Trump touts Washington makeover as midterm campaign nears end
Meanwhile, Democrats sought to contain a rift in Michigan's closely fought U.S. Senate race.
U.S. President Donald Trump utilized his final public remarks before the midterm elections to highlight renovations at the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, while Democrats sought to bridge a division in Michigan's closely contested U.S. Senate race. Over the weekend, Rep. Haley Stevens, a former Democratic Senate candidate who lost the primary to Abdul El-Sayed, backed Republican Mike Rogers and campaigned alongside him in Detroit.
The Senate race is crucial for Democrats to regain their 53-47 majority against Trump's Republicans in Tuesday's vote. During his sole public appearance on Monday, Trump, a former real estate mogul, spent over 20 minutes detailing the Lincoln Pool's restoration, touching on topics such as pipes, joints, caulking, granite resurfacing, algae, and leaks.
