Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump are striving to reach voters with fewer than 70 days left until the 2024 election.

Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, her running mate in the White House race, made a slew of appearances in key states over the Labor Day weekend, including Harris first campaign event with President Joe Biden since she took his place atop the Democratic ticket.

Trump and his vice presidential running mate, Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), have also hit the campaign trail hard and increased public appearances. A recent stop at Virginias Arlington National Cemetery caused controversy amid reports that Trumps staff clashed with a cemetery employee over his campaign taking photos. (Political activity is prohibited on the cemetery grounds.)

Trump told Fox News on Friday that he plans to vote no on a Florida measure that would expand abortion rights.

Though Trump said women need more time than six weeks to decide whether to have an abortion, he said hed vote against the measure because Democrats are radical.

\"So I think six weeks, you need more time than six weeks, Trump said. Ive disagreed with that right from the early primaries. At the same time, the Democrats are radical because the nine months is just a ridiculous situation where you can do an abortion in the ninth month.

Trump added falsely that some states allow children to be killed after theyre born.

Some of the states, like Minnesota and other states have it where you can execute the baby after birth, and all of that is unacceptable, so Ill be voting no for that reason.

The proposed amendment in Florida says, in part, \"No law shall prohibit, penalize, delay, or restrict abortion before viability or when necessary to protect the patients health.\"

Trump Says Hes Voting No On Florida Abortion Rights Measure

The proposed amendment in Florida says, in part, "No law shall prohibit, penalize, delay, or restrict abortion before viability or when necessary to protect the patients health."
