Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump are ramping up their election campaigns, with Harris visiting Michigan to emphasize economic initiatives and manufacturing jobs. Meanwhile, Trump is targeting religious voters in Georgia, reinforcing the diverging narratives each candidate is presenting to Americans ahead of the 2024 election.

Harris's campaign journey included stops in Pennsylvania where she engaged Black communities and discussed faith. In Michigan, she aims to draw attention to her commitment to manufacturing via visits to facilities like Corning Inc's Hemlock Semiconductor. Trump's past rally in New York was marked by controversial remarks from supporters before he continued campaigning in Georgia.

Their campaigns are a battle for the undecided voters in swing states, while each tries to rally their base for early and election-day voting. Harris accuses Trump of posing a democratic threat following his 2020 election result denial, juxtaposed with her economic policies. Trump highlights his record pre-pandemic but faces criticism for late-term economic impacts.
