2008 Campaign Event Map - Joe Biden


The following map highlights the counties that Joe Biden held a campaign event during the general election campaign. A campaign event is an event which is open to the public and announced in advance. For example, Joe Biden making a surprise visit to a local factory is not counted as a campaign event; a rally, town hall, speech or other official campaign event is counted.

Biden had 96 campaign events in 83 counties, and 20 states. Biden won 58 out of the 83 counties in which he visited (70%).

Note: In Virginia, unlike other states, is organized into both independent cities and counties. In order for campaign visits to be visible, I highlighted the surrounding county around the city which was visited.
