Florida will be the site of two tightly contested and important midterm elections on Tuesday, so President Donald Trump is traveling to the Florida panhandle for another one of his “Make America Great Again” rallies. Trump will speak at the airport in Pensacola, Florida, on Saturday, likely in support of Republican candidates Ron DeSantis and Rick Scott.
As always, the event can be viewed online. Americans will vote in gubernatorial and congressional elections next week.
Where, When To Watch President Trump’s Pensacola, Florida, Rally:
Date: Saturday, Nov. 3, 2018
Time: 6:30 p.m. CDT
Place: Pensacola International Airport, Pensacola, Florida
This will be Trump’s second Florida stop on his rally tour this week, as he spent Halloween stumping for Scott and DeSantis in Estero, Florida, according to the Pensacola News Journal. Scott is the incumbent governor of Florida but is barred from holding office after his current term due to term limits. He is running against Democrat Bill Nelson, who currently holds a Florida Senate seat.
Though Nelson is the incumbent, he does not have an overwhelming lead over the soon-to-be-former governor. Polling data collected by RealClearPolitics gives Nelson a consistent, but narrow, lead of just a few points on average.
DeSantis, meanwhile, is locked in a tight gubernatorial race against Democrat Andrew Gillum. His progressive challenger is in favor of debt-free college and Medicare for all. Like the Florida senate race, polling data has the two candidates in a fairly tight race. RealClearPolitics gives Gillum leads of anywhere from one to six points.
