Biden traveling to red districts to shore up support for Harris and cement his legacy

President Joe Biden is looking to cement his succession by traveling to red districts to boost support for Vice President Kamala Harris .

Though the Democrats' chances improved drastically following Biden's exit from the ticket, Harris taking the stage could also cost the party support among some crucial demographics, including white and elderly voters. The president is looking to rally these groups to Harris in campaign stops in traditionally red districts.

"The schedule will be robust, and he plans to leave it all on the field," White House Communications Director Ben LaBolt told NBC News.

Biden's latest trip is to Westby in Vernon County, Wisconsin, on Thursday. In Wisconsin's 3rd Congressional District, where Westby is located, former President Donald Trump narrowly won in 2016 and won it again in 2020 with slightly increased margins.

Biden's trips to Republican-leaning districts will escalate to trips to red states, multiple Biden advisers said. He will focus on how he believes his and Harris's agenda will benefit those who voted for Trump before.

His maneuvers are conducted in close coordination with Harris. Biden's team aims to act "surgically" and make appearances that are "strategically impactful."

The biggest targets of the visits will be the elderly and blue-collar voters.

"We can help strengthen the argument, fortify the argument for her in the way that we did as vice president to President Obama, and the same way Vice President Harris helped us to win in 2020," a senior Biden adviser said.

At the White House on Tuesday, Biden said that in the weeks ahead, he would "talk with Americans all across the country about the progress we're seeing in their communities."
