Harris campaign says Florida a "critical state," still an uphill battle
The late Tim Russert famously said, "Florida, Florida, Florida," when it came to deciding the presidential race in 2000.

When Vice President Kamala Harris' team laid out its strategy for getting to 270 Electoral College votes on Wednesday, seven states were highlighted as focus areas until Election Day: Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, and Nevada.
