#Regram #RG @politico: Early voting started in eight states and Washington, D.C., today with Election Day just 15 days away. A poll worker pictured above opened a voting station in Miami-Dade County, Florida, where voters will cast ballots in two key races with national implications: the Senate battle between Sen. Bill Nelson and GOP challenger Gov. Rick Scott, and the gubernatorial race between Republican Ron DeSantis and Dem Andrew Gillum. Meanwhile, as it looks increasingly possible that Democrats could take back the House, President Trump is privately distancing himself from a Republican thumping on election day, sources say. And over in the Senate, Democrats have shifted their strategy from winning the upper chamber, to limiting their losses.
