Pence focusing on Michigan in final days of campaign

Republican vice presidential nominee Mike Pence returned to Michigan today  to campaign for the Republican ticket, and he’ll be back tomorrow  for a rally in Holland.

The Indiana governor was put on the ticket to help win the industrial Midwest and he says that goal is within reach.  Pence said Trump’s message on trade deals and the economy resonates in Michigan.

       At an airport rally in Lansing, Pence said the race is tightening -- and Donald Trump could be the first Republican nominee to win Michigan since 1988.

       “This movement is coming together, Michigan is coming together, America is coming together.                 We’re going to make Donald Trump the next president of the United States of America.”      (cheers)

       Most polls show the gap is shrinking in Michigan, but Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton remains in the lead.
