Trump campaigns in South Carolina as Senate race is surprisingly close
The critical Senate race in South Carolina is closer than expected, and President Trump stopped there with six days to go until the midterms. Weijia Jiang has more.
What the coverage shows
The New York Times is the only outlet to foreground the data center industry’s backing and the new super PAC, while most others frame the story as a tightening South Carolina Senate race or a Trump campaign stop. The Hill, PBS NewsHour, AP, CBS News and Fox News all center live coverage of Trump in South Carolina, and Fox News also separately highlights broader Republican concern. The Guardian’s extracts are the only ones that explicitly describe the race as tied in polling, while Newsweek and Vox shift away from South Carolina to wider Republican and Texas Senate coverage.
