Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, are set to kick off a bus tour through central Pennsylvania following the Vice Presidential debate between Walz and Republican candidate JD Vance. The campaign announced on Friday that the duo will make multiple stops during the tour, marking the first time the Democratic ticket has campaigned together in Central Pennsylvania.
This upcoming tour will serve as the first joint public appearance for Harris and Walz since their previous rally and joint interview last month. The campaign aims to highlight their unity and dedication to rallying voters behind their vision for a new way forward for America, with a particular focus on Vice President Harris' economic plan that emphasizes investing in manufacturing in Pennsylvania.
Earlier reports indicated that Governor Walz will be preparing for the debate at a 'debate camp' in Harbor Springs, Michigan, ahead of the Tuesday-night face-off with Vance. Additionally, he is scheduled to attend the University of Michigan Wolverines football game in Ann Arbor on Saturday.
The Wednesday bus tour is expected to draw attention to the Democratic ticket's platform and engage with voters in central Pennsylvania. This strategic move underscores the campaign's efforts to connect with key swing states and solidify support for their policies and initiatives.
