Presidential power made landfall in Pennsylvania on Saturday, with President Biden joining his old boss, former President Barack Obama, in the Keystone State for a last-ditch effort to drum up Democratic support in a critical swing state prior to Tuesday's midterm elections.

CNN reported that the two presidents will hold a joint rally together in Philadelphia to stump for Pennsylvania's Democratic Senate candidate, John Fetterman. The pair have rarely made appearances together during Biden's time in office, and this will mark the pair's first joint political rally for the midterms. Biden, however, is no stranger to his home state, as the president has ventured to Pennsylvania more than 20 times since being elected, CNN reported.
