MOSINEE - Despite temperatures that dipped into the 20s, Jennifer Hunter wanted to get to the airport 24 hours before President Donald Trump.
The 38-year-old Stevens Point resident was the first in line at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, looking forward to supporting Trump, whose rally at Central Wisconsin Airport in Mosinee was scheduled to start at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday.
"It's a once in a lifetime opportunity to have the president come to your hometown," Hunter said. "I've had to travel for other rallies."

Trump planned his visit to central Wisconsin in support of Republicans running in the midterm elections. Hundreds had lined up by 8:15 a.m. Wednesday, donning the trademark red "Make America Great Again" hats and bundling up in winter coats. Vendors lined the paths that supporters took from their cars to the line, which already extended several hundred feet.

Trump won Wisconsin during the 2016 presidential election after making several appearances in the state, including a pre-primary stop in Rothschild, about 15 minutes from the airport.
