Vice Presidential candidate Kamala Harris visits Orlando for early voting rally
ORLANDO, Fla. - Joe Biden's running mate Kamala Harris spoke in Orlando on Monday, urging voters to support the Biden-Harris campaign on the first day of in-person early voting in the state.
Harris arrived in Orlando shortly after 11 a.m. and spoke at an early voting drive-in rally at 11:15 a.m. She will head to Jacksonville after her visit to Orlando.
During his visit to Orlando, Harris was energized as she bounded onto the outdoor stage in Orlando, dancing and shouting greetings to the crowd as they honked their horns in support. She largely stuck to the campaign message of outlining how President Trump has tackled the COVID-19 pandemic and urging people to cast their ballots early.
Harris halted travel Thursday after her communications director and a member of the flight crew for her travel tested positive for the virus. The campaign said Harris did not need to quarantine under Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines, but she paused travel for four days. She has repeatedly tested negative for the virus.
