What You Need To Know

  • Vice President Kamala Harris is planning to campaign in Madison, Wis. on Friday

  • It's the fourth time she's visited the Badger State since she launched her White House campaign in July

  • Harris' entry into the race has enlivened the Democratic Party's base in Wisconsin, particularly in areas where she must run up big margins to carry a state that Joe Biden flipped from Republican Donald Trump in 2020

Democrats said they are reaching out to key Dane County voters who are needed to win the election in November. According to her campaign, Dane County is the fastest-growing county in the state, and Democratic margins increased from 2020 to 2022. 

Harris' entry into the race has enlivened the Democratic Party's base in Wisconsin, particularly in areas where she must run up big margins to carry a state that Joe Biden flipped from Republican Donald Trump in 2020.

Her campaign said that since she entered the race, supporters in Wisconsin have knocked on more than 500,000 doors and that since last week's debate with Trump, the campaign has signed up more than 3,000 new volunteers.

When Biden was still running, organizers in Wisconsin said they had trouble getting volunteers to go door to door, a staple of any campaign.

Harris' running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, has also been campaigning in Wisconsin, visiting Wausau and Superior this past weekend.
