Biden Campaigns In Philadelphia 2 Days Before Election: Replay
Joe Biden made a final pitch to voters in Pennsylvania with a Sunday rally outside Sharon Baptist Church.
PHILADELPHIA, PA — Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden wasn't far from his home in Delaware on Sunday, campaigning in Philadelphia two days before the Nov. 3 general election.
He participated in a “souls to the polls” event that is part of a nationwide effort to organize Black churchgoers to vote at Sharon Baptist Church.
“Every single day we’re seeing race-based disparities in every aspect of this virus,” Biden said at the drive-in event, shouting to be heard over the blaring car horns. He declared that Trump’s handling of COVID-19 was "almost criminal" and that the pandemic was a “mass casualty event in the Black community.”
