Barack Obama to visit R.I. for Whitehouse

PROVIDENCE -- U.S. Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., will visit Rhode Island next month at a fundraiser for Senate candidate Sheldon Whitehouse.

The Whitehouse campaign announced Obama's visit this afternoon. Obama will be the featured "special guest" at the fundraiser on Oct. 12 at 5:30 p.m.

While the event is set to take place in Providence, the exact location has not been announced.

Whitehouse is running against Republican incumbent Lincoln Chafee.
