Final Push: Kamala Harris and Donald Trump Campaign in Pennsylvania Ahead of Election Day

Send Push

As the U.S. presidential election on Tuesday, rivals Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are launching their final campaign blitz on Monday, focusing on the crucial battleground of Pennsylvania. Both candidates see this state as vital for their chances of winning the election.

Republican Trump is optimistic, declaring he anticipates a "landslide" victory as he aims to reclaim the White House. Meanwhile, Democrat Harris believes she has the "momentum" needed to make history as the first woman president.

However, polls indicate a deadlock, with tight races in seven key swing states that will likely determine the outcome. The campaign has seen dramatic twists, including attempts on Trump's life and Harris's unexpected late entry into the race.

Harris will spend her day campaigning across Pennsylvania, culminating in a large rally in Philadelphia featuring Lady Gaga. Trump will also make stops in North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Michigan, highlighting the importance of Pennsylvania, the biggest swing state in the Electoral College system.

Both campaigns are buoyed by strong early voting numbers, with over 78 million ballots cast so far, approximately half of the total from the 2020 election. This close race underscores the deep divisions in the U.S., with two candidates presenting vastly different visions for the country.

Trump, seeking a second term, has intensified his controversial rhetoric, positioning himself as a fierce opponent of migrants and political rivals. At a rally in Georgia, he made provocative comments about journalists and reiterated unfounded claims of election fraud.

In contrast, Harris aims to appeal to women voters by highlighting abortion rights as a key issue. She also addressed the Arab-American community in Michigan, promising to work towards ending the conflict in Gaza, particularly in light of the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.

Both candidates are employing high-profile surrogates in their final push. Trump has garnered attention with a $1 million giveaway to registered voters by tech entrepreneur Elon Musk. On the other hand, Harris is supported by influential figures like former President Barack Obama, Michelle Obama, and singer Beyoncé.

As the campaign reaches its climax, President Biden has kept a low profile following a recent controversy involving comments about Trump’s supporters. He is expected to spend the final day of the campaign at the White House, while Harris will begin her day in Scranton, Pennsylvania.
