Trump's once enthusiastic crowds dwindle in election's closing days
Trump has been drawing smaller crowds than normal in the past week, with many attendees leaving while he's still speaking.
In Raleigh, N.C., Monday, the first of his four rallies of the day, there were well over a thousand empty seats and no line to get in.
At his second rally in Reading, Pa., the arena appeared about half full shortly before Trump was scheduled to begin his remarks. The timing of his address was later pushed back an hour.
Trump drew several thousand people at his third event at PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh, but even there, the upper deck was curtained off and some seats were empty.
There have been similar scenes in the past week.
In Macon, Ga., on Sunday, Trump didn't fill the venue he was speaking at, and attendees left throughout his address.
His events in Kingston, N.C., and Lititz, Pa., Sunday likewise only drew a couple of thousand people.
