Democratic Party members and former U.S. presidents, including Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, are attending fundraising events for President Joe Biden, who is campaigning for re-election, and are lending support.
On the 6th (local time), former President Obama posted on his social networking service (SNS)
Former President Bill Clinton also said, “Please include me.” “Who else will attend?” he appealed to rally support.
The two former presidents attached the site address of President Biden’s fundraising page along with their posts.
The Hill commented, “Bringing three presidents together could be a turning point for Biden’s campaign fundraising, considering former President Obama’s continued popularity in the Democratic Party.”
Meanwhile, NBC reported that although the location of President Biden’s fundraiser has not been confirmed, it could be held at Radio City Music Hall.
According to a recent opinion poll, President Biden is trailing former President Donald Trump by a single digit in major swing states such as Georgia, Wisconsin, Arizona, and Michigan.
On the other hand, in Pennsylvania, another major battleground, a survey showed that President Biden would be ahead if he faced former President Trump.
Officials familiar with the fundraising event expressed the view that if the March fundraising campaign is successful, the three former and current presidents may organize another fundraising event.
According to Axios, President Biden has secured $117 million (approximately 155.2 billion won) in cash before the 2024 presidential race begins.
