Harris and Lizzo praise Detroit — in contrast to Trump — ahead of an Atlanta rally with Usher

Vice President Kamala Harris has appeared with Lizzo in the signer’s hometown of Detroit, marking the beginning of in-person voting and lavishing the city with praise after Republican nominee Donald Trump recently disparaged it. Marking the first day of early voting in Michigan, Harris on Saturday called Detroit “a great American city” and said she wanted to work hard in the final weeks before Election Day to avoid regrets afterward. Harris was later heading to Atlanta for a rally with singer Usher. More than 1 million Michigan residents have already voted by mail in the Nov. 5 election. In Georgia, more than 1.2 million early votes have been cast.
