Popular Democrats, such as former President Barack Obama, and well-known Republicans have been called in to campaign alongside candidates in key states.
– The reason why I am here is simple. I’m here to ask you to vote, said Barack Obama at a campaign meeting in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, when TV4 Nyheterna was there.
That it is Barack Obama who travels from state to state to meet voters is not surprising. President Biden’s popularity among voters is very low and it is clear that Democratic candidates prefer not to answer questions about the president.
– If someone is not very popular, it does not help if he participates and gives his support, says Nancy Locante, a Democratic voter who came to see Barack Obama speak in Wisconsin.
