**Trump and Harris Campaign in Key States as Election Draws Near**

In the heat of the 2024 campaign, Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump are intensifying their efforts in pivotal battleground states. Harris recently held rallies in Michigan, while Trump received a briefing on Hurricane Helene's damage in Georgia alongside GOP Governor Brian Kemp. This meeting marked their first encounter since their contentious clash in the 2020 election. Trump is scheduled to address a rally in North Carolina tonight as both he and Harris make their bids for voter support ahead of Election Day.

During her visit to Michigan, Harris is expected to meet with a group of Muslim and Arab American leaders in Flint. This demographic is particularly significant in Michigan, a state that played a crucial role in the previous election and is home to a substantial Arab American population. Meanwhile, President Joe Biden has expressed confidence that the upcoming election will be "free and fair," though he raised concerns about potential unrest. Biden pointed out that Trump's running mate, Sen. JD Vance, did not acknowledge Trump's loss in the 2020 election during a recent debate.

Recent polling shows a neck-and-neck race, with Harris holding 49% support compared to Trump’s 48%, according to a national CNN Poll of Polls.

In Georgia, a judge dismissed a lawsuit from GOP officials in Dekalb County who questioned the security of Dominion voting machines. These officials sought to have voting records and ballot images released within 24 hours of the election. Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and other state officials reiterated the security of the voting equipment, denouncing the lawsuit as an attempt to mislead voters and preemptively question the election results should Trump lose.

Harris is also expanding her campaign reach through media, including a recent interview on the popular "Call Her Daddy" podcast. This platform, known for its candid discussions on sex and relationships, provided Harris a space to discuss reproductive freedom and abortion rights. The episode is expected to be released next week. Harris has also appeared on "All The Smoke," a sports podcast hosted by two retired NBA stars. Trump, on his part, has appeared on multiple podcasts, including a recent interview with financial broadcaster Dave Ramsey.

Another notable figure in this campaign is JP Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon, who has decided to remain neutral and not endorse any candidate for president. Despite Trump’s claims to the contrary, Dimon’s spokesperson confirmed that he will not be taking sides. Dimon, a long-time Democrat, has engaged with both parties to share his policy views, and his wife has notably donated around $300,000 to Democratic entities associated with Harris.

In Georgia, Trump praised Governor Kemp for his response to Hurricane Helene, acknowledging the severe impact of the storm in the state. This meeting with Kemp, their first since the 2020 election fallout, underscores the ongoing tensions from that period when Kemp refused to support Trump's efforts to overturn the election results in Georgia.

As the campaign trail heats up, both Harris and Trump are making strategic moves to secure voter support in the final days leading up to Election Day.
