VP Kamala Harris to campaign at University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Thursday

Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris will be at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee on Thursday for a "meet and greet," according to student media.

Harris' presidential campaign did not immediately respond to questions Thursday afternoon regarding Media Milwaukee reporting that multiple students had received invitations via text message.

The campaign previously announced that Harris would be in Milwaukee, La Crosse and Green Bay on Thursday.

The visits come less than three weeks before the Nov. 5 election in which Harris will square off against former President Donald Trump. The two candidates are locked in a tight race in this critical swing state.

Harris previously visited UW-Milwaukee in May 2021, when she toured the university's clean energies laboratories and discussed President Joe Biden's infrastructure plan during her first trip to Wisconsin as vice president. The following year, in September 2022, she also met with UWM students and Latino leaders and visited a political science class.
