US President Donald Trump wrapped up his 2020 election campaign with a rally in Michigan, in an attempt to recreate his iconic 2016 victory in the state. Trump made history in 2016, when he became the first Republican to clinch Michigan since 1988. 

In 2016, Hillary Clinton scheduled
a last-minute rally in Grand Rapids on the last day of polling. This prompted Trump to also a rally there. Ever since, theories of the Michigan rally being a
turning point for Trump’s political career have been doing the rounds.

While many Trump supporters believe that ending his 2020 campaign with a visit to Michigan is his 2020 masterstroke, some opine of it being a superstition.

Melanie Thorwall and her son,
two of the voters waiting since morning with no intension to miss Trump’s campaign
Grand Finale unlike 2016 said, “Is it because he’s superstitious? “I heard he
might be a little of that

Kolleen, one of the attendees
of Trump’s last term rally as well, pointed out how 2016 win could be
attributable to Trumps additional efforts or Democrat Hillary Clinton’s
overconfidence.

“Whether he wins or
loses, this is history, when you come to one of these rallies, all you think
is, how could he not win? 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton
was so sure of winning Michigan that she barely set foot in the state.” AFP quoted
voter Kollen as saying.

Unlike in the southern America,
there is no Michigan County that votes 90 percent Trump.

The electorate is more evenly
divided, more moderate. Between Democratic apathy in the cities and the
over-the-top enthusiasm of suburban and rural Republicans, Trump beat his
opponent by 10,704 votes — just 0.3 percent of the state total.
