Trump has seen a surge in popularity in Michigan in the final days of the election.
The latest polls show Trump winning the Great Lakes State with 48.5 percent of likely voters compared to 46.8 for Hillary Clinton. (RELATED: Trump Holds Election Eve Lead Over Hillary In Michigan)
Trump and his surrogates have campaigned heavily in Michigan over the past week, including a Monday night rally in Grand Rapids, his final rally of the 2016 race. President Obama also campaigned for Clinton in Ann Arbor on Monday.

Though he held less than a two point lead going into election day, the Republican nominee trailed the former secretary of state by as much as five points at the beginning of November.
Michigan, traditionally a Democratic stronghold, holds 16 electoral votes and would prove a major win for the Trump campaign.
