FOX 35 caught up with a man outside of the Ocala International Airport. Gene Hubert said that he wanted to be the first person in line to see President Trump. He was also the first in line for a Trump rally in Melbourne in 2017.

He said that he stakes out his spot so he can get a front-row seat for the rally, stating that "we sit here. I do wait for a neighbor. If not, I just play on my phone. I got a cooler with water and Gatorade. Got some cheese sticks, some food. You never know where you're at or located but if you see behind me, we got a Circle K. I can go use the bathroom so I'm set up really well here."

Hubert also said that he made it to the rally in Jacksonville and Sanford earlier this week.

The Supervisor of Elections also said that Marion County is typically red and the President has a large base of supporters in the area.
