Youre going to see right here Kamala Harris and Donald Trump our in a virtual tie with just six weeks to go. Well break down each of their strengths and weaknesses heading into the final stretch of the campaign plus, end this war. That was president Bidens Message in his final speech to the United Nations saying, innocent people in both Israel And Gaza has that are going through hell. As he tries to jumpstart the push for a Ceasefire Deal and Donald Trump is headed south to talk about an issue he hopes will define this race. Is Kamala Harris tries to cut into his lead on the economy with The Endorsement of for them, 400 economists and policymakers. Im dana bash, lets go behind the headlines and inside politics six weeks, 42 days, Election Day is right around the corner. And in some states, voters are already headed to the polls. But Donald Trump is delivering some mixed messages about early voting, encouraging it in one breath and then push it baseless conspiracies about doing so in another, heres what he said last night in pennsylvania begins in pennsylvania over the next two weeks and we need each and every one of you to go out. Just dont take anything for granted. We got to get out and vote. You can start right away. Well, you know that right now, we have this stupid stuff where you can vote 45 days early i wonder what the hell happens during that 45. Lets move the cheeleys votes about 1 Million votes in electrical, them were fixing the Air Conditioner in the room, right now its terrible what happened the last time was disgraceful, including right here but were not going to let it happen again to, you know, too big to rig right now, theres nothing wrong with early voting, which is why Donald Trumps own campaign is trying to get their supporters to the polls right now. It is a deadlocked race. And to give you more on that, lets go right now to cnns David Chalian, who was with me at the Magic Wall with our Brand New numbers six weeks to go, as you said, 42 days and it doesnt get much closer than this, dana, this is among likely voters and believe no clear leader within the margin of error Kamala Harris at 48 support Donald Trump at 47 support among likely voters according to this Brand New poll by ssrs. Take a look here. Most important issue among likely voters far and away. Its the economy 41 say so. Protecting democracy is second at 21 immigration and abortion Rights Round out the doubledigit support categories, and on Issue Number one, you mentioned Donald Trump going down to georgia today. Take a look at trumps advantage on the economy. 50 of likely voters say they are, they trust him to handle the economy more than harris, only 39 of likely voters say so of harris, again, on Issue Number one it. Is really stunning if you think about these numbers, 20 more of voters say that they are worried about the economy and thats their Number One issue more than anybody else. And look at his lead on this. And then that begs the question, david, why is it . Such a tight race. Yes, exactly because trump, first of all, has some real Warning Signs on some attributes like his temperament or his Empathy And Ability to convince voters he understands there needs but also in the Coalition Piece of this, look at this Gender Gap among likely voters Kamala Harris has a ten Point Advantage among female voters, 53 to 43 . Donald trump has a nine Point Advantage among male voters. So you see here, this is a 19 Gender Gap between his support for men and her support for women. But dana drilled down into independent voters. Okay among likely independent voters her advantage with female independence grows. Its 15 Point Advantage, 51 to 36, and hes advantage with independent male voters comes down a bit the Gender Gap increases to her advantage among the critical middle of the electorate. These likely independent voters Take A Look here. Also, we asked views are so extreme that those views will threaten the country 48 of likely voters say yes to Donald Trump, that his views are so extreme that they threatened the country 35 say so of Kamala Harris, a chunk of these folks, dana, actually are still voting for Donald Trump, even though they think his views are extreme and threatened the country. And heres one other benefit for harris. You say, whats keeping a close 43 of likely voters say that harris will has the Trust Factor of the american people to unite the country. Only 30 say that about Donald Trump. What are the Warning Signs for harris besides the economy which you started with . Yes besides the colomy, there are pieces of likely voters, among black voters, harris has a 63 percentage Point Advantage. Now thats huge, thats a big advantage, but its not the 75 Point Advantage that Joe Biden had in the 2020 exit polls. A similar story here, even more so among latino voters in our poll, harris has a 19 percentage Point Advantage among likely latino voters in this poll. But biden in 2020 according to the exit polls, had 33 Point Advantage among latinos. And we should know while it is getting late. Now, people are voting and this race is locking into some extent, there are still persuadable voters here. So at 86 tell us in our poll, their mind is made up. Again, these are likely voters 12 say they change their mind and only two 2 of the people in this poll say they dont have first choice of a president ial candidate. So its about a 14 Percentage Range that could still be persuaded to support one candidate or the other data. So thats why theres so few persuadable voters thats why youre seeing so much of the focus on getting out the people who already say that they support either candidate, david really, really fast thats an ending new polling. We have a lot to dig in with our three excellent journalists here, the washington posts josh dawsey, lift our voices, Cofounder And Journalist gretchen carlson, and cnns eva mckend, josh, you talk to your sources in both camps all day every day . What do you think theyre going to take away from what david just reported well, i think the numbers are consistent with what you see another polls and a lot of the internal polling, right . If you talk to folks in trump world, they think theyre basically in the margin of error and most of the states, they see their numbers is a little bit better than the public polls, but they know that theyre behind somebody states they certainly see a Gender Gap as you delineated there. I think what they believe is that their Gender Gap with men is better than they are going to do even better than that polling shows with man, with black man, i guess we will see if its true or not, but thats what you hear from them a lot. I think the way they were, the numbers are right now is if thats a missed opportunities, the month of august by all accounts was not his best month. The debate performance, i think most people were honest and his world would say she did better i think a speech went a little too long at the convention, but then its a tied race and its erase to lose still and that he can still win. And thats optimism. I hear from there. But even as you see, Kamala Harris doing better and a lot of ways in Joe Biden was against him. So you mentioned the Gender Gap, gretchen, i want you to listen to what Donald Trump said yesterday in indiana, pennsylvania about women i always thought women likes me i never thought i had fake news keeps saying women dont like me. I dont believe that i am your protector. I want to be your protector. Heres president. I have to be here protector. I hope you dont make too much of it. I hope the fake news as a goal he wants to be there protected. Well, i am as president , i have to be. Your protector i am your protector well, i think im going to offend Donald Trump and saying, as a woman, i dont need him to protect me. Im fine on my own. And i think a lot of other women feel that way. I did think though that this is very interesting because up until now, Donald Trump has fed up Red Meat to the base last night, i felt like that was a bit of an Olive Branch to independent women to say suburban moms, independence, look at me. Im here for you. He talked about the safety of women, the health of women. I mean, theres Two Women In Georgia who would argue against that based on whats happened then with regard to abortion hes hes a little bit like the hands made tail to meet, calling himself a protector of women. It makes you wonder what else is going to happen to women if Donald Trump is elected . And even lets turn to the question of immigration. We want to give our viewers a sense of where this Poll Shows voters are who do you trust more to handle immigration . This is again among likely voters, trump 49 . Harris, 35 . Neither 15 , and we just want to add to this our new reporting today. Which is that Kamala Harriss campaign says that she plans to go to the southern border of the u. S. Soon. So i understand why the campaign thinks that this is a good strategy to put her down there to essentially argue, look, i care about this issue. The former president , he was the one that squash that bipartisan Border Enforcement he only wants this for politics. He doesnt actually care about this issue. But i think that when you speak to voters, they really crave authenticity they want to, for all of the former president s issues, youll often hear the caveat. Well, he is who he is the Vice President has a long history of welldocumented history of really being an ally to these immigrant communities she has two chapters in her book. I say we fight and we are better than this, where she really makes a robust case for undocumented immigrants during the Trump Administration she talked about a climate of fear. She dismiss the Border Wall as ineffective and a waste of resources and so even her guest at the Joint Session Of Congress was a daca recipient, was a dreamer and so for her to go down there and characterized herself as tough on the border it to me, it isnt consistent with a lot of the Policy Positions that she previously has espoused and so i think its really important why she was so strong. I think before the Hispanic Caucus when she talked about the havoc, it would weaken this country if another Trump Administration enforced mass deportations was because it felt authentic, felt real and so i think that is the challenge when she engages in sort of this Border Theatrics i would just add that i think that she should talk a lot about the fact that something thats underreported is that Border Crossings are down since 2020. Were not hearing a lot about that. And i think she should really talk about that a lot. I totally agree with you, though on the potential flipflopping but she doesnt have a choice right now. She is 15 points down on immigration. She has to own this narrative. She has to try to take it back. And one way she does it is to also talk about that bipartisan bill that trump completely killed. He should have been shouting from the mountaintops that he did that for immigration. And that was bipartisan, didnt she wrote real quick . I want to just turn to nebraska because we talked a lot about that in the Show Yesterday about the fact that republicans, Donald Trump in particular, and some of his allies were making a play to take that one congressional district, which could potentially give one electoral vote in omaha, nebraska that more liberal part of that Red State to change the way that the rules are. And they did not succeed. They wanted a winner take all approach like other States Trump put some serious effort into this. Lindsey graham, one of his allies, flew out to nebraska. They met with State Senators individually. They asked him to do versus trump calls it and on the phone with the governor to try and get these senators to do this and the senators arent doing it. I mean, they are saying were not, they wont the key Senator Yesterday came out and said he was not changing his position much like trump to then attack him on truth social as a grandstander. But it was an effort to make it easier to adopt path to 274 trump and to get these votes and its sort of interesting to me because trump has been able to strong arm so many people in the republican party, even people who really dont like them to do whatever he wants. But these State Senators in nebraska just said, no, stood up and said no and no because of the strong arming, it sounds like if they if they heard an argument other than well help Donald Trump win, they might have been more open to it. Okay. Everybody standby because coming up the forces holding us together or greater than those pulling us apart. That was what President Biden said and his plea for global unity in his last speech each at the United Nations, just a short while ago, were gonna give you the highlights after a short break winning is every things stupid.

Kayla dana, President Biden delivered what was meant to be a Capstone Address against a backdrop of a Brand New war in the Middle East since this time last year that has albon widening a protracted war on Europes Doorstep and long simmering tensions with china. But in an optimistic tone, President Biden pointed to challenges that hes witnessed just over his five decades in Foreign Policy, like the Vietnam War Apartheid in south africa, and the aftermath of 911.
