Harris Urges Atlanta Radio Listeners to “Get It Done”

Vice President Kamala Harris speaks during a campaign rally in Philadelphia on Monday.

Vice President Kamala Harris called into Atlanta radio station V-103’s The Big Tigger Morning Show to remind Georgia voters to get out and vote on Election Day, telling listeners we’ve got to get it done. Today is voting day and people need to get out and be active.

Harris said her focus for the day is making sure everybody knows the power of their voice through their vote. She continued to avoid referring to former President Donald Trump by name, instead referring to him as my opponent during the interview.

Michelle Shen, Randi Kaye, Anne Clifford, Isabel Rosales and Denise Royal In the battleground state of Wisconsin, a mother-daughter pair went to a polling station together and cast their ballots, an experience the mother described as deeply emotional. It’s the first time in the history of our country that she’s been able to vote for a woman, and not just a woman, but one that looks like her. And I think that’s an incredibly emotional thing, but I think the reality of it didn’t settle in until this morning when I was getting we were getting ready to walk out the door. And it’s phenomenal, because it’s historic moment,” the mother told CNN.

The daughter mentioned that women’s rights was particularly important to her, especially as a biracial entrepreneur.

Women’s rights, specifically reproductive rights, were also top of mind as Georgia voter Elizabeth Gonzales headed to the ballot box. Two hours before polls opened Gonzales, an educator, was first in line to vote shortly after 5 a.m. ET at one of Fulton County’s 177 polling sites.

In Florida, first-time voter Davianna Porter, 20, told CNN that she would like Donald Trump to win because she likes what he stands for more. She said she is Puerto Rican and while she is not OK with the offensive comments about Puerto Rico made by a comedian at Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally, she said, Everyone has opinions. If they don’t like Puerto Ricans, it hurts of course, but at the end of the day, I’m OK with who I am.
