Harris teams up with Obamas for key campaign events

VP Kamala Harris is set to join forces with Barack and Michelle Obama for campaign events in Georgia and Michigan. These gatherings mark the first time Harris will share the stage with both Obamas during this election cycle

Harris plans to meet Barack Obama in Georgia on 10/24/24 and Michelle Obama in Michigan on 10/26/24. The exact cities for these events havent been disclosed yet. These appearances come at a critical time‚ as early voting kicked off in Georgia about three days ago‚ with over 310000 voters casting their ballots on the first day — a new record. In Michigan early voting is scheduled to start on the same day as Harris and Michelle Obamas event

The Obamas who endorsed Harris roughly three months ago‚ remain popular figures within the Democratic Party. They continue to be effective fundraisers and draw large crowds at campaign events. Barack Obama has been actively campaigning for Harris: he recently visited Pittsburgh and has upcoming stops in Arizona Nevada Wisconsin and Michigan

Michelle Obama is also stepping up her involvement. Sheʼs set to headline a rally in Atlanta on 10/29/24‚ organized by When We All Vote — a non-partisan group she founded in 2018. This organization aims to engage people who are typically less involved in politics and elections. It boasts an impressive list of celebrity co-chairs including:

• NBA players Stephen Curry and Chris Paul
• Musicians Jennifer Lopez and Janelle Monáe
• Actors Tom Hanks‚ Selena Gomez‚ Lin-Manuel Miranda and Kerry Washington
• Beauty influencer Bretman Rock

The relationship between Harris and the Obamas spans two decades — they first crossed paths during Barack Obamas Senate campaign. Harris was an early supporter of his 2008 presidential bid even going door-to-door for him in Iowa before the caucuses

This collaboration between Harris and the Obamas underscores the Democratic Partys efforts to mobilize voters in key states as the election draws near
