Harris and Walz to take bus tour through Pennsylvania ahead of Democratic convention
CNN Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, will roll through Pennsylvania on a bus tour Sunday, dropping in on the crucial battleground state just days before the Democratic National Convention in Chicago. Its a move that underscores how aggressively the Harris-Walz ticket plans to compete for Pennsylvania and its 19 Electoral College votes.
Sundays tour, which is scheduled to begin in Pittsburgh, will mark the first time that Harris, Walz and their respective spouses second gentleman Doug Emhoff and Minnesota first lady Gwen Walz will appear on the campaign trail together since they shared the stage in Philadelphia last week. The goal, according to the campaign, is to have a cluster of intimate events with voters, ranging from canvass kick-offs to stops at local retail shops.
The campaign has 36 coordinated offices and 300 staffers in Pennsylvania, which Harris has already visited seven times this year. The campaign has touted a robust volunteer operation: Some 43,000 people have signed up to volunteer in the Keystone State since Harris announced her candidacy last month.
