Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, will appear on CNN on Thursday in their first joint televised interview since accepting the Democratic nomination last week.

When is the interview?
The interview will air on Thursday at 9. p.m. ET/PT and be recorded during the team's two-day bus tour through Georgia.
How can I watch it?
The exclusive interview will air on various CNN platforms, including cable and CNN Max, for paid subscribers.
Who is conducting the interview?
CNN anchor and chief political correspondent Dana Bash will conduct the interview in Georgia, a key battleground state.
Bash moderated the June debate between former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden, which led to calls for the Democratic leader to drop off the 2024 ticket.
