- Black voters' views of Trump, Harris: About 7 in 10 Black voters have a somewhat or very favorable view of Harris, with few differences between Black men and women voters on how they view the Democratic candidate, according to a recent poll from the AP-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.

Donald Trump holds rally on Long Island
Former President Donald Trump held a rally on Long Island Wednesday night. This was his first rally since a second apparent assassination attempt against him. FOX 5 NY's Morgan McKay has the details.
It will be Trump’s second rally in the city he grew up in following a stop in the South Bronx in May.
Trump has claimed he believes he can win New York, even though it is an overwhelmingly Democratic state and the city even more so. But such an event is likely to draw outsized media attention.
The former president is also campaigning this week in other Democratic states, including California and Colorado.
