Georgia….you can do this!
“The vice president is energizing and mobilizing our base,” Harris campaign battleground states director Dan Kanninen said. “Having a candidate who can mobilize our key Biden-Harris coalition, talking about the issues that resonate with Georgians … make that state in play.”
This will be the Vice President’s 15th trip to the Peachtree state since taking office. The rally, held in Atlanta, is expected to have some heavy hitters making appearances, including Democratic state Sens. Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock and former gubernatorial candidate Stacy Abrams. Grammy Award-winner rapper Megan Thee Stallion is also expected to give a special performance.
Harris will then hold a meeting with local leaders and reproductive rights advocates.
The campaign is expecting a competitive election between Trump and Harris as they look at the state’s infrastructure as an advantage. Communications Director Michael Tyler wants things to be “close.” “That’s why we have the team and the operation in place to make sure that we can turn out every single Harris voter in the state of Georgia,” Tyler said.
“We win by staying true to our values of compassion, of empathy, of doing right by our neighbors… We win by caring and fighting for every single vote in every single county. This is not my first speech on the back of a pickup truck.”
