Pennsylvania voters urge Harris to provide clear policy details during debate: "Stop just hyping us up"

At Tuesday's ABC News Presidential Debate, undecided voters in Pennsylvania expressed a desire to hear more specific policies from Vice President Kamala Harris and to understand how her views differed from President Biden's.

"Majesty Moreland, an undecided voter from the swing state, stated to NBC10 that she is specifically seeking a concrete plan from the candidate on how they will support the Black community, rather than just a general statement."

Moreland stated that there is a lot of excitement for Harris due to the widespread opposition to Donald Trump, but she wants to look beyond the "hype" to see what he truly stands for.

"Don't just promote the uniqueness of your actions, but actually provide your specific plans, or policies," she emphasized.

Harris was urged by Moreland to distinguish herself from her position in the Biden administration.

"What do you want to be?" she said. "The woman and the Black woman that we think you are."

She immediately said "No" when asked if voters understood Harris' policies.

The voter admitted that she was uncertain about showing up to vote in November because she was not convinced that Harris would truly benefit her community. Additionally, she expressed dissatisfaction with Harris' promise to assist the middle class.

""When I hear that, I tune away because I know in my community, the Black community, a lot of us are poor," Moreland said."

"I'm uncertain about the upcoming election," she admitted, expressing her doubts about the potential impact of any candidate on her community. "Even if there's someone better than Trump, will they truly bring about meaningful change in my daily life? I'm not sure. Right now, it feels like it's all just a performance."

If Harris performs poorly in the upcoming debate, Neil Stolar, a Pennsylvania voter who is leaning toward her, said he'd be disappointed but may still consider voting for her or a third-party candidate to prevent Trump from being re-elected.

He explained that it could be perceived as a vote against Trump rather than for Harris.

Irma Fralic, a former supporter of Nikki Haley in the Republican primary, stated that she was searching for each candidate to "explicitly state" their stance on foreign policy during the debate.

A Pennsylvania voter named Pam Barnes, who leans towards Trump, stated that she wants both candidates to concentrate on their policies and defend them.

"Barnes suggested that the issues in the debate should be made clear and respectful, so that some people can make a decision."

When asked about her political leanings, she stated that she was likely to vote Republican due to her concerns about federal overreach.

""I believe in a smaller government perspective, honestly," she stated."

One of the seven swing states that decided the 2020 election, Pennsylvania could determine the outcome of the 2022 election, according to political analysts.

According to a recent poll by NYT-Siena College, Trump has a 63.8% chance of winning the electoral college, with a 1-point lead over Harris.

Despite leading in several national and swing state polls, a recent NYT/Siena College poll shows that there has been a "shift in momentum" in the race, according to Silver.

A poll by the NYT/Siena College found that more voters believed Harris was "too liberal or progressive" on important policy matters than those who thought Trump was "too conservative."

On Monday, Harris introduced a policy page on her campaign website for the first time since being named the Democratic presidential nominee.
