The American Postal Workers Union is launching a national TV ad campaign promoting voting by mail. This comes as President Donald Trump has raised skepticism about mail-in ballots. He recently signed an executive order to put the Postal Service in the middle of election administration. The 30-second union ad features voters explaining why they vote by mail and will start airing in Ohio this week. The ad encourages voting by mail to be protected and expanded. Union President Jonathan Smith says postal workers should not be responsible for verifying voter eligibility, as would be required under Trump's order.

Former Vice President Kamala Harris says she's actively considering another presidential bid. She made the comments on Friday during the National Action Network's annual convention, where more than a half-dozen Democratic 2028 presidential prospects appeared hoping to make inroads among Black voters. Host Al Sharpton asked Harris directly if she was gong to run again for president in 2028. Harris responded, "I might. I'm thinking about it." The Democrats' next presidential primary season won't really begin until after November's midterm elections, but this week's conference is showcasing a collection of Democrats already jockeying for position in what should be a crowded competition. Harris drew a standing ovation and the largest crowd of any other 2028 prospect at this week's convention.

Republicans have had some setbacks this election year, with recent Democratic wins Wisconsin and Georgia. According to Tom Tiffany, a congressman running for governor in Wisconsin, Republicans got their "butts kicked" Tuesday in races for the state Supreme Court and the mayor's office in a Milwaukee suburb. In Georgia, the Republican candidate won by a slimmer margin than expected in a congressional election. These results suggest Democratic momentum heading into November. Some Republicans argue there's no need to panic even as they raise concerns about Democrats gaining ground.
