Harris campaign to target swing state Georgia with advertising blitz

CHICAGO — David Plouffe, a top adviser to Vice President Kamala Harris in her bid for the presidency, told Georgia delegates to the Democratic National Convention Wednesday that an advertising offensive will soon kick off in their home state.

“We do have, as you know, if you turn on your TV or you open up your phone in Georgia, you’re seeing a lot of attack ads on our candidate,” he said. “We’re trying to respond the best we can, but we’re also very soon going to move to offense, a lot more offense about what she’s going to do, about what (former President Donald) Trump will do.”

The Democrats’ messaging will focus on two areas, the first of which is abortion access. Plouffe said.

“(Trump) said in his campaign that Roe would be on the ballot,” Plouffe said. “It was. He said it’s the thing he’s most proud of. A third of the country now lives under abortion bans. If he wins the presidency, the Republicans win the House and Senate. They will pass a national abortion ban, and whatever that liar says, he’ll sign it.”
