Kamala Harris to campaign in Texas with Allred
Vice President Kamala Harris will campaign in Texas with Senate candidate Rep. Colin Allred (D-TX) on Friday, according to a report, just days before the 2024 election.
Harris will hold a rally beside the representative for the 32nd Congressional District to protest Texas’s policies on abortion, according to the Texas Tribune. The event will be held sometime between 3 and 8 p.m. CDT, but the location has not yet been announced other than that it will take place in Houston.
The event will focus on Republicans’ stance on abortion in the state. Allred has campaigned against Cruz’s record on abortion for months.
“What women in Texas are facing every day under Ted Cruz’s abortion ban is unacceptable,” Allred said, according to the outlet. “By supporting an abortion ban that makes no exceptions for rape, incest or the life of the mother, Ted Cruz has put women at risk.”
This will mark the first time Harris has campaigned with Allred, who is facing Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), who is polling almost 4 points ahead of his Democratic challenger. Cruz has polled ahead of his opponent consistently since the race started.
Trump leads Harris by 5 points in Texas, according to a University of Texas/Texas Politics Project poll.
Cruz defeated his previous opponent, Beto O’Rourke, in 2018 by just over 2 percentage points.
