By Deion Scott Hawkins, Emerson College, The ConversationFor most Americans, Jan. 6 was once an ordinary, ho-hum day. That changed in 2021 when millions of television viewers watched thousands of Trump supporters assault the U.S. Capitol in their violent attempt to stop Joe Biden’s presidential victory. Legislators fled for their lives as the mob shattered windows and vandalized congressional offices.

Buried in the prologue of Jordan Peele’s (2019) psychological horror film Us is a commercial for the 1986 fundraiser ‘Hands Across America’. Its conceit was to create a chain of people stretching “from sea to shining sea” across the continental United States to raise money for the hungry. The attempt failed, though it is sometimes claimed that a sufficient number of people participated to succeed, had they formed only one direct line.

With less than two weeks to go until Election Day on Nov. 5, a new batch of polls show the presidential race remains tight in many of the states likely to matter most. The major party nominees, Democrat Kamala Harris and Republican Donald Trump, are making their final arguments to voters in a series of events across the country. They're focusing on key swing states that flipped parties from 2016 to 2020, including Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Georgia.

State fairs. Frozen custard. The jingle for the home-improvement chain Menards. Rolling corn fields, sweatshirts with shorts, steel plant smokestacks and swing-state politics. But also: Chicago's skyscrapers, vibrant immigrant communities and the revival and reimagining of manufacturing hubs. For many, the Midwest can best be defined as a collage of images and feelings.

I’m starting to wonder if the people who are predicting an electoral avalance are right. When was the last time the media actually predicted (and showed polls that support) a very solid lead for a republican? They wont do it. If Trump was up by like 8 in the battleground/swing states, they simply would NOT publish it. They’d sit on it, or skew it. The MSM believes (and it’s probably true) that a big lead for Trump would become a self-fullfilling-prophesy.
