The Democratic nominee and her running mate sat down with CNN’s Dana Bash to discuss their plans for the presidency.
Democratic nominee Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz have appeared on CNN for their first major in-depth interview since launching their bid for the United States presidency.
Harris, in particular, has faced scrutiny for avoiding a major media interview since announcing her candidacy late last month.
But on Thursday, she and Walz met CNN anchor Dana Bash in the coastal city of Savannah for an hour-long interview, as she campaigned across the battleground state of Georgia.
Harris quickly tried to establish her bona fides as a unifying candidate, in an attempt to draw a distinction with her Republican rival, former President Donald Trump.
“I believe it is important to build consensus, and it is important to find a common place of understanding of where we can actually solve problems,” Harris said as she sat across from Bash in Kim’s Cafe, a family-owned restaurant in Savannah.
