Two pollsters are exposed for fabricating midterm data out of thin air. Did they move money, push candidates out of races, or manipulate the prediction markets? Plus, President Trump rallies the faithful in Iowa and tells voters to pretend he’s on the ballot, but is he winning over swing voters or just playing to safe crowds?

Meanwhile, Vivek Ramaswamy’s campaign releases an ad featuring opponent Amy Acton’s estranged mother urging voters to reject her daughter. It immediately ignited a firestorm of controversy.

And with less than two weeks until Election Day, the knives are out over whether the GOP’s midterm money bomb is actually working to defend red states like Kansas, South Carolina, and Texas.
