In Madison, Biden focused on building voter enthusiasm in the Get Out the Vote initiative, according to the CBS article. Speaking to a crowd of 150 — most wearing masks — in front of the Daisy Cafe & Cupcakery, she reminded voters of the power and responsibility they held, according to the WSJ article.
“I know you’re already engaged or you probably wouldn’t be out here this afternoon,” Biden said. “I know you’re busy and you’re probably stretched so thin, but I’m asking you to do more because this election is too important to sit on the sidelines.”
