COATESVILLE, Pa.—Coast to coast, candidates and big-name backers made final appeals to voters Monday in the last hours of a fraught midterm election season, with Republicans excited about the prospect of winning back Congress even as President Joe Biden predicted his party would “surprise the living devil out of a lot of people.”
Keeping his message positive, the president said at an earlier virtual event, “Imagine what we can do in a second term if we maintain control.” Trump’s backing of JD Vance in Ohio this year was crucial in helping the author and venture capitalist—and onetime Trump critic—secure the GOP’s nomination for a Senate seat.
Arizona Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly also tried to strike a moderate tone. He praised the state’s late Republican senator, John McCain, while noting that he didn’t ask Biden to campaign with him but would “welcome the president to come here at any point.” That came too late for more than 41 million Americans who had already cast early ballots. Biden, meanwhile, wasn’t exclusively positive on the final day of campaigning. He’s spent weeks warning of extremism and also said Monday, “We’re up against some of the darkest forces we’ve ever seen in our history.”
Many others noted that Trump often focuses on drawing media attention and they saw the latest tease as aimed at generating excitement for his last rally. He won Ohio by 8 points in both 2016 and 2020.
