Polls released in the US overnight show the presidential election campaign is neck and neck. Kamala Harris, who has all but secured the Democratic nomination after Joe Biden dropped out of the race, is surging in the polls. 

Donald Trump and his VP pick, JD Vance, know they have a fight on their hands - and it doesn’t help that in 2021 Vance said of VP Harris that ‘the nation is being run by childless cat ladies’. The comments have angered Democrat supporters, including Friends star Jennifer Aniston, have come out in support of Harris saying a woman’s choice to have or not have children is no one else’s business, alongside family support groups quick to point out that Harris has two stepchildren.

In this episode of The Briefing, Sacha Barbour Gatt is joined by Emma Shortis from The Australia Institute to discuss the fallout from Vance’s comments, and what the latest polls mean for November’s race for the White House.
