Kamala Harris Gains Republican Endorsements in Wisconsin

Vice President Kamala Harris has gained significant Republican endorsements in Wisconsin, a crucial swing state for the upcoming elections, including backing from outgoing Republican state Sen. Robert Cowles and former Republican mayor Shawn Reilly. Her outreach has attracted both support and skepticism, with a poll revealing that 10% of progressive voters do not intend to vote for her, partly due to her alignment with former Republican Congresswoman Liz Cheney. Meanwhile, both Harris and former President Donald Trump are utilizing local sports figures to boost their campaigns, with Trump campaigning alongside Brett Favre and Harris with NBA coach Doc Rivers. A recent poll shows Harris and Trump nearly tied in Wisconsin, with Harris leading slightly in Door County, a key bellwether. As both candidates intensify their efforts in the state, Harris aims to bridge the gap with moderate Republicans while facing concerns from her progressive base. The outcome in Wisconsin is critical, as it holds 10 electoral votes and could influence the overall election results.
