It’s the home stretch for the race to the White House, and both campaigns are making their case in New Hampshire.
The candidates — former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris — have rallied across the country, including in parts of New England, to rouse support from voters.
So what about New Hampshire?
There are four electoral votes up for grabs in the state in November, and it’s considered a battleground state in major elections, typically drawing the most visits from political hopefuls of any New England state.
Here’s a look at how each ticket has campaigned in New Hampshire so far.
How many Trump/Vance campaign rallies have there been in New Hampshire?
Former President Donald Trump held several campaign events in New Hampshire leading up to the state’s presidential primary in January, including rallies in Rochester, Portsmouth, Concord, Atkinson and Manchester.
Trump hasn’t held any rallies in the state since January and since becoming the official GOP nominee. His running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance, has not visited the state since joining Trump’s ticket, although he also visited the state ahead of the January primary. He campaigned for Trump in Kingston on Jan. 19.
In response to recent assertions that New Hampshire is not a battleground state anymore for Republicans, the Trump campaign has pushed back. According to reporting by The Boston Globe, Trump told a local radio station he will be visiting New Hampshire before the election.
How many Harris/Walz campaign rallies have there been in New Hampshire?
Vice President Kamala Harris was in New Hampshire earlier this month, hosting a rally in North Hampton. It was her first appearance in the state since becoming the Democratic nominee.
Her husband, Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff, spoke at a campaign rally in Concord in July.
Harris’ running mate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz hasn’t made any campaign stops in the Granite State so far. His wife, Gwen Walz, is set to visit New Hampshire on Thursday for two campaign events.
Walz was scheduled to campaign for Harris in New Hampshire early last month before being named her VP pick, but canceled the appearance due to scheduling.
