ASHEVILLE, North Carolina - US Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris made a push to woo moderates in her rival's camp in three swing states on Oct 21.
Meanwhile, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump slammed the government's response to Hurricane Helene as he toured the devastated state of North Carolina.
With just over two weeks until election day, the two candidates are on a blitz through the battlegrounds that will decide the outcome in a race that polls say is too close to call.
On Oct 21, Ms Harris appeared in Pennsylvania alongside Ms Liz Cheney - a prominent Republican - who called on undecided voters "to reject the kind of vile vitriol that we've seen from Donald Trump".
Trump toured storm-damaged Asheville and repeated conspiracy theories about the government's disaster response.
Later, at a rally in Greenville, he hammered home his campaign message that immigrants were "looting, ransacking, raping and pillaging" the country.
On Oct 21 alone, Ms Harris had events scheduled in Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin - Rust Belt states that were in Trump's column in 2016 but crucial to US President Joe Biden's victory four years later.
Ms Cheney and her former vice-president father Dick were once considered fixtures in the Republican firmament, but have been ostracised since it was taken over by Trump.
