DOYLESTOWN, PA — California Governor Gavin Newsom will be in Bucks County on Saturday, July 6 campaigning for the re-election of President Joe Biden, the Biden campaign announced this week.

According to press reports, the Democratic Governor will appear with state Sen. Steve Santarsiero, State Rep. Tim Brennan, Bucks County Commissioner Diane Ellis-Marseglia and Ashley Ehasz, the Democratic candidate running for U.S. Congress in Pennsylvania’s first district.

They are scheduled to appear at a 10 a.m. rally in the courtyard of the Bucks County Administration building at 55 West Court Street, Doylestown.

Bucks County is seen as a key swing county in Pennsylvania’s contested general election for President of the United States.

“Wear your Trump gear and bring your Trump flags,” the Republicans wrote in a campaign announcement being circulated on social media.
