In his final campaign stop before the 2024 Election Day, former President Donald Trump urged his supporters in North Carolina to turn out in full force and help secure his return to the White House. Speaking in Raleigh on the eve of the election, Trump highlighted his lead in recent polls and called for an overwhelming voter turnout to ensure victory.
“Hopefully everything will work out well, we’re way leading, all we have to do is close it out,” Trump said. “If we get everybody out and vote, there’s not a thing they can do.”
Trump Rallies Voters to “Close Out” the Race
Addressing a crowd energized by his message, Trump emphasized the importance of turnout in battleground states like North Carolina. The state, crucial in Trump’s 2020 campaign, is once again a key player in this election. Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr., also took the stage, urging early voters to mobilize their friends and family to cast their ballots.
“Get in line, bring your friends, stay in line,” Trump Jr. said, as he called on supporters to do everything they can to ensure Trump’s victory.
Trump’s North Carolina rally is part of a broader final push across battleground states. As he continues his tour, Trump is expected to make appearances in Pennsylvania and Michigan before the polls close.
JD Vance Rallies Wisconsin Voters
Meanwhile, Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance rallied voters in Wisconsin, urging them to turn out in large numbers on Election Day. Vance called for a final push in the battleground state, emphasizing that “tomorrow is our last chance” to vote for change and prosperity under Trump.
“We’re going to win this thing,” Vance said, expressing confidence in their campaign’s chances. “We’re going to vote for Donald J. Trump.”
Key Figures and Closing Messages
As Trump delivered his closing remarks in North Carolina, several key campaign figures were in attendance, including Alina Habba, Donald Trump Jr., Susie Wiles, and Eric Trump. Prominent GOP figures such as Marco Rubio and Sarah Huckabee Sanders were expected to speak but did not take the stage before Trump’s address.
Trump’s final campaign events have seen him ramp up his rhetoric, invoking claims about his 2020 election loss and reiterating his belief that he “shouldn’t have left” the White House. In contrast, Vice President Kamala Harris, who is campaigning for the Democratic ticket, focused her closing message on moving past “politics driven by fear and division” without directly mentioning Trump.
All Eyes on Battleground States
With Election Day just hours away, both campaigns are zeroing in on key battleground states that will determine the outcome of the race. Harris spent her final day campaigning in Pennsylvania, while Trump made his last stand in North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Michigan. These states, critical to the outcome in both the 2016 and 2020 elections, are expected to play a decisive role again in 2024.
As voters prepare to head to the polls, turnout in these battleground regions could swing the election. Trump’s rally in North Carolina underscores his determination to rally his base and secure his return to the presidency.
Final Call to Voters
As Election Day arrives, both campaigns are making their last appeals to voters. Trump’s final message to his supporters remains clear: “Get out and vote.” His rally in North Carolina is just one of several events aimed at energizing his base and ensuring a strong turnout in key states.
For those still deciding, voter resources and candidate guides are available to help navigate the final hours before the polls close. With key battleground states hanging in the balance, the 2024 election is set to be another tight race, and every vote will count in deciding the future of the White House.
