NILES, Ohio — President Donald Trump’s daughter and close advisor, Ivanka Trump, will return to Ohio on Saturday, Oct. 31 to campaign in Niles, according to a Trump campaign spokesperson.

The visit, to headline a “Make America Great Again!” event, comes less than one week before Election Day and follows a trip she made to Cincinnati earlier in October.

A location and time for the event was not yet available, according to the campaign spokesperson.

“I'm excited to be back in the Buckeye State to discuss how President Trump has delivered for hard working Ohioans,” Trump said in a statement provided by her father’s campaign. “My father has renegotiated unfair trade deals, advocated for school choice, fought against the scourge of human trafficking, increased access to affordable child care and cut taxes for hard working families. The people of Ohio have a fighter in President Trump, and he will continue to fight for them for four more years.”

In 2016, Trump won over many longtime Democrats in Northeast Ohio with his talk about manufacturing and trade. In the years since, the storied General Motors plant in Lordstown closed and the Mahoning Valley has been trying to determine its economic future.

Niles is the hometown of Congressman Tim Ryan (D, 13th Congressional District), the Democrat who has represented the region since 2003. Ryan unsuccessfully ran for president in 2019 with a message squarely focused on what he called Trump’s failures in the Mahoning Valley.

This year, as Ryan runs to keep his U.S. House seat, he’s facing one of his toughest challenges yet against Republican Christina Hagan, a former state representative who is running a Trump-inspired campaign.

A spokesperson for the Trump campaign did not know if Hagan would be joining Ivanka at Saturday’s event in Niles.

After winning Ohio by eight points in 2016, the Trump campaign has approached the state in a mixed way this cycle.

The president, Vice President Mike Pence and other campaign higher-ups have visited Ohio as Election Day nears, but earlier this week, the Trump campaign announced in a call with reporters that Akron native and longtime Ohio political consultant Bob Paduchik, who ran the Trump campaign in Ohio in 2016, was shifting his focus to neighboring Pennsylvania in the final stretch of the 2020 race.
