It’s crunch time for the 2024 presidential election, and it’s no surprise that both campaigns are focused on swing states. The two candidates spent time near Philly this week - Vice President Kamala Harris trying to sway Republican voters, and former President Donald Trump…dancing? We’ll hear about both of their rallies. Plus, we take a deep look at the state of the country’s infrastructure, and hear how Grammy winner Jill Scott’s legacy is being honored at her alma mater, Girls High. Get caught up on all that and more of the latest news in the Philadelphia region with Matt Leon and KYW Newsradio’s team of reporters.
