Donald Trump is also campaigning in Pennsylvania on Saturday and Sunday.

The vice president, who turns 60 on Sunday, will have a first rally Saturday in Detroit, Michigan, one of three key historically industrial northern states on which she has focused her efforts all week.

Donald Trump, 78, responded by denying reports that he had canceled interviews. Kamala Harris is a “failure who has less energy than a rabbit,” he snapped.

Kamala Harris will deliver a speech in Atlanta, where she will be joined by singer Usher. They should both encourage voters to vote early, a possibility opened since Tuesday and which has already seen a million people cast their vote in four days in the state.
