Hoping for some luck, Joe? Biden visits only Michigan county to pick last four winners in general election ahead of St. Patrick's Day as he continues tour of swing states that will decide his rematch with Trump

President Joe Biden on Thursday visited the only Michigan county to correctly pick the president in the last four elections, hoping for a little luck ahead of St. Patrick's Day. 

In 2020, Biden won Saginaw County by just 303 votes over now former President Donald Trump, who will be his rival yet again in 2024. 

Biden arrived Thursday afternoon in Saginaw, Michigan after making campaign stops Wednesday in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. 

In both locales, Biden concentrated his efforts on wooing black voters - who could make or break his reelection bid depending on turnout. 

The county also has a large number of union-affiliated voters.  

President Joe Biden met with supporters in the city of Saginaw, Michigan on the porch of the home of a city council member. The city has a high population of black voters, which Biden needs to win reelection in the battleground state

The president was captured hugging a supporter on Ostash's porch during the first of two stops in Saginaw he made Thursday afternoon after campaigning for reelection Wednesday in Milwaukee, Wisconsin 

Earlier Thursday, Biden said in a statement that he was against Japenese company Nippon Steel buying U.S. Steel for $14.9 billion - a deal that the steel unions were vehemently against.  

The president first pulled up to a the home of Bill Ostash, a Saginaw city council member, where he worked a crowd waiting for him on the front porch. 

He could be heard uttering his usual Bidenisms - 'God made man, then man made firefighters,' and retelling the story about his Delaware house fire, telling supporters he almost lost his wife, Corvette and cat, which has been deemed an exaggeration by fact-checkers. 

The pool of reporters who follow the president were moved away from the president after an official said that Biden would take questions. 

Biden also stopped at a public golf course during his afternoon in Saginaw.

He was greeted by Hurley Coleman III - a community leader - and his son Hurley 'HJ' Coleman IV.

'Mr. Coleman was taught to golf by his father as a child because he believed the game teaches discipline, patience, and valuable social skills, and is now passing the game along to his son for the same reasons,' the campaign said. 

'President Biden and the Colemans putted together inside the clubhouse and talked about golf, faith, their family, and their hopes for the future. Both President Biden and HJ sunk their putts,' a statement from the campaign added.

Reporters were not allowed inside the golf club, so were not able to corroborate the campaign's boast about Biden's putting skills.  

The general election campaigns of both Biden and Trump are officially on as they both became their respective parties' presumptive nominees Tuesday night, amassing the amount of delegates needed to clinch the nominations at the conventions this summer. 

Even before that, Biden and Trump were vying for votes in battleground states - as they both traveled to Georgia on Saturday to hold respective ralies - Biden to Atlanta and Trump to Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's district of Rome, Georgia. 

A day before, Biden made a private house call in Pennsylvania and then rallied supporters in Delaware County, located just south of Philadelphia. 

Biden also visited Manchester, New Hampshire - another battleground state - earlier this week. 

Both campaigns expect the 2024 race to be as tight as the last two. 

In 2016, Trump pulled Michigan away from the Democratic column, winning America's high-five over Hillary Clinton by fewer than 11,000 votes. 

That win was, in part, explained by reduced turnout in predominantly black areas like Detroit's Wayne County, where voters came out more forcefully to elect and reelect President Barack Obama in 2008 and 2012. 

But in 2020 Biden improved upon those numbers and defeated Trump in Michigan by 154,000 votes. 

While he didn't make public remarks Thursday, he did make a pitch to black voters specifically in a speech Wednesday in Milwaukee, expressing his disgust in the historic and racist practice of red-lining neighborhoods and having highways cut through majority-minority neighborhoods. 

'But instead of connecting communities, it divided them, these highways actually tore them apart,' the president said.

He touted that his administration was putting money aside to fix problems like bad water systems - such as in Flint, Michigan - and food deserts.  

'Today, we're recognizing that history to make new history. I'm here to announce the first of its kind investment - 3.3 billion, 3.3 billion in 132 in 42 states to help right historic wrongs,' the president committed.
