We’re less than a month away from the midterm elections. While the most prominent race in North Carolina is for U.S. Senate, there’s also an important race for state Supreme Court. Incumbent Democrat Anita Earls faces a challenge from former Republican state Rep. Sarah Stevens. You’re probably not familiar with her. She hasn’t run any TV ads, has largely avoided social media, and has raised little money. Reporter Bryan Anderson wrote about Stevens’ strategy, or seeming lack of it, for The Assembly. He joins WFAE's Marshall Terry to talk about it.

This week, we take a closer look at President Donald Trump’s campaign rally last week in Gastonia, where he appeared in support of Republican U.S. Senate candidate Michael Whatley.
