Hours before the US midterm elections, Democrats and Republicans are rushing to mobilize voters, going so far as to invite former presidents Donald Trump and Barack Obama, as well as current president Joe Biden, to the same core state.
And all the lights are on in this state where Trump-backed millionaire surgeon Mehmet Oz and bald, bumbling ex-mayor John Vetterman are vying for one of the most contested Senate seats on which the balance of power in the Senate depends. very likely it depends on the seat in particular.
During the November 8 midterm elections, Americans are being called to renew all seats in the House of Representatives, and a number of seats are at stake for locally elected representatives who determine their state’s policy on abortion and environmental laws.
Joe Biden has so far avoided stepping into the stands as part of a campaign to raise funds for his party, but on Saturday he takes the stage at a major festival in Pennsylvania, a stronghold of American democracy.
As Biden shared the stage with former President Barack Obama, known for his rhetorical skills, in front of a crowd, former President Donald Trump will stand in front of a sea of red hats in the small town of La Trobe, near Pittsburgh.
After a bitter inflation-focused campaign, Republicans appear to be becoming more and more confident in their chances of robbing the Democratic president of his congressional majority, and if their expectations are confirmed, the Republican billionaire appears determined to seize the moment to officially and quickly submit your candidacy for the presidential election, possibly starting from the third week of this month.
Biden says for now he intends to run, but the prospect isn’t necessarily appealing to all Democrats due to his declining popularity and age, given he’s approaching 80.
