(NewsNation) — Vice President Kamala Harris is holding a rally in Atlanta to garner support from Black suburban voters as NewsNation Decision Desk HQ expects Georgia and Nevada to be key battleground states in the 2024 election.

Voters began lining up outside the rally venue hours before the event was slated to begin. Many attendees told NewsNation their top priorities in this election are social issues, reproductive health and the economy.

The latest numbers show Harris is neck and neck with former President Donald Trump in Georgia, polling at 46% and 48%, respectively.

Harris is now attempting to fight her likeability issue, as only 47% of voters view her as favorable, and 51% view her as unfavorable. However, Trump also faces a similar issue, with 50% of voters viewing him as unfavorable.

In 2020, 30% of Georgia voters were Black, 88% of whom voted for Biden. Swing states like Georgia, which Democrats barely won in a hard-fought battle in 2020, are fiercely contested because they can lean either to Republicans or Democrats and play a decisive role in presidential elections.

President Joe Biden ended his reelection bid on July 22 and endorsed Harris for the Nov. 5 vote against Trump. Since then, Harris’ campaign has raised $200 million and signed up 170,000 new volunteers, and she has significantly outperformed Biden in recent polling among young people, Black voters and Hispanic voters.

A New York Times/Siena College national poll published Thursday found Harris has narrowed a sizable Trump lead. Trump had a two-point lead in a Wall Street Journal poll published Friday. A Reuters/Ipsos poll published July 23 showed a two-point lead for Harris.
