In a last-minute push before Election Day, former President Barack Obama rallied in Milwaukee on Sunday to support Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign.
Appearing before a Green Bay Packers game, Obama encouraged voters to cast their ballots, with early voting still open for a few more hours.
You can still get it done before the game, Obama said, playfully assuring fans he wouldn’t be offended if they prioritized voting.
He highlighted Harris’s candidacy, proclaiming that America is ready for a new story and a better story, urging Wisconsin to support Harris’s bid.
The Badger State, which holds 10 critical electoral votes, remains a hotly contested battleground in the presidential race. Both Harris and former President Donald Trump have made multiple visits to Wisconsin, emphasizing its importance in this election.
Wisconsin’s political trajectory has been closely watched since 2016, when Donald Trump narrowly won it, breaking a nearly three-decade streak of Democratic presidential wins.
Joe Biden reclaimed Wisconsin for Democrats in 2020 with a slim margin, signaling the state’s potential to swing either way in the upcoming election.
