Former Vice President Kamala Harris is preparing to campaign in several key states where Democratic candidates are vying for victory in the upcoming midterm elections. These states—Georgia and Nevada—are considered battlegrounds, meaning the outcome of their races could significantly influence the balance of power in Congress. Harris will join Senator Jon Ossoff in Georgia, where they will campaign together ahead of a fundraising event hosted by the Fulton County Democrats on October 30 in Atlanta. She will also travel to Nevada to support Attorney General and gubernatorial candidate Aaron Ford, as well as Democratic challengers in two competitive House races in her home state of California. According to a spokesperson for Harris, the success of the November midterm elections is crucial for Democrats to counter policies from the Trump administration and to address rising costs for American families. The spokesperson added that Harris will continue to support candidates in races where her involvement can make a difference. The Georgia campaign plans were first reported by CNN, and Ossoff’s campaign confirmed they would be campaigning with Harris. Earlier, Ossoff’s team told the news outlet POLITICO that they welcomed Harris’s support, either in person or through public endorsements. However, not all Democratic candidates are eager to align with Harris, the party’s most recent presidential nominee. In Iowa, where Democrats are trying to flip a Senate seat and reclaim the governor’s office, both candidates have turned down Harris’s assistance. Similarly, Mary Peltola, the Democratic candidate for the Senate in Alaska, has stated she is not seeking endorsements from anyone based in the continental United States. Some House candidates in more conservative states and rural districts have also declined her support. Harris has not confirmed whether she will seek the presidency again in 2028, focusing instead on the current midterm elections. In a recent podcast interview with soccer player and activist Megan Rapinoe, Harris said the midterms are her main focus, as she works to help Democrats regain control of Congress. She acknowledged that she has not yet decided about a 2028 presidential run but emphasized that the results of the 2026 midterms will be more immediate and impactful for the nation’s political landscape.
