© Reuters A rare scene! Biden and Obama team up for the first time in a last-ditch effort for the Democrats
Financial Associates News, November 6 (publisher Bian Chun)With only 2 days left in the US midterm election, a rare scene appeared: Current President Biden and former President Obama appeared on the same stage at the Pennsylvania campaign site, making a last ditch effort to save. the Democratic Party.
In previous mid-term campaigns, Biden was not as aggressive as his predecessor. In fact, many Democratic candidates are reluctant to share the stage with Biden due to fears that Biden’s extremely low approval score may be “at a disadvantage.” Compared to Biden, they pin their hopes on Obama, which makes Obama also the protagonist of this mid-term electoral campaign.
On Saturday, Biden and Obama finally appeared together at an election rally in Philadelphia for the first time since Biden took office. He points out that the two presidents are joining forces to save the Democrats’ fortunes in the midterm elections before the final call.
Biden and Obama took the stage to thunderous applause and loud music for Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro and Senator John Fettman Fetterman).
In a fiery speech, Biden slammed former President Trump and the Republicans. He said the elections were a battle between two very different agendas. He warned that if the Republicans won Congress, they would try to overturn the US safety net plan.
Biden also affirmed Obama’s signature legislative result, the Affordable Care Act, and vowed to protect it. Republicans tried to repeal the health care bill.
Obama praised Biden’s achievements over the past two years, saying he knew exactly what Biden would lose. He complained that if the Democrats hadn’t suffered a big loss in the midterm elections, he could have done more on climate change and the Supreme Court would have been made up differently.
During Obama’s first term as president, the Democrats also lost control of the House of Representatives in the midterm elections, but narrowly held the Senate.
Battlefield
Comprehensive data from US election agency FiveThirtyEight poll shows that as of November 3, Eastern time, Biden’s approval rate was only 42.3%, while the disapproval rate was as high as 53.2%. Compared to the same period, Biden’s approval rate is the lowest among recent presidents, and even slightly below former President Trump’s 42.4% over the same period.
Conversely, Obama’s approval rate continued to rise as he neared his departure, at one point surpassing 55%.
Due to increased popularity, Obama has recently been on the offensive in major key states, including Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, Michigan and Wisconsin.
Biden, on the other hand, appears primarily in Democratic districts such as New Mexico, California, Illinois, New York, and Maryland.
Apparitions in Pennsylvania are rare exceptions. Although Pennsylvania is a fluctuating state, as Biden was born in the state, he feels a special bond with the place emotionally.
Pennsylvania is also one of six key states to watch in this mid-term election, while the other five states are Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Nevada. Democrats and Republicans are equally contested in these states, and the results of these six states are likely to determine the final direction of the elections.
Former US President Donald Trump also attended an election rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday for the platform of Republican Senate candidate Mehmet Oz and candidate for governor Doug Mastriano Mastriano).
The three-term president met in Pennsylvania over the weekend for a head-to-head confrontation, a sign of the state’s importance in the midterm elections.
Right now, the Democrats are on a very bad side. According to numerous polls, Democrats have a high probability of losing the House of Representatives in mid-term elections, and their control of the Senate is also in jeopardy. This means that Biden’s next term could be very difficult.
