Vice President Kamala Harris has set her sights on Pittsburgh again as a strategic stage for debate preparations. According to WPXI, Harris is scheduled to arrive in Pittsburgh this Thursday, marking her 10th visit to the city. She will stay until the presidential debate on Tuesday night.

With her recent Labor Day stint alongside President Biden still echoing through the city's labor communities, Harris returns mere days after they shared the campaign trail spotlight. However, her campaign schedule isn't just debate prep and rallies. CBS News Pittsburgh reports that following the upcoming face-off with former President Donald Trump, Harris, along with Biden, will honor the memory of those lost at the Flight 93 National Memorial on Wednesday.

With no further details about her Pittsburgh stay, the Vice President's moves remain a matter of anticipation for supporters and analysts. Meanwhile, former President Trump has been courting Pennsylvania himself, with a recent rally in Johnstown and a televised town hall. As Harris shores up her strategies, the political battleground of Pennsylvania couldn't be more palpably charged.
