MI-GOV: Biden to campaign for Gretchen Whitmer in Michigan
LANSING, MI -- Former Vice President Joe Biden on Wednesday endorsed Michigan Democratic candidate for governor Gretchen Whitmer.
"Michigan's middle-class families need a governor who knows how to get things done, and that's why I'm endorsing Gretchen," said Biden, who served as Vice President from 2009-2017 under former President Barack Obama.
"Gretchen has spent her whole life getting real results for the middle class, whether it was raising the minimum wage, or working to expand Medicaid. Gretchen's got a real plan to fix the roads in Michigan and get our kids the skills they need to compete for good-paying jobs. That's exactly the kind of leadership Michigan needs in the governor's office right now, and it's why I'm so proud to be in Gretchen's corner," Biden said in a statement.
Biden is expected to campaign with Whitmer in Southeast Michigan leading up to the Nov. 6 general election.
