A roaring crowd of battleground state voters greeted U.S. Vice-President Kamala Harris Tuesday as she opened her Democratic political case against Republican former President Donald Trump.
U.S. Vice-President Kamala Harris speaks at her campaign headquarters in Wilmington, Del., Monday, July 22, 2024. “In this campaign, I promise you, I will proudly put my record against his any day of the week,” Harris said. “We believe in a future where every person has the opportunity not just to get by, but to get ahead.”Harris arrived in the Milwaukee area having locked up nomination support from Democratic delegates after President Joe Biden dropped his reelection bid on Sunday.
Harris' trip to the state was a sharp contrast with Biden's July 6 trip when he was trying to reassure Democrats who were wary of his continued candidacy after his troubling performance in the June 27 debate against Donald Trump. Sen. Tammy Baldwin, D-Wis., is up for reelection this year. She skipped the Biden event, but she spoke before Harris on Tuesday.
Harris' swift ascent over the past few days has required her to vet possible running mates, a process being led by Eric Holder, who was attorney general during Barack Obama's presidency. But her key impact so far has been galvanizing Democrats. Trump and his campaign have quickly turned most of their focus on Harris and have asserted that they were prepared for the change and it did not alter their plans.
Meanwhile, Wisconsin Republican leaders are branding Harris as an “extreme liberal” who is out of step with most voters in the swing state.
