‘From this house to the White House’: Biden visits his childhood home

Democratic presidential nominee Biden has returned to his roots on his final day of campaigning with a visit to his childhood home in Scranton, Pennsylvania.

Biden arrives at the small, white two-story house to a hero’s welcome of more than 100 people cheering across the street.

Biden greets the crowd and says, “It’s good to be home!”

Biden lived in the home until he was 10 years old. Today, he walks up the front steps and chats with the current owners before going in with his granddaughters.

When Biden comes out, he says the current residents had him sign their wall.

“From this house to the White House with the grace of God,” reads the writing on the wall.

Biden then walks across the street to greet the crush of supporters, who cheers his name and applaud.

Pennsylvania is key to Biden’s White House hopes. He plans to visit Philadelphia later.
