Harris putting “finishing touches” on her speech, aide says

Top Harris campaign aide Quentin Fulks told CBS News chief White House correspondent Nancy Cordes Harris is still putting the “finishing touches” on her speech. 

But she still knows “exactly” what she wants to say, Fulks said. 

Fulks said Harris isn’t completely revamping her speech, in the way former President Bill Clinton did earlier this week, when he rewrote his address after seeing the enthusiasm of the convention crowd.
