Democratic presidential candidate and U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris attends a campaign rally in Erie, Pennsylvania, United States, October 14, 2024.

Harris will spend her final day on the campaign trail holding rallies across Pennsylvania, a must-win battleground state that Republican and Democratic strategists see as the key to winning the Oval Office.

Harris will start the day in Scranton, Joe Biden’s hometown, before holding a rally in Allentown and then traveling to Reading. On Monday evening, Harris will hold rallies in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. The latter two will feature musical guests including Lady Gaga in Pittsburgh and Katy Perry in Philadelphia, according to the campaign.

Pennsylvania went for Trump in the 2016 presidential election, but shifted to Biden in 2020. Polls show Harris and Trump neck and neck in the state.
