Spring House, Pennsylvania CNN — First lady Jill Biden stood at a church roughly 10 miles from the Philadelphia suburb where she grew up Sunday morning, making an urgent plea before several hundred churchgoers, many of whom held fans with a picture of the woman at the top of the Democratic ticket.
“One vote can win an election, and one election can set a new course,” Biden said at one of two morning services at the Bethlehem Baptist Church in Spring House, Pennsylvania. “Will you be that person? Will you act now? Will you speak up and use your voice and decide our future? Will you vote?”
The Sunday church stop kicked off a full day of events for the self-described “Philly girl” in the critical battleground of Pennsylvania as she spent the final weekend before Election Day stumping for Vice President Kamala Harris. While her husband, President Joe Biden, has been a scarce presence on the campaign trial, the first lady has been one Biden in demand for the Harris campaign.
Harris’ team has deployed the first lady to all seven battleground states in the last month. By Election Day, she will have appeared at nearly 30 campaign events over a three-week period, including trips to Georgia, Pennsylvania and North Carolina in the closing days of the race.
