Former President Donald Trump is appearing in his first campaign rally since the assassination attempt at his July 13 event in Butler, Pennsylvania.

The rally in Grand Rapids , Michigan, which starts at 5 p.m., will also be the first in which vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance joins Trump on the stage following his nomination at the Republican National Convention this week.

Reports say there is a heightened local and state police presence at the event, but the crowds waiting to see the former president and his running mate do not appear to be concerned about safety.

Michigan’s 15 Electoral College votes make it a key battleground region for the campaign. Trump won the state in 2016 but lost it to President Joe Biden in 2020.

Recent polls have Trump ahead of Biden by as much as 3 points in a matchup in the key swing state. When compared head-to-head, Trump polls ahead by 5 points against Vice President Kamala Harris .
