Vice President Joe Biden will campaign in Minnesota next week
Two people with knowledge of the visit say the Democratic vice president will hold two campaign events in Minnesota next Tuesday. Biden is holding a campaign rally in Minneapolis over the noon hour. He'll also hold a campaign rally in Rochester later that afternoon.
Biden's visit comes two days before Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney holds a fundraiser in Minnesota. The visits are a sign that both presidential campaigns are putting a greater emphasis on Minnesota. President Obama last campaigned in the state in June.
