NEW YORK CITY—With just nine days to go before the Nov. 5 presidential election, former President Donald Trump is diverting from swing state visits for a hometown rally at Madison Square Garden in the heart of Manhattan.

Bill Robinson, 65, of Asheville, North Carolina, arrived two days beforehand to claim the first spot in line for the sold-out event. Organizers say the venue can accommodate 25,000 attendees. Robinson said he expected it to be “the granddaddy of all Trump rallies.”
