Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton will campaign Monday in Detroit — one day before Michigan’s voter registration deadline — in her first visit to the state since Aug. 11.
The Clinton campaign announced the event Thursday morning and said in a press release that more details on the location and time would be announced later.
Clinton is expected to emphasize the importance of registering to vote as well as discuss her economic vision for the United States and its impact on Michigan, according to the release.
The campaign stop will come one day after the second presidential debate at Washington University in St. Louis.
Clinton’s surrogates have had a heavy presence in the state and at the University of Michigan over the past few weeks. Former primary challenger U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I–Vt.) visited campus Thursday to campaign on Clinton’s behalf, and Democratic vice-presidential nominee Tim Kaine also made a campaign stop at the University on Sept. 13.
As well, former President Bill Clinton campaigned Monday in Flint, following Chelsea Clinton’s visits to Flint on Sept. 23 and Michigan State University on Sept. 22.
Clinton’s opponent, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, has also had a substantial presence in the state in an attempt to turn it Republican for the first time since the 1988 presidential election. Trump has visited the state five times since the Republican convention, most recently in Novi earlier this week.
Clinton currently leads Trump by a margin of 6.8 percent in Michigan, according to a polling average by RealClearPolitics.
