Former President Obama is gearing up to support Vice President Harris on the campaign trail, starting in key battleground states as the election approaches. Obama, who served two terms in office, will begin his efforts in Pennsylvania, a state that could be crucial in deciding the outcome of the election. Recent polls show Harris narrowly ahead of Trump among registered voters in Pennsylvania, making it a closely contested race. Obama’s Senior Advisor Eric Schultz expressed the former president’s determination to help elect Harris and other Democrats, emphasizing the importance of winning key races across the country.
President Obama officially endorsed Harris for president in July, following President Biden’s announcement that he would not seek re-election in 2024. Obama praised Harris as someone who has dedicated her life to fighting for those in need, emphasizing her strength and dedication. The two have a longstanding friendship, dating back to when they met on the campaign trail during Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign. Harris has been a supporter of Obama since their early days in politics, even going so far as to campaign for him in Iowa ahead of the caucus. Obama has been actively fundraising for Harris, with a recent fundraiser raising $4 million and an overall total of $76 million raised.
In addition to fundraising efforts, President Obama plans to ramp up support for Harris by signing fundraising emails, recording candidate-specific ads and robocalls, and traveling across the country to mobilize voters leading up to Election Day. Harris’ campaign team, led by Jen O’Malley Dillon Harris, includes veteran campaign staff from Obama’s previous campaigns, such as David Plouffe. Harris has been actively campaigning in battleground states, including Wisconsin, where she recently campaigned with former Republican Rep. Liz Cheney. Obama’s upcoming efforts will focus on increasing support for Harris and encouraging voter turnout in critical races.
As Obama gets ready to hit the campaign trail, Vice President Harris is also stepping up her efforts to secure votes in key states. Harris has been actively campaigning in battleground states like Wisconsin, where she recently appeared alongside former Republican Rep. Liz Cheney. Meanwhile, Trump is scheduled to return to Pennsylvania for a campaign event, marking his first visit to Butler since an attempted assassination in July. Trump has been rallying his supporters and emphasizing the importance of winning key swing states in the lead-up to the election. Both candidates are focused on mobilizing their base and appealing to undecided voters in key battlegrounds.
With the election fast approaching, both Obama and Harris are focused on winning key races across the country. Obama’s planned campaign efforts will focus on supporting Harris and other Democrats, with a goal of winning the White House, retaining control of the U.S. Senate, and taking back the House of Representatives. The upcoming election is seen as crucial by both Obama and Harris, and they are working tirelessly to reach voters and secure the support needed to win in key battleground states. Obama’s long history of support for Harris, dating back to their early days in politics, emphasizes the strong bond between the two and the shared commitment to fighting for a better future for all Americans.
