[Asia Economy New York=Special Correspondent Joselgina] Former U.S. President Barack Obama is intensifying his efforts to support the Democratic Party ahead of the midterm elections this November.

According to the internet media Axios on the 25th (local time), former President Obama will attend a fundraising event hosted by the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) on the 8th of next month. This event is a fundraising effort aimed at helping the Democrats gain control of the Senate in the midterm elections, where one-third of the Senate seats are contested. Axios analyzed that "Obama is actively entering the midterm election race."

The event will be held in New York under the theme of a 'conversation' between Senator Gary Peters, chairman of the DSCC, and former President Obama. General admission tickets cost $25,000, and VIP tickets are $50,000. Prior to this, the political media outlet Politico reported that former President Obama will also attend a fundraising campaign hosted by the Democratic National Redistricting Committee (NDRC) on the 30th.

Former President Obama also supported Biden during the last presidential election by attending fundraising events. President Biden served as Vice President under Obama during his administration.

President Biden's approval rating has recently rebounded, surpassing 40% again. He is receiving recognition for successfully leading the passage of key legislative agendas, such as the Inflation Reduction Act, since taking office, creating a breakthrough to shift the midterm election phase.
