WASHINGTON - U.S. President Barack Obama will not travel to a campaign event scheduled for Tuesday in Wisconsin and will stay in Washington to monitor Hurricane Sandy, the White House said on Monday.
The event, just eight days ahead of the Nov. 6 election, was
scheduled to take place in the battleground state’s Green Bay
area.
Instead, Obama will “stay in Washington … on Tuesday and
closely monitor the impact of and response to Hurricane Sandy,”
the White House said in a statement.
