Story summary

President Donald Trump held campaign rallies in Iowa and Kansas on Sunday, November 1, reversing his earlier decision to cancel these events due to criticism from a reporter. The cancellations had sparked speculation about the Republican candidates' chances in the two states, where Democratic challengers are polling strongly against Senators Roger Marshall (R-Kan.) and Ashley Hinson (R-Iowa). Trump's rallies were part of his final push before the November 3 midterm elections, aimed at boosting support for Republicans facing challenges to their majority in Congress.
