Kansas, Maine Senate races neck and neck: CNN poll
Democrats have narrow leads in two key Senate contests with just a few days until the election, new polls show. New surveys conducted by CNN/SSRS released Thursday found Democrats ahead in the Kansas and Maine Senate races, though both leads are in the margin of error.
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.
