As the 2024 presidential campaign enters its final months, both former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are expected to pick up the tempo of their national campaigns after Labor Day. These two presidential contenders worked with extreme schedules on September 4 in an effort to channel the energy and anxieties of their support bases.
Kamala Harris’ schedule
Labor Day found Vice-President Kamala Harris out on the campaign trail with aggressive vigor. Harris, having had nothing on her schedule Saturday and Sunday, was rallying in Pittsburgh on Monday with President Joe Biden after a solo stop in Detroit.
Vice President Kamala Harris has less than a week to go before she meets her Republican opponent Donald Trump in a debate scheduled to be held in Philadelphia. She has mixed hours of grueling preparation with casual one-on-one meetings with voters in battleground Pennsylvania, a key swing state.
Donald Trump’s schedule
Ex-President Donald Trump’s campaign had a tight holiday weekend and so not much is scheduled to appear on the calendar dated for September 4. Trump has been scheduled to speak at an interview in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, with Sean Hannity this Wednesday, September 4, at around 5:30 p.m. at the Harrisburg Town Hall.
Upcoming interviews and rallies
Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, started the week with a bus tour and closed it with a Thursday-night rally in Savannah last week. The ticket has no interviews or rallies scheduled for the rest of this week
Trump and his running mate, JD Vance, are scheduled to rally in Mosinee, Wisconsin on September 7, 2024 while JD Vance will deliver remarks in Phoenix, Arizona.
Upcoming debate
Both candidates on September 10 have the ABC presidential debate which is to be held at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia.
As the campaign season heats up, both candidates will have to continue to keep the dialogue as peaceful and respectful as possible as each tries to assuage the concerns of their supporters and the nation in general. The Harris and Trump Labor Day events signal the homestretch toward Election Day for both of them as each candidate zeroes in on key swing states.
The Democratic vice president and the Republican former president will devote almost all of their remaining time and resources this year to a small collection of undecided voters in just seven states, flooding hundreds of millions of dollars into ads targeting voters who in many cases are only now starting to pay attention to the election.
In one week, the candidates will debate each other for the first time. And one week after that, Pennsylvania, America’s premier swing state, begins in-person absentee voting. At least four states will be early voting by month’s end, a dozen more joining them by mid-October. In 63 days, the final votes will be cast to determine which of them will lead the world’s most powerful nation.
