JD Vance speaks at campaign event in Peoria

PEORIA, Ariz. - Republican Vice Presidential nominee JD Vance was back in the Valley on Tuesday for another campaign event.

Vance spoke on Oct. 22 at TYR Tactical in Peoria.

It’s late in the game and a lot of people have already voted, but some haven’t. So now the strategy for both parties is the ground game – it's about motivating their base and making sure they actually show up on Election Day.

The people who make up the Republican base were excited to see their candidate for vice president in the flesh.

"He is so smart and so good," a voter said. "He’s the future for this Republican Party."

These voters know Vance’s talking points.

"That’s what Donald Trump and I are going to do. We’re going to make groceries more affordable, we’re going to make housing more affordable, we’re going to make the American dream more affordable," Vance said.

Many have already voted.

"I voted yesterday, and all the people that I know, that have the same likes and interests, they’ve all voted," a Vance supporter said.

"I have voted. I voted on the second day of early voting," another supporter said.

Many believe this election is the most important of their lifetime.

A supporter said, "If Trump doesn’t win, it’s over."

Still, there are some who haven't voted.

"I have not. I have my ballot at home. I’m going to be filling it out this weekend," a soon-to-be voter said.

There’s little research to suggest that events like this actually make a significant difference in voter turnout, but polling in swing states shows Trump and VP Kamala Harris within the margin of error.
