CBS DETROIT — Vice President Kamala Harris and her soon-to-be-announced running mate will visit Detroit next week.
Details on Harris’ visit have not yet been released, but her office confirmed that she will be visiting battleground states Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona and Nevada. A UAW release said Harris will visit Detroit on Aug. 7 and meet with UAW members and leaders.
Harris has not yet announced her running mate; however, top-tier candidates include Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, Sen. Mark Kelly of Arizona, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.
She is expected to make her pick next Monday.
Harris’ run in the 2024 presidential election came after President Biden announced he was dropping out of the race ahead of the Democratic National Convention in August. He immediately endorsed Harris for the Democratic nomination.
