ROANOKE, Va. (AP) — Republican vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan is returning to Virginia.

The Virginia campaign of GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney says Ryan will visit Northwest Hardware in Roanoke on Wednesday morning.

The Wisconsin congressman was introduced as Romney's running mate on Aug. 11 during a campaign stop in Norfolk. He's since made stops in Richmond and northern Virginia.

Ryan's visit follows stops last week by Vice President Joe Biden in several Southside and southwestern Virginia cities as part of President Barack Obama's re-election campaign.
