Can Harris Flip North Carolina Blue?

We're officially fewer than 50 days out from Election Day. While most of the attention has been on the five states that decided the 2020 race for President Joe Biden – Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, Georgia, and Arizona — there's another state that went for former President Donald Trump that Democrats are putting back in play this year: North Carolina. Trump won the state by a little more than a point four years ago, but polls now show Harris has a chance of becoming the first Democrat since Barack Obama in 2008 to turn the state blue. Anderson Clayton, chair of the state Democratic Party, joins us to talk about what Harris needs to do to win North Carolina in November.

And in headlines: The FBI is investigating another apparent assassination attempt targeting former President Trump, Republican Vice Presidential Nominee J.D. Vance seemed to admit to making up racist stories about Haitian immigrants eating dogs and cats in Ohio, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says Israel will retaliate against the Yemen-based Houthi militia after the group claimed responsibility for launching a missile into the country.
