Georgia is on Kamala Harris’ mind.

Over the past four years, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee has visited Georgia 17 times, with 15 of those visits coming after Joe Biden defeated Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election. Harris has campaigned for herself and other Democrats, promoted Biden administration initiatives such as solar power and abortion rights, and taken in a football game featuring her alma mater, Howard University, at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Most of Harris’ visits have been to Atlanta, but she has made stops in Columbus, Dalton and Savannah.

Harris stepped up the visits in 2023 as the presidential campaign began to ramp up. She has been to the battleground state 11 times in the past 18 months — including twice in a four-day span in June, when she spoke at a 100 Black Men of America conference and a summit to stop gun violence led by Atlanta-area rapper Quavo of the Migos. Biden visited Georgia twice in 2024.

Here is a look at Harris’ trips to Georgia.
