    The Harris campaign has made a concerted effort this cycle to target disillusioned Republican voters, and her strategy going into the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Chicago this week appears to be the same.

    Several Republicans are scheduled to speak on the mainstage of the DNC this week — from high-profile figures who served in the Trump administration to lesser-known former Trump voters.

    “We will be putting patriotic Republicans front and center in our convention programming to explain, in their own words, why they are putting country first and supporting Vice President Harris,” Austin Weatherford, the Harris campaign’s director of Republican engagement, said in a statement ahead of the convention.

    Here are the Republican speakers who have either spoken already at the convention or confirmed they will speak on Thursday. (The DNC has not released the speaker schedule for the rest of the week.)

    Monday

    Rich Logis (video), former Trump voter and “full-fledged member of MAGA”

    Tuesday

    Kyle Sweetser , former Alabama Trump voter

    Stephanie Grisham, former Trump White House press secretary

    John Giles , Republican mayor of Mesa, Arizona

    Wednesday

    Olivia Troye , former homeland security aide to former Vice President Mike Pence

    Geoff Duncan , former Georgia Lt. Gov.

    Thursday

    Adam Kinzinger , former House Republican from Illinois
