Former President Barack Obama is rallying in Milwaukee for Democratic candidates up and down the ballot Friday afternoon. He is arriving in Wisconsin two days after President Trump spoke in Mosinee to support Republican candidates. Former Vice President Joe Biden is expected to make a campaign appearance in the state next week.

Wisconsin was a critical state in the 2016 elections, swinging to support Mr. Trump by a narrow margin, so national Democrats are eager to retain a Democratic Senate seat and capture the governorship. Obama is rallying for Democratic Sen. Tammy Baldwin, who is facing Republican Leah Vukmir, and Democratic gubernatorial candidate Tony Evers, who is running against Gov. Scott Walker. The CBS News Battleground Tracker rates Baldwin's race as "Likely Democrat." Randy Bryce, the Democratic candidate for the district House Speaker Paul Ryan is vacating, will also appear at the rally.
