Harris to do more media in coming days, including NABJ interview
Vice President Harris is expected to ramp up her activity in the coming days, seeking to build off momentum from her performance in Tuesday’s debate against former President Trump.
Harris is embarking Thursday on what the campaign is calling the "New Way Forward Tour," with stops in North Carolina. She will travel to Pennsylvania on Friday while her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D), visits Michigan and Wisconsin.
The campaign is expected to launch new ads in the coming days that feature key moments from Harris's debate with Trump. The first such ad debuted late Wednesday, contrasting Trump's depiction of the country as a "failing nation" with Harris's call for a "new generation of leadership."
In addition, Harris is expected to do more media interviews, focusing on reaching voters in key battleground states.
Harris plans to do local media interviews with outlets in battleground states during her travel. She is also expected to participate in a sit-down with the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) next week, the campaign said.
Former President Trump sat for a contentious interview with NABJ reporters in late July, where he drew backlash for questioning Harris’s biracial heritage. He also criticized Harris for not attending the same event, which took place days after she replaced President Biden as the Democratic nominee.
Harris has drawn criticism from Republicans for her lack of media sit-downs since becoming the Democratic candidate. She's done one major interview, with CNN.
During Tuesday's debate, Harris managed to repeatedly get under Trump’s skin, baiting him with comments about his rally crowds, Project 2025, foreign leaders mocking him and critics such as the late Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) as she called for the country to turn the page on the former president.
A CNN rapid poll of debate watchers found that 63 percent said Harris won the debate, compared to 37 percent who said Trump won the debate.
