POTUS to visit University of Akron in Ohio Wednesday.

I go to grad school there. On the downside, parking will be a nightmare for students. On the upside, it's because he's so popular.

This isn't NJ. Beside, they were passing out tickets today. I only heard about it yesterday. My guess is that this is an alternative venue for events he cancelled on the East coast. Also, it is an indoor venue.

I think he's doing the right thing by focusing on his job as president during this storm, but the fact that he isn't campaigning right now in what promises to be a very close election isn't helping his chances of winning the race. Hopefully, he'll have some more time by Wednesday to get back on the campaign trail and emerge victorious next Tuesday!!
