Donald Trump Baton Rouge, Louisiana Rally Live Stream: Watch President-Elect's Speech Online

President-elect Donald Trump is set to appear at a rally Friday in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, aimed at getting out the vote for Republican John Kennedy, a state treasurer who is up for Senate seat in a runoff election the next day. The event is also likely to feel a lot like a pit stop on Trump's "Thank You" tour, during which he's hosting rallies across the nation in states he won during the presidential election.

While it's largely expected Kennedy will cruise to a victory over his Democratic opponent, Foster Campbell, Trump's endorsement is still a valuable political asset in Louisiana. He won 58.1 percent of the state's vote in the presidential election on his way to earning its eight electoral votes, according to a Cook Political Report analysis. Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton won just 38.4 percent of the vote in the state.

Trump had thrown his support behind Kennedy last week after posting on Twitter: "State Treasurer John Kennedy is my choice for US Senator from Louisiana."

Kennedy has tied himself to Trump, even running ads using the president-elect's slogan that he would "drain the swamp," reported the New Orleans Times-Picayune. Kennedy has fashioned himself in the image of Trump, whom he described as a "change agent."

"What ought to be sobering to all of us is people expect change," Kennedy said Trump's victory, according to the Times-Picayune. "And Washington better deliver now."

Local Louisiana news stations have reported the rally in Baton Rouge Friday begins at noon local time, or 11 a.m. EST, while Trump's website lists that it starts at 10 a.m. Trump has typically shown up a bit late for these events, so for folks intending to watch him deliver his remarks, it's likely best to tune in starting at about 10 or 10:30 a.m. EST.

Amid the frenetic work of planning an administration, Trump rallies began last week in Ohio and continued into Tuesday with a stop in Fayetteville, North Carolina, with Trump officially announcing retired Gen. James Mattis would be his nominee for secretary of defense. While Trump seemed to strike a less volatile tone, he did at times revert to boastful rhetoric when describing his election victory.

"We don't talk about numbers, we bring people together, but boy, were those numbers good," Trump said.
