SUMMARY: With less than three weeks until Election Day, presidential candidates are campaigning in key swing states to influence undecided voters as early voting begins. Former President Trump held a rally in Georgia, urging high voter turnout and addressing criticism over his trade tariffs and comments on the January 6th insurrection. Meanwhile, Vice President Kamala Harris focused on supporting Black voters in Michigan, asserting her commitment beyond election tactics. A judge in Georgia recently blocked a new rule requiring hand-counting of ballots after polls closed, deeming it impractical so close to the election. Early voting is seeing significant participation.

We’re now less than 3 weeks from Election Day.
