Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance is set to return to Milwaukee on Friday for a speaking engagement at the Milwaukee Police Association, marking his second visit to Wisconsin this month. Vance's campaign is expected to focus on criticizing Vice President Kamala Harris's handling of crime and border security, amidst a competitive race highlighted by a recent Marquette University Law School Poll showing both candidates nearly tied. His earlier visit to Eau Claire coincided with a rally held by Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, indicating the heightened political activity in the state. Vance's remarks come as Democratic enthusiasm appears to be rising in the wake of President Biden's withdrawal from the race. The event will start at 11 a.m. Central Time, coinciding with significant campaign efforts from both parties as they vie for voter support in Wisconsin, a key battleground state.
