 WEST ALLIS, Wis. (WFRV) - Mitt Romney is canceling Wisconsin event Monday night.

He is also scrapping all events tomorrow in Ohio and Iowa.

Romney was scheduled to attend a Victory rally at Wisconsin Products Pavilion in West Allis.

Local 5 received the following statement from Romney for President Communications Director Gail Gitcho:

"Out of sensitivity for the millions of Americans in the path of Hurricane Sandy, we are canceling tonight's events with Governor Romney in Wisconsin and Congressman Ryan in Melbourne and Lakeland, Florida. We are also canceling all events currently scheduled for both Governor Romney and Congressman Ryan on Tuesday. Governor Romney believes this is a time for the nation and its leaders to come together to focus on those Americans who are in harm's way. We will provide additional details regarding Governor Romney's and Congressman Ryan's schedule when they are available." 

Local 5 will have reaction to the decision on our evening news.
