The claim that Karl Rove campaigned for Kamala Harris in Pennsylvania in October 2024 is false. The video circulating online shows Rove speaking at an event in California in February, not in Pennsylvania in October. Rove has been critical of both Donald Trump and Harris, stating that he is not campaigning for Harris and that his comments were made before the social media claims were made. Rove has criticized Trump as “graceless and divisive” and has also stated that Harris is “not a great candidate” and is facing a lack of enthusiasm among Black and Latino voters. USA TODAY has debunked various claims surrounding the Harris campaign, including false assertions about endorsements and ads. Rove has not been in Pennsylvania since September and therefore could not have rallied for Harris in the state on the date referenced in the post. AFP and Lead Stories have also debunked the claim. Overall, the claim that Karl Rove campaigned for Kamala Harris in Pennsylvania in October 2024 is not true, as the video circulating online is from a different event in California.
