Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are doubling down on their facetime with swing state voters with less than a month left in the presidential election.
While the latest nationwide polls still show a slim, but within the margin, lead for Harris, it is virtually tied between the two candidates among black and Latino voters. A USA TODAY/Suffolk University poll found that Harris only leads among minority voters 45% to 44%.
The Harris camp rolled out a bevy of new campaign ads in Midwest and Southern states, featuring perspective black and Latino voters and the message that the Democratic party is for voters of every background.
