Former Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, as well as former first lady Michelle Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, are set to support Vice President Kamala Harris in the final stretch of the election campaign. They are all energized and eager to help Harris in various ways such as fundraising, holding campaign events, and encouraging voter registration and turnout. The Obamas and Clintons will focus on different constituencies, with Bill Clinton targeting rural areas and Latino voters, while Hillary Clinton will focus on women, LGBTQ voters, and reproductive freedom.
The Obamas and Clintons have been in touch with Harris, offering support and advice. In addition to the high-profile supporters, Democratic governors and senators like Cory Booker and Laphonza Butler will also serve as key surrogates for Harris. The campaign is also working to engage digital surrogates to reach more voters, leveraging the following of online content creators without necessarily planning in-person events for them.
President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden will also campaign for Harris, focusing on shoring up support among older white voters and education. Biden, along with the Obamas and Clintons, will continue to travel to battleground states and hold joint events with Harris leading up to Election Day. The campaign is gearing up for a strong push in the coming weeks with the support of a diverse group of high-profile and digital surrogates.
