New York (AP) — Vice President Kamala Harris made an unannounced trip to New York to appear on an episode of “Saturday Night Live,” briefly stepping away from the battleground states in which she is campaigning with just three election days. .

Harris left on Air Force Two after a campaign stop Saturday in Charlotte, North Carolina. She had to go to Detroit. But once the plane was in the air, aides said it was actually heading toward New York.

Saturday’s “SNL” broadcast airs at 11:30 p.m. ET on NBC. Comedian John Mulaney is the host and singer Chappell Roan will perform.

This is the last episode of SNL before Election Day on Tuesday.
