Trump and Harris Campaign Trail: Final Day with Furious Events
Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are spending their final day on the campaign trail with a furious barrage of events, aiming to drum up excitement among supporters ahead of what’s on track to be one of the closest presidential elections in modern history. The Democratic nominee launches her day in Scranton, Pennsylvania, the hometown of President Joe Biden, whom she has replaced atop their party’s ticket just over three months ago – and will crisscross the pivotal battleground state throughout the day.
Aides have signaled that Harris will spend the time focusing on an affirmative case for her presidency rather than attacking Trump, a sign that Democrats may believe the vice president’s policy platform, particularly on the economy, is the most effective way to drive voters, many undecided. A spate of polls released Sunday showed that the economy remains the most important issue to voters, in a race deadlocked both nationally and across the swing states.
In the evening, Katy Perry will headline a rally with Harris in Pittsburgh before the vice president heads to Philadelphia for a final event that will include appearances from Lady Gaga, Oprah Winfrey, Ricky Martin, and The Roots. That rally will take place in front of the steps of the city’s art museum, made famous in the iconic Rocky training montage.
