Two days later, she is joining Oprah Winfrey in Michigan at her \u201cUnite for America\u201d livestream event with 140 different grassroots organizations. Harris&#8217; visit to Wisconsin on Friday will be her fourth since she launched her White House run in July.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Harris&#8217; campaign has a large operation in the states with hundreds of staff and on-the-ground outreach efforts. Supporters in Wisconsin have knocked on more than 500,000 doors and that since last week\u2019s debate with Trump, the campaign has signed up more than 3,000 new volunteers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Overall,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/trump-harris-presidential-election-2024-labor-day-151f82b59473d29a448ef1cea9afe471\">Harris\u2019 team is on pace to outspend Republican Donald Trump\u2019s<\/a>&nbsp;campaign 2-to-1 in television advertising over the next two months. Even before Democratic President Joe Biden ended his reelection campaign and made way for Harris, the Democrats wielded superior campaign infrastructure in battleground states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Harris\u2019 team, which includes her campaign and an allied super political action committee, has more than $280 million in television and radio reservations for the period between Tuesday and Election Day, according to the media tracking firm AdImpact. Trump\u2019s team has $133 million reserved for the final stretch, although that number is expected to grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Politics\/wireStory\/harris-plans-wisconsin-visit-effort-shore-support-key-113685283\">abcnews<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WILMINGTON, Del. &#8212;&nbsp;Vice President Kamala Harris has upcoming events scheduled in&nbsp;Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin&nbsp;as her campaign focuses spending on the \u201cblue wall\u201d states with the Nov. 5 election nearing.
