Second gentleman Doug Emhoff campaigning this weekend in Delco and Montco

Second gentleman Doug Emhoff will be campaigning in Philadelphia’s collar counties to mark a holiday you probably didn’t even know existed: National Father-Daughter Day, which falls on the second Sunday of October each year.

Emhoff, 56, the husband of Vice President Kamala Harris, is set to speak at a Delaware County phone banking kickoff for a group of girl dads campaigning for Harris. Emhoff has a 25-year-old daughter, Ella Emhoff.

The second gentleman will then visit a voter engagement event dedicated to Jewish voters in Montgomery County.

Emhoff made history as the first Jewish spouse of an American vice president. During a speech at the Democratic National Convention in August, Emhoff said he had a “typical Jersey suburban childhood” where he “took the bus to Hebrew school.”
