President Donald Trump urged supporters at rallies in Alabama and Ohio to turn out for Republican candidates in the November 3 midterm elections, arguing that the party would outperform expectations despite polling that suggests Democrats could gain ground.
At a Friday rally in Mobile, Trump told a crowd of roughly 8,000 to vote as though he were on the ballot. The Mitchell Center at the University of South Alabama was about 75 percent full when he took the stage, according to the Alabama Reflector. Trump endorsed several Alabama Republicans, including gubernatorial nominee Sen. Tommy Tuberville, Senate nominee Rep. Barry Moore and congressional candidates Jerry Carl and Rhett Marques.
Trump also discussed the war involving Iran, which has contributed to higher fuel prices and a decline in his approval ratings. He said the conflict would end sometime after the midterms and that oil prices would then fall. He also praised the Senate’s bipartisan passage of the Protect College Sports Act.
At a Saturday rally in Vandalia, Ohio, Trump predicted a “big surprise” in the elections and campaigned for Sen. Jon Husted, gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy and other Republicans. Husted faces Democrat Sherrod Brown in a competitive Senate race.
Trump defended the expansion of artificial-intelligence data centers, saying they could bring money to Ohio and otherwise might be built in China. Data centers have drawn opposition over their effects on electricity costs, farmland and water supplies. Husted recently sponsored legislation intended to make large power users pay more, but the measure was blocked by nearly all Senate Democrats.
