The race for the White House is heating up in Michigan as the state's primary looms on March 10.
Before Michiganders have their chance to vote, however, the focus will be on the 14 states voting on March 3—Super Tuesday. This is the election day in the presidential primary season when the most number of states are voting.
Candidates, however, are shifting their focus to Michigan, which is set to be a contentious fight for votes in both the primary and general elections.
Two candidates so far have announced they will be making campaign stops on Super Tuesday, a week prior to Michigan's election day. Plus, Mike Bloomberg announced a stop later in the week.
All three events will be on the east side of the state:
- Tulsi Gabbard is having a Detroit town hall at The Eastern Tuesday at 7 p.m.
- Elizabeth Warren is hosting an event as Eastern Market in Detroit Tuesday at 7:15 p.m.
- Mike Bloomberg will be in Macomb County on Thursday. Additional details have not been released.
Former candidate Pete Buttigieg had a town hall planning in Macomb County on Tuesday, but he has since dropped out of the race. In West Michigan, Bernie Sanders and Pete Buttigieg campaigns had volunteers canvassing across the region over the weekend.
The 2020 Michigan presidential primary is on March 10. Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.
There are still seven Democrats competing for the nomination. President Donald Trump has one Republican challenger who is still on the primary ballot.
