Watch live: Trump hosts town hall in southern Michigan
Former President Trump will continue his battleground tour Friday in Michigan, hosting a town hall in a suburb of Detroit a day after absentee ballots were first mailed out.
The economy and the state's auto industry are likely to be subjects of conversation at the event, per a recent campaign statement.
"Michigan prides itself on being the auto capital of the world, and it’s the backbone of Michigan’s economy," the campaign wrote earlier this week. "President Donald J. Trump has shown time and time again that he is dedicated to supporting and rebuilding the auto-industry, starting with encouraging American manufacturing jobs."
Trump also made a stop in the outskirts of Grand Rapids on Friday afternoon, giving remarks on inflation and the economy from FALK Production in Walker, Mich.
The Hill/Decision Desk HQ's polling index shows the former president trailing Vice President Harris, the Democratic nominee, by just more than 1 point in the Great Lakes State — 48.8 percent to 47.7 percent.
The event is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. EDT.
