In Phoenixville, Jill Biden And Anne Holton Campaign For Hillary Clinton

PHOENIXVILLE, PA -- Jill Biden was in Phoenixville on Sunday alongside Anne Holton, the wife of Vice Presidential candidate Tim Kaine, to campaign for Hillary Clinton.

The current and prospective Second Lady of the United States took the stage at the Phoenixville Foundry during the Chester County Women Vote Organizing Event.

Holton, a lawyer and judge, is the former Virginia Secretary of Education. Biden, a Montgomery County native and a teacher, has a Masters in English from Villanova and a doctorate in education.

The pair spoke on women's rights and the importance of voting. They painted Clinton as the candidate for the working class, and said how crucial "working Americans" would be to electing her.

Donald Trump's campaign issued a statement addressing the visit by the pair, saying that it would not influence voters.

"After numerous visits by the Democratic candidates themselves and high profile surrogates, the Clinton campaign can't close the deal with Keystone State voters," said Greg Manz, Trump's Pennsylvania Communications Director. "This latest visit by Dr. Jill Biden and Anne Holton to Pennsylvania will also fail to move the needle because Pennsylvania voters soundly reject Hillary Clinton's corruption and pay-to-play scheme where she traded official State Department access to foreign agents in exchange for multi-million-dollar donations to the Clinton Foundation and six-figure speaking fees for her husband. Keystone State voters know Hillary is nothing more than a 30-year career politician who lined her pockets while in power and bottom line is she lacks the judgment and character to serve as our President."

Clinton leads Trump by 6.3 points in the latest average of national polls, according to RealClearPolitics. In Pennsylvania, she leads by 6.2 points.
