The campaign's vowing to keep up the momentum, saying the president and vice president will visit every major swing state in coming days.

The Trump campaign is targeting essentially the same areas, looking to flip those four states plus Arizona and hold off the Biden campaign North Carolina and Florida. This is AP News.
