Washington Post: “Sen. Kamala D. Harris visited Milwaukee on Monday for her first in-person campaign stop since being named the Democratic vice-presidential nominee, highlighting the campaigns’ continued convergence on Wisconsin, the epicenter of ongoing protests against police violence and a state President Trump won by fewer than 30,000 votes in 2016. Hours after Vice President Pence toured an energy facility in La Crosse — and just days after Biden himself visited Kenosha and Milwaukee — Harris toured an International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers training facility and held a roundtable with Black business owners in Milwaukee. President Trump also visited Kenosha last week. Former vice president Joe Biden spent Monday in Harrisburg, Pa., the first of two Pennsylvania visits on his schedule this week. Recent polls have shown the race tightening in that state, which Trump took by fewer than 70,000 votes in 2016.”

“Harris began the visit with a private meeting with the family of Jacob Blake, the Black man left paralyzed after police shot him seven times in Kenosha last month. Members of his legal team were also in attendance. Biden met with Blake’s family during his visit to Wisconsin last week, but neither Trump nor Pence has met with Blake’s family. ‘They’re an incredible family, and what they’ve endured, they do it with such dignity and grace. And you know, they’re carrying the weight of a lot of voices on their shoulders,’ Harris said. According to a statement released by Blake’s attorney Ben Crump, Blake told Harris he was proud of her.”
