Detroit is buzzing with excitement this week as Vice President Kamala Harris makes her way to Michigan to energize voters in this critical battleground state. With the election drawing closer, Harris is set to kick off a series of campaign events, building momentum as early voting is already underway and crucial deadlines approach. Let’s take a closer look at what to expect!
Harris is expected to arrive late on Monday night, ready to hit the ground running. On Tuesday, she will sit down for a conversation with radio host Charlemagne tha God in Detroit. This event is special because it will air at 5 p.m. ET on several radio stations that carry “The Breakfast Club” program. Fans and listeners will get a chance to hear her thoughts and ideas listen to their favorite hits.
In addition to her radio appearance, Harris will also meet with Black entrepreneurs in Detroit. Her campaign emphasizes the importance of engaging local business leaders and fostering economic growth opportunities within the community. Supporting Black-owned businesses is a key focus, and her visit is a great way to showcase that commitment.
But the excitement doesn’t end there. Harris is slated to return to Michigan on Friday for a busy schedule that includes stops in Grand Rapids, Lansing, and Oakland County. These regions are also key players in the state’s electoral landscape, adding to the significance of her visits.
On Saturday, Harris will be in Detroit to officially kick off early voting in the city. This is quite timely since voters in Canton Township and East Lansing will also start voting early in-person on October 21. It’s never been easier for Michiganders to have their voices heard, with early voting spanning from October 26 to November 3 statewide, complementing absentee voting that began earlier.
As the campaign heats up, polls show that Harris is in a tight race against former President Donald Trump. In light of this challenge, she has openly described herself as the “underdog” in this presidential election. The upcoming days are crucial, and Harris is pulling out all the stops to rally support.
Since announcing her last-minute presidential bid following President Biden’s exit from the race, Harris has ramped up her campaigning efforts in Michigan. She has already held larger rallies in the state, including two notable events—one at an airport hangar outside Detroit and another in Flint. Additionally, she has engaged with union members at various smaller events, emphasizing her commitment to the working class by stopping at a UAW local, attending a Labor Day event in Detroit, and making an appearance at a fire station in Redford Township.
Moreover, she partnered with Oprah Winfrey for a unique virtual campaign event that had a live audience—showcasing her dynamic approach to connecting with voters.
As Election Day nears, the urgency to get involved is palpable. Voters are encouraged to check out local resources, stay informed, and make their voices count. Michigan’s elections this year promise to be exciting, so be sure to explore voter guides and keep up with the latest information.
If you have thoughts, questions, or opinions, engaging in conversations and sharing your views with others is always encouraged. After all, democracy thrives on our participation!
