• Barrasso is barnstorming: Sen. John Barrasso (R., Wyo.), who is running unopposed to be the Senate GOP’s Whip next year, campaigned in 11 states for Senate GOP candidates, his team told us.

• To BEAD or not to BEAD: April McClain Delaney, a Democratic House candidate, is under fire in a closer-than-expected race in Maryland, in part due to her ties to the Biden administration’s controversial Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) program, which FCC Commission Brendan Carr told us has failed to connect a single person to broadband. Delaney is facing Republican Neil Parrott in a race that continues to trend in the Republican’s direction.
