Tesla CEO Elon Musk will hit the campaign trail in Pennsylvania on former President Donald Trump‘s behalf this weekend.
The election between Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris is less than three weeks away. Trump and Harris have Pennsylvania and its 19 Electoral College votes pegged as the top prize among battleground states. The state has largely supported Democrats for president, including helping put President Joe Biden over the top in 2020.
However, Biden’s backyard isn’t a lock for Harris or Democrats generally. Trump’s path to victory in 2016 ran through the Keystone State, and it has been home to some of the most competitive Senate races in recent years, including Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA) trying to fend off challenger Dave McCormick this cycle.
“Tomorrow night through Monday, I will be giving a series of talks throughout Pennsylvania. If you’d like to attend one of my talks, there’s no attendance fee,” Musk wrote on his platform X. “You just need to have signed our petition supporting free speech & right to bear arms & have voted in this election.”
