Closing summary
Thanks for joining us today. This blog is closing soon. Here’s where things stand:
Kamala Harris campaigned “neighborhood-to-neighborhood” in Philadelphia and stopped at a Puerto Rican restaurant before delivering her remarks in the battleground state of Pennsylvania.
Donald Trump delivered a speech in front of thousands of people who traveled to Madison Square Garden in New York City at a campaign rally. He mostly repeated some of the issues he aims to tackle if he were to be elected, including immigration, the war between Israel and Hamas, and crime.
Kamala Harris addressed a boisterous crowd in North Philadelphia, promising supporters that she would win a seemingly deadlocked presidential race with just nine days left before election day.
Donald Trump’s warm-up speakers at the Madison Square Garden rally were crude and xenophobic at times, seemingly in an attempt to double down on Trump’s rhetoric and to play to the hardcore fans here.
Kamala Harris shared her plan to create a task force in Puerto Rico geared toward improving the economy in the cash-strapped island. The message came in tandem with offensive remarks by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, who called Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage” during Donald Trump’s rally.
In an interview on CNN’s State of the Union this morning, JD Vance and host Jake Tapper had a heated exchange over statements former Trump administration officials have made calling the ex-president a fascist.
Donald Trump will also be visiting several battleground states ahead of Election Day.
His schedule includes a visit to Atlanta, Georgia, on Monday and a rally in Allentown, Pennsylvania, on Tuesday.
Trump is also slated to travel to Wisconsin and Nevada this week.
