Washington: In the US presidential election, Democrats and Republicans are trying to gain an edge over each other. Democratic Party candidate Kamala Harris is constantly adding supporters. More than 200 former Republicans have written an open letter in support of Kamala Harris.
He has appealed to progressive Republicans to support Kamala Harris instead of Trump. Many of these Republicans have also worked with former President George W. On the other hand, Harris' election campaign rejected Trump's claim that she has made an agreement to participate in the debate like President Joe Biden on June 27 for the presidential debate to be held on September 10. This includes not having a live audience and muting the mic when the candidate is not speaking.
No sitting vice president has been elected president in the US
Kamala Harris is trying to break the sequence of history in which only one incumbent vice president has won the presidential election since 1836. In 1988, then Vice President George H. W. Bush was elected President. Since then, no incumbent vice president has been elected President. Among the vice presidents who failed are Richard Nixon in 1960, Hubert Humphrey in 1968 and Al Gore in 2000. Meanwhile, Vice President Kamala Harris will give an interview to CNN this week for the first time since Biden withdrew from the candidacy on July 21.
Trump's troubles may increase
Former President Donald Trump's troubles may increase again in his attempt to overturn the 2020 election results. Special counsel Jack Smith on Tuesday filed a revised indictment against Trump, in which the relevant charges have been modified. Some new elements have been added to the indictment in response to the Supreme Court's exemption decision while retaining the main charges. In this, the need for a mini trial has been bypassed.
Harris and Walz will campaign by bus in Georgia
Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz will campaign by bus in Georgia on Wednesday. In the 2020 election, the Democrats won this state by a very narrow margin and this state can play a decisive role in this election. Georgia has one-third black voters.
On Wednesday itself, Harris's campaign team will launch an advertising campaign in which an attempt will be made to link Trump to Project 2025. Many of Trump's close advisors were involved in creating this project, but Trump tried to distance himself from it. This 900-page project contains many proposals such as increasing the power of the President relative to the judiciary and eliminating many rules related to the environment.
