0:37Now PlayingVice President Kamala Harris is kicking off a push to compete against Republican Donald Trump in a wider swath of battleground states with a Tuesday rally in Atlanta.
Harris inherited a bleak electoral map from President Joe Biden. Before withdrawing from the race, polls showed the president trailing in nearly every swing state and his unpopularity largely confined him to a narrow path to victory dependent on holding a trio of key Great Lakes states.
The dynamic has shifted with Harris atop the ticket. Enjoying a burst of voter enthusiasm and campaign cash, the vice president is vying for Sun Belt states that Democrats had all but written off — Georgia, Arizona and Nevada — as well as the Democrats’ so-called “Blue Wall” of Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.
Harris’ event in Georgia’s largest city is her first major effort to put a larger group of states back in play since launching her campaign on July 21. Rapper Megan Thee Stallion plans to make an appearance at the rally, she announced Monday on her Instagram account.
