KALAMAZOO, Mich. — Vice President Kamala Harris continued her push to gain voters in Michigan with a stop in Kalamazoo on Saturday.
"I know you want to say Kamala-Zoo,” Harris laughed to a loud audience.
The democratic nominee spoke to thousands at the Wings Event Center 10 days before election day.
Leaders like Lieutenant Governor Garlin Gilchrist and U.S. Senator Gary Peters also made appearances in an attempt to motivate voters.
"I want you to say loud and clear, the people of Michigan are ready to vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz,” said Gilchrist.
"Now is the time for us to do what Michiganders do best. We pound the pavement, we talk to our friends and our family, and we do not take a single vote for granted, and we hustle every day, and when we hustle every day, we will elect Kamala Harris as the next President of the United States,” said Peters.
But the highly anticipated guest was former first lady Michelle Obama, who made her first and potentially only appearance at a Harris rally this year.
"Michigan, let's give Kamala everything we've got. Can we get this done? Can we get this done? Michigan? "Obama asked the crowd at the arena.
She spoke heavily on the fight for reproductive rights, even at one point focusing her speech towards male voters about why their support is important.
"Your wife or mother could be the ones at higher risk of dying from undiagnosed cervical cancer because they have no access to regular gynecological care your daughter could be the one too terrified to call the doctor if she's bleeding during an unexpected pregnancy. Your niece could be the one miscarrying in her bathtub after the hospital turned her away,” said Obama.
Harris also spoke about that topic, along with why her economic plans will help voters more than her opponent Former President Donald Trump.
"My common sense plan is about lowering the prices you pay on everything from prescription medication to groceries to housing. On the other hand, Donald Trump will raise costs on the families of America. In fact, independent economists, independent economists have analyzed our plans and found that mine will cut your costs and strengthen our economy, while his will increase inflation and lead to a recession by the middle of next year,” said Harris.
