President Donald Trump has plans to hold a rally in Rome, Georgia, on Sunday afternoon as he and his campaign make several stops to swing states before Tuesday's election.
According to the Trump/Pence campaign web site, the president is scheduled to speak at 8:30 p.m. at the Rome airport. Doors open to the public at 5:30 p.m.
The Associated Press reported that Trump's Air Force One will be in Rome sometime on Sunday in between trips to Michigan and Florida.
Scotty Hancock - the Floyd County Commission chair - told the Rome News-Tribune that the Republican National Committee is planning to hold the rally at the Richard B. Russell Regional Airport in Rome.
The RNC would rent the airport for $3,000 a day for two days. The plans are fluid as of Friday afternoon. Trump could still visit Saturday, Sunday or Monday, according to reports.
Details about ticket prices, the time of the event and how many people can attend are still being worked out.
The Floyd County Facebook page made a post asking for people who would want to volunteer for the event to email Luke Martin at lam422@gmail.com or Layla Shipman at laylas36@gmail.com.
Joe Biden was in Georgia earlier this week, a surprising visit from a Democratic nominee for president in a state that was known for being a reliably red state. As of now, last-minute candidate visits serve to draw a map of swing states just days away from the Nov. 3 election.
This is a developing story.
