Kamala Harris will campaign with Sen. Jon Ossoff in Georgia and headline a fundraising dinner hosted by Fulton County Democrats next month, marking her latest involvement in the midterm elections.<\/p>\n
Harris is also slated to join Nevada attorney general and gubernatorial candidate Aaron Ford next month in Las Vegas and campaign with Democratic challengers in two competitive House races in her home state.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is critical for Democrats to win this November so we can fight the Trump administration\u2019s corruption and work to lower costs for the American people,\u201d a Harris spokesperson said in a statement. \u201cVice President Harris will continue to do whatever is needed to support candidates in races where she can be helpful.\u201d<\/p>\n
The events in Georgia were first reported by CNN<\/a>. Harris will also be the keynote speaker at the fundraising dinner<\/a> on Oct. 30 in Atlanta. An Ossoff campaign spokesperson confirmed his plan to campaign with Harris. Ossoff\u2019s campaign previously told POLITICO that it would welcome Harris to Georgia to stump with or on behalf of the senator.<\/p>\n Still, the announcements come as some Democrats have been keeping distance<\/a> from the party\u2019s last presidential nominee.<\/p>\n In Iowa, where Democrats are hoping to flip a Senate seat and retake the governor\u2019s mansion in a state where Harris lost by 13 points in 2024, the two candidates both declined to have<\/a> Harris\u2019 help. So did Mary Peltola<\/a>, the Democratic Senate candidate in Alaska who \u201cisn\u2019t seeking endorsements from anyone from the Lower 48,\u201d and House candidates in some red states and rural districts.<\/p>\n For her part, Harris has skirted the question of whether she will run again in 2028 and said she is focusing on the midterm elections.<\/p>\n \u201cRight now midterms [are] full-time occupying my thoughts, my mind and my work,\u201d Harris said in a recent podcast episode<\/a> with Megan Rapinoe on Vox Media. \u201cI’m spending full time working on doing everything I can to help people restore some balance in our government, which is through the midterms, winning back Congress, the House and the Senate.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI haven’t decided. But honestly, from my perspective, \u201928 doesn’t matter if we don’t win \u201926,\u201d she said to a question on another presidential bid.<\/p>\n
