Trump launching rally blitz in final stretch of midterms [View all]

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump is kicking off a final rally blitz with just days to go before midterm elections that will determine whether Republicans retain control of Congress. He'll attend 11 events across eight battlefield states over the next six days.

The final push was set to begin Wednesday night in Estero, just outside Fort Myers, in Florida, where Republican Gov. Rick Scott is challenging Democratic Sen. Bill Nelson for U.S. Senate. Democrat Andrew Gillum and Republican Ron DeSantis are locked in a tight race to replace Scott as governor. Trump's rally lineup also includes a stop in Pensacola, Florida. He has scheduled two rallies each in Indiana and Missouri, plus stops in Tennessee, Georgia, Ohio, Montana and West Virginia.

It is aimed at bolstering Republican turnout and countering Democratic enthusiasm heading into Tuesday's vote.

Former President Barack Obama will also campaign in Florida, appearing Friday for Nelson and Gillum, the Tallahassee mayor.
