Election guru Nate Silver makes his final midterm elections prediction… giving the GOP a glimmer of hope: Live updates

A mysterious Democrat operative who has worked behind the scenes on a slew of campaigns is in the spotlight after allegations surfaced about a scheme to spoil the Alaska Senate race.

The race has become a key one to watch this midterm cycle, as Democrat Mary Peltola hopes to flip a seat and oust incumbent Republican Dan Sullivan.

Eyebrows were raised earlier this year when another Dan Sullivan appeared on the ballot, seemingly plucked from obscurity.

Less than a week before Election Day, an investigation revealed that the coincidence was more likely a careful plot meant to confuse voters and spoil the election in Peltola’s favor.

A recent investigation named Jerid Kurtz as the go-between who seemingly recruited candidates, including the ‘second’ Sullivan to run for Senate.

The federal government was ordered to pull three taxpayer-funded Trump administration ads.

A judge ruled Friday that the ads appear to include political or propaganda purposes – including one ad which claims that every American adult will get $5,000 if Republicans win both houses of Congress on November 3.

President Donald Trump was forced to halt a pre-midterms campaign rally in Daytona Beach, Florida, on Friday to wipe his eye as he struggled to keep it open, just days before voters head to the polls.

Trump paused to wipe his eye with a napkin he dipped in a cup of water about halfway through the event, briefly interrupting his remarks to supporters ahead of Tuesday’s midterm elections.
