Vice President Joe Biden returns to Washington to campaign with Patty Murray

Vice President Joe Biden will return to Washington State in two weeks to stump for and with Patty Murray, the senator's campaign team announced this afternoon.

Biden will headline an October 8th rally at the University of Washington Tacoma. Registration will begin at 9 AM. The rally is free and open to the public.

“I am very honored to welcome Vice President Biden back to Washington state in October," Murray said in a news release. "He has been a true champion for middle and working class families across our state and nation."

"This election is about continuing to move our country forward and take care of families and businesses on Main Street. There's no one better to help us get out the vote than a good friend of Main Street, our Vice President. I look forward to joining him in Tacoma next month."

The Vice President will likely also appear at one or more fundraisers for Murray, although details of any such events were not made available in the release.

First Lady Michelle Obama is additionally scheduled to appear on Murray's behalf later in the month, on October 25th, as part of a broader swing on behalf of Democratic incumbents around the country.

Biden previously appeared on the senator's behalf back in February, at a fundraising luncheon inside the Westin's grand ballroom.
