Vice President Kamala Harris is scheduled to deliver a speech in Georgia on Friday, focusing specifically on abortion rights. This comes in the wake of reports highlighting women’s deaths due to the state’s restrictive six-week abortion ban.

Meanwhile, efforts are underway to ensure that the U.S. Secret Service is well-equipped to protect presidential candidates from repeated threats of violence. This follows recent incidents such as an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump at a rally in Pennsylvania and another apparent attempt at his golf club in Florida.

A new AP-NORC poll reveals that voters are divided on whether Harris or Trump would be better suited to handle the economy. To stay updated on AP’s coverage of Election 2024, visit: https://apnews.com/hub/election-2024.
