This Sunday (October 20, 2024), US Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic Party’s presidential candidate, is scheduled to make campaign visits at two churches in Georgia to celebrate her 60th birthday. Focused on the gospel performances, one of the events is expected to feature singer Stevie Wonder, 74, author of hits such as “I Just Called to Say I Love You,” “Superstition,” and “Isn’t She Lovely.”
Former President Donald Trump (Republican Party candidate), who will seek to return to office as a Republican, is expected to work at a McDonald’s in Pennsylvania. An aide said he will fry French fries at the establishment “just for fun,” in a dig at Kamala, who has said in interviews and campaign events that she worked at the fast-food chain during her youth. The information is from the Reuters news agency.
Georgia and Pennsylvania are believed to have a significant role in deciding how this year’s November 5 election turns out. Pennsylvania switched to the Republican Party for the first time since 1988 when it supported Trump in the 2016 election. Then, in 2020, Joe Biden, a Democrat, won majorities in both states.
The term “swing states” refers to areas where voters alternately support Democrats and Republicans. Said another way, party loyalty is unclear. Unlike historically aligned states like California, which has elected Democrats to office since 1992, or Alabama, where the Republican Party has won 44 consecutive elections, this state is not like the others.
