Harris to tour battleground states after debating Trump
US Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz will tour several battleground states after her highly anticipated debate with Republican former President Donald Trump, her campaign says.
With less than 60 days until the November 5 presidential election, Vice President Harris will kick off the tour in North Carolina on Thursday and travel to Pennsylvania on Friday.
Walz will travel to Michigan and Wisconsin.

Polling averages show a tight race in the handful of states that could swing to Republicans or Democrats and will likely determine the election.
The battleground states also include Georgia, Wisconsin and Arizona.
A key test for Harris and Trump will come at their televised debate, the first since President Joe Biden dropped out of the race and endorsed Harris as his successor on July 21.
Harris' candidacy has re-energised Democrats and donors, and she has had a surge in opinion polls.
Her campaign raised $US361 million ($A541 million) in August, leaving her with a clear cash advantage over Trump.
