Trump, Biden battle for key swing-state voters
Fox News contributors Rachel-Campos Duffy and Sean Duffy weigh in on ‘Fox & Friends Weekend.’
Former President Barack Obama will head to Philadelphia on Wednesday to campaign on behalf of the Biden-Harris ticket, his first appearance on the trail thus far.

TRUMP, BIDEN FUNNEL AD DOLLARS INTO KEY BATTLEGROUNDS IN FINAL STRETCH

Meanwhile, vice presidential hopeful Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., has tweaked her campaign events after multiple staffers tested positive for the coronavirus, but her husband, Doug Emhoff, will hold a rally in Philadelphia on Saturday.
Trump will also head to the Keystone State on Tuesday and hold a rally in the historically blue city of Erie, which flipped red in 2016. Other members of his campaign team will visit the state in the upcoming weeks.
