“The biggest names in Democratic and Republican politics — Joe Biden, Barack Obama and Donald Trump — head to Pennsylvania on Saturday hoping to tip the balance in a closely contested midterm race that could determine control of the U.S. Senate,” Reuters reports.
New York Times: “The moment represents both a clash from the past and a fight over the future. While the issues are distinctly 2022 — crime, high inflation and the unraveling of federal abortion rights — voters are again being asked to choose between the establishment politics of President Biden and former President Barack Obama, and the chaotic, disruptive force of former President Donald Trump.”
“To press their case, Mr. Biden and Mr. Obama will reunite in a familiar place, sharing a stage in Philadelphia — an event that brings back echoes of the enormous 2016 rally at Independence Mall where the party’s top leaders joined Bruce Springsteen and Madonna to try to push Hillary Clinton over the finish line.”
