Midterms 2026: Early voting sees big turnout in battleground Senate states as Trump begins final election push
Early voting has already outpaced the last midterm election, while changes to Trump’s campaign schedule caused confusion
CNN
What the coverage shows
The Independent is the only outlet here to frame the story around early voting, saying turnout has already outpaced the last midterm and noting confusion from changes to Trump’s campaign schedule. CNN instead focuses on a final data forecast from Harry Enten for House, Senate and gubernatorial races, while PBS NewsHour and Democracy Now! are both promoting live or special election-night coverage rather than reporting the same news angle.
