With the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur over, both presidential campaigns are unleashing surrogates today to court Jewish voters in Philadelphia.

U.S. Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.) was scheduled to stump for Republican John McCain at the B'rith Shalom House on Conshohocken Avenue this morning before visiting the Congregation of Shaare Shamayim this afternoon.

On the Democratic side, U.S. Rep. Allyson Schwartz (D-Abington), state Sen. Connie Williams (D-Montgomery), state Rep. Josh Shapiro (D-Abington), state Rep. Daylin Leach (D-Upper Merion) and former Philadelphia City Controller Jonathan Saidel were scheduled to stump for Barack Obama at the Klein Jewish Community Center this afternoon.

The campaign trail action underscores how neither candidate is taking local Jewish voters for granted
