Republican presidential candidate Senator John McCain looks on as his vice presidential running mate Alaska Governor Sarah Palin speaks at a campaign event in Dayton
Republican Presidential Nominee John McCain and his running mate, Sarah Palin campaign in Grand Rapids today.
This is McCain and Palin's second trip to Michigan since the Republican National Convention.
Today's event will take place at the 35 hundred seat Ford Fieldhouse at Grand Rapids Community College. Tickets to the town hall style event went quickly Monday.
This will be the first chance Michigan voters will be able to ask questions of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. The choice of Palin has given a big boost to the McCain campaign. The latest national polls show McCain holding a narrow lead over his Democratic opponent. Barack Obama still leads McCain in polls of Michigan voters. © Copyright 2009, Michigan Radio
