Just days away from the midterm elections, former President Barack Obama returned to the campaign trail Friday to urge support for Democratic candidates in narrow races and warn of looming threats to democracy.
The former president's first stop was Georgia, where he campaigned for Sen. Raphael Warnock and gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams.
"Democracy is not self-executing," Obama said to a crowd of more than 5,000 voters. "It depends on us working, nurturing, caring for it not just on Election Day, but every day in between."
"This election matters, Georgia," he added.
