LONDON — Princess Kate has made her first public appearance since announcing that she had completed chemotherapy and would be returning to some public duties. Joined by her husband, Prince William, she was seen attending a Sunday service at Crathie Kirk, a church near the family's royal Balmoral estate in Scotland. In early September, Kate released a deeply personal video message saying she had completed treatment for an undisclosed form of cancer that was detected after abdominal surgery earlier in the year. Kate had already appeared in public since she revealed she was undergoing cancer treatment in March, including at Trooping the Colour, an annual military parade to celebrate the birthday of the British monarch. He has also returned to public duties after temporarily stopping most of his engagements following the diagnosis.

Per CNN’s current race ratings, Harris starts at 225 electoral votes to Trump’s 219. A win in Nebraska’s 2nd District would likely give Harris exactly 270 electoral votes when added to Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

Never mind the state’s Republican governor, who also counseled against a campaign visit, called out state troopers to city schools to ease concern about scores of bomb threats.

(The poll was conducted last week, before Sunday’s apparent assassination attempt against Trump.) What makes the Selzer survey so important is that it’s been accurate in an era when other pollsters have struggled. This Selzer poll could also be an outlier, and much could change between now and Election Day. But the current poll is a far better result than the previous Selzer survey from June – when Biden was still in the race. The bottom line: You’d much rather have the Selzer poll in your corner than not.
