President Joe Biden and former President Barack Obama are fanning out across two key battleground states on Friday, stumping for fellow Democrats with control of the U.S. Senate a toss-up in Nov. 8’s midterm elections.
Biden will appear at a Pennsylvania Democratic Party dinner, where Senate hopeful John Fetterman will be in attendance. Fetterman’s race vs. celebrity surgeon Mehmet Oz is among a handful of contests that will decide control of the Senate, and current polling shows the two men virtually tied. Vice President Kamala Harris will also appear at the dinner.
Schumer had a different take on Georgia, saying: “The state where we’re going downhill is Georgia. It’s hard to believe that they will go for Herschel Walker.” Walker, a former football star, is facing incumbent Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock in another of this year’s closest races. “He’s looking forward to this visit very much. Georgia played a determinative role last cycle and could likely be in the same position two years later,” Obama adviser Eric Schultz said ahead of the event, according to NBC News. “The goal is to get out the vote, mobilize people, given the stakes of this year’s elections.”
Republican campaigns have seized on raging inflation, including elevated prices for gasoline RB00, -0.58% and other fuels, while Democrats have focused on issues such as abortion rights.
