WASHINGTON—Vice President Kamala Harris made her campaign’s closing argument in a speech at the Ellipse in the nation’s capital on Oct. 29, positing that she is a better candidate for the presidency than former President Donald Trump while promising to seek common ground on challenges.
Tens of thousands of people attended the rally located at a symbolic site—it has a direct view of the White House, and it’s the place where Trump delivered his speech on Jan. 6, 2021, that preceded the Capitol breach.
