MAPPED: The states Trump and top Democrats are targeting before Election Day

With nine days left before the Nov. 3 midterms, leaders of both parties have fanned out across the country to influence which side controls Congress. The outcome will determine how much President Donald Trump can accomplish legislatively during his last two years in office, according to Fox News.

Trump and Vice President JD Vance have been visiting states on the Republican side, with Trump having said in early October that he wanted to hold between five and seven rallies weekly. His most recent run took him to Florida on Friday, Georgia on Saturday and Michigan on Sunday; earlier stops included Texas, Oklahoma and Ohio. Some destinations, such as Oklahoma and Alabama, are solidly Republican, so events there mainly serve to motivate the party's base.

Democrats are sending former President Barack Obama to Ohio and Michigan, while former Vice President Kamala Harris has appeared in Nevada, Mississippi and New Hampshire. Ohio, Texas and Iowa feature competitive Senate races, and Cook Political Report polling put Democratic candidates slightly ahead in each; Michigan is another pivotal Senate contest. The travel record is a snapshot of where each party is trying to turn out voters, not an official ranking of battlegrounds.
