With the presidential election only a week away, Democratic Vice Presidential nominee Kamala Harris campaigned at a handful of drive-in events in Metro Detroit Sunday.
Harris barnstormed from Detroit’s suburbs to the city itself, saying the stakes are too high in this election for voters to just stay home, as some Democrats here did in 2016.
At a church in Southfield, on a day when the White House chief of staff said Covid-19 is too contagious to be controlled, Harris said health care workers, in particular, must make a stand.
“People who reject the notion that we cannot control this virus. People who know in a moment of crisis…real leaders step up.”
About 100-thousand people have already voted early in Detroit.
The president won Michigan in 2016 by fewer than 11-thousand votes.
