Indiana’s critical U.S. Senate race will draw two presidents to the state within the coming days.

The Indiana Democratic Party announced Wednesday former President Barack Obama will campaign for incumbent U.S. Sen. Joe Donnelly (D-Ind.) and other Democratic candidates Sunday in Gary.

President Donald Trump will make two campaign trips to Indiana – Friday in Indianapolis and Monday in Fort Wayne.

That follows recent appearances by former Vice President Joe Biden, campaigning for Donnelly; and Donald Trump, Jr., campaigning for Republican Senate candidate Mike Braun, among others.
