In one of her final pitches to Pennsylvania voters this afternoon, Kamala Harris has once again avoided mentioning her opponent – Donald Trump – by name.
While making a short speech to canvassers in Scranton, the vice-president said the campaign and the country are about building coalition and conversation as she seemed to lead with a message of hope and positivity.
“What you are all signing up to do today, and what you’ve been doing – like, let’s enjoy it, you know?” the vice-president said.
“We rise and fall together,” she added, in what was her first of four stops in the state. “That’s the strength of who we are.”
Pennsylvania, a must-win for either candidate, is the swing state with the most electoral votes (19 out of 538) and it will likely prove decisive in the election’s outcome.
Both presidential candidates are making stops in Pennsylvania today, with Harris finishing the day in Philadelphia and Trump in Grand Rapids, Michigan – another key swing state.
