With just a few days until the election, Joe Biden, with the help of Barack Obama, bet on Michigan on Saturday. They spoke at election rallies in the cities of Flint and Detroit.
– It made me a better president. He has the character and the experience to make us a better country, Obama said of his former vice president.
– Joe Biden is my brother. I love Joe Biden and he will be a great president, he said.
“No one came to your party?”
Obama also attacked Donald Trump’s handling of the pandemic and mocked him for talking so much about audience size at his election rallies.
– Nobody attended your birthday party when you were a kid? Was he traumatized? That’s not something to worry about when the country goes through a pandemic, Obama said.
Obama is considered Biden’s greatest asset in the election campaign. The former president continues the campaign in Florida and Georgia on Monday.
Trump talks about electoral fraud
Donald Trump also came out and met with voters on Saturday. He traveled through Pennsylvania, another key state, where he focuses on his “base,” that is, white working-class men.
He warned of alleged electoral fraud and singled out Philadelphia, the large city whose African-American residents can determine Biden’s fate in Pennsylvania.
– They say you have to be very, very careful. What is happening in Philadelphia, everyone should be vigilant, said the president at an election rally in Bucks County.
Biden leads in key states
Michigan is one of the states in the “rust belt,” that is, states where many industries have collapsed, where Donald Trump surprisingly won in 2016. Now Biden is betting on taking Michigan back for the Democrats.
According to the new CNN poll, Biden is leading big in Michigan. He gets 53 percent against Trump’s 41 percent. Also in Wisconsin, another rust belt state, Biden leads 52 percent to Trump’s 44 percent, according to the CNN poll.
Further south in Arizona, Biden gets 50 percent and Trump 46 percent, while the figures in North Carolina are 51 percent and 45 percent, respectively, according to the survey. The figures in the two southern states are within the margin of error, writes CNN.
Biden now leads in these four states that Trump won in 2016.
He rejects rumors during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania.
