Wisconsin leaders extended a warm welcome to Vice President Kamala Harris as she kicked off her first campaign event in the state following President Joe Biden's endorsement of her as the Democratic party's presidential nominee. The event, held in Milwaukee, was attended by Democratic Sen. Tammy Baldwin, who emphasized the significance of Wisconsin as a battleground state that could play a crucial role in determining the outcome of the presidential election and control of the Senate.
Senator Baldwin praised President Biden's decision not to seek reelection as an 'incredible act of patriotism' and highlighted Vice President Harris' qualifications as a career prosecutor and her experience serving as Biden's vice president. Both Baldwin and Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers expressed confidence in Harris' ability to lead and emphasized the urgency of the upcoming election.
