Delaware Senate: Vice President to Campaign for Coons

BAGHDAD - SEPTEMBER 1:  U.S. Vice President Joe Biden speaks during U.S. Forces-Iraq change of command ceremony September 1, 2010 in Baghdad, Iraq. The military ceremony signaled a formal end to combat operations in Iraq after seven years of war that claimed more than 4,400 American lives.

Vice President Joe Biden’s “heading home to Delaware to try and help keep his old Senate seat in Democratic party hands,” CNN reports.

A Biden aide confirms to CNN that the vice president will likely appear with the New Castle County Executive Chris Coons, the Democrat’s Senate nominee in Delaware, at an event in the state sometime next week.

Coons will face off in the November midterm elections against conservative commentator and marketing consultant Christine O’Donnell, who upset Delaware’s longtime statewide Rep. Mike Castle, in Tuesday’s GOP primary.
