Donald Trump, anxious for a win in Pennsylvania, to hold rally in Erie

Sept 29: Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump will hold a rally in Pennsylvania on Sunday, his fourth campaign stop in a month in what has become arguably the 2024 campaign's most hotly contested state.
The former president is due to speak in Erie, in Pennsylvania's northwest corner, at 2 p.m. local time (1800 GMT). His rally comes one month to the day after his running mate, U.S. Senator JD Vance, held his own event in the lakeside city, and six days before Trump is due to hold another rally in western Pennsylvania, on Oct. 5. Many allies and informal advisers to Trump privately characterize Pennsylvania as the most important of the battleground states in the Nov. 5 election. —REUTERS
