Today, Democrats are dispatching a current and a former president to battleground states as Election Day rapidly approaches. President Biden and Vice President Harris are scheduled to speak at a fundraiser in Pennsylvania to aid Senate hopeful John Fetterman, gubernatorial candidate Josh Shapiro and other Democrats on the ballot. Former president Barack Obama plans to be in Georgia at a rally aiming to give a boost to Sen. Raphael G. Warnock (D-Ga.), gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams and other Peach State Democrats.
Meanwhile, the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) was attacked during an early-morning break-in at the couple’s San Francisco home by an assailant who was searching for the speaker and shouted, “Where is Nancy,” according to a person briefed on the case.
