ST. CLOUD — Former President Donald Trump is coming to St. Cloud this Saturday, exactly two weeks after being shot in the ear during an assassination attempt at another rally.

The St. Cloud rally will take place at 7 p.m. on Saturday at the Herb Brooks National Hockey Center, which is at 1204 4th Ave. S.

Trump's running mate U.S. Sen. J.D. Vance, R-Ohio, will join Trump at the rally.

Why St. Cloud is important this election Trump rally shooting could impact Minnesota politics and St. Cloud is in the center of it

Trump’s visit to St. Cloud comes as the region could decide Minnesota’s political atmosphere. St. Cloud has several key elections this cycle that could flip Minnesota’s House of Representatives, and political experts say Trump’s assassination attempt could bolster turnout among St. Cloud Republicans, possibly helping Republican candidates across the ballot.

General admission tickets are available online.
