With just 48 hours left in the race for the White House, Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump begin campaigning on the Sunday before Election Day on November 5th.

Opinion polls show a tight race between Harris and Trump in Michigan and other battleground states including Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

More than 75 million people have already voted through in-person early voting and absentee voting as of Saturday, according to the University of Florida's Election Lab.

After campaigning in North Carolina on Saturday, Harris made an unexpected trip to New York to appear on NBC's “Saturday Night Live.”

“It was fun,” she told reporters on the tarmac before flying to Michigan for another round of rallies ahead of Election Day.

On Sunday, the vice president will attend and give a speech at a service at a black church in Detroit, visit a local hair salon in Pontiac and hold a rally at Michigan State University in East Lansing.

Trump is expected to hold rallies in Lititz, Pennsylvania, Kinston, North Carolina and Macon, Georgia.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Harris' Vice President and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff return to metro Atlanta on Sunday for a series of “Get Out The Vote” events, including a rally with musical performances by Jon Bon Jovi, The War and Treaty and Michael Stipe. According to the campaign, Walz will travel to Gastonia, North Carolina later this evening.

On Monday, Harris will wrap up the Pennsylvania campaign with rallies in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, followed by a concert in Allentown with rapper Fat Joe and a performance by Frankie Negron, both of whom have Puerto Rican roots. Campaign officials say the rally aims to mobilize the Latino community in the Keystone State to get out and vote.

The governor and his wife, Gwen Walz, will campaign in Wisconsin and Michigan on Monday and visit Pennsylvania on Tuesday before heading to Washington, DC

On November 5, the Harris-Walz campaign confirmed that it would host its election night event at Howard University in Washington, DC, Harris' alma mater.

According to the Palm Beach Post, part of the USA TODAY Florida network, Trump's campaign will host an election night party at a convention center in West Palm Beach, Florida, but has not revealed the former president's election night plans.

In 2020, Trump declared himself the winner in the early morning hours after Election Day, three days before the first television networks called for it. Ultimately, he lost to his Democratic opponent Joe Biden. He never accepted the result and continues to falsely claim that it was stolen from him through widespread fraud.
