MILWAUKEE (AP) -- Former President Barack Obama's campaign stop in Wisconsin Friday will be at a Milwaukee high school.

Obama is campaigning for Sen. Tammy Baldwin, gubernatorial candidate Tony Evers and other Democratic candidates on the ballot for the Nov. 6 election.

The Democratic Party of Wisconsin says Obama will appear at North Division High School on Milwaukee's north side Friday afternoon.

Obama's visit follows a rally by Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders Monday at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. While Democrats focus their efforts on Milwaukee this week, President Donald Trump returns Wednesday to a more rural part of the state he easily won by double digits in 2016.

Trump will campaign in the central Wisconsin city of Mosinee.
