level of enthusiasm and engagement continue this year when the
0:58.8	presidential race with Harrison Trump is now the only big ticket race on the ballot.
1:04.4	That's what's different than four years ago.
1:06.7	This is the Fox News rundown from Washington. After weeks of conducting very few interviews, Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign
1:23.6	switched gears and she did several last week. Howard Stern, the late show with

1:34.4	and she was pushed on topics including the economy and the border. We have
1:38.3	cut the flow of illegal immigration by half. We have done that. Should you have cut the flow of fentanyl by half?
1:46.4	But we need Congress to be able to act
