Harris, Trump Face Off in Crucial Presidential Debate: What to Watch

The upcoming debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump in Pennsylvania marks a pivotal moment in the 2024 presidential race.

This debate comes at a critical time, as Pennsylvania, a key battleground state, could determine the election outcome.

Both candidates will face questions about the economy, immigration, national security, and healthcare, with Trump's previous administration's policies likely coming under scrutiny from Harris.

From a strategic perspective, Trump will likely attempt to frame Harris as part of a failing status quo, while Harris must assert her ability to lead and distance herself from criticisms of the Biden administration's handling of key issues like inflation and foreign policy.

In the latest polling data ahead of the 2024 U.S. presidential election, Kamala Harris holds a slight lead over Donald Trump in key battleground states. The poll shows a 2-point lead for Harris across all swing states, with specific advantages in states like Wisconsin (+8), Pennsylvania (+4), and Nevada (+4). Meanwhile, the candidates are tied in Arizona, and Harris holds narrow leads in Georgia and Michigan.

Regarding economic issues, voters trust Harris more than Trump on topics like healthcare costs, unemployment, and good job availability. However, Trump's strength lies in economic areas like stock market performance and gas prices.
