After a morning rally at Florida State, Jill and Joe Biden (accompanied by son Hunter and his daughter Naomi) jetted across Florida, stopping for rallies in Gainesville and Daytona Beach before packing it in for the night. Florida Senator Nelson introduced them at each site, and Biden-loving sunshine staters cheered them from start to finish, and often long after.
The Gainesville crowd was the biggest, having set the record last week for the biggest turnout for a Michelle Obama event. These University of Florida students, staff, and faculty also won the award for best costumes. We saw Santa, an old timey-looking jazz band (replete with suspenders), and a Republican for Obama who’d constructed a hat shaped like a model oil rig. They do love the Bidens here.
Enjoy the day in pictures:
