Good morning. It's Saturday, September the 14th, with 52 days left to go until Election Day and one debate in the books.

0:15.9

Kamala Harris is touting her presidential bid as, quote, a new way forward, while Donald Trump is starting to sound like a broken record.

In the day since Tuesday night's debate, the Democratic nominee has returned to the campaign trail

and shifted her focus back to the swing states that could be key to her victory in November.
