MINT HILL, N.C. — Former President Donald Trump traveled to Mint Hill Wednesday for a campaign event.
The event was smaller than what many are used to seeing. It was held at the Mosack Group facility, a manufacturing plant in Mint Hill.

By noon, Channel 9′s Hunter Sáenz could see the stage was being set for Trump’s appearance an hour later.
It was Trump’s sixth visit to North Carolina this election season and his second one in less than a week. He was in Wilmington on Saturday, where he didn’t say a word about the scandal surrounding Republican North Carolina gubernatorial candidate Mark Robinson.
The visit came as the polls are razor-thin for the presidential race in the Tar Heel State. The latest Elon University poll out Tuesday shows Vice President Kamala Harris leading Trump 46% to 45%, but that is well within the margin of error.
The poll was conducted before Lt. Gov. Robinson’s scandal.
Trump and his team know how crucial North Carolina is.
>> Sáenz was there for Trump’s speech and will share an update on Eyewitness News starting at 5 p.m.
