BRYN MAWR, Pa. (AP) — President Joe Biden made a rare jump into the 2024 political battleground fray since taking a step back after ending his reelection bid.

He campaigned Tuesday in Pennsylvania for a close ally after having stopped in Wisconsin to spotlight a signature legislative achievement.

But as Biden made a quick swing through the key states, two Democratic senators locked in competitive reelection battles took markedly different approaches to the outgoing president, whose approval ratings in a significant swath of the country remain in the pits.

Biden was fully embraced by Democratic Sen. Bob Casey when participating in a private campaign fundraiser in suburban Philadelphia for the senior Pennsylvania senator. The event overlapped with the Philadelphia Phillies baseball playoff game against the New York Mets.
