One week after giving her nomination acceptance speech on the closing day of the 2024 Democratic National Convention, Vice President Kamala Harris will be joined by Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz on Aug. 29 for their first joint interview as candidates.

The CNN interview will be conducted by Dana Bash, the network’s chief political correspondent and anchor, at 9 p.m. ET on Thursday. Harris and Walz are hitting the campaign trail this week on a bus tour that will take them through Georgia, a key battleground state in the fight for the Electoral College.
