Presidential and vice presidential candidates have already doubled their events in Michigan during the 2024 election cycle compared to the 2016 and 2020 elections.

The Harris and Trump campaigns combined to host 46 events in the swing state of Michigan a week before the election, far exceeding the 22 events the state saw in 2016 and the 21 it hosted in 2021.

The 2024 data, which is continually updated by the Associated Press, counts events held in the state by both presidential candidates and their running mates, as well as events where the entire ticket is available for the event. Data for the 2016 and 2020 elections was compiled by Fair Vote and also includes events for both presidential candidates and their running mates.

Former President Trump and Ohio Senator JD Vance have made 26 visits to the state together, while Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz have made 20 visits together.

The visit numbers in Michigan come as the state has emerged as a key battleground in an election that promises to be a close one. According to Monday's Real Clear Politics polling average, Trump has a narrow lead of 0.1 points in the state.

The betting odds for Michigan are almost as high: ElectionBettingOdds.com shows Trump has a 53% chance of winning Michigan, while Harris has a 47% chance. Meanwhile, the Fox News Power Rankings continue to rank Michigan as a problem.

POLITICAL ROCK STARS AND ENTERTAINMENT FAMOUS TAKE THE CAMPAIGN ROAD

Michigan has been one of the most critical swing states in the last three elections, with Trump narrowly winning the state in 2016 by less than half a percentage point. Trump would then give the state to President Biden by less than three percentage points in 2020.

How important the state is and how narrow the electoral margin has been in recent years is reflected in the amount of time candidates spend there. With 22 total visits, Michigan ranked fifth in 2016, behind Florida (71), North Carolina (55), Pennsylvania (54) and Ohio (48).

A similar story played out in 2021, when Michigan was the fourth most visited state, behind Pennsylvania (47), Florida (31) and North Carolina (25).
