U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders is scheduled to make two stops in Florida on Wednesday in an effort to stump for Democratic gubernatorial nominee Andrew Gillum.

Sanders will make an 11:30 a.m. stop in Orlando at the University Central Florida at 12777 Gemini Blvd.

He’s also scheduled to appear at 3:30 p.m. Wednesday in Tampa at the University of South Florida at 116600 USF Bull Run Dr.

The rallies are free and open to the public. Tickets are not required for the Orlando or the Tampa event, but an RSVP is encouraged.

Sanders will appear with the Democratic nominee for lieutenant governor Chris King and Democratic candidate for attorney general Sean Shaw.

In July, Sanders appeared at a rally in support of Gillum, who is facing off against Republican gubernatorial nominee Ron DeSantis.

The midterm election is Nov. 6. Early voting is already underway.
