The November midterm elections are shaping up to be a tense and tight battle for control of Congress after Maine Democrats chose their nominee to face off against vulnerable incumbent Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine).
Former state Senate President Troy Jackson on Saturday formally clinched the Democratic nod to take on Collins, giving the party just 100 days to quickly turn the tides in the must-win race.
Democrats are favored to win the House, but are slight underdogs to win the Senate this fall, according to the latest forecast from Decision Desk HQ.
Meanwhile, the Trump administration is facing a key test in communication as it tries to stop potentially multiple outbreaks tied to the spread of the cyclospora parasite. Michigan specifically is facing a disproportionately large outbreak of cyclosporiasis.
But two months into the health crisis, the outbreak has become a communications nightmare for the administration.
President Trump does not have an event on his Sunday public schedule, but late Saturday he reiterated his push for GOP senators to “terminate the filibuster” in an effort to pass the SAVE America Act “before it’s too late.”
