Just in:Harris and Trump share dueling economic visions as they campaign in key states

Published

on

Harris interview: In an interview with MSNBC, Vice President Kamala Harris said former President Donald Trump’s economic proposals would “invite a recession by the middle of next year,” while economists agree her plan would “grow the economy.”

• Economic pitch voters: Harris and Trump campaigned in battleground states today as they make their economic pitch to voters ahead of Election Day. Harris pledged, if elected, to strengthen manufacturing and the workforce. Trump spoke in North Carolina about prioritizing US goods.

• Trump to return to shooting site: Trump officially announced he is returning to the site of his assassination attempt for a rally on October 5. This comes after a bipartisan Senate committee revealed in a new report Wednesday that Secret Service agents failed to take charge of decision-making for security at the July Pennsylvania rally.

• With voting already underway in several states, visit CNN’s voter handbook and read up on the 2024 candidates.

Third party and independent presidential candidates Cornel West and Claudia De la Cruz have been disqualified from receiving votes for president in Georgia, the Georgia Supreme Court ruled on Wednesday.

The Georgia Supreme Court upholds rulings by Fulton County judges in favor of Democrat-supported challenges to keep both West and De la Cruz off of ballots. The decision reversed Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger’s decision last month that West, who is running as an independent, and De la Cruz, the Party for Socialism and Liberation’s nominee who had been on the state’s ballot as an independent, would be included on Georgia’s presidential ballot in November.

Because it is too late to reprint ballots, county election offices are already testing equipment, and overseas and military ballots have already been mailed out, all Georgia ballots will still have West and De la Cruz’ names on them. Signs at each precincts polling location will have signs posted informing voters they have been disqualified and that votes for them won’t count.

Raofensperger’s Office did not immediately respond to CNN’s request for comment. CNN is reaching out to West and De la Cruz campaigns for comment.

Georgia is one of the states where Democrats challenged third party and independent candidates from being included on presidential ballots. Democrats argued that both West and De la Cruz should be removed because their electors didn’t file petitions in their own names.

Raffensperger intervened, pushing to keep all the candidates on the ballot, until the courts overruled his decision.

Ohio Sen. JD Vance defended his upcoming debate against Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz next week, despite his running mate, Donald Trump, saying it is “too late” to debate Vice President Kamala Harris again since voting has already started.

Asked if he thinks his debating Walz is “bad for America” based on what Trump has said about his own prospects for an October debate, Vance answered: “Well, the president already did a debate. I thought he did a hell of a job.”

Vance claimed that the “majority” of undecided voters say they’re voting for Trump after watching him in previous debates, saying “if a majority of undecided voters are voting for one guy, I’d say that guy won the debate.”

Harris announced over the weekend that she agreed to participate in a second debate hosted by CNN on October 23. Trump told a crowd in North Carolina that would be “too late” to debate in late October after early voting has begun.

In response to another question about how he’s preparing for the debate against Walz, Vance said that he views it as an opportunity show that the “the team of substance, the team that actually has a record that we’re proud of instead of running away from, and the team that actually has a plan is the team of Trump-Vance.”

Asked if he thinks his debating Walz is “bad for America” based on what Trump has said about his own prospects for an October debate, Vance answered: “Well, the president already did a debate. I thought he did a hell of a job.”

Vance claimed that the “majority” of undecided voters say they’re voting for Trump after watching him in previous debates, saying “if a majority of undecided voters are voting for one guy, I’d say that guy won the debate.”

“This is why Kamala Harris is desperate to do this again, because she knows that she’s losing, and when you’re running a losing campaign, you throw everything against the wall,”

Vance said.

Harris announced over the weekend that she agreed to participate in a second debate hosted by CNN on October 23. Trump told a crowd in North Carolina that would be “too late” to debate in late October after early voting has begun.

In response to another question about how he’s preparing for the debate against Walz, Vance said that he views it as an opportunity show that the “the team of substance, the team that actually has a record that we’re proud of instead of running away from, and the team that actually has a plan is the team of Trump-Vance.”

He said he and Trump speak to Americans “like they’re citizens,” while arguing Harris speaks to voters “like they’re children,” and said he hopes to communicate to the national audience “how I think we can make their lives better” through policy.

Vance also brought up the vice president’s first solo network sit-down interview with MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle, which aired today as Vance was speaking in Michigan.

He said when Harris is asked to lay out specific plans to curb inflation, “Kamala will say, ‘Well, did you know that I grew up in a middle class family? I had a very nice lawn back there in Berkeley, California.’ It’s like, well, that might be true. What the hell does that have to do with lowering inflation?”
