Former President Obama to campaign in Madison on Tuesday, the first day of early voting

Former President Barack Obama is hitting the campaign trail in Wisconsin next week.

Obama will be in Madison for a rally on Tuesday, the state's first day of in-person early voting.

He's set to appear with Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and "Democrats up and down, the ballot," to urge people to vote early for Vice President Kamala Harris, the campaign said.

The former president headlined a Harris campaign rally last week in Pennsylvania, where he stressed that the race is about character and values as much as policy differences. During his visit to the swing state, he specifically urged Black men to support Harris, saying they were "coming up with all kinds of reasons and excuses" not to vote for her.
