Trump in North Carolina

Trump has visited North Carolina at least seven times since late July.

Some notable stops: The former president spoke to thousands of supporters during a rally at Bojangles Coliseum in July. A little over a month ago, he spoke to the National Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) in Charlotte. About three weeks ago he was in Mint Hill.

The latest Charlotte-area appearance comes just three weeks before Election Day and in a state crucial to his bid to retake the White House.
