Story summary

President Donald Trump reversed his decision to cancel campaign rallies in Kansas and Iowa, instead opting to hold them on Sunday, October 30, 2026, just days before the midterm elections. This change came after a reporter questioned him about the cancellations, leading some Democrats to speculate that it was due to health concerns or worries over low turnout at in-person events compared to his tele-rallies. The rallies were seen as crucial for boosting support for Republican Senate candidates Roger Marshall (R-Kan.) and Ashley Hinson (R-Iowa), who face strong Democratic challengers. Early voting was already outpacing previous election cycles, adding urgency to Trump's efforts.

Why this leaning score

This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
