Biden to campaign in Wisconsin Friday

Vice President Joe Biden will return to Wisconsin to campaign in Oshkosh and Kenosha Friday.

Biden was last in Wisconsin Oct. 12 campaigning in La Crosse, one day after the Vice Presidential debate against Wisconsin Congressman Paul Ryan.

Biden’s wife, Dr. Jill Biden, visited Madison on Monday without her husband.

Wisconsin has voted Democratic in every presidential election since 1984, and in 2008 Obama won Wisconsin by over 10 points.

However, current Wisconsin presidential polls show the gap between Obama and Romney closing, with the latest Marquette University Law School Poll suggesting a virtual tie. Considering the close race, both campaigns have increased their presence in Wisconsin.

President Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama and former President Bill Clinton have all made October visits to various Wisconsin locations. Ryan also campaigned in Wisconsin Oct. 15 at Carroll University in Waukesha.

Doors open at 8:30 a.m. at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh and at 11:30 a.m. at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside in Kenosha.
