President postpones Florida trip

Posted

WASHINGTON (AP) —President Barack Obama is postponing a planned Florida rally for Hillary Clinton because of Hurricane Matthew.

Obama had been scheduled to appear for Clinton on Wednesday in Miami Gardens. He was expected to emphasize the need for Democrats in Florida to make sure they're registered to vote ahead of Election Day.

But Clinton's campaign says the event is postponed.

The U.S. National Hurricane Center has issued a hurricane watch for South Florida.
