With 18 days until Election Day, the presidential candidates and their surrogates are hitting battleground states that have begun early voting, as well as sitting down for interviews with targeted audiences.

Barack and Michelle Obama will join Kamala Harris on the trail at get-out-the-vote events for the Democratic presidential candidate in swing states Georgia and Michigan next week, a senior campaign official said.

In Michigan, the former first lady will campaign for the first time with VP Kamala Harris, urging voters to cast ballots.
