Vice President Kamala Harris is stepping into the spotlight as the Democratic candidate for the upcoming presidential election, following President Joe Biden's withdrawal from the race. With the election set for November 5, Harris is taking bold steps to rally support and establish her presence in the political landscape.
In a recent poll conducted by Reuters, Harris has gained a slight edge over Donald Trump, leading by two percentage points. This marks a significant shift, as Biden previously trailed Trump by two points. The dynamics of the race are shifting, and both campaigns are closely monitoring polling results from key swing states, including Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
Harris's campaign strategy includes leveraging social media, particularly TikTok, to engage younger voters. However, experts express skepticism about her effectiveness on the platform compared to Trump, who has a well-established presence. Social media professor Andrew Selepak emphasizes the challenges Harris faces in matching Trump's notoriety and navigating the complexities of TikTok's role in the election.
