A left-leaning article by The New York Times highlights that Biden’s speculation that President Trump may try to delay or disrupt the election in some way sends a warning signal that attempts to frame the president as desperate. Biden’s remarks also come as a number of polls have shown that many Americans disapprove of the president’s stewardship of the crisis and that he badly trails the nation’s governors in terms of who Americans trust most for guidance.
USA Today published a centrist article reporting that the date of the election is set in federal law, and that Congress sets the “times, places, and manner” of elections.

A right-leaning article by Fox News highlights that Joe Biden’s presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee officially reached an agreement to begin joint fundraising as they aim to oust President Trump from the White House.
