Kamala Harris held Phoenix rally on Halloween as Election Day nears | 2024 Election

With less than five days to go until Election Day, Vice President Kamala Harris campaigned in Phoenix on Halloween.

Harris hosted a "When We Vote We Win" rally on Oct. 31 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Talking Stick Resort Amphitheater. The event could very well be Harris' final visit to Arizona before the election, and marked a final chance to reach undecided voters and encourage people to head to the polls.

Harris' closing remarks on her campaign include a continued push for lower costs for families and small businesses, and a push to end gun violence through stricter gun laws.

One of the policies mentioned the most by attendees, along with VP Harris herself, was the right for women to make their own choices for their reproductive health.

"One does not have to abandon their faith or deeply-held beliefs to agree the government shouldn't be telling her what to do," VP Harris said.

"I'm here to support my daughters' future," said supporter Amy Edrington. "I have four daughters and one son, and I'm here for my children and their future."

There were also critiques of what the country would look like under another Donald Trump presidency, but the larger focus was on what a Harris-Walz administration would offer the American people, including an effort to reach across the aisle during policymaking decisions.

"I pledge to you to listen to experts, to listen to those who are impacted by the decisions I make, and I pledge to listen to people who disagree with me, and unlike Donald Trump, I don't believe that people who disagree with me are the enemy. He wants to put them in jail - I'll give them a seat at the table," the Vice President said.

Many of the attendees we spoke with say they still feel energized, even as much of the country is feeling election fatigue or anxiety. 

While a lot of people have election fatigue from the robocalls and all of the signs we're seeing around the Valley, the people at the Talking Stick Resort Amphitheater say they are energized and ready to bring the vote home for Kamala Harris in just five days.

"It looks like it’s a close race, but the thing that sets it apart for me is the choice could not be clearer between Kamala and Donald Trump. Between good and evil," supporter Laurie True said. "We have to protect women's right to choose, the environment and our own democracy is at stake."

Brian Claudio brought his infant with him, saying it's never too early to teach children what's important.

"Bring back women's rights and basically helping out the community," Claudio said.

Harris' speech included a critique of Trump's economic plan, which she says will hurt the middle class – a message that resonated with Dashawn Williams.

"If you’re not rich, and you’re not poor, you’re in the middle. So, right now she’s standing up for the people in the middle," Williams said.

Amid the barrage of attack ads and social media arguments, Williams says the country is in critical need of unity rather than division. Unity, he says, will come with Harris as president.

"We all need to come together united 'cause divided we fall. United we stand. We have each other to fall upon and love each other," he said. "We don’t have the love anymore. We’re all divided, but if we come together as one unit, we can all change the world."

After campaigning in Phoenix, Harris traveled to Nevada where she spoke at events in Reno and Las Vegas.

Also on Halloween, former President Donald Trump was in Arizona where he joined the Tucker Carlson Live Tour for a hurricane relief benefit at Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale.
