GOP Vice Presidential Nominee JD Vance To Campaign In Bucks

NEWTOWN TOWNSHIP, PA — Republican vice presidential nominee, Senator J.D. Vance, is scheduled to attend a campaign rally in Bucks County on Saturday, Sept. 28 at the Newtown Sports Training and Event Center at 120 Pheasant Road.

The rally is set to start at 5:15 p.m. with doors opening at 2:15 p.m. Members of the public who are interested in attending should click here to register.

With polls showing a neck-and-neck race for President in battleground Pennsylvania, expect a lot more attention between now and Election Day from the Presidential campaigns as they fight to win the Commonwealth's 19 electoral votes.

Last weekend the Harris-Walz campaign brought its message to the Lehigh Valley where former Minnesota Governor and Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz led a rally at Freedom High School in Bethlehem. This weekend, Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, will be campaigning in Arizona and Nevada after making a campaign stop in Pittsburgh on Wednesday.

Senator Vance will be coming to Newtown from a campaign stop in Georgia while former President Donald Trump stomps through the upper Midwest with campaign stops scheduled in Walker and Warren, Michigan, and Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin.
