Vice President Kamala Harris is addressing the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute's Annual Leadership Conference as her presidential campaign approaches a critical juncture, with just 48 days until Election Day. Current polling shows Harris leading former President Donald Trump by a narrow margin of 49.3% to 47.3%. As she courts Hispanic voters, Trump is also rallying in New York, focusing on issues like immigration and the economy. Meanwhile, a significant Federal Reserve announcement regarding interest rates is anticipated, which could impact voter sentiment. Harris's campaign includes a high-profile fundraising event in New York featuring celebrities such as Matt Damon and Lin-Manuel Miranda, highlighting her efforts to secure financial support as the race intensifies. The political climate remains charged as both candidates ramp up their engagements ahead of the elections.
