AllSides Media Bias Rating: Center
With six days to go before Election Day, several Senate races are moving in unexpected directions.
Decision Desk HQ's forecast over the past three weeks have shown Democrats and independents gaining ground in states that usually vote Republican, like Kansas, Nebraska and South Carolina, while Republicans are improving their odds in Iowa, Michigan and Minnesota.
President Donald Trump has campaigned in person in five of the six states this month as he seeks to rally Republicans to get out and vote.
