This train tour will help Biden drive home the “Scranton vs. Park Avenue” contrast that he’s been trying to draw to highlight his humble roots and Trump’s privileged upbringing. During the tour, Biden is set to meet with workers, including union members, to hear “how they have struggled to get ahead in Trump’s economy,” according to the campaign. Most of the tour goes through Pennsylvania, a must-win state for Biden where polls show he is leading Trump. But in a sign that the Biden campaign is serious about playing offense in Ohio, Biden plans to meet with voters in Alliance. Biden’s campaign has also added about $4.5 million in TV advertising spots in the state, according to Advertising Analytics.
