With only 12 days left until Election Day and over 28 million ballots already cast, the candidates are intensifying their efforts to sway undecided voters. Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump are focusing on Sun Belt battlegrounds where the race remains tight.
Today, Vice President Harris is joining forces with former President Barack Obama and rock legend Bruce Springsteen for a rally in Georgia, aiming to secure a repeat victory for the Democrats in the state. Meanwhile, former President Trump is holding events in Arizona and Nevada.
Recent polls from Marist College show close races in Georgia, Arizona, and North Carolina, with no clear leader in Pennsylvania according to Franklin and Marshall College. Harris is emphasizing the dangers she believes Trump poses if re-elected, labeling him as a fascist and criticizing his policies on taxes, immigration, and national security.
Harris is expected to continue her attacks on Trump in the final days of the campaign, culminating in a closing argument address at the Ellipse in Washington next Tuesday. This location holds significance as the site of Trump's speech before the Capitol attack on January 6, 2021.
Throughout the campaign, Harris has strategically used symbolic backdrops to reinforce her message against her Republican opponent, from Ripon, Wisconsin to Washington Crossing, Pennsylvania. As the candidates make their final pitches to voters, the race for the White House remains highly competitive, with both campaigns vying for the 270 electoral votes needed for victory.
