Swing states seeing a surge in cases as early voting rolls on
Kevin Breuninger



Coronavirus cases are spiking in the most fiercely contested battlegrounds
of the presidential election, just as voters cast their ballots in droves.

The latest wave of cases appears to be crashing hardest over states in the
West and the Midwest, data show.

Among the most hotly contested swing states, Wisconsin is facing the largest
increase in cases and deaths. In the past week, the Badger State reported
a proportionally higher number of cases than nearly anywhere else in the
country, except for in North Dakota and South Dakota, according to the CDC.

Other swing states, including Michigan and North Carolina, are also seeing
an upswing in cases.

Fewer voters remain undecided than at this point in the 2016 cycle. But the
recent surge in cases might be enough to push some of those swing-state
voters toward Biden, who has consistently received higher marks than Trump
in polls on the question of which candidate would better handle the pandemic.
