Michigan could be in play for Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, GOP pollster Frank Luntz said Tuesday.

“Watch Michigan. Working-class turnout is looking much higher than expected. Trump may actually have a chance,” Luntz tweeted.

{mosads}Michigan hasn’t chosen a Republican for president since 1988, but Trump has visited there frequently in hopes of flipping the state.

Trump wrapped up his final campaign rally of the season in Michigan early Tuesday morning, warning that working-class voters would “strike back” at the ballot box.

“Michigan stands at the crossroads of history,” Trump said.

“If we win Michigan, we will win this historic election and then we will truly be able to do all of the things we want to do.”

The RealClearPolitics average of polling in the state gives Clinton a 4-point lead over Trump, 47 percent to 43 percent.
