LANSING (AP) — Former President Donald Trump is urging Republican leaders in Michigan to target Black voters in the swing state.
Trump met with Michigan GOP chair Pete Hoekstra last Tuesday in Florida to strategize his reelection bid and keyed in on “nontraditional Republican voters," according to Hoekstra.
President Joe Biden's reelection bid has faced pushback from large groups of minority voters, particularly over his handling of the Israel-Hamas war.
Biden reclaimed Michigan for Democrats in 2020 and the state is widely seen as critical to both candidates’ chances in November.
GOP chairs in two of Michigan’s largest counties, Oakland’s Vance Patrick and Macomb’s Mark Forton, met with senior Trump adviser James Blair in a separate meeting to discuss strategy in metro Detroit.
