## Resource

CNN's Harry Enten reports a 20-point negative swing in Trump's approval ratings across all six key Senate battleground states: Alaska, Maine, Iowa, North Carolina, Ohio, and Texas. Polling now shows James Talarico and Ken Paxton neck and neck in Texas, Sherrod Brown pulling ahead in Ohio, Graham Platner consistently ahead of Susan Collins in Maine, and the Alaska race tied.
