Harris, Walz draw big crowds in Wisconsin

Tens of thousands of people may have gathered in Wisconsin to support Kamala Harris and running mate Tim Walz.

NBC News’ Jack Taylor posted this video of a crowd in Wisconsin:

Harris and Walz packed the gym on Temple University’s campus in Philadelphia on Tuesday, and Wisconsin’s crowd could be even bigger on Wednesday afternoon.

Democrats’ apparent momentum in polls and fundraising was also reflected in crowd sizes. Harris and Walz drew huge crowds and presented Trump with something he had never faced before.

The Democratic coalition behind Harris and Walz is more united than it was behind Clinton and Kaine in 2016. Power returned to the house of white desire.

With Kamala Harris leading the 2024 election, voter excitement and enthusiasm are back.

Trump needs depressed voters with low turnout to win.

The election may soon be free of Trump and the Republican Party. It’s not gone yet, but the large crowds Harris drew suggest voters are ready to move in a new direction.
