Vice President Kamala Harris is scheduled to visit Georgia tomorrow. This will be her first stop in the Peach State since becoming the presumptive Democratic nominee last week. According to the Georgia press secretary for Harris for President, Vice President Harris will be visiting Atlanta but no further details have been released.
This is not Harris’s first visit to the state – she has made 17 stops during the course of Biden’s administration – but it is her first visit following President Biden’s decision to withdrawal his bid for reelection just eight days ago.
As a highly sought-after state for both side’s of the aisle this year, Georgia will be a focus of Harris’s campaign as she aims to mobilize Southern Black voters. Prior to his withdrawal, President Biden was focusing his reelection efforts in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan. Harris is pivoting and instead focusing on mobilizing Black voters across the South including those in Georgia.
As polls, such as the one by Emerson College released last week, show Harris two points behind former President Trump, Georgia’s 16 electoral votes are not to be taken for granted by any candidate. While Georgians chose a member of the Democratic Party for president in 2020, that was the first time they had done so since 1992.
