Former President Barack Obama will begin campaigning in earnest for Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz starting next Thursday, October 10, and continuing through Election Day, according to a senior Harris campaign official.

Obama will kick off his campaign in the crucial state of Pennsylvania next Thursday. That will launch a series of events across key Rust Belt and Sun Belt battleground states, aimed at making an impact in a race that remains largely a dead heat, ABC News reported.
