Vice PresidentĀ Kamala Harrisā€™ campaign on Sunday is launching ā€œRepublicans for Harrisā€ as she looks to win over Republican voters put off byĀ Donald Trumpā€™s candidacy.

The program will be a ā€œcampaign within a campaign,ā€ according to Harrisā€™ team, using well-known Republicans to activate their networks, with a particular emphasis on primary voters who backed former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley. The program will kick off with events this week in Arizona, North Carolina and Pennsylvania. Republicans backing Harris will also appear at rallies with the vice president and her soon-to-be-named running mate this coming week, the campaign said.

The Harris campaign shared the details of the program first with The Associated Press before the official announcement.
