Trump promised 35 midterm stops, but fell short. Here's where he went

President Donald Trump has been on the campaign trail night after night for the last several weeks in hopes of a Republican victory in the midterms.

Trump laid out his plans at a Rose Garden dinner on Sept. 2 , rallying House Republicans to defy the historical trend that sees the president's party lose ground in the midterms.

"I'm gonna take the final 30 days, maybe a little bit more than that, because it's all about 35 races," Trump said. "I'm going to go to every one of those 35 places, and we're going to see if we can get everyone elected."

Trump did not make it to 35 places, though the blitz was still jam-packed. Today, Trump capped it off with remarks in Washington, D.C., at the site of ongoing controversy: the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.

Here is where Trump did go on his midterm blitz:

Since Trump announced his midterm blitz in September, he has traveled to 31 places for different political rallies, including Dallas for the Republican midterm convention, according to an analysis of his public schedule compiled by Factbase .

The stops were concentrated on a handful of states, many of which Trump won easily in his presidential races. Here is the rundown:

Texas - 4 rallies and the Republican midterm convention ( Denton , San Antonio , Lubbock and Corpus Christi )

Ohio - 3 rallies ( Vandalia , Youngstown and Chillicothe )

Florida - 2 rallies ( Fort Myers and Daytona Beach )

Kansas - 2 rallies ( Park City and Salina )

South Carolina - 2 rallies ( Pendleton and Rock Hill )

North Carolina - 2 rallies ( Gastonia and Greenville )

Georgia - 2 rallies ( Dalton and Perry )

Iowa - 2 rallies ( Sioux City and Dubuque )

Of the Senate races rated as toss-ups by the Cook Political Report, Maine is the only place he did not go, where Republican Sen. Susan Collins is trying to keep her seat in a state that he lost in 2024. He has also called into telerallies for candidates in Virginia, Pennsylvania and more.

"Nobody works harder than President Trump ," said White House spokesperson Liz Huston in response to questions about what states he didn't make it to. "President Trump has been on the road nonstop, traveling across the country to highlight what his administration has delivered for the American people."

The president is scheduled to be at the White House on election night. He already cast his vote in Palm Beach County, Florida .
