The Obamas will hit the campaign trail with Vice President Kamala Harris, the 2024 Democratic nominee, in the homestretch of the 2024 election cycle, ending in Election Day, Nov. 5.

Most of the latest national polls show Harris and former President Donald Trump, the GOP presidential nominee, in a dead heat.

Former first lady Michelle Obama is scheduled to campaign with Harris in Michigan on Saturday, Oct. 26, which will be their first joint appearance.
