The campaign to re-elect President Barack Obama will open a field office tonight in Eastlake.

Mayor Ted Andrzejewski will provide remarks during the event that begins at 7 p.m. at 35560 Vine St.

The Obama campaign said the Eastlake office will serve as a community hub for 2012 election activities in Lake County and this office opening is just the latest step in building up the campaign infrastructure across Ohio as election season ramps up.

Andrzejewski will thank volunteers for their efforts to help re-elect Obama and discuss the choice in this election between two fundamentally different visions of how to grow the economy, create middle-class jobs and pay down the debt.

Campaign officials said the choice is between Obama’s vision of moving America forward to an economy built to last with a strong middle class at its core or Mitt Romney’s vision of going back to the same “top-down” economic policies that crashed our economy and punished the middle class.

Following the speaking program, supporters will participate in a statewide night of action, hitting the phones to talk to their friends and neighbors about the stark choice in this election.
