WASHINGTON (NewsNation) — Former President Donald Trump spoke in Michigan and Wisconsin on Thursday after new polling shows Vice President Kamala Harris and Tim Walz closing the gap in key battleground states.

Trump’s intense focus on recapturing states he won in 2016 but lost narrowly in 2020 continues with stops in the middle of Michigan and western Wisconsin.

Trump’s day starts with an afternoon rally in Potterville, Michigan, near the state capital of Lansing. Trump won Eaton County, where part of Lansing is located, in both 2016 and 2020, but by a smaller margin the second time.

Later, he’ll visit La Crosse, Wisconsin, for a town hall moderated by former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, who endorsed him in Detroit. It will be Trump’s first visit to Wisconsin since the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.

When it comes to supporting former President Donald Trump, swing-state voters are divided on the impact of the conservative blueprint known as Project 2025, according to a new Emerson College Polling/The Hill survey.

Voters in seven key battleground states were asked if Project 2025 makes them more or less likely to support Trump. Overall, a plurality in all states said it makes no difference or they weren’t familiar with the plan.

However, nearly just as many respondents in each state said the conservative roadmap made them less likely to support the former president.

The survey polled voters in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
