Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden could make the same mistake as the 2016 party’s nominee, Hillary Clinton, by not attending the battlefield state of Wisconsin, former Gov. Scott Walker told the Daily Briefing on Thursday.
“Joe Biden has not been to Wisconsin once during his presidential campaign in the last two years,” said Walker host Dana Perino, to which she replied, “Hey, not Hillary either.”

“Just, now that was a big mistake on her part, she took it for granted,” Walker said. “You saw it with the convention. Even if he spoke to an empty convention center like he did in Delaware, he would have said it at least in Wisconsin, where it really matters.”

Clinton famously did not even visit Wisconsin during the 2016 general election campaign, for which she was criticized after Trump became the first Republican to win the Badger State since 1984 on his way to his surprise election victory.

During a visit to the state last week, Vice President Mike Pence said, “I heard on the way here that Joe Biden has not been to Wisconsin in 659 days.”
The Biden campaign responded to Pence’s attempt by saying that the Trump administration “failed Wisconsin” was its response to the coronavirus pandemic.
