Harris to Stump for Ossoff in Georgia
Harris to Stump for Ossoff in Georgia
The News
Former Vice President Kamala Harris will campaign with Sen. Jon Ossoff in Georgia next month, a test of how much political value she still carries after her 2024 loss.
Harris will headline a Fulton County Democrats dinner alongside Ossoff on Oct. 30, the final stop of her midterm campaign schedule.
The appearance lands as several Democrats in closely watched races have kept their distance from her — and some have flatly rejected her offers to campaign.
Ossoff, running for reelection in a battleground state, has $42.5 million in his campaign war chest.
The Numbers
$42.5 million in Ossoff's account. A 13-point Harris loss in Iowa in 2024 — the figure cited by Iowa Democrats who said no thanks.
Timeline
Harris loses the presidential election, including Iowa by 13 points, a result candidates there now cite in declining her help.
Reports surface that Harris is planning a midterm campaign blitz, with Georgia as the closing act.
Harris is also slated to hold events in Nevada and in two California House races.
Harris headlines the Fulton County Democrats dinner with Ossoff, her last scheduled midterm stop.
Reactions
Iowa candidates Josh Turek and Rob Sand, along with Alaska's Mary Peltola, all declined Harris's help.
Rob Sand, running for governor in Iowa, told reporters: "We need some new leadership."
The split among Democrats is straightforward: whether Harris is an asset worth deploying in competitive races or a liability better kept at arm's length.
What's Next
Harris's October schedule — Nevada, two California House races, then Georgia — will show which campaigns want her on stage before November.
Harris has said publicly she has not decided whether to run for president in 2028.
More
Georgia is one of the cycle's marquee Senate fights, and Ossoff's money advantage gives Democrats a reason to stage a high-profile closing event there rather than in a state Harris lost badly.
