Here’s the latest on the presidential race.
Former President Donald J. Trump and his running mate, Senator JD Vance of Ohio, rallied in Atlanta on Saturday night, campaigning in a battleground state where Vice President Kamala Harris rallied earlier this week.
Mr. Trump and Mr. Vance held their event in the same 8,000-seat arena where Ms. Harris held her campaign’s largest rally to date. In a meandering speech that lasted more than 90 minutes, Mr. Trump insulted Ms. Harris’s intellect and communication skills and repeatedly attacked her over immigration, crime and inflation. He also tried to relitigate his defeat in Georgia in 2020. “I won the state twice,” he claimed falsely. (President Biden won Georgia by roughly 12,000 votes in 2020, and Mr. Trump has been indicted on charges related to his efforts to reverse his loss there.)
Ms. Harris has no public events on her schedule this weekend, as she is expected to meet with several of the men thought to be finalists to be her running mate. One contender, Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota, canceled a planned trip to New Hampshire on Sunday. “The governor’s schedule has changed,” his spokesman said.
Ms. Harris is expected to announce her choice by Tuesday, when the new ticket will begin a five-day tour of battleground states.
