Obama to stump for Biden in Philadelphia
By Amie Parnes - 10/16/20 12:06 PM EDT
Former President Barack Obama will stump for Democratic nominee Joe Biden in Philadelphia on Wednesday, Democratic sources familiar with the plans tell The Hill.
Earlier this week, Democratic sources revealed that Obama would hit the road for Biden in the final weeks, thrilling Democrats who have long anticipated their strongest surrogate on the road.
Obama also traveled to Philadelphia to deliver his speech at the Democratic National Convention, where he spoke live from the Museum of the American Revolution. He was Biden's only top surrogate to deliver a speech at a remote location because of the COVID-19 pandemic, which kept Biden and others off the road.
