Harris, Trump campaigns ramp up: Where they’ll be on Monday
Vice President Harris’s and former President Trump’s campaigns are kicking off their second-to-last full week of the 2024 presidential campaign cycle in full gear, as the election remains a tossup between the two major candidates.
Harris is wasting no time on Monday, as she plans to make stops in three of the most important battleground states, alongside former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.).
The two of them will join moderated conversations on Monday in Chester County, Pa. in the early afternoon, in Waukesha County, Wis. in the mid-afternoon, and in Oakland County, Mich. in the evening.
Harris and Cheney “plan to warn about the risk of a second Trump term for America and lay out the Vice President’s agenda for a New Way Forward for the American people that focuses on their needs, not the division and chaos of Donald Trump,” according to a Harris campaign press release.
Trump will deliver remarks to the press at 12 p.m. EDT in Asheville, N.C., where he plans to see, first hand, the devastation from Hurricane Helene. He will hold a rally in Greenville, N.C. at 3 p.m. EDT.
Trump will also join an “11th hour faith leaders meeting” in Concord, N.C. at 6:30 p.m., with his son, Eric Trump and with his former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, Ben Carson.
Harris’s running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) will speak at a New York campaign reception on behalf of The Harris Victory Fund, but, first, he will stop off for an in-studio live appearance on ABC’s “The View” at 11 a.m. EDT.
Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff is slated to attend campaign events in Lackawanna County, Pa. and in Luzerne County, Pa., where he will deliver remarks. According to the campaign, Emhoff will “highlight the Vice President’s plans to strengthen the middle class, protect Pennsylvanians’ fundamental freedoms, and be a president for all Americans.”
Trump’s running mate, Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), has no public events scheduled.
The Trump campaign, however, is launching a Pennsylvania bus tour Monday and will host its first event in Sharon Hill, Pa. sat 10 a.m. EDT. The tour will end in Hershey, Pa. on Friday.
