Trump Campaigns in Kansas for Marshall as Senate Race Against Democrat Hamilton Tightens
Photo: The Guardian USPresident Donald Trump campaigned in Kansas on Monday for Republican Senator Roger Marshall, who faces an unexpectedly strong Senate challenge from Democrat Adam Hamilton, with the election next month. Trump gave a 98-minute speech to a crowd chanting "USA." Kansas is a reliably Republican state, and the race is described as close. Early voting also began in Texas. Hamilton, a Methodist pastor, has separately drawn attention for saying that belief in the Virgin Birth is optional for Christians and is insisted upon only in fundamentalism.
Alternative / independent outlets had not reported this story at the time of writing, while left-leaning and right-leaning outlets had. Left-leaning coverage centers on Trump's visit and the tight race. The Guardian US treats the appearance as a sign of Republican trouble, and CBS News gives a brief report pairing it with Texas early voting. Right-leaning Breitbart instead focuses on Hamilton's religious remarks and does not mention Trump's trip in its excerpt. The CBS excerpt gives the Republican candidate a different surname from the Guardian's.
