Former President Barack Obama visited Wisconsin, a battleground state, to rally support for Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. Obama criticized Donald Trump, calling his words dangerous and extreme. He urged voters to consider fundamental values when heading to the polls, citing Trump’s false claims about aid distribution after Hurricane Helene. Walz also criticized Trump’s supporter, Elon Musk, accusing him of corruption. The crowd at the rally showed enthusiasm for Democratic candidates, but there was concern about the tight race, with some voters expressing worry about the impact of Trump’s lies and manipulation. Despite the close competition, Wisconsin Democratic Party Chair Ben Wikler expressed confidence in the party’s organization and canvassing efforts, as well as in the ability of Harris and Walz to resonate with voters. The race in Wisconsin was described as a “pure coin flip,” but Democrats were hopeful that their efforts would ultimately lead to victory.
