MNI POLITICAL RISK - Trump Rhetoric Could Boost Harris In PA

Daily round-up of news from the US.

Executive summary:

  • Vice President Kamala Harris is on a tour of Michigan today touting her manufacturing agenda. She will visit a semiconductor facility in Saginaw before heading to Ann Arbour for a rally. Former President Donald Trump will hold a rally in Atlanta, Georgia.
  • Polling remains deadlocked in battleground states but Harris' lead in the national vote has shrunk to one point in the NYT polling average, her smallest lead since mid-August.
  • Washington insiders believe the 2024 presidential election will be determined within one week of Election Day.
  • Trump announced yesterday that he would support a tax credit for family members who act as carers. A policy that appears cribbed off a Harris proposal from earlier this month.
  • A Trump rally at Madison Square Garden that displayed some of the more extreme rhetoric of Trump’s base could have political implications in a key swing state.
  • Senior Democrats are hopeful that three economic data releases this week can offer a final argument for Harris to sway voters on the economy.
  • Israel conducted a series of limited strikes on Saturday on military targets in Iran on Saturday, supporting reporting from last week suggesting that Israel and the US had reached a quiet understanding that Israel would avoid targeting Iran’s energy and nuclear infrastructure.
  • Poll of the Day: Democrat Rep Colin Allred appears to have momentum in the crucial Texas Senate race.
