With 12 days to go until the 2024 Presidential election, Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are taking their closing messages to battleground states.
Here’s what we’re following today:
- Trump heads to the southwest: The former president will be holding rallies in Tempe, Arizona, and Las Vegas on Thursday.
- Harris calls on big names: The vice president plans to hold a rally Thursday night in the Atlanta suburbs with former President Barack Obama and musician Bruce Springsteen. Beyoncé, whose song ‘Freedom’ is a Harris campaign anthem, is expected to be at Harris’ Houston rally Friday, according to AP sources.
- What the polls show: Trump and Harris are competitive on economic issues, according to the latest Associated Press-NORC survey. But policy doesn’t always outshine personality, partisan loyalty or even demographic factors that shape voters’ identities.
