US President Donald Trump kicked off a day of campaigning in Michigan with a rain-soaked rally in Lansing.

Most polls show Trump trailing Democrat Joe Biden in a state that Trump won narrowly in his 2016 victory.

Trump told the thousands gathered to hear him that ``seven days from now we're going to win the great state of Michigan.''

With just a week left until Election Day, Joe Biden is making his closing pitch to Americans with a message on unity and a call to rise above division.

Speaking in Warm Springs, Georgia, the Democratic presidential nominee says national divisions have grown under President Donald Trump.

Biden also has offered a hopeful call for healing in the face of the, quote, "lasting wound" the pandemic has left on the US.
