From NBC News: President Joe Biden’s re-election campaign is launching an effort at the start of National Pride Month to try to shore up support from LGBTQ voters.
The campaign plans to have a presence this month at more than 200 Pride events in 23 states, including all of the battleground states, and to launch a paid media blitz aimed at mobilizing LGBTQ voters, two campaign officials said in details first shared with NBC News.
The campaign will cap the month of outreach with a fundraiser in New York City on June 28.
Over the weekend, Vice President Kamala Harris kicked off Pride Month by greeting more than 150 LGBTQ leaders and allies in Los Angeles, and first lady Jill Biden made an unannounced stop at the Pittsburgh Pride festival.
NBC News exit polling in the 2020 election found Biden won 64% of the LGBTQ vote, compared with Trump at 27%. In April, the campaign launched its ‘Out For Biden-Harris’ campaign initiative to engage LGBTQ voters for the 2024 election
