Former President of the United States, Donald Trump, and Vice President Kamala Harris travel to swing states this Saturday (5).
Trump will be back in Butler, Pennsylvania, to hold a rally for the first time since the assassination attempt on him in the city. GOP vice presidential candidate JD Vance, Tesla CEO Elon Musk and the family of the man who was killed in the bombing are expected to attend.
Kamala will travel to North Carolina to assess the damage caused by Hurricane Helene before holding a rally in Nevada on Sunday (6).
Presidential candidates intensify their respective campaigns in swing states with less than 1 month until Election Day.
Here’s a recap of what happened in the US election campaign over the past few days:
Republican Chapa
- Trump was in Evans, Georgia, on Friday, where he received a briefing on damage from Hurricane Helene and delivered remarks with Georgia’s Republican governor, Brian Kemp. It was the first in-person meeting since the relationship between the Republicans frayed around the 2020 presidential election.
- Republican vice presidential nominee J.D. Vance said he respects former first lady Melania Trump expressing her support for abortion rights, but it won’t affect how he or the Trump campaign talks about the issue.
- At an event with Vance, Georgia Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene urged Georgians to resist the urge to ignore politics and said that if they didn’t vote, they would be part of the problem.
Democratic Party
- Kamala campaigned in Michigan on Friday (5). She highlighted her record on labor issues by visiting a fire department near Detroit shortly after a major firefighters union refused to endorse any of the candidates. Kamala also met with a group of Arab-American and Muslim-American leaders in Flint, Michigan.
- Next week, former President Barack Obama will begin a 27-day campaign run for Kamala in Pennsylvania, an aide to the Democratic presidential candidate’s campaign said.
- Kamala’s campaign released a new ad as part of its aggressive approach to reaching Latino voters in swing states, highlighting her record of working for middle-class families.
Election security
- The onslaught of foreign election interference “is more aggressive than ever this election cycle” and represents a “clear and present danger,” according to Matthew Olsen, head of the Justice Department’s National Security Division, including from Russia, Iran and China.
- President Joe Biden said he is confident the election will be “free and fair; I don’t know if it will be peaceful”, and added that “the things Trump said last time, when he didn’t like the result of the election, were very dangerous”.
