In the last days of the 2016 Presidential election cycle, Republican candidate Donald Trump and Gov. Sarah Palin have succeeded in turning the normally "safely Democratic" state into a "solidly Republican" one by conducting a series of high-energy rallies across the state.

More than 700 people showed up to listen to Palin share Trump's campaign to "Make America Great Again," telling a crowd in Alpena Michigan how the Republican candidate wanted to revitalize industry in the state. "Donald Trump is successful, and he wants you to be successful too," Palin said in a fiery 20 minute speech.

Former Marine Corps Gen. Jack Bergman, Republican candidate for Michigan's 1st congressional district took the stage with Gov. Palin to reveal his motivation for running: "My grandchildren said, 'Poppa, you need to step up one more time.'"

The latest polls indicate that Michigan will cast its 16 electoral votes for a Republican presidential candidate for the first time since George H. W. Bush took the state to become President in 1988.

Ummm... 700 people at a rally does not equal changing the state's voting demographic from solidly (D) to solidly (R).

You are getting frantic. Maybe you should stop for a minute and take a few deep breaths. Let your blood pressure return to normal. Kiss your wife and pet the family dog, or pet your wife and kiss the dog.

Just chill out.

700.. really?   I mean, there's usually that at like... a HS Basketball game here.

As much as I'd love Trump to win Michigan... I just don't see it happening, unless the Unions come out full on for Trump, which they have not done.  Union idiots walk the line w/ what their handlers tell them to do, all the while not understanding they are hurting themselves

Alpena's population is around 10,000, so 700 is not a bad percentage of the adult population.
