CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Former President Bill Clinton was in Charlotte on Sunday to campaign for Vice President Kamala Harris.
The former president attended a Charlotte church service and encourage worshipers to cast their ballot for Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.
He was joined by national labor leader Fred Redmond, who talked about the importance of voting.
Clinton's visit to Charlotte's St. Paul Baptist Church came one day after Harris' rally in Charlotte on the final day of early voting in North Carolina. Her opponent, former President Donald Trump is also holding a rally on Saturday, as he's scheduled to speak with supporters in Gastonia.
Clinton is the second former president to stump for Harris in the Queen City, following Barack Obama's Charlotte rally on Oct. 25.
North Carolina is on track to beat its early voting record set in 2020. Recent polling shows Harris and Trump in a dead heat in the Tar Heel State. Many political experts say the entire election could come down to the state's results, with Democrats putting together an all-out blitz to boost voter turnout in Mecklenburg County. Republicans remain skeptical that Democrats can get enough votes in Charlotte to swing the state, pointing to several counties surrounding Charlotte that are strongly Republican.
Both campaigns have spent considerable time and money in North Carolina, with the candidates making numerous stops to rally voters statewide.
