Vice President Joe Biden will join Obama on Halloween Sunday in Cleveland for another major rally. Ohio is considered to be a crucial state for Obama to maintain his agenda.

First Lady Michelle Obama will also be participating in some last minute campaigning, holding two rallies in Philadelphia and Las Vegas the day before  elections.

The White House is focusing on these specific cities because they believe voter turnout here could really make the difference in the outcome of the midterm elections.
