Noon Edition

Both Vice President Kamala Harris and J.D. Vance visit Indiana

This week, both Vice President Kamala Harris and Donald Trump’s running mate J.D. Vance visited Indiana. 

Harris’ visit was planned before President Joe Biden’s announcement Sunday that he would be dropping from the presidential race and endorsing Harris as the democratic party nominee. 

Harris spoke to a crowd of thousands of Black women at the Zeta Phi Beta Sorority’s Grand Boulé Wednesday. 

She touched on accomplishments of the Biden administration, including a cap on insulin prices, school debt forgiveness and Medicaid expansion. 

J.D. Vance also visited Indiana on Wednesday for a fundraising in Fort Wayne. The event organizer told local media the event raised nearly $1 million toward his campaign. 

The Trump campaign filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission, that said Harris’ campaign was improperly taking over President Biden’s campaign funds. 

This week on Noon Edition, we’ll talk with political experts about expectations leading up to November and developments on both party’s tickets.
