Biden will travel to Virginia and New Jersey to campaign with former Gov. Terry McAuliffe and Gov. Phil Murphy in their respective states.
First lady Jill Biden is hitting the campaign trail Friday, hoping to help deliver victories for Democrats in two gubernatorial elections.
"We're gonna win this again and make history again with this," McAuliffe told reporters Thursday. "I am the first candidate for office of either party in 80 years to win every single city and county . … Why? I think a.) people were happy with my job as governor before and b.) because I have a real agenda."
Obama will hold back-to-back events in the states on Oct. 23, 10 days before Election Day and coinciding with the first day of in-person early voting in New Jersey's history.Georgia heavy-hitters Stacey Abrams and Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, who were both on the president's shortlist for vice president, are also headed to Virginia on Sunday to campaign for McAuliffe.
"We are facing a lot of headwinds from Washington, as you know. The president is unpopular today unfortunately here in Virginia, so we have got to plow through," McAuliffe said during a virtual rally last week. He's also said he's frustrated that Congress still hasn't passed the infrastructure package, saying the "inaction on Capitol Hill … is so damaging.
