The interview, conducted by Dana Bash, CNN’s chief political correspondent and anchor, will be broadcast at 9 p.m. ET on Thursday. This interview takes place as the candidates start a bus tour across Georgia, a key battleground state, and marks Harris’s first detailed on-the-record conversation with a journalist since President Joe Biden withdrew from his re-election bid and endorsed her on July 21.
In the 37 days since her campaign began, Harris has experienced a surge of enthusiasm and support, notably at the convention in Chicago. However, her lack of a formal press conference or interview has attracted criticism from Republican opponents. The interview is part of Harris’s commitment to have a sit-down with the media before the end of August.
