Only eight days until Election Day.

In the final stretch of the 2024 presidential election, Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump are focusing on two crucial battlegrounds that could decide the race for the White House: Michigan and Georgia.

Harris will hold a rally with her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, in Ann Arbor, Michigan, on Monday. Meanwhile, Trump will hold his own rally in Atlanta, Georgia, and his running mate, Sen. J.D. Vance, R-Ohio, will meet with voters in Wasau, Wisconsin.

Where do Trump and Harris stand in the polls?

Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are neck-and-neck in the national polls. Trump leads Harris by 0.1 percentage points in the average of Real Clear Politics’ national polls, well within each survey’s margin of error.

It’s also a close race in battlegrounds across the country. For example, according to the Real Clear Politics poll average in Michigan, Trump leads by just 0.2 percentage points.

Where will Trump campaign on Monday?

Trump will hold a rally in Atlanta, Georgia, on Monday at 6 p.m. Georgia could easily determine the 2024 race, a crucial southern swing state that Trump won in 2016 but lost to President Joe Biden in 2020.

Where is Harris campaigning on Monday?

Kamala Harris will hold an event Monday in Ann Arbor, Michigan, along with her vice presidential running mate, Tim Walz, and singer-songwriter Maggie Rogers, her campaign said Friday.

Harris has been spending a lot of time lately in Michigan, a key battleground state: Earlier this month, she hosted three events before campaigning in southeastern Michigan with rapper Lizzo. Last week she was in Oakland County with Republican former U.S. Rep. Liz Cheney, and on Saturday she campaigned with former first lady Michelle Obama.
