Election 2024 live updates: Trump to rally in deep-red part of Wisconsin as new poll shows tighter race than expected in Florida and Texas

Months after Donald Trump and his eldest sons were found liable for civil fraud associated with a family business, the Trumps have sparked new concerns with a growing family venture — cryptocurrency.

The X accounts of Trump’s youngest daughter, Tiffany Trump, and Lara Trump, Eric’s wife who co-chairs the Republican National Committee, were hacked earlier this week, with posts directing users to fake links for the project, according to World Liberty Financial.

Donald Trump will rally supporters at 2pm ET in Mosinee, Wisconsin at Central Wisconsin Airport.

Meanwhile, Governor Tim Walz will speak at the Human Rights Campaign Annual National Dinner in Washington, DC.

Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff will speak at a team Harris-Walz Weekend of Action canvass launch in Allentown, Pennsylvania at 12.25pm ET before delivering remarks at a Latinos Con Harris-Walz campaign event at 1.45pm.

It is now less than two months until Vice President Kamala Harris will go head-to-head with Donald Trump as Americans cast their votes in the 2024 election, after she replaced President Joe Biden on the Democratic ticket in July.

Fresh polls suggest that Harris may be sweeping up elusive independent voters; though races in the swing states are still too close to call, with Harris and Trump neck and neck in Pennsylvania.

So how will Harris actually fare against Trump in November?

Kamala Harris brought in $361m in August, pulling further away from Donald Trump in the money game. The Harris campaign claimed it was the best grassroots fundraising month in history.

Harris almost tripled the $130m raised by the former president last month.

The vice president’s campaign and other linked committees have $404m in cash on hand compared to Trump’s nearly $300m.

Less than three months ago, a disastrous debate performance by President Joe Biden put Kamala Harris on a collision course with Donald Trump.

Now at the top of the Democratic ticket, Harris’s first public face-off with Trump on the ABC debate stage in Philadelphia is just days away. Right now, she is hunkered down in Pittsburgh for intensive preparations with a close circle of aides and confidantes who are getting her ready for her best — and perhaps only — chance to convince Americans that she, and not the former president, should spend the next four years in the White House.

According to NOTUS, the vice president will be participating in sessions led by Paul, Weiss partner Karen Dunn, the Washington super-lawyer who masterminded then-Senator Harris’s prep for her 2020 debate against her predecessor, Mike Pence. Harris will also reportedly be coached by her veteran policy adviser Rohini Kosoglu, as well as Democratic National Convention mastermind and longtime operative Minyon Moore; domestic policy aide Brian Nelson; campaign chief-of-staff Sheila Nix; veteran adviser Sean Clegg; and Cedric Richmond, the former Louisiana congressman who is a co-chair of her campaign.

The previously unidentified duo have been revealed as Donald Trump’s deputy campaign manager Justin Caporale and advance team member Michael Picard, according to NPR.

Caporale previously served as an aide to first lady Melania Trump. He left the White House to work for Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, before joining Trump’s 2024 campaign. He was also a project manager for the Jan. 6 rally where Trump urged the crowd to “stop the steal” before the riot at the Capitol, according to NPR.

Donald Trump will not be sentenced in his hush money case until after the presidential election in November, as the judge overseeing the criminal case against the former president moved his September 18 court date to avoid the appearance of political interference in the crucial weeks before Election Day.

New voter registrations surged among Black women and young people in Pennsylvania when Kamala Harris became the Democratic nominee for president, according to newly released data.

In the week that Joe Biden announced he would not run for re-election, new registrations increased by 262 percent among Black women under 30 compared to the same week in 2020.

Registrations among Black voters increased by 110 percent, and among voters under 30 years old by 59 percent, also compared to the same week in 2020.
