Trump Plans An 11:30 P.M. Sunday Rally In Miami, Likely Violating Curfew

Topline

President Donald Trump plans to hold a rally in Miami-Dade County at 11:30 p.m. Sunday night, as the president continues to ramp up his last-minute blitz ahead of the election—even though there’s evidence they may be hurting his chances—but the event could end up violating Miami-Dade’s midnight curfew.

Key Facts

Trump is ramping up his efforts to get his base out to vote on Election Day, as early voting statistics show encouraging numbers for Democrats while Trump trails Democratic nominee Joe Biden in almost all major polls. His campaign plans to make stops in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Iowa, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida and Wisconsin for rallies ahead of Election Day.
