MVP Harris will do a rally in Houston Texas on Friday and Walz will be in Louisville this week . Not sure what to make of this. I will take it as a sign of confidence and trust their campaign strategy of diminishing returns.

besides fundraising with Beshear, there is a ballot initiative in KY about school choice/funding. Perhaps Walz wiill talk about education and Trump wanting to abolish the Dept. of Education and Head Start. The other remote possibility is the Indiana governor’s race which could be close. I still think they have to run their own race so education theme or fundraising would be my guess
Maybe Walz is getting a fundraiser in at the same time? I saw an article this week about him hitting a fundraiser in Boston this past Sunday, so he's still fundraising even this late in the game.
Obviously too late and no actual reason to, but I think it would be hilarious if they just trolled Trump and had Walz drop out to be replaced with Beshear. His head might actually explode.

Houston I get, but Louisville?
Yeah, that makes me wonder if they're seeing some weird polling numbers out of Kentucky
I struggle to think what those would even be. There’s no house race or Senate race of note
Same, but I can't think of any other logical reason for the visit.
Granted, if Kentucky were close that means the wheels fell off for Trump and we're looking at a landslide.
I sure as hell hope it doesn't mean they're seeing indications of the House race there being close, because that seems like it would be a bad sign.

Maybe it's to help Brown in Ohio??? But yeah, seems like an odd choice...
Dump could do Live boy, dead girl and still win Kentucky.

Gotta be a fundraiser
Do we still need fundraisers at this stage?
Looking at Harris' burnrate from the September fundraising, I think the answer is definitely yes. Harris is running a labor heavy, expensive campaign
It's incredible that she'd need more funds after raising over $1,000,000,000!
Mystified why Louisville but I'll bet Hadley Duvall gets some time on stage.

Is the Houston rally just to help Allred?
On a related note, I got a fundraising text from Ted Cruz the other day.
Probably
I think Texas is a good place to make a point about abortion.
Paywalled but maybe a fundraiser?
This is not the move a desperate campaign would make(also Walz in Kentucky; as pointed out, probably fundraising as well)
Could be. This brief mentions something else, though: https://politicalwire.com/2024/10/22/harris-to-hold-campaign-rally-in-texas/
