Presidential candidates focus on swing states with three months to Election Day

The Democratic and Republican presidential candidates are intensifying their campaigns in key swing states with just three months to go before Election Day.Presidential nominee Kamala Harris and her new vice-presidential pick Tim Walz took their message on the road, debuting at a rally in Pennsylvania Tuesday. They traveled to Wisconsin and Michigan Wednesday following their debut, touting their agenda and attacking their opponents. “We will continue to fight for affordable housing, for affordable health care, for affordable child care and paid leave,” said Harris.”This guy weakens our country to strengthen his own hands. He mocks our laws. He sows chaos and division amongst the people,” added Walz.Meanwhile, the Trump-Vance ticket was sharpening its attack in the same states.”We think it’s important to have a counternarrative here and importantly to drive home this point that she has been a dangerous radical. She has pursued very far-left policies,” said Sen. JD Vance, the Republican vice-presidential nominee.Doubling down on immigration, Vance added, “When President (Donald) Trump was in office, we deported illegal aliens. When President Trump was in office, we were building the border wall, which made it harder for illegal aliens to come here in the first place.”The focus on these battlegrounds by the Trump and Harris campaigns is not without reason. Recent polling averages from The New York Times show the two are tied at 49% in both Wisconsin and Michigan.”Given how close this election is going to be, that state or two could be the difference in being sworn in as president or not,” said Casey Burgat from George Washington University.Wisconsin is seen as one of the most competitive states. In 2020, President Joe Biden won by fewer than 21,000 votes.
