They could have been legal residents for one hour.
There is no time requirement. Kamala was born in the USA and that's the only requirement.

They could have been tourists, and if their baby was born in the US that would make the child an American citizen. Cf the reported birth tourism business carried on at some Trump resorts in Florida.

in the Bay Area - with a tilde over the n. BTW, I-5 does run all the way up to the Canadian border, so there actually is an LA-Canada freeway: it just takes a while to get there.

They're not candidates. Harris only needs to be a natural born citizen, which has been interpreted as anyone born here. Don't know what I'm missing here.
