US Election 2024: Trump, Harris campaign in battleground Wisconsin

Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, the Democratic and Republican contenders for the November 5 US presidential election are undertaking a tour of swing states in the final week of campaigning. Trump and Harris held rallies on Friday in Wisconsin’s largest city Milwaukee. The former Republican president will return to the Fiserv Forum, where he was crowned his party’s presidential nominee. Harris is expected to rely on the star power of rapper Cardi B to attract voters.

Wisconsin is one among the seven battleground states, whose 10 electoral college votes can swing the final results in favour of either Democrats or Republicans. The results here were decided by less than one percentage point in 2016 and 2020.

On Friday, Harris alleged that Trump is becoming “increasingly unstable, obsessed with revenge, consumed with grievance, and he is out for unchecked power,”. Harris sought to differentiate herself from her contender by claiming that she would give even her enemies “a seat at the table”.
