Election Closing Arguments Focus on Trump Impact

As the November election approaches, candidates intensify their campaigns with focused closing arguments, emphasizing key demographics and issues. Kamala Harris is framing her campaign against Donald Trump's shadow, with plans for an impactful speech at the Ellipse where Trump previously incited a riot. Harris seeks to connect with young black men, Arab Americans, and college-educated suburban women, particularly leveraging the momentum generated from past election cycles. Meanwhile, Trump continues to rally his base, targeting low-propensity voters and promoting themes of masculinity and revenge. Voter sentiment appears polarized, with Trump supporters expressing resignation while Harris supporters show deep anxiety about democracy's future if Trump wins, considering extreme responses like relocating. The segment of the electorate identified as low propensity voters is a significant focal point for both campaigns, complicating traditional turnout strategies. Candidates are urged to focus on relatable issues – notably, reproductive rights, immigration, and economic concerns – as they make their final appeals in battleground states. Harris's campaign strategy seems to hinge on the notion that engaging with a broader coalition contrasts sharply with Trump's narrower base engagement.
