### Presidential Campaigns Intensify in Key Battleground States

As the presidential race heads into its final week, both Democratic and Republican tickets are concentrating their efforts on critical swing states. Pennsylvania, Michigan, North Carolina, and Wisconsin have emerged as the primary focus for Kamala Harris, Donald Trump, and their respective running mates since the Labor Day weekend, traditionally marking a more vigorous phase in campaigning.

Compared to their Republican counterparts, the Democratic ticket of Kamala Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz has demonstrated more activity in recent weeks. According to data from the Associated Press tracking the campaigns' public events, Harris and Walz held 42 campaign events across seven pivotal states between October 14 and this past weekend. In contrast, Trump and his running mate, Sen. JD Vance, conducted 25 events during the same period.

The disparity is particularly evident in Wisconsin. Harris and Walz visited the state eight times between October 14 and Sunday, while Trump and Vance made only one visit. However, Republicans are slated to make a return to Wisconsin this week, with a rally planned in Milwaukee.

Tracking from Labor Day through this past weekend reveals that both campaigns have prioritized Pennsylvania, making a total of 43 visits. This figure surpasses the combined total of their visits to Georgia, Arizona, and Nevada, which stands at 40. The focus on Pennsylvania underscores its importance in the tightly contested presidential race.
