Summary

As Election Day approaches, both candidates focus on campaigning in crucial battleground states like Georgia, and North Carolina. The Bible Belt region will play a critical role in determining the next president. Georgia is considered a "purple" state following President Joe Biden's win in 2020, and former President Donald Trump is striving to win it back. Tia Mitchell, Washington Correspondent for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, joins to discuss what each candidate needs to do to win over voters in the Peach State and why the economy is such an important issue for its residents. The Sunbelt states of Arizona and Nevada will be crucial players in determining the winner of the 2024 election. With top issues like the border being prominent in the region -- where are voters standing now that the race is between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris? And how will both candidates embracing the 'no tax on tips' proposal impact voters in cities like Las Vegas, where the service and hospitality industries have major influence? The Hill National Political Reporter Julia Manchester breaks down the political dynamics in the region, the ways Republicans and Democrats are aiming to make their case to Sunbelt voters, and how other issues like abortion play heavily in states like these.
