PHILADELPHIA — President Joe Biden will hold a fundraiser with Democratic Senate candidate John Fetterman in Philadelphia next week to boost his campaign in a tight and closely watched Senate race that could determine control of the chamber.
The Oct. 20 fundraiser in Philadelphia comes days after Senate fundraising reports are due in a race that has tightened with just four and a half weeks to go.
Biden hasn’t done much public campaigning for midterm candidates but has hosted several fundraisers to bring in money for Democrats who he hopes can mount a challenge from Republicans for control of Congress. Last week he attended a fundraiser at the home of New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy, vice chair of the Democratic Governor’s Association, as well as an event in New York for the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee.
