I was going on the assumption that someone from the GOP or Russia would try to give it to Biden anyway, so at least Trump might also get it.

Yep. They put her in quarantine last night on AF1.

@JenniferJJacobs
Scoop: No indication Trump has contracted coronvirus, but inner circle aide Hope Hicks has it, and is experiencing symptoms of the disease. She was in close proximity to him, maskless, in recent days. She was quarantined on AF1 on trip back from Minnesota.

McConnells PAC is spending 7.2 million in Kansas after dropping be over 5 million in early September. They must think they're in deep trouble.

Still think GOP will keep Kansas, but Ernst is in huge trouble in Iowa

This is obviously pretty anecdotal but just since the debate I have talked to a few friends that had conversations with family/neighbors/friends. 6 or 7 different stories of conversations they had where people went from undecided/3rd party to Biden or trump to 3rd party.

Truly do not understand how that is possible, but it seems to be actually happening. All PA voters outside of one who lives in GA. Keep talking to people, pals.

Greenfield is up 12 over Ernst in a poll released today by one of the Des Moines news channels. That seems high but the margin of error is +/- 4. I'm seeing and hearing things around here that give me optimism for both Senate and president but the NW Iowa evangelicals will have a big say in it.

I try to have optimism about the people of Iowa, but then I remember Ames keeps electing Steve King

Curious to know what the rapid test results were.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Trump says he and first lady are awaiting coronavirus test results after top aide confirmed positive for COVID-19.

Takes like 3 to 5 days to develop before you can even test with any confidence.

Yeah, a negative test doesn't mean a lot.
