Elizabeth Warren campaigns for Kamala Harris in Ozaukee County, home of recent Democratic gains

GRAFTON – Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren took Vice President Kamala Harris' presidential campaign to the northern suburbs of Milwaukee on Monday, an area where Democrats have gained ground in recent elections.

About 80 people crowded into the Ozaukee County Democratic Party's small headquarters in sweltering heat Monday to hear Warren's remarks on Harris' planned policies to lower costs and help the middle class and lower costs.

Ozaukee County, a traditionally conservative voting area, has been shifting in a Democratic direction faster than any other Wisconsin county since 2018, the county's party chair Deb Dassow said, citing research from Marquette University Law School poll director Charles Franklin.

Warren touted Harris' pledge to impose a federal ban on price gouging on groceries, enacting a new child tax credit for families with newborn children and offering first-time home buyers help with down payments.
