NextImg:Biden campaign debuts new Wisconsin ad ahead of GOP's Milwaukee debate

President Joe Biden's 2024 reelection campaign is running a new ad in Wisconsin on Tuesday, just one day before Republican presidential hopefuls are set to debate in Milwaukee.

Wisconsin will likely play a critical role in determining the winner of the 2024 general election, as it did in 2020. Biden himself visited Milwaukee to tout his climate and economic platform just last week, and Vice President Kamala Harris has attended multiple campaign events in the state in recent weeks.

TRUMP DEBATE DECISION: GOP FRONTRUNNER CONFIRMS HE WILL NOT TURN UP FOR SHOWCASE EVENT

The ad itself, the first part of a $25 million campaign targeting black and Hispanic voters in battleground states, features cement mason Kilah Engelke discussing "how President Biden's economic legislation is making life better and increasing wages for working families like hers."

"As MAGA Republicans head to the debate stage in Milwaukee this Wednesday to highlight just how out of touch their views are with the American people, President Biden's campaign is excited to spotlight how his administration is bringing back manufacturing and creating good-paying jobs for Wisconsinites from the perspective of a Wisconsinite herself," Biden campaign communications director Michael Tyler added in a statement. "Building on the strong work that we have done already to strengthen Wisconsin Democrats, we will continue to compete and invest aggressively in the state."

Biden campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez previously said that the battleground ad campaign will seek to draw a contrast with the "extreme and out-of-touch positions" Republicans hold, which will be "put on display" during Wednesday's debate in Milwaukee, the first GOP debate of the 2024 election cycle.

However, former President Donald Trump, the Republican front-runner, announced over the weekend that he would be skipping the Milwaukee debate, despite recent speculation that he would take part.

"New CBS POLL, just out, has me leading the field by 'legendary' numbers. TRUMP 62%, 46 Points above DeSanctimonious (who is crashing like an ailing bird!), Ramaswamy 7%, Pence 5%, Scott 3%, Haley 2%, Sloppy Chris Christie 2%, 'Aida' Hutchinson 1%," the former president wrote on Truth Social. "The public knows who I am & what a successful Presidency I had, with Energy Independence, Strong Borders & Military, Biggest EVER Tax & Regulation Cuts, No Inflation, Strongest Economy in History, & much more. I WILL THEREFORE NOT BE DOING THE DEBATES!"

Trump lost Wisconsin to Biden by less than 1 percentage point in 2020, and he carried the state over former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton by a similar margin in 2016.
