MNI POLITICAL RISK- Harris And Trump Eye Final Blue Wall Blitz

Daily round-up of news from the US.

Executive summary:

  • Vice President Kamala Harris will speak at a pair of campaign events in Wisconsin today. Former President Donald Trump will hold rallies in Michigan and Wisconsin. He is also expected to make a stop in Dearborn, Michigan - a town with a large Arab-American population that has been at the centre of Democrat backlash to the Biden administration’s Middle East policy. 
  • President Biden will deliver a speech in Philadelphia about his support for unions that will be closely scrutinised after a series of gaffs that have complicated Harris’ campaign.
  • European Green parties have circulated a letter calling on Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein to withdraw and endorse Harris.
  • Overnight polling shows some good news for Harris in the northern battleground states and good news from Trump in the Sun Belt states, effectively cancelling out any shifts in the outlook of the race.
  • Trends in Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, and Georgia may provide some early clues about the trajectory of the race.
  • Politico published a piece arguing that stock market moves are consistent with a Harris win.
  • Democrats have outspent Republicans in 22 of the 25 toss-up House races.
  • Senate Republicans are confident they have resolved candidate quality problems from the 2022 midterm elections. 
  • Israel is at a 'high level of readiness' for an Iranian retaliation.
  • Poll of the Day: Trump has a clear polling lead in handling key industries.
