Vice President Harris is entering the "negative" phase of the campaign.
With polls exceptionally tight in the seven swing states likely to decide the presidential race, Democratic sources close to the vice president's campaign say Harris is expected to step up her attacks against former President Trump in the final weeks of the campaign.
"They are definitely heightening the contrast," said Democratic strategist Jamal Simmons, who served as Harris's communications director until last year. |

Democrats are refusing to give up on Sen. Jon Tester's (D-Mont.) reelection bid even as his chances appear bleak with just more than two weeks until Election Day. To GOP senators and operatives, the writing has been on the wall for weeks about Tester — and the font has been getting larger by the day. They see little way back for the three-term Democrat in his fight with Republican Tim Sheehy, who leads by 7 percentage points, according to Decision Desk HQ/The Hill's polling average. |

Vice President Harris and former President Trump both have multiple paths to victory in their bids to get 270 electoral votes.
The candidates are zeroing in on the seven key battleground states that will most likely decide which candidate will win the presidency in November. Adding to the stakes of the final weeks, the race is razor-tight in all seven states with neither candidate leading by more than 2 points on average. |

Electric vehicles are emerging as a flashpoint in Michigan's pivotal Senate race.
Republican Mike Rogers has put Democrat Elissa Slotkin on defense, frequently bashing both her and the Biden administration on the issue and trying to tie Slotkin to an "EV mandate."
Meanwhile, Slotkin has sought to toe a fine line — supporting investment in electric vehicles while saying she does not support a mandate that everyone drive them. |

The Harris campaign on Sunday will fan out across battleground states to mark Souls to the Polls, a push centered on reaching Black voters through their churches and religious communities.
Vice President Harris will attend services and deliver remarks at New Birth Missionary Baptist Church in Stonecrest, Ga. She will also attend an event at Divine Faith Ministries International in Jonesboro, Ga. |

Vice President Harris and her allies are making a last-ditch effort to peel off Republican support from former President Trump in the final days of the election. Harris rallied with a number of her prominent Republican supporters in battleground Pennsylvania on Thursday, telling the party's voters "there is a place for you in this campaign." During the same trip Harris took part in her first sit-down interview with Fox News, a cable network with a sizable right-leaning audience. And Republican Voters Against Trump and the FF PAC launched an eight-figure ad buy hitting the former president in key swing states. |

Elon Musk announced he will pay up to $1 million per day to Pennsylvania voters who sign his America PAC petition leading up to Election Day. The petition asks signers to support free speech and the right to bear arms. "One of the challenges we're having is like, well, how do we get people to know about this petition? Because the legacy media is— won't report on it," Musk said at a Saturday event in support of President Trump in Pennsylvania. "You know, not everyone's on X. So, I figure, how do we get people to know about it? Well, this news, I think, is going to really fly." |

Former President Trump took a swipe at Mark Cuban on Saturday, calling the billionaire who has hit the campaign trail for Vice President Harris "weak and pathetic." "Mark Cuban is a Loser. Wouldn't take his phone calls anymore while at the White House, and he went rogue," Trump wrote on Truth Social Saturday afternoon. "A weak and pathetic "bully," he's got nothing going. Really low clubhead speed, a total non-athlete!" |

OPINION | With the presidential election less than one month away, many people are still trying to make sense of why some Latinos support Donald Trump and the Republican Party, who display clear nativist stances. Here are our data-driven answers to this puzzle. For more than 40 years now, Latinos have been steadfast Democrats, with two out of three of them self-identifying with this party and voting for its candidates. What is different today, however, is that many political observers have awakened to the flip side of that reality: that nearly one out of three Latinos genuinely identify as Republicans. In a context of increasing polarization, these political nuances now stand out more sharply than ever. |
OPINION | I shed no tears over the death of Yahya Sinwar, architect of Hamas's brutal Oct. 7, 2023 attack on Israel. Sinwar's vicious leadership of a designated terror organization resulted not only in the barbaric murder of over 1,200 Israelis and the abduction of over 200 Israeli hostages, but also triggered a war that plunged the Middle East into a regional conflict resulting in the death of tens of thousands of Palestinians — innocent pawns in Sinwar's homicidal vision. Sinwar's death is a testament to the enduring bravery of the Israel Defense Forces — a just and necessary conclusion to this human embodiment of evil. |

This year's campaign offers a vivid reminder of how much the playing field in presidential elections has shrunk, giving voters in a handful of states a disproportionate influence in the decision. |
One in five voters in battleground states say they need to learn more about the vice president, a potential liability as Election Day nears. |
