(Las Vegas, NV)  –  Vice President Joe Biden’s political rally in Las Vegas is now set for later this week.

Campaign officials say the vice president’s trip was postponed due to today’s funeral for former Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Specter.

Biden will speak Thursday morning at the Culinary Academy on West Lake Mead Boulevard.

Free tickets will be available starting this morning at the following Obama campaign offices: 3230 East Charleston, 3440 West Cheyenne in North Las Vegas, and 2925 Green Valley Parkway in Henderson.

Original rally tickets will be honored at Thursday’s event.
