Biden Called Woman Who Wrote Viral Op-Ed
October 21, 2020 at 10:51 am EDT By Taegan Goddard


A woman who lost her husband to the novel coronavirus told CNN that she spoke to Joe Biden last night, after her Newark Star Ledger op-ed pleading with Americans to vote Donald Trump out of office went viral.

Said Alice Roberts: “It was incredible. He called me, and he told me about his tragedies in his life… It was honestly just like talking to a friend.”

She added: “It was like 11:30pm and we just chatted for probably about 20 minutes. There’s not a lot of highlights in my days recently but that was definitely a highlight.”
