Kamala Harris turns to Democratic stars to make closing argument to voters

After having spent the last month trying to persuade undecided voters to support her, Kamala Harris will now pivot to the closing argument phase of her campaign.

WASHINGTON — After having spent the last month trying to persuade undecided voters to support her, Vice President Kamala Harris will now pivot to the closing argument phase of her campaign and enlist the party’s biggest stars to help make her final pitch, according to three people familiar with the strategy.

Harris is set to appear with former President Barack Obama in Georgia on Thursday and with former first lady Michelle Obama in Michigan on Saturday, the first time the Democratic presidential nominee will campaign with the Obamas this cycle. 

With just 12 days to go, the events are meant to be massive “get out the vote” rallies, where the focus will be to encourage Americans to make plans to vote and vote early, if possible, they said. 

A significant part of Harris’ last push will be a major speech Tuesday. She will deliver it at the Ellipse outside the White House — a notable location because it’s where former President Donald Trump spoke shortly before the Jan. 6, 2021, riot on the Capitol.  

In the final days of the race, Harris is expected to stress that she still believes she and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, are the “underdogs” in the race and that “nothing can be left on the field,” a Harris aide said.
