Editorial: The New York Times

• Kamala Harris, the likely Democratic nominee, has the chance to encourage public scrutiny during the 2024 race.
• All candidates need to start taking questions from reporters.
• Harris needs to challenge Trump to a series of debates or town halls on topics of national importance.
• Harris would be the first major party presidential candidate to not pass through the state primary process.
• Voters deserve the opportunity to ask questions of those seeking to lead their government.
• With debates and town halls, Harris would have an opportunity to draw an even sharper contrast with Trump.

Conclusion: Harris now has a chance to demonstrate that she will be the leader who deserves the nation's support.
