And starting with the governors race. jeff zeleny is at the head quart quarters of terry mcauliffe. it is a tight race, and what are they feeling down, there and what are the campaign aides saying about the turnouts in the all-important northern virginia? >> jake, it sais an absolutely tight race, and mcauliffe is using the final hours to text voters and door knocks to some 60,000 voters today. and one thing, they are looking at those who supported joe biden a year ago and this year decided not ...

You say all this is where all the momentum is. i think youre agreeing with mark with this, right? >> yeah, im agreeing. except that we need to define parents better. republican parents. republican-leaning independent parents. its a matter of maximizing their turnout. hes not winning many biden voters. some of them arent voting because theyre disillusioned about biden and disillusioned about the congressional democrats. but thats different than attracting a big percentage of biden voters. these a...

Its very important that we have a third straight election where democrats have a good enough turnout to. wind and i understand with every district and state has its nuances, but i think that this notion that the republicans can can get great turnouts again is also a question. and thats where i think trump is poisoning the atmosphere. and i think a lot of voters particularly his fans why bother >> tom miller,? lets talk about mitch mcconnell. a broad question to you, when i pretty much know you t...
