WASHINGTON (TNND) — Vice President Kamala Harris is wrapping up what's been a remarkably short campaign with a sprint to the finish line, going all in on Pennsylvania and its 19 Electoral College votes that could send her to the Oval Office.
On Monday, Harris' first stop was a canvass kickoff in Scranton where she thanked volunteers.
"As we are getting out the vote, as we are canvassing, let's be intentional about building community, about building community, about building coalitions, about reminding people we all have so much more in common than what separates us. There is power in that," Harris said.
Harris then headed south to deliver remarks at a rally in Allentown. In the evening, Harris will appear at rallies and concerts in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia.
Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff will join Harris in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia after appearing at a canvass lunch in Greeneville, North Carolina.
Democratic Vice Presidential Nominee Tim Walz and his wife Gwen spent Monday campaigning across Wisconsin and Michigan, the other two states that make up the "blue wall" that's been key to Democrats' past presidential wins.
“The thing is upon us now, folks. I know there’s a lot of anxiety but the decisions made over the next 24, 36 hours when those polls close will shape not just the next four years, they will shape the coming generations," Walz said at an event in La Crosse, Wisconsin.
Big-name Democratic surrogates covered ground in other swing states, like Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in Michigan; First Lady Jill Biden and Gov. Roy Cooper in North Carolina; Sen. Raphael Warnock in Georgia; Sen. Mark Kelly and former Rep. Gabby Giffords in Arizona; and actors and activistsDulé Hill and Rosario Dawson in Nevada.
Notably absent from the campaign trail was President Joe Biden, who spent Monday at the White House.
The campaign is embracing the star power of A-list celebrities appearing or performing at campaign events across the country, like Lady Gaga, Oprah, Ricky Martin, The Roots, Katy Perry, Jon Bon Jovi, Christina Aguilera, Sugarland, 2 Chainz, Robert De Niro and more.
Get-out-the-vote efforts will continue into Election Day.
On Tuesday morning, a virtual "Everyone for Kamala" phone banking event billed as the largest ever will feature celebrities like Ben Stiller, Jessica Alba, John Legend, Kerry Washington, Marc Cuban and Uzo Aduba, and Democratic leaders including Rep. Eric Swalwell of California and Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro.
