Kamala Harris's Media Strategy

Kamala Harris's recent media blitz aims to expand her voter base ahead of the upcoming election. By appearing on a variety of platforms, from traditional news outlets to niche podcasts, she seeks to engage demographics that previously showed reluctance in her support. This approach targets groups such as Black male voters and younger constituents, who have not been as supportive as they were for Biden. The effectiveness of this strategy remains uncertain, as it is unclear whether intensified media exposure can significantly sway undecided voters or ensure turnout among key demographics.
