53% : Meanwhile, Trump, donned an apron at a McDonald's fast-food restaurant in Pennsylvania to work in the French fries part of the kitchen and handed orders to customers in the drive-through lane.
49% : Later in the day, Trump scheduled a town hall gathering with voters in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
40% : After his brief stint at the restaurant, Trump boasted that he'd "now worked for 15 minutes" longer than Harris had.
32% : She told of her childhood experiences in a Black church, drawing a sharp contrast to the harsh and divisive rhetoric of the current political climate, although she did not mention Trump by name.
30% : Harris has said she worked for spending money at a McDonald's in California during her college days, but Trump has said he doesn't believe her, although a friend of Harris' told The New York Times that she recalled Harris working there.
25% : As a result, both Harris and Trump, and their respective vice-presidential running mates, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Ohio Senator JD Vance, are making few campaign stops in any place but the seven key states, a travel schedule that is likely to hold through the last two weeks of the campaign.
