Watch Live: Harris, Walz speak at campaign rally in Arizona

Vice President Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D), are holding a campaign rally in Phoenix Friday — as momentum builds for the Democratic duo.

The event comes as polls show Harris closing the gap with former President Trump in the Grand Canyon State. The Hill/Decision Desk HQ polling index shows Harris trailing Trump by less than 3 percentage points — 45.7 percent to 47.9 percent respectively.

It also comes a day after the election handicapper Cook Political Report shifted its ratings for Arizona, Georgia and Nevada toward the Democratic nominee.

Before selecting Walz to join her ticket, Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) was a strong contender on the veepstakes shortlist.

The rally, part of the Harris-Walz tour of electoral battlegrounds, is scheduled to begin at 8 p.m. EDT.
