Vice President Kamala Harris is intensifying her efforts in the presidential race by embarking on a tour of key states alongside her running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. This tour, which will take place from Thursday through Sunday, September 15, aims to mobilize the Latino vote just after the presidential debate next Tuesday and coincides with Hispanic Heritage Month. The tour, titled 'New Path Forward,' will take Harris and Walz to crucial states in the electoral contest, such as North Carolina, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. These states are considered essential for the success of Democratic candidates in the upcoming elections, and Harris's campaign hopes to capitalize on the enthusiasm of the Latino electorate, a key group in shaping public opinion in these territories. Maca Casado, the campaign's media director, emphasized the importance of the elections by stating that "this is about two very different visions for Latino families and our country." The Harris-Walz campaign positions itself in opposition to the agenda of former President Donald Trump, who has announced his return to politics with proposals that, according to Casado, represent a setback for the Latino community. The presidential debate taking place next Tuesday is a crucial event, and Harris's campaign seeks to leverage the excitement generated by this occasion to attract more voters. The Vice President will be in North Carolina on Thursday and in Pennsylvania the following day, where she is expected to share her vision and action plan for the country's future. With early voting around the corner and less than 60 days until the elections, Harris's campaign is determined to convey a message of "opportunity" and confidence in the "American dream" to the Latino community. This message will be distributed in both English and Spanish, an effort to effectively connect with a diverse electorate. In addition to live events, the campaign will also organize over fifty Latino watch parties for the debate in various parts of the country, including Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Texas. This approach aims to create a community atmosphere and discussion around the issues affecting Latino voters. To reinforce its message, the Harris-Walz campaign will launch a new ad titled 'New Opportunity,' which will highlight the importance of strengthening the middle class through concrete proposals. These include banning price speculation on food, limiting prescription drug costs, and ending the shortage of affordable housing. The advertising, which will be tailored to the specifics of each state, is part of a $370 million investment in television and digital advertising leading up to Election Day. This effort aims not only to reach Latino voters but also a broader audience that identifies with the campaign's proposals. In the ad, Harris promises that "reducing the cost of living will be a top priority" of her administration. She also commits to ensuring that "more than a hundred million Americans will receive a tax cut," while working to address the housing crisis affecting many families in the country. The Harris-Walz tour presents a vital opportunity for the Democratic campaign, not only to reaffirm its commitment to Latino communities but also to attract undecided voters in states that could define the outcome of the elections. The Vice President's ability to connect with these audiences and offer concrete solutions will be crucial on her path to the White House. Next week will be a decisive moment in the electoral contest, and attention will focus on how the dynamics of the debate may influence the votes of millions of Americans.
