Biden travels to rally the Democrats
-
President Joe Biden, stumping for Democrats ahead of Tuesday’s midterm balloting, may stop in Chicago — likely Friday — to lead a get-out-the vote rally for Gov. J.B. Pritzker and the rest of the Democratic ticket in Illinois.
A source said White House advance personnel and members of the Secret Service were on the ground in Chicago preparing for a possible presidential visit.
Biden was in Florida on Tuesday campaigning for Democratic governor candidate Charlie Crist and Rep. Val Demings, D-Fl., who is running for the Senate.
At a reception for Crist, Biden said of the upcoming vote, “This is a genuine inflection point in American history.How we decide the next four years is going to determine what this country looks like 40 years from now.”
On Thursday, Biden travels to Albuquerque, New Mexico. And on election eve Biden goes to Columbia, Maryland, for a Democratic National Committee get-out-the-vote rally.

You wouldn't think that would be necessary. And stopping in Florida is pointless. Crist doesn't have a prayer and I doubt Demming does.

That’s the point. They are sending him to areas that are either in the bag or hopelessly out of reach. Places that he can’t really impact or hurt them.
The problem is that even in these places he’s still talking and giving the opponents fodder in the competitive states…

LOL. Yup. If I were a Democrat, I would not want President Biden coming to "support" me.
Kind of like that English saying - "If I have a friend like you, I don't need an enemy"
