Michigan is emerging as a crucial state for Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election, with both parties seeing the race as deadlocked. Michigan is the state where both Harris and former President Donald Trump have spent the most money on television advertising. Losing Michigan's 15 electoral votes could cost Harris the presidency even if she holds onto Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Democrats are banking on big suburbs and college-educated women to secure victory, while Republicans are optimistic due to Trump's attacks on Harris over electric vehicles and his gains with Black voters and the Arab American population.
