Former President Donald Trump returns to Georgia on Saturday, a state both Republicans and Democrats see as a critical battleground for the upcoming election, to campaign alongside Ohio Sen. JD Vance. This follows Vice President Kamala Harris' rally days earlier at Georgia State University.

Harris, who was greeted by a cheering crowd, stated that the momentum in the race is shifting in Democrats' favor. Post her rally, Trump's campaign accused Harris of exacerbating economic issues such as inflation and high gas prices while linking her to violent crimes in the state.

The focus on Georgia highlights its renewed significance as both parties vie for the state's diverse and expanding electorate. With Trump's return to campaign in the state's largest media market and Harris planning multiple visits, Georgia has become a key arena in the race for the White House.
