Vice President Kamala Harris will return to Atlanta on Friday to speak to the annual conference of the 100 Black Men of America as Democrats aim to shore up support from the party’s base.
It’s the latest in a string of stops in Georgia by Harris and President Joe Biden as both parties fight for the state’s 16 electoral votes. Former President Donald Trump has also made multiple stops in Georgia, which Republicans consider a must-win state.
Harris’ visit is part of a tour focused on economic development that also includes a stop this week in North Carolina, another Democratic target in November. She kicked off that tour in Atlanta in April with discussions with Black business leaders. Friday’s visit will mark her fourth to the state this year.
