In the final days leading up to the November 5 election, both Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump are making critical campaign stops in battleground states, fighting for every last undecided voter.
There is a broad feeling of uncertainty hanging over the presidential contest during the last week of the campaign. The race is competitive nationally and expected to be tight, according to recent polls, with neither Harris nor Trump showing a measurable advantage.
At the same time, the candidates have offered closing arguments that are in stark contrast with each other, with Harris arguing that Trump is obsessed with revenge and his own personal needs, and Trump referring to Harris as “a trainwreck who has destroyed everything in her path.”
Harris is concentrating on pivotal swing states in the campaign’s final days, focusing on the regions Democrats see as critical to securing victory.
On Friday, Harris will campaign in Wisconsin, with stops in Appleton and Milwaukee. The Milwaukee event will feature performances by rappers Cardi B, GloRilla, Flo Milli and MC Lyte, the R&B group The Isley Brothers and DJ Gemini Gilly.
Harris is scheduled to visit Atlanta, Georgia, and Charlotte, North Carolina, on Saturday, followed by stops in Detroit, Michigan and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in the final two days before Election Day.
The campaign is banking on Harris’ messages about reproductive rights, healthcare and economic policy to resonate in these competitive states, where polls show a tight race.
Trump is traveling to New Mexico and Virginia in the campaign’s final days—choosing to stump for votes in states the Republican Party hasn’t won in decades.
The former president will campaign in Albuquerque, New Mexico, on Thursday during a swing that will also take him to the battleground states of Arizona and Nevada.
He will then be in Salem, Virginia, on Saturday. The Trump team is projecting optimism and thinks he can be competitive against Harris in New Mexico and Virginia.
In national polling averages, Kamala Harris leads by 1.2 percent according to The New York Times, 1.5 percent on FiveThirtyEight, and 2 percent in Nate Silver’s analysis (with rounding applied).
The Washington Post rounds Harris’ lead to 1 percent. RealClearPolitics, which does not adjust polls for accuracy or partisan bias, shows Trump with a slight 0.1 percent lead.
