Trump speaking in Flint, MI on September 17, 2024

The visit comes just over a week after Trump spoke to voters in Flint

According to the Trump-Vance campaign, Donald Trump will hold a rally at FALK Production in Walker this Friday to discuss inflation and the economy. The event is scheduled to start at 2 p.m. He’ll then head to Macomb Community College in Warren, Michigan, where he’ll host a town hall meeting to discuss the auto industry.

The visit comes just over a week after Trump spoke to voters in Flint and vice-presidential candidate, Ohio Senator J.D. Vance, held a campaign rally in Sparta.

It will be a busy week in Michigan, which is considered a vital state on the path to the White House. Gwen Walz, the wife of Democratic nominee for Vice President Tim Walz, will campaign in Ann Arbor on Tuesday, while J.D. Vance will speak in Traverse City on Wednesday.

According to the latest EPIC-MRA poll, the presidential race is tight in Michigan, with 47% of those surveyed saying they would vote for former President Donald Trump and 46% for Vice President Kamala Harris. The poll has a 4% plus or minus margin of error, so the results represent a statistical tie.
