The progressive candidates the strongest candidates for democrats? what are some of the takeaways for november? i think the biggest one for me is, you know, the pennsylvania gubernatorial race, the mastriano effect, this is essentially looking at the betting markets. if you look back where we were on april 18th, the generic republican candidate was favored basically by about a 2 to 1 margin, projected to be favored in the fall. once mastriano became essentially the nominee, look at where we are now. those numbers flip. now the democratic nominee, josh shapiro, is favored. look, embracing trump, embracing the big lie, may work in a primary, but working the general election, that s something else. but here s the other thing i ll note. look at the turnout right now. this is essentially the turnout in the primaries last night where we have 80% of the estimated vote and in kentucky, idaho, north carolina and in pennsylvania, and all those states, republicans did better relative to democra
Republican nomination for governor in pennsylvania but that might be something that shifts things towards the democrats come november, at least that s what the better markets seem to be saying. josh shapiro is doing cart wheels this morning. he wanted mastriano to be the nomination. you see some have shifted the race more towards the democrats. if you look at the betting markets which i think are a good gauge of conventional wisdom and can take into account information that may not be publicly available yet, if you go back to april 18th, what did you see? you saw that the republicans were basically somewhere close to a two to one favorite in that race, 63% of the time they thought that the republican candidate would win, 37% of the time they thought the democratic candidate would win. jump forward to now. those numbers, john, have basically flipped. look at that. about a 62% favor josh shapiro versus mastriano only about a 38% favorite. if you are betting in pennsylvania who do you t
Basically saying what are the chances of winning? april 18th, look at this. just because it s not going to be great year to be a democrat in pennsylvania, we think or nationally, it was a 63% chance that republicans were going to win the pennsylvania governor s race. now, 38. again, i didn t major in math pu that s 25% difference which is a really, really big deal. hugely important race. he s said the election was stolen. does that concern you? i m aware he s said things that i would disagree with. until i actually meet the guy, get to know him a bit, i m going to suspend judgment. did you support him? did you vote for him? i did not vote for him. yeah, if he had voted for him, he probably would say, a little bit more that he did. can i jump, do we have time? i want to jump to one other

It comes at the a steep cost to its economy and has implications for the word. we re forecasting that the lockdown in shanghai will rock china s economy. shanghai is an economic powerhouse for china. it holds one of the two stock exchanges. shanghai s port accounts for something like 3% of global through-put at any given time. reporter: shanghai is home to the world s busiest container port. it remains operational, but according to logistics platform project 44, on april 18th, some ships have been diverted away due to truck shortages, but the containers are piling up at the port, waiting on average for 12 days before they re picked up and delivered compared to just over four days in late march. shanghai is also a major aviation hub, but the outbreak has forced the suspension of many flights, causing air freight rates to skyrocket. all of this is putting even more pressure on global supply chains. this is having a supply shock. a lot of these shipments now
Vice president kamala harris tested positive for covid-19 after returning from a week long trip to california. the white house confirmed her diagnosis today. she s taking both a rapid and pcr test. she does not have symptoms and isolating at the vp s resident. with travel schedules, harris and the president have not been in close contact since april 18th. she tweeted she s grateful to be vaccinated and boosted. let s bring in professor of medicine and surgery at george washington university. great to see you. she doesn t have any symptoms. if her covid infection follows the natural course, when will she be able to get back to work? that s a great question, alisyn. according to the cdc, you can go back to work in five days without testing. but we know that many people are will test positive with a rapid antigen test which means
Do know that kamala s positive test results were revealed just an hour later. the v.p. had just gotten back from california. now, naturally, everybody is wondering could she have infected the president? when was the last time they were together? well, interestingly enough, the vice president s office told fox news that kamala hasn t seen joe since april 18th. over a week ago. that s a pretty telling piece of information right there but i could guess the good news is she probably didn t give covid to biden. joe biden has said time and time again that he never knew anything about his son hunter s businesses. my son about his overseas business dealings. i have never discussed with my son or my brother or anyone else anything having to do with their businesses, period. do you stand by your statement that you did not discuss any of your son s
April 18th, the biden administration announced that the transportation security administration will no longer enforce the federal mandate requiring masks on all u.s. airports and on board aircraft. [ cheers ] yeah, slow your roll, not so fast. because the cdc still believes that masks are essential on public transportation and the biden administration will appeal the ruling that struck down the mask mandate. meanwhile, philadelphia lifted its short lived mask mandate while l.a. county reinstated its own. so honestly, amid all the confusion, who do you listen to? and with covid cases again on the rise, i have a lot of questions. here to answer them is public health physician back with us, dr. purnell. how i ve missed her. look at those beautiful braids. thank you for being with us. i want to point out to our viewers, a trump appointed federal judge is the person who struck down that federal mask mandate. how exactly does that square
