PHILADELPHIA — Barack Obama turned his political attention Friday to Pennsylvania — a state Donald Trump won in 2016. At a campaign rally at the Dell Music Center in Philadelphia, Obama implored Pennsylvanians to vote in November because the election was more consequential than any he could remember. Obama twice carried Pennsylvania in his presidential races, and Democrats hope the state can help them retake control of Congress from the GOP. Obama will “energize those blue-collar Democrats who worried about their jobs under Obama and went out to vote for Donald Trump,” Barletta said. Obama has endorsed more than 80 Democrats in more than a dozen states.
