Newsletter: GOP convention

With the third night of the Republican convention getting underway, CNN unveiled changes to its projected electoral map, making Pennsylvania a battleground state and moving Colorado and Wisconsin to "lean Democratic." 

Wednesday night’s convention speakers include Donald Trump’s VP pick, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich. Former GOP primary rivals Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio and Scott Walker will also speak. All three would be possible candidates again in 2020 if Trump loses this year.

In other developments:

  • The U.S. Secret Service is investigating an informal adviser to Trump's presidential campaign after the adviser called for Hillary Clinton's execution.
  • Cleveland police made multiple arrests and reported that two officers had been injured in a scuffle after a protester attempted to light an American flag on fire outside the security barrier surrounding the convention.
  • Trump and John Kasich's teams were at war over whether the Republican presidential nominee ever seriously wanted the Ohio governor to join the ticket.
