This is not a partisan moment. This must be american moment. Ff pac is responsible for the content of this ad. Visibly fades the dark spots away. New neutrogena® rapid tone repair 20 percent pure vitamin c. A serum so powerful dark spots dont stand a chance. See what i mean . Neutrogena® pelley no telling who will win the election, but there is no better place to ask than in ohio. Since 1896, ohio has sided with the president ial winner 93 of the time. Ohio hasnt missed since 1960, and no republican has ever won the presidency without ohio. We asked ohio in 2016, when National Polls showed a lead for Hillary Clinton. Back then, ohio voters told us they saw more excitement for donald trump, and he won the state by eight points. But now in ohio, he and former Vice President joe biden are essentially tied. This past week, we returned, to ask ohio. Trump god bless the u. S. A. Pelley you know a president is playing defense when he spends vanishing time in a state he had easily won before. Trump hello, circleville. Pelley this was mr. Trump last weekend, putting a pre halloween scare into circleville, ohio. Trump biden and the democrats will offshore your jobs, dismantle your police departments, dissolve your borders, confiscate your guns, eliminate your private health care. They want to terminate your religious liberty. They want to destroy the suburbs. I am the best thing that ever happened to the suburbs. Pelley the suburbs are where mr. Trump is fighting for his political life. They were critical to his victory in 2016. But polls suggest suburbanites are moving away from him. Randy and cyndra cole are republicans, raising four children outside cleveland. Randy cole im going to vote for President Trump. Pelley and cyndra . Cyndra cole im going to vote for Vice President biden. Pelley as they watched the final debate, polls showed trump leads in men, but biden leads among women. Randy cole obviously, the president can be abrasive and confrontational, and thats his style. But now, as ive seen four years of the president s record, i do believe the people around him, his policies are those things that i agree with. Cyndra cole i believe that the Republican Party that i joined years ago has left me. Pelley and what are those values that you hold dear, that you dont believe the administration has followed . Cyndra cole theres such great divide right now in our country, and i think if we could talk about equity in terms of equality of opportunity, that there would be Real Solutions offered that both republicans and democrats could agree on. And the national debt. The president promised to eliminate the debt, and instead, its increased by 36 . Pelley what is your impression of the way the president has handled the covid outbreak . Cyndra cole so, were trying to not talk about that as a couple. Thats one area that we tend to disagree. Randy cole as i cross my arms. Cyndra cole yeah, right. I just wish he would have been more transparent from the beginning. To come and look us in the eye and say, i know this is hard. Getting through this is going to be hard. We have to do this together. Randy cole but the pandemic itself is a complex situation. And i do think that the president mobilized a task force, he mobiized industry, hes working with the 50 state governors. I do think its unfair that hes being labeled as causing 220,000 pandemic deaths. Pelley ohios known infections reached an alltime high this past week as voters were going to the polls. You lost someone to covid. Tommie jo brode i did. My grandmother. Yeah. Pelley we first met Tommie Jo Brode in 2016. Shes an attorney, a corporate executive. Last time, she was voting trump, and still is. And despite that personal loss, you still believe the president s done a good job with the disease . Brode i believe that people who pass away, do that in gods time. So, President Trump has a lot of power, but not more than god. Pelley when we sat down four years ago, you said this about donald trump i trust donald trump. Brode in 2016 i trust him to protect this nation and keep my family safe. Pelley how has he done on that score . Brode aplus. Pelley aplus . Why do you say so . Brode i think he has kept his promises. I feel more confident in the United States military than i ever have. I have not seen domestic terrorist problems and threats that seemed to be creeping and looming when he took office. Pelley Ronald Reagan in 1980 famously asked, are you better off than you were four years ago . Brode emphatically yes. My 401 k is in good shape. That matters to me. Being able to just to save a little bit of money and have a little bit of extra things in life is important to my family. And with a good economy, weve been blessed to do that. Pelley but there is also the curse of the coronavirus recession that came out of left field. Ohio unemployment is over 8 . We took advantage of akrons idle ballpark to have a sociallydistanced visit with workers from an American Industrial icon. Bob schrock ive been at goodyear for 27 years. My dad was at goodyear for over 40 years. His dad was at goodyear for, you know, 30, 40 years. Pelley in the 1950s, akron had 50,000 rubber workers. Now its 700. More than anyone, bluecollar men assembled the president s 2016 ohio victory. Show of hands, how many of you intend to vote for President Trump . Two over here. And how many of you intend to vote for mr. Biden . Bob schrock, mark sesock, dan gruelle and Charles Pierce split their votes for different reasons. Charles pierce i think President Trumps done a great job on trade. Replacing nafta with the u. S. M. C. A. Was a very, very big thing for america. Hes used his business acumen and negotiating ability to bring a lot of jobs back to america. Pelley mark, youre supporting former Vice President biden. Mark sesock the one issue that President Trump cant get from behind is the response to the coronavirus within this country. We have the best Health Care Available to our citizens, and i really believe that the leadership of this country failed our citizens in protecting the people. Dan gruelle my numberone issue that i completely support donald trump on is his prolife stance. Theres, to me that is the most important issue in my life. Pelley bob, what are the most important issues to you in supporting former Vice President biden . Schrock you know, workers rights, workers protections. My right to join a union and to collectively bargain to fight for my Good Health Care for my 40hour work week, overtime after eight, over 40 holidays, paid time off, vacations. These are things that unions have fought for, for decades. Pelley Ohio Manufacturing jobs grew a slight 2 during the president s term, but that growth was wiped out by the pandemic. The president didnt help himself in akron recently, after hearing that goodyear doesnt allow political clothing in its shop. He tweeted, dont buy goodyear tires they announced a ban on maga hats. Get better tires for far less sesock ive never heard of a sitting president call for a boycott of an american company. Pelley maybe mr. Trump didnt know the akron plant handcrafts all the tires for nascar one of his constituencies plus, one other customer. Sesock we also make the president s limo tires. So, i think he underestimates how many jobs are out there, goodpaying jobs, to support your family. And i just thought it was irresponsible. Reverend Jawanza Colvin some of the things that have come out of this president s mouth has angered me, my family, our congregation. Pelley reverend Jawanza Colvin of clevelands Olivet Institutional Baptist Church told us the words of the president inflame division. To colvin, its an opportunity to get out the vote. Colvin there will be a world after donald trump, and were voting for that world. Pelley in 2016, ohios African American vote was down 6. 5 . When we first met lisa tolbert, this, back in 2016, she didnt see enthusiasm for Hillary Clinton. When African Americans vote in large numbers in ohio, ohio votes democratic. And when they dont come to the polls, ohio votes republican. Whats going to happen . Lisa tolbert im going to pray that they come to the polls. Im going to pelley but youre not feeling that groundswell. Tolbert im not hearing it. Pelley last week we found lisa tolbert recovering from covid. But she worries more about her 20yearold son. For fear of a police stop, she drives him to his night job. I wonder how this election feels to you . Tolbert i know this election is more important. Because we have watched our president , to me, act a plumb fool for four years. Pelley are you voting for joe biden or against donald trump . Tolbert mmmm. Is that both . Can it be a both answer . Pelley it can be any answer you want it to be. Tolbert it can be both. Im definitely voting against donald trump. But i do believe, more so than i probably thought about Hillary Clinton, i do believe joe biden could do the job. Pelley that doesnt sound like enthusiasm, but ohio is seeing historic early voting. So far, two million have voted, about double the usual. Ron smetana couldnt wait for his absentee ballot. Ron smetana we received it on the 14th of october. We dropped it off on the 14th of october. And on the 15th of october, i checked the website and it had already been scanned and approved for counting. Pelley smetana has a lot in common with his friend, Steve Plogsted both are retired Army Leiutenant colonels, both life long republicans. How did you vote in 2016 . Steve plogsted trump. Pelley and what about this year . Plogsted its going to go biden. Pelley and why not donald trump again . Plogsted dont trust the man. Hes supposed to be a leader. And hes a bully. Pelley so youre a republican whos already voted for the biden ticket. Smetana i have. And i am, yes. Pelley there are fellow republicans in ohio who would ask, how could you do that . Smetana i could not vote for donald j. Trump. His consistent lies, his handling of covid, failure to follow science, whether its with Anthony Fauci or climate science, i just cannot tolerate. Brode i think a vote for President Trump is a vote for lawfulness. Pelley Tommie Jo Brode told us she has no trouble tolerating the president s style if that 401 k , and her home, are secure. Brode i understand that people dont always like his approach, and that he doesnt come across as soft. You know, he doesnt maybe strike us as someone who wants to give out hugs. And i get that. And i want my pastor to give out hugs. Its not what im looking for in my president. Pelley do you think ohios going to go trump again . Brode i do. Ive driven all over the state of ohio. People are enthusiastic. They are very enthusiastic. I think ohio will not just be red i think itll be bright red. Pelley on the sunday before election day, youre going to say what to your congregation . Colvin first, ill probably quote a hymn from amazing grace, through many dangers, toils and snares weve already come. It was grace that brought us safe thus far and its going to be grace that leads us home. But grace without voting . Grace without going to the polls . Were going to need a lot more than just grace. Were going to need us to take that grace into our hands and into those polls. Pelley this ohio is not a retread of 2016. Joe biden is viewed much more favorably than Hillary Clinton. Ohio will come down to this will African Americans turn out . Can biden swing enough votes in the suburbs to overcome the president s big advantage in the countryside . And, will ohio extend its 56 year streak of getting it right . ticking listening to the voters of ohio. I want him out. I think it will be bright red. At 60minutesovertime. Com. And take. It. On.

If you cant afford your medicine, abbvie may be able to help. If you cant afford your medicine, oincredible ability to bring people together. S in the senate, while so many people would cut each other down, joe would bring them to the table. Sometimes literally. He and his colleagues would gather around the picnic table in our backyard, talking and debating. Because joe always understood, if youre just trying to score points for your party, theres no need to actually talk to the other guys. But if youre trying to get things done, to really make things better for working people, you have to find common ground. Our country feels more divided now than at any other point in my lifetime. We need someone to remind us how to look for the best in each other. How to find solutions that can work for us all. I cant think of a better person for the job than joe. Im joe biden, and i approve this message. Before we talk about taxsaudreys expecting. New . Twins wed be closer to the twins. Change in plans. At fidelity, a change in plans is always part of the plan. Woman after covid, my hours got so we cant pay our bills. And now our Family Budget is gonna be hit hard with prop 15. The yes on 15 ads say it only raises taxes on big corporations. Thats not true were all going to pay. 11 billion in new property taxes will get passed on to Small Businesses and farms. Theyll raise prices. Higher gas, health care, food. Even day care. We cant make ends meet now. Families cant afford 15. No on prop 15. Dickerson as the votes come in tuesday night, the answer to some of the elections most pressing questions may be found in the new battleground state of arizona. It has many of the key voting groups that will be pivotal in a host of close states, and an early Voting System that has been tested in the past, and has been tabulating votes for two weeks, meaning well know who the bulk of those voters picked by the end of the night. Joe biden has enjoyed a small but consistent lead in arizona since the summer, thanks to suburban women, seniors and latinos, which suggests the one time home of american conservatism could be changing in the same way the country is becoming more diverse and more educated. But, democrats thought that in 2016, too. That long line of green envelopes you see marching together contains just some of the Record Number of completed mailin ballots from arizona voters. First, they are processed through stateofthe art machines. Then theyre sent to ballot tabulation centers for counting. Arizonans of both parties have been voting safely and easily by mail since 1992. This election, for the first time, state officials started tabulating ballots 14 days before the election. As of tonight, millions of early votes have been processed. The results sit in secure servers those red and blue machines that are sealed, transparent and not connected to the internet. And no one knows what those results are. Katie hobbs were allowed to post results an hour after polls close, so 8 00 p. M. On Election Night here
