Daniel None to report. No lead changes anywhere on the board, and we're eight days out from the election.

Maya Let's look at a race we haven't touched today — Kansas.

Maya 0.1 points, Daniel — that's a race we're watching, within 1 point with 13 polls already in.

Daniel It really is, Maya — thirteen polls in, and Marshall's lead is still just 0.1 points.

Maya Thirteen polls and just 0.1 points apart, Daniel — a margin worth keeping an eye on.
