Gaga aside, Harrison Ford also made a rare endorsement
Meanwhile, in addition to Gaga, Harrison Ford made a rare endorsement for Harris. The 82-year-old actor stated, "I'm telling people I've never met who I'm voting for and why I think they might do the same. This election, I'm casting my ballot for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. Do I agree with every one of their policies? Of course not. Do I think they're perfect? C'mon, for crying out loud, they're people just like you and me."
Pennsylvania holds the key to Harris's presidential bid
The Pennsylvania rallies are among a series of campaign events planned in swing states such as Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, and Wisconsin. According to a New York Times/Siena poll and a Morning Consult poll released on Sunday, Harris and Donald Trump are currently tied in Pennsylvania, with each candidate getting 48% support from likely voters. Earlier polls had shown Trump leading by one point in the state.
