Trump to Rally for Bevin at Rupp Arena

President Donald Trump's campaign says the president will headline a Kentucky rally on Nov. 4 - the day before the state's voters decide whether to give Trump ally Matt Bevin another term as governor.

The campaign said that the evening rally will be at Rupp Arena in Lexington.

A release doesn't mention Bevin, who is locked in a tough campaign against Democratic Attorney General Andy Beshear. The Republican governor has aligned himself with Trump, who easily carried Kentucky in winning the presidency in 2016 and remains popular there.

Bevin says his connections with the president are beneficial to Kentucky, while also touting new jobs and business investments, record per-pupil education spending, and $100 billion in exports during his first term.  

Beshear has focused on Bevin's feud with education groups in his bid to win in the Bluegrass, which has voted red in recent years.
