Harris spent part of Labor Day in Detroit, Michigan, her second visit since she became the nominee. She and Walz were previously in Detroit at the beginning of August. As the Democratic convention was convening last month, Harris and Walz held another rally at the Fiserv Forum in Wisconsin on the same night as the ceremonial roll call vote.
“When you look at the fact that there are so few swing states, I think it negates a lot of Harris’s financial advantage because the playing field is relatively narrow,” added Nicholas. Trump won Pennsylvania by just more than 44,000 votes in 2016 against Clinton, while Biden won the state by a little over 80,000 votes in 2020.
