Penscola, Fla. (AP) – President Donald Trump will go to the polls in his adopted home state of Florida on Saturday before rallying supporters in his other war-torn state. Joe Biden is drawing attention to the pockets of Pennsylvania’s rivalry, which could be key to determining the outcome of the race there.
With just 10 days to go, Trump and Biden are urging their supporters to help turn aid around, especially in some key states.
“To continue our movement. I’m going to trust you. Get out and vote, ”Trump told supporters in Florida on Friday. “Vote early. Bring your friends, your family, your neighbors, your coworkers. Grab your boss and say: Boss, let’s go. You got the vote. ”
Trump plans to hold large rallies in Lamberton, North Carolina, Circleville, Ohio, and Waukesha, Wisconsin, and promises to go full throttle by the last 10 days of the campaign with a series of large rallies despite the number of new daily coronaviruses. The case continues to climb. U.S. In Thursday, 1,671 new cases were reported, with many states setting records in the Midwest and West.
Biden has focused his attention on convincing voters that Trump does not deserve a second term because he has killed more than 220,000 Americans and wreaked havoc on the economy.
Ahead of Saturday’s rallies, Trump, who spent the night at his Mar-a-Lago resort after campaigning Friday in Florida, is expected to get an early vote on nearby West Palm Beach. Trump moved his official residence from New York to his private club last year, complaining that his home state politicians had treated him badly.
Biden, meanwhile, will host a pair of drive-in events in Bucks County, part of suburban Philadelphia, where 2016 Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton won by a slim margin, and Lucerne County, a blue-collar constituency, won by two votes. , But heavy for Trump last year four years ago. Biden’s campaign said the former vice president would join Bon Jovi, a native of neighboring New Jersey, for the Luzern event.
More than 52 million votes have already been cast before the winner is announced, with an additional 100 million or more expected.
For most of the fall the coronavirus epidemic has pushed Trump to the defensive, but for the moment it’s Biden’s team that has been forced to convince itself. In the final minutes of the discussion on Thursday night, the former vice president said he would support the U.S. in favor of renewable energy. Supports “transition” from oil into. Hours after the campaign, a statement was issued announcing that it would receive taxpayer subsidies for fossil fuel companies, not industries.
But Trump repeatedly occupied the issue while campaigning in Florida.
“It could be one of the biggest mistakes in the history of the presidential debate,” he said, glancing at a rally in the village of a divorced retirement community in Central Florida, where thousands of people gathered outside on the polo field. Most did not wear masks.
Later, in Pensacola, Trump narrated moments of joy.
“It felt like he made it, it felt like he was getting better. He went down from the stage, went back to his basement, and then they hit him with the question of the king. They hit him with something called oil, “he told a crowd in Penhdale, Florida, which is the largest in his campaign so far.
While Florida still logs thousands of new COVID-19 cases every day, audience members and shoulder-to-shoulder comparing America to Great Again hats compared to face-to-face ingots. Individual voting in the state began Monday.
As part of his damage control, Biden was sent to help running mate Kamala Harris clarify his condition while he was campaigning in Swing State Georgia.
“Let’s be really clear about this: JB will not ban De Fred King,” Harris said, referring to a technique that uses pressure liquids for oil or natural gas. “It will deal with oil subsidies. You know, the president likes to take everything out of context. But let’s be clear, the very thing we were talking about was banning subsidies, but it wouldn’t ban faraking in America. ”
As he campaigned in The Villages, Trump hurled insults at Harris who drew attention to his gender and quickly made criticisms.
“Kamala will not be your first woman president,” Trump said. “Look, we are not going to be a socialist nation. We will not have a socialist president, especially no female socialist president. ”
Speaking of Biden and oil, it is popular among many liberals who end up relying on the country’s remnants for fuel, while the swing can hurt working class voters in states like Pennsylvania, Ohio and Texas, which are industry-dependent, and especially fracking. , To make a living.
Trump’s allies immediately began running new attack ads, capturing Democrats’ inconsistent responses to the holiday. And Trump played a video at his Pensacola rally that included past comments about Biden and Harris fracking, in which Harris supported the ban during his primary campaign.
As part of his plan to fight climate change, Byden has said he will only ban new gas and oil permits on federal land. Most of the oil and gas does not come from the federal lands.
