Democrat handlers were forced to hide half of Temple University’s basketball arena.

President Barack Obama won Philadelphia handily in 2012 with 85% of the vote, but he struggled to fill half a college basketball arena there Sunday, where he appeared on behalf of Rep. Wolf (D-Pa.)

Democrat handlers were forced to hide half of Temple University’s basketball arena with huge black drapes, and even with that trick Obama failed to fill all the seats.

Looks like @WolfForPA and the President are only going to fill 1/4 of the venue in Philly. ROUGH. #pagov pic.twitter.com/6KZEWpZIaC

Liacuros Center, where the President spoke, has 10,000 seats.

As previously reported, crowds have been exiting while Obama speaks on the campaign trail for candidates in Maryland and Wisconsin.
