The surprising centrism in the Indiana Senate race

The Democrat supports a border wall and the Republican supports protections for pre-existing conditions. It’s the Indiana Senate Race where incumbent Sen. Joe Donnelly, and challenger Mike Braun are defying plenty of the regular party lines.

Donnelly is the Democrat but he can’t be attacked as easily on immigration like many of his colleagues. When President Trump threatened a shutdown over funding for his border wall earlier in August, the self-branded centrist Donnelly told Politico he was “fine with $3, $3.5, $4, or $5 billion” in funding for the long-promised barrier if it meant keeping the government open. And that’s not all.
