Harris in 'more competitive crouch' in Georgia as election nears

But now, three days before Election Day, even some Republicans acknowledge the vice president’s additional paths to victory.

Harris has spent two full days this week amping up supporters across the Sun Belt, including here at the Atlanta Civic Center in downtown Atlanta on Saturday afternoon. She heads next to North Carolina, where she will speak to supporters in Charlotte on Saturday night; and she spent all day Thursday in the West, with rallies in Phoenix, Reno and Las Vegas.

“She definitely is in a more competitive crouch than Biden was,” said Brian Robinson, a GOP strategist in Georgia. “The numbers for Biden in Georgia were atrocious. I mean, there were some, like the New York Times polling back in the summer or spring, it had Trump up more than 10 points — you never see that in Georgia.”

The scene in downtown Georgia Saturday afternoon — Harris, rallying thousands of supporters against the backdrop of the city’s skyline, flanked by signs that said “freedom” — showed just how far Democrats have come in the state.
