New York magazine reported Friday that James would campaign with Clinton on Sunday. The two have reportedly never met, but James endorsed Clinton for president in an op-ed in the Akron Beacon-Journal last month.

Ohio is a crucial state in the election, with 18 electoral votes up for grabs. The latest projections from ESPN’s FiveThirtyEight have Donald Trump as the favorite to win the state.
