Biden To Hold Rallies In Lakeland, Tampa
ADVERTISEMENT
Published: October 6, 2008
TAMPA (AP) - Democratic vice presidential nominee Joe Biden is planning to hold rallies in Tampa and Lakeland during a two-day visit in Florida this week.
Campaign officials said Sunday that Biden will speak primarily about the economy during a rally Tuesday at the Lake Mirror Park amphitheater in Lakeland. Biden will hold a similar event Wednesday at the University of South Florida's Sun Dome in Tampa.
Biden and running mate Barack Obama have been rising in the polls with less than a month until Election Day. Republicans John McCain and Sarah Palin have campaigned heavily in Florida, a critical battleground state with 27 electoral votes up for grabs.
Palin, the Republican vice presidential candidate, is scheduled to hold a large rally in Pensacola on Tuesday.
