REUTERSUS President Joe Biden is making a pitch for his re-election to Republicans who do not support their party's standard-bearer, Donald Trump, in November's election, a Biden campaign official said on Thursday. The Democratic president's campaign has hired a national Republican engcamagement director: Austin Weatherford, who was chief of staff to former Republican congressman Adam Kinzinger, an outspoken critic of Trump, the official said. Biden and Trump are in a tighter rematch for the White House than in 2020, according to Reuters/Ipsos polling. The Trump campaign did not return a request for comment. The Biden campaign has held meetings with Haley voters and is placing a "seven-figure ad buy" targeting such voters, the Biden campaign official said.
