COLUMBUS, Ohio (WSYX) — Former President Barack Obama will be in Ohio on Saturday to campaign in Cleveland for Democratic candidates with less than two weeks to go before the November midterm elections.
Obama is expected to appear with Democratic gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton, who is running against Republican Vivek Ramaswamy, and Sherrod Brown, a Democrat and former United States senator who is seeking to unseat Republican U.S. Sen. Jon Husted.
The event location has been kept private to the public and was disclosed to attendees after they submit an RSVP. Doors are scheduled to open at 10:30 a.m.
The Ohio governor’s race and the U.S. Senate contest have become some of the most closely watched in the country.
The rally comes as Democrats look to energize their supporters during the final days of the campaign.
