VP nominee JD Vance will make Georgia appearance for the Trump campaign. See when, where.
Ohio Sen. JD Vance, the Republican nominee for vice president, plans to visit Macon Thursday.
Vance’s visit will come just over a week after his counterpart, vice president nominee Tim Walz, visited Macon. Former President Donald Trump’s campaign said Vance would deliver remarks on the economy, and criticized President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris’ approach toward economic issues.
“As a result of the disastrous policies of the Kamala Harris and Joe Biden administration, Georgians are struggling to support their families,” the Trump campaign said in an announcement about Vance’s visit. “With inflation over 21%, Georgia families are spending an average of over $1000 more a month on basic goods like gas and groceries and have lost $28,502 on average due to Kamala’s economic policies.”
During Walz’s visit, he stressed the campaigns’ differing stances on abortion and discussed reporting from ProPublica that indicated two Georgia women have died because they couldn’t legally access abortion care.
Vance is expected to make his speech at the Edgar H. Wilson Convention Center at 1 p.m. Thursday. Those wanting to attend can register for general admission tickets online.
