Democrats hope to use former President Barack Obama more than they have as they enter the final stretch. 

Obama is scheduled to come to Detroit on Oct. 22 to help Vice President Kamala Harris who is locked in a tight battle with former President Donald Trump in Michigan and other swing states. 

Obama's visit will be part of his campaign in swing states.  

Both sides have been blitzing Michigan on a regular basis.

Former President Donald Trump spoke Thursday at the Detroit Economic Club. Two days before, his running mate, J.D. Vance spoke at Eastern Market in Detroit.

Meanwhile, Harris is scheduled to come to Detroit Tuesday for a townhall setting. Her running mate Tim Walz was in Macomb County on Friday.
