Harris spoke before tens of thousands of supporters on The Ellipse in Washington, on one side of the National Mall and with the White House in the background, with one week left before the November 5 elections in which she will face the former president.
“Freedom or Chaos”
“This election is more than just an election between two parties and two candidates. “It is a choice between a country based on freedom for all Americans or one governed by chaos and division,” he noted. Harris. “In a week you will have the opportunity to make a decision that will directly affect your life, the life of your family and the future of this country that we love. And it will probably be the most important vote you will ever cast,” said the Democratic candidate in the South. of the fence of the White House, in La Elipse, the park where the traditional Christmas tree is placed.
Harris stressed that his rival is “someone totally absorbed by his infinite desire for revenge.” and that he is not interested “in the needs of the American people.” The one who could become the first black woman president of the United States emphasized between two different approaches to the country, remembering that Trump is focused on his “enemies list” and she is focused on her “to-do list.”
“In this very place, Trump sent an armed mob to overturn a free and fair election, an election that he lost. Americans died as a result of that attack,” Harris said, recalling that at that time the Republican magnate’s followers told him that the mob wanted to kill his vice president, Mike Pence, to which he responded with two words: “So what?”

And I am willing to offer that leadership as the next president of the United States,” said Harris, who distanced herself from her Republican rival by highlighting that she comes from the middle class while Trump He is, in his opinion, “a tycoon who wants to cut taxes for millionaires at the expense of American workers.”
Open-ended elections
When she entered the campaign following the withdrawal of President Joe Biden, the vice president stepped on the accelerator, allowing the party to lift spirits and take the lead in national polls, but as the weeks went by that advantage was reduced. Now they are even in the polls, with a technical tie in the seven pivotal or pendulum states that will decide the result of the electionsin which more than 50 million people have already voted in advance. Biden himself did so this Monday at a Delaware voting center.
The place chosen by Harris this Tuesday sought, on the one hand, to provide the Democratic candidate with a solemn image by holding an event in front of the presidential residence during prime time. But also remember and condemn the assault on the Capitol on January 6, 2021 in which a crowd of Trump supporters tried unsuccessfully to stop the ratification of Biden’s electoral victory and block the transition of powers.
It was precisely in La Elipse park where, just before the attack, Trump gave a speech to his supporters in which he denounced electoral fraud without evidence and encouraged them to march towards the Capitol while Congress certified Biden’s victory, results that the Republican continues not to recognize to this day. Trump is charged in federal court in the District of Columbia for allegedly instigating the assaultin which four people died, and the speech he gave that day is one of the evidence that the Prosecutor’s Office uses against him.
