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.
