VP nominee Tim Walz will return to Wisconsin on Friday after first Harris-Trump debate

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, the Democratic nominee for vice president, will return to Wisconsin on Friday as part of the campaign's tour of swing states after the Tuesday debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump.

The Harris-Walz campaign has not yet said where Walz will be in Wisconsin, or what time. Walz is also expected to be in Michigan on Friday. The campaign said Harris, Walz and other surrogates will visit every media market in each battleground state Thursday through Sunday. Harris will visit North Carolina and Pennsylvania.

The campaign is billing the swing as the "New Way Forward" tour and will air a new ad with the same name in battleground states, including Wisconsin. The ad will focus on Harris' pitch for a federal ban on price gouging on food, capping the cost of prescription drugs, and ending the affordable housing shortage, the campaign said.

Walz's last stop to Wisconsin was on Labor Day, when he gave remarks at Milwaukee's Laborfest. Both campaigns have visited Wisconsin frequently in the run-up to Election Day, including Trump's rally in Mosinee over the weekend.
