Link to tweet
He launched a successful, eight-day bus tour through rural Iowa last month that sparked an uptick in volunteers, precinct captain requests and caucus commitments. He doubled his fundraising in the last quarter, allowing him to flood the states airwaves with ads.
This week, Bidens Iowa fortunes picked up again when he landed perhaps the most influential Iowa endorsement to date Rep. Abby Finkenauer, the second youngest person ever elected to Congress. That followed on the heels of endorsement from two other influential state Democrats Tom Vilsack, a former governor and U.S. secretary of Agriculture, and his wife, Christie and a well-timed cash infusion in TV ads from a pro-Biden superPAC.
Bidens rebound comes amid a concentrated effort here. From Nov. 30 through this weekend, Biden will have spent 16 days in Iowa. By caucus day, he will have spent $4 million in integrated paid media, including broadcast TV, cable, Hulu, and social media.
The former vice president is on a second extended bus tour now and the campaign just announced a separate surrogate bus tour next week with former Secretary of State John Kerry, Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, and various federal and state lawmakers from across the country.
