Vice President Kamala Harris and her new running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, took their campaign to crucial Midwest swing states to sell voters on their economic message — an effort Donald Trump’s running mate, JD Vance, sought to undercut.
The Democratic ticket held rallies in Eau Claire, Wisconsin and Detroit, Michigan — part of a campaign swing covering key battleground states in a bid to seize on momentum for Harris and introduce Walz, her vice presidential pick, to voters. Highlighting the importance of those states, Trump’s campaign also deployed Vance in a bid to counterprogram their opponents.
