11. Why is Trump going to Virginia the Saturday before the election?

It's not always about the top of the ticket.

Harris is likely trying to solidify down ballot races, specifically the senate race since it appears unlikely Democrats will win Montana.

Trump is going to New York and Virginia for the same reason, but more focused on congressional races.

Both are also hoping to create buzz with large rallies in unconventional areas.

Some pundit said a few days ago that this might be the first election since 2000, maybe even before that, what both campaigns believe they truly will win.
