Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders is holding two campaign rallies in Michigan before the March 10 primary next week.

Sanders’ campaign announced the Vermont senator will attend a March 6 rally in Detroit and Sunday, March 8 rally in Grand Rapids. The events will tally his ninth and 10th visits to Michigan as he attempts to win the state’s primary for again after pulling off a surprise victory in 2016.

The Detroit event is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m. on Friday from TCF Center, with doors opening at 5 p.m.

The Grand Rapids event is scheduled to start at 12:30 p.m. in Calder Plaza, located at 351 Ottawa Ave. NW. Doors open to the public at 11 a.m.

Democratic candidates have begun announcing a series of events across the state with less than a week left before votes are counted in the Michigan primary. Sanders is considered the favorite to win Michigan, but the race quickly became more competitive with the departure of moderate candidates Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar.

U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., held a high-energy rally in Detroit on Tuesday, March 3. She will come back to Michigan for a March 6 rally in Lansing, scheduled to start at 6:30 p.m. at Lansing Community College.

Former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg is planning to visit Michigan on Thursday, March 5. His campaign announced a noon rally at Futuramic Tool and Engineering in Warren, located at 24727 Gibson Dr.

Former Vice President Joe Biden, whose campaign sprung back to life after a strong victory in South Carolina, has not yet announced any stops in Michigan before the primary.
