DURHAM, NC—In the final push before Election Day, Bull City Citizen reports that First Lady Jill Biden made a high-energy campaign stop in central North Carolina on Monday, visiting both Durham and Carrboro to rally support for the Harris-Walz ticket. Her visit underscored the urgency and pivotal stakes of the 2024 presidential race.
In downtown Durham, Biden met with campaign volunteers at a field office, delivering an impassioned call to action. “One day, we have to work harder than before,” she urged, emphasizing the critical need for every supporter to give their all in these final hours. “We have to go further than we have pushed in the past.”
The First Lady also stressed the importance of defending reproductive rights and fostering opportunities for progress in North Carolina, framing the election as a choice between “hope over hate, freedom over fear, unity over division.” Reflecting on the past four years, she posed the question, “Are we better today than four years ago? Yes,” drawing cheers from the crowd.
Biden expressed heartfelt gratitude to the volunteers and community members who have supported her and President Joe Biden during their time in the White House. “With determination, persistence, and urgency, we will elect a new generation of leaders,” she declared.
Earlier in the day, the First Lady also visited Carrboro, where she launched the Women for Harris phone bank, further mobilizing grassroots efforts. As Election Day looms, Bull City Citizen will continue to cover these key campaign moments and the impact on North Carolina voters.
