VP Joe Biden visits Atlanta for Nunn fundraiser | www.wsbtv.com

ATLANTA — Vice President Joe Biden’s midterm election fundraising tour made a stop in Atlanta, where he attended a private fundraising event for U.S. Senate candidate Michelle Nunn on Tuesday.

Nunn, a Democrat, is running for Georgia’s open U.S. Senate seat. Republican Sen. Saxby Chambliss is retiring, and Democrats see Nunn as one of their best chances to pick up a GOP seat.

Biden is campaigning and raising money around the country for Democrats in the 2014 midterm elections. Many of his stops are in states such as Georgia, where President Barack Obama is unpopular among white voters. For Nunn to win, she’ll have to get support from white voters who supported Mitt Romney over Obama in 2012.
