Vice President Kamala Harris, energized by her debate performance against former President Donald Trump, is launching her 'New Way Forward' tour with rallies in North Carolina. On Thursday, she addressed large crowds in Charlotte and Greensboro, emphasizing the critical stakes of the 2024 election and presenting herself as the 'underdog'. Harris challenged Trump to a second debate, which he declined, citing unfair moderation. She highlighted her economic policies, including tax credits for startups and expanding the child tax credit, while criticizing Trump’s potential return to power. With North Carolina being a key battleground state, her campaign aims to turn it blue for the first time since 2008. Harris's efforts reflect a tight national race, with recent polls indicating a virtual tie in North Carolina.
