Washington: The presidential election in America is becoming interesting. Kamala Harris, the Democratic Party’s candidate for the US Vice President and Presidential election, has gained a lead in popularity in several key electoral provinces. Indian American Harris (59) is continuing her campaign to collect funds for the election campaign. Record crowds are being seen in her rallies. Harris said at a fundraising event in San Francisco, “We will win this election.” She raised US $ 12 million in donations in this program, in which about 700 donors, including many Indian Americans, participated.
What do the surveys say
In less than a month of becoming the Democratic Party’s candidate for the presidency after outgoing US President Joe Biden’s decision to drop out of the election race, Harris has almost ended her rival Donald Trump’s lead in popularity at the national level. According to Real Clear Politics, a media company that monitors all major national and state surveys, Harris is now 0.5 percentage points ahead of Trump in popularity ratings in the average of all national surveys. According to this, Harris has also taken the lead in important states like Wisconsin and Michigan in terms of popularity where Biden was earlier behind. The latest survey of the New York Times said that Harris is ahead by four percentage points in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan.
Harris made a big promise
Let us tell you that recently Kamala Harris promised the public in Las Vegas that she would work towards eliminating taxes on tips given to restaurant workers and other service employees.
Harris said, “My promise to everyone is that when I become president, we will continue our fight for the working families of America. This includes increasing the minimum wage and eliminating taxes on tips given to service and hospitality workers. ”
Know the interesting thing
The interesting thing is also that both the presidential candidates are saying almost the same thing in their election campaign. The economy of Las Vegas is largely dependent on the hotel, restaurant and entertainment industries. Trump also said more or less the same thing in a rally in June, but the reality is that neither Trump nor Harris can take this step without the support of Congress (Parliament).
