The Democratic National Convention is underway in Chicago, where Vice President Kamala Harris is attempting to energize support for her campaign. Despite the festive atmosphere, many businesses are boarded up, and the event is marked by a heavy police presence, suggesting underlying tensions. Harris has faced criticism for a lack of detailed policy proposals on her campaign website, with some analysts describing her recent economic proposals as insufficient or gimmicky. Polls indicate that a significant portion of voters remain unaware of her positions, potentially benefiting her campaign as she tries to maintain enthusiasm while distancing herself from President Biden's unpopularity. Key pledges include addressing price gouging, tax cuts for families, and codifying abortion rights, though skeptics warn that these proposals may struggle in Congress. As the convention unfolds, the challenge for Harris will be to clarify her policy agenda and connect with voters ahead of the upcoming election.
