Post-Comey, Clinton now appears to be fighting hard in states that once seemed like her firewall.
After campaigning at the Steelers stadium in Pittsburgh with billionaire supporter Mark Cuban, and then her additional rally in Detroit, Clinton was set to fly to Cleveland for a get out the vote concert headlined by Jay-Z before ending the night in Miami.īut it was this stop in between the expected rallies in the most competitive battleground states that raised a red flag. It was Clinton’s second campaign stop on one of her busiest days on the trail since Super Tuesday. Imagine having a president who demeans women and mocks the disabled, who insults African-Americans and Latinos….Everything he has said and done, both in his career and in this campaign, tells you what could happen.” The former secretary of state asked the Detroit crowd to “imagine that my opponent is taking the oath of office. During the final weeks of her race against Sanders last summer, Clinton often prompted voters to “imagine a tomorrow where any young person can graduate from college debt-free,” as well as “imagining” a laundry list of her other policy proposals in action.īut Clinton presented a fun house version of that speech Friday, four days out from Election Day. There, she made her closing argument about the dangers of her opponent, repurposing a segment of her primary stump speech to paint a dark picture of a Trump presidency. The campaign, which has had 35 field offices open across the state for months, also made a six-figure ad buy in Michigan, as well as Colorado, Virginia and New Mexico, other states along their most likely path to victory.Ĭlinton’s rally of about 4,000 supporters Friday evening was made up of a diverse crowd that gathered at Eastern Market, the revitalized commercial core of the depressed city.
