		</div><p>Donald Trump is taking a break from campaigning to formally open his new hotel in Washington DC, leaving his running mate to visit Utah, which has not backed a Democrat for president for 52 years.</p>
<p>The odd travel schedule a dozen days before the November 8 election illustrates a Republican ticket pulled in two directions while Democrat Hillary Clinton surges.</p>
<p>Mr Trump&#8217;s priority appears to be his personal brand and business, while Indiana governor Mike Pence tries to boost the ticket where no Republican should have to.</p>
<p>Mr Trump will visit North Carolina for two campaign rallies later, after spending the morning attending a ribbon cutting at the new 212 million dollar (€194m) hotel that bears his name at Washington&#8217;s Old Post Office Pavilion, not far from the White House.</p>
<p>Mr Pence is also stopping in the swing states of Nevada and Colorado before he heads on Thursday to solidly Republican Nebraska, a state that awards some of its electoral votes by congressional district.</p>
<p>His rally in Omaha may be aimed at shoring up support in the one district that Ms Clinton could win.</p>
<p>Spokesman Marc Lotter said Mr Pence&#8217;s Utah visit is more about favourable logistics than fears that the state could be slipping away. Mr Pence had already planned a Western swing that included a fundraiser in Utah, he said, adding that a rally was easy.</p>
<p>But Mr Trump cannot count on heavily Mormon Utah, last won by a Democrat when President Lyndon B Johnson carried the state in 1964. Many of the state&#8217;s top Republicans urged Mr Trump to abandon the race following the release of a 2005 recording on which the billionaire bragged about sexually accosting women.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s been a boon to independent presidential candidate Evan McMullin, a former CIA agent and graduate of Brigham Young University.</p>
<p>Ms Clinton, meanwhile, is holding two events in Florida, both aimed at encouraging voters in the state to cast an early ballot. It is her 69th birthday, a milestone she celebrated a day early on Univision&#8217;s entertainment news show El Gordo y La Flaca, where she was feted with a bottle of tequila and a large cake featuring her face and the White House.</p>
<p>She made no mention of the news from the Department of Health and Human Services that premiums for insurance under President Barack Obama&#8217;s signature health care law would rise sharply next year.</p>
<p>Spokeswoman Jennifer Palmieri conceded that <i>&#8220;cost controls are a big concern for Hillary Clinton&#8221;.</i></p>
<p>She said the Democratic presidential nominee has a plan to lower insurance costs, <i>&#8220;both through the public option and a Medicare buy-in&#8221;.</i> She warned that Mr Trump&#8217;s plan would strip insurance from roughly 20 million Americans who now benefit.</p>
<p>He did not miss the opportunity to capitalise on the fresh political ammunition, insisting <i>&#8220;Obamacare is just blowing up&#8221; during a series of campaign events on the final day of an extensive three-day swing through Florida.</i></p>
<p><i>&#8220;It&#8217;s killing our businesses. It&#8217;s killing our small businesses,&#8221;</i> Mr Trump said during an evening rally in Tallahassee, without providing evidence for his claims. <i>&#8220;And it&#8217;s killing individuals.&#8221;</i></p>
