VP candidate Vance to campaign in Sparta Tuesday

This will be Vance’s fourth visit to Michigan since being named Donald Trump’s running mate in July

Vance, a Senator from Ohio, will speak at Apple Valley Events in Sparta where his campaign says he’ll address inflation and immigration.

Michigan is a battleground state on the path to the White House where the presidential campaigns are focusing their efforts. Just last week, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, the Democratic vice-presidential candidate, held events in Grand Rapids and Lansing.

The latest EPIC-MRA poll shows a tight race in Michigan, with 47% of those surveyed saying they would vote for former president Donald Trump, while 46% saying they would vote for Vice-President Kamala Harris. The poll has a margin of plus or minus 4%, putting the results at a statistical tie.

This will be Vance’s fourth visit to Michigan since being named Donald Trump’s running mate in July. Tickets to Tuesday’s event can be reserved online at the Trump campaign website.
