Washington, DC – Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris made her final appeal to the nation before the November 5 election day. The event took place at the Ellipse, a park near the White House in Washington, DC. Just four years earlier, on January 6, 2021, the Ellipse was the site of a speech by Harris’s Republican rival, then-President Donald Trump. He spread false claims of election fraud, inciting his supporters to attack the US Capitol. Harris reassured the crowd that she would bring unity and stability to the White House if elected. With only seven days until Election Day, polls show a tight race between Harris and Trump. Supporters at the rally expressed optimism and excitement for Harris to become the first woman president. Harris outlined her policy proposals, focusing on economic policies for the middle class and protection of healthcare and abortion rights. She emphasized the importance of unity and condemned Trump’s divisive rhetoric. Despite some concerns about her stance on certain issues, supporters expressed their fear of a second Trump presidency and their hope for a better future under Harris’s leadership. Harris concluded her speech with a promise to listen to all Americans and work towards unity and compromise.
