Kamala Harris campaign to start bus tour in Palm Beach County Tuesday

Democrats may feel Florida is in play after all, given Kamala Harris’ announcement that her campaign will be in “Donald Trump’s backyard” Tuesday.

Harris will send surrogates to begin a “reproductive freedom” bus tour in Palm Beach County Tuesday.

Per the campaign: “Senator Amy Klobuchar, Harris-Walz campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez, Republican TV personality Ana Navarro, and reproductive rights storyteller Anya Cook will hold Trump directly accountable for the devastating impacts of overturning Roe v. Wade, including threatening access to IVF.”

While neither Harris herself nor running mate Tim Walz will be on this bus tour as they were during a Georgia swing this week, the campaign depicts it as important outreach.

“This election is about freedom — and the American people want and deserve the freedom to make their own health care decisions. Our campaign is hitting the road to meet voters in their communities, underscore the stakes of this election for reproductive freedom, and present them with the Harris-Walz ticket’s vision to move our country forward, which stands in stark contrast to Donald Trump’s plans to drag us back. As we crisscross the country, we’ll be driving that contrast home to red and blue voters and independents,” Chavez Rodriguez said.

and the richest. Palm Beach County is heavily and reliably Democratic. Palm Beach, Broward (Fort Lauderdale) and Miami-Dade are the principle Democratic counties in Florida.
