According to insider sources, Vice President Kamala Harris is set to appear at a rally on Tuesday alongside her vice-presidential candidate.

Harris stands as the only candidate for the US Democratic nomination for the upcoming presidential election.

The Democratic National Committee (DNC) has announced preparations for the formal nomination. From August 1 to 5, the party convention delegates will decide on the candidacy in a virtual vote.

As per the DNC, Harris is the sole candidate who has met the nomination requirements.

Rally in Philadelphia

According to Kurier, insiders reveal that Harris is planning a rally with her yet-to-be-announced vice-presidential candidate in Philadelphia on Tuesday.

Two sources familiar with the matter have mentioned this, fueling speculation that Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro might be Harris's running mate.

The Harris campaign, however, stated that no decision has been finalized. Insiders had previously suggested a planned announcement on Monday, but there has been no official confirmation.

Harris's Campaign Strategy

At a recent campaign event in Atlanta, Georgia, Harris appeared confident in front of around 10,000 supporters.

"The dynamics in this race are shifting, and Donald Trump is feeling it," she declared, promising a Democratic victory in the crucial swing state.

To engage young voters, the event featured popular artists like rappers Megan Thee Stallion and Quavo.

With less than 100 days before the November 5 election, Democrats are recalibrating their strategy.

Georgia, which narrowly went to the Democrats in 2020, is a key swing state that could determine the election's outcome. Trump, who attempted to overturn Biden's narrow victory in Georgia, now faces legal challenges related to his actions.
