Kamala Harris’ revelation at the most recent presidential debate that she is a gun owner caught some viewers by surprise – the vice president has said relatively little over the years about her personal experience of owning a firearm.

The vice president made a remark about the gun in her home that reflects changing patterns of ownership even as it offered a misunderstanding of the risks.

Polling shows that Harris impressed people with her debate performance — but the improvement was largely on non-policy perceptions.

LIKE BIRD-WATCHERS with binoculars, observers of America’s presidential race have had their eyes trained on the opinion polls to see whether they can spot a post-debate bounce for either candidate. Now they can.

U.S. Democratic candidate Kamala Harris is trying to get a second opportunity to debate her Republican challenger Donald Trump in this year's presidential race, Harris said on Friday.
