Harris among top Democrats planning to campaign in Virginia ahead of election
CNN
Vice President Kamala Harris has plans to campaign for Terry McAuliffe before the November election, a source familiar with the plan tells CNN, adding another top name to the growing list of Democrats coming to the commonwealth to help the gubernatorial nominee.
McAuliffe, in an attempt to jolt apathetic Democratic voters just weeks out from the off-year election, has called on a number of top politicians to help him in his bid to win a second term as Virginia's governor. The strategy has lad Republican nominee Glenn Youngkin to criticize McAuliffe for nationalizing the race.
First lady Jill Biden will campaign for McAuliffe on Friday outside of Richmond, top Georgia Democrat Stacey Abrams will campaign with McAuliffe on Sunday in Norfolk and Northern Virginia, and former President Barack Obama will headline an event in Richmond on October 23.
