FT LAUDERDALE (CBSMiami/AP) - In an effort to rally support in a key battle ground state, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump will make another stop in Florida this week.

On Wednesday, he hold a rally at the BB&T Center in Sunrise. Doors open at 4 p.m. and the rally gets underway at 7 p.m. Tickets are free and anyone who wants to go can sign up here.

Securing Florida's 29 electoral votes is crucial for the Trump campaign. Last week, the real estate billionaire held additional two rallies in Florida.

Florida Republican consultant Brett Doster said simply of the state "If we don't win here, I just don't see how we win."

Republican pollster Whit Ayres said Trump's problems in Florida go deeper than his lack of advertising and overwhelmingly unpopular standing among Latinos. He said Trump's recent criticism of the Muslim family of a fallen U.S. soldier is not likely to sit well in a state with 22 military installations and more than 1.5 million veterans.
