Vice President Joe Biden once again misstated the state in which he was campaigning, this time addressing an Ohio crowd as if he is in Iowa.

“Literally, ladies and gentleman, this is a guy who is running all the ads here in Iowa saying that he is going to get tough on China,” Biden said during a campaign speech in Ohio.

Earlier this year, Biden made the same kind of mistake while campaigning in Virginia. “With you, we can win North Carolina again, and if we do, we win the election!” Biden told a Virginia crowd in September.
