DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — The campaign for Democratic President Barack Obama says Vice President Joe Biden will visit Iowa again later this week.

The campaign said Sunday that Biden will visit Fort Dodge, Iowa, on Thursday, but details of his visit weren't immediately available.

Biden also plans to campaign in Florida on Wednesday and in Pennsylvania on Thursday.

Iowa is one of nine key states that Obama and Republican Mitt Romney are focusing on in the closing days of the campaign.

In addition to Biden's visit, first lady Michelle Obama is scheduled to campaign in Iowa City and Sioux City on Monday.
