President Trump Coming to Northern Kentucky This Weekend
Trump’s visit is part of a broader push to lift Republican turnout as Kentucky voters choose a new senator and House member.
On Saturday, October 17, President Donald Trump will hold a "Midterm Rally" in Highland Heights, Kentucky, with remarks scheduled for around 2 p.m.
This stop marks Trump's third trip to the region in recent weeks as part of a nationwide campaign push to support GOP candidates ahead of the midterm elections.
Republican Andy Barr and Democrat Charles Booker are competing to replace retiring Sen. Mitch McConnell, while Ed Gallrein and Melissa Strange seek Kentucky's 4th Congressional District seat.
The Cook Political Report considers both the Senate and 4th Congressional District races "solid Republican," and neither is viewed as a top Democratic target.
Trump's visit comes a little more than two weeks before the November 3 midterm elections, with Kentucky voters able to begin early voting on October 29.
