Jill Biden, the wife of Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, made three separate campaign stops Saturday in St. Paul and Minneapolis.
Biden started at Golden Thyme Coffee & Cafe, a minority-owned business in St. Paul’s historic Rondo neighborhood, to tout her husband’s small business plan. She then visited the Sanneh Foundation Conway Community Center in St. Paul before traveling to Utepils Brewing in Minneapolis for a get-out-the-vote event.
"Joe has spent his entire career listening and bringing people together," she said at the "Women for Biden" event. "He will be a president for all Americans."

Biden also extended her thoughts and prayers to the president and first lady while they face the coronavirus.
This was her second time campaigning for her husband in Minnesota. Biden, a former educator, toured Jeffers Pond Elementary School in Shakopee on Sept. 9 with Gov. Tim Walz and Sen. Amy Klobuchar.
