Vice President Kamala Harris and Her Running Mate Make Campaign Stops in Arizona and Montana
Vice President Kamala Harris and her new running mate will hold a rally in Arizona as part of their tour of electoral battlegrounds. They will be visiting a state where Harris passed over a prominent Democrat in favor of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz. Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly, a former astronaut and gun control advocate, had been a top contender for running mate.
On the other side, former President Donald Trump is heading to Montana for a rally in support of Republican Senate candidate Tim Sheehy. Trump is looking to settle some unfinished business from a previous campaign in 2018 when he failed to oust incumbent Democratic Sen. Jon Tester.

Exciting Developments in the 2024 Election Scene
Both Democrats and Republicans are intensifying their efforts in western Wisconsin, a crucial battleground area with significant implications for the entire election cycle.
The competition for swing voters in Wisconsin came to a head this week as Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz made their campaign stop. Their presence coincided with that of Republican VP nominee JD Vance, highlighting the state’s critical role in the election process.
The Race in Arizona and Montana Heats Up
Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate are set to visit Arizona for a campaign rally, a state where potential VP nominee Mark Kelly could have made a difference. Kelly, a prominent figure in Arizona politics, was overlooked in favor of Gov. Tim Walz.
Former President Donald Trump’s campaign in Montana is geared towards toppling Sen. Jon Tester, following a failed attempt in 2018. The high-stakes battle for Senate control makes this a crucial event for both parties.
Exciting Prospects for Native American Representation
If Kamala Harris and Tim Walz emerge victorious in the election, the U.S. would not only have a woman of color as Vice President but also the first Native American female governor if Lieutenant Gov. Peggy Flanagan assumes the role in Minnesota.
