Update: Gapp has fallen into third place as pharmacist Diana Harshbarger, who has aired ads attacking China over COVID-19 but whose husband pleaded guilty to mislabeling Chinese pharmaceuticals in 2013, takes the lead. #TN01 — PolitiTweet.org

It's very early, but the current vote leader in #TN01's 16-way GOP primary is stridently pro-Trump physician Josh Gapp, who grew up in North Dakota and doesn't even live in the district (he lives to the west in Knoxville). — PolitiTweet.org

You could actually make the case Biden's religion (he'd be only the 2nd Catholic president) is an underrated advantage, considering some of Trump's biggest '16 breakthroughs came in working-class counties w/ lots of Irish/Italian ancestry. — PolitiTweet.org

With everything else going on, it's easy to forget a big reason we're in a much different place than we were in '16: Hillary Clinton fav/unfav (8/6/16 RCP): 43/53 (-10) Joe Biden fav/unfav (8/6/20 RCP): 45/46 (-1) — PolitiTweet.org

@StuPolitics This seems like a cheap shot. Even if it is tied, in recent years races have more often than not moved towards the fundamentals of states closer to Election Day. It’s a defensible view. — PolitiTweet.org

Rural Missouri voted overwhelmingly against the amendment; "Yes" did slightly better there than McCaskill did in 2018, but not by that much. The big story tonight is MO's middle/upper income suburbs, where there was a huge shift to "Yes" from 2016/2018 margins. — PolitiTweet.org
