U.S. Vice-President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz got an idea of just how hotly contested the Midwest will be when they overlapped on a Wisconsin tarmac with Republican vice-presidential nominee JD Vance.
U.S. Vice-President Kamala Harris declared herself and her new running mate, Minnesota Gov.

They got an unusual glimpse of how hotly contested the region will be when they overlapped on a Wisconsin tarmac with Republican vice-presidential nominee JD Vance.

The vice-president eventually climbed into her motorcade, and it pulled away before they could interact.

The momentum could be pivotal in Detroit, which is nearly 80 per cent Black, where leaders for months had warned administration officials that voter apathy could cost them in a city that's typically a stronghold for their party. Rev. Wendell Anthony, president of the NAACP Detroit branch, said the excitement in the city now is "mind-blowing.
