Romney was campaigning Thursday in Virginia, while Ryan was appearing at events in Nevada and Colorado. Ahead of campaign events in Virginia, Romney released a Web video highlighting a decades-old barbecue chain in Richmond that's shutting its doors. "When President Obama took office there was a lot of hope that things were going to change. Well, he didn't change anything," a woman connected to the business says in the video. The Obama campaign released a new ad touting former Secretary of State Colin Powell's recent endorsement of Obama. It will run in 10 states, including Minnesota. Obama's return to the campaign begins in Green Bay, Wis., where he'll make up an event that was canceled earlier in the week because of the storm. He had a rally planned later in Las Vegas, as well as an event in Boulder, Colo., a heavily Democratic area. Aides said Obama planned to mention the storm victims in his remarks. Biden had two events scheduled in Iowa. More than 19 million people have already voted in the presidential election, either by mail or in person. No votes will be counted until Nov. 6, but some key states are releasing the party affiliation of those who have voted. Democrats have an edge in votes cast in Florida, Iowa, Nevada, North Carolina and Ohio. Republicans have an advantage in Colorado.
