US ELECTION 2024
Where will Kamala Harris spend the last day of the 2024 campaign? Schedule, rallies and events
Winning Pennsylvania makes Kamala Harris’ march to 270 much easier. How her campaign schedule reflects that reality.
The campaigns have three days to make their final cases to the voters, and the candidates are sticking to the swing states. Kamala Harris and Tim Walz will be dividing up the states, rather than campaigning together, to give a wider reach and interact with a greater number of voters.

The importance of Pennsylvania for the Kamala Harris campaign
Election experts, including Dr. David A. Schultz, whose research focuses on US elections and the electoral college, told us that if Harris can win in Pennsylvania, her path to 270 becomes much easier.
Though the seven swing states that the campaigns are focusing on are Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, Dr. Schultz explained that “if [Harris] can’t win Pennsylvania, her math gets much more complicated.” Trump, on the other hand, “can potentially lose Pennsylvania [...], but if he sweeps North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, possibly, you know, can squeak through anyhow.”
That does not mean the Trump campaign is not putting effort into winning Pennsylvania; quite the opposite case is true. The former president will be heading to the state on Sunday and Monday, making three stops in total.
