The Harris campaign on Sunday will fan out across battleground states to mark Souls to the Polls, a push centered on reaching Black voters through their churches and religious communities.
Vice President Harris will attend services and deliver remarks at New Birth Missionary Baptist Church in Stonecrest, Ga. She will also attend an event at Divine Faith Ministries International in Jonesboro, Ga.
The campaign will also lean on some celebrity star power, with Steve Wonder speaking and performing at Divine Faith Ministries ahead of Harris’s arrival, the campaign said. Wonder performed at the Democratic National Convention in August.
Harris later Sunday will sit for an interview with Rev. Al Sharpton that will air on MSNBC.
Her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D), will attend servies at Victorious Believers Ministries in Saginaw, Mich.
The Harris campaign said Congressional Black Caucus members will also campaign for the vice president and attend Souls to the Polls events.
The Souls to the Polls push comes with early voting underway in key battleground states like Georgia, North Carolina, Nevada and Arizona.
The Harris campaign is hoping to turn out Black voters and persuade those still on the fence ahead of November’s election against former President Trump.
A New York Times/Siena College poll published earlier this month found 78 percent of Black voters said they would back Harris in the election, compared to 15 percent who said they would support Trump.
That 63 percentage point gap in support would mark a decrease from 2020, when President Biden won 90 percent of Black voters compared to 9 percent who voted for Trump.
