The vice president has raised Democrats’ hopes of winning the Tar Heel State, a populous battleground that has been just beyond their grasp ever since Barack Obama briefly turned it blue in 2008.

Donald Trump and Kamala Harris again took their presidential campaigns to battleground states Friday, as a racially charged row over Haitian immigrants intensified with the Republican leader promising "large deportations.

Vice President Harris chose battleground North Carolina as her first campaign stop post-debate. Former communications director for the Republican National Committee Doug Heye and North Carolina State Democratic Party chair Anderson Clayton join Chris Jansing to discuss the significance of the swing state and what’s important to voters there.
