I saw Chris Wallace made it through and nobody called h. R. After the hour. You set the bar low for us. He said he wants to come back. He enjoyed himself. We hope you do, too. He admitted that Juan Williams had very nice legs on the show. You dont have to answer who has the best legs. Well give you 59 minutes to think about it. Finally decision day is here after two years of tireless campaigning and what is reportedly a record amount of money spent for a midterm election. The balance in power could come down to just a few senate races tonight. Political analysts saying states like colorado, iowa, New Hampshire and North Carolina will tell us the most about the meaning of this years voting and the condition of the coalition that carried barack obama to the presidency not once but twice. Republicans need to pick up six seats in the senate to rebegin control of the chamber that they lost eight years ago. So bret, you take the fed, you sit down at 6 00. Whats the first thing, the key indicators youre going to look for tonight . Well get exit polls, the first wave of those about 5 00 p. M. So well get a chance of where things are. Is that just on the east coast . Its across the board. And but well really have a sense in the early states that close at 7 00. The interesting thing about this election is that theres so much early vote that a lot of these states, we will have a lot of raw vote total already by the time the polls close. So add that to the exit polls and you really get a sense where we could make some quicker calls. I think New Hampshire, North Carolina, georgia will give us a sense of how republicans are going to do for the night. You mentioned four states that a lot of political experts, analysts will be watching. Lets go to North Carolina first. Kay hagen, i personally think this is a big one to watch if North Carolina goes for hagen, it will be an interesting indicator of where things are going. If it doesnt, does that tell us how the other states will go . Yeah. I think the early states will give us a sense of how things are shaping up. Kay hagan has ron a good campaign. She managed to stay way from president obama all the time. She focused her sights on tom tillis as in the state legislature and what he did and didnt do there and she was having a lot of success until about a couple of weeks ago, polls started really closing in and i think that this one could be tight. One thing that were all watching in North Carolina, of course, is the economy, the Unemployment Rate in North Carolina is nearly a full percentage higher than the National Average and tom tillis has owned and represented that businessman aspect, his business background in that state and i wonder how much of that well see tonight. Theres an antibusiness rhetoric thats come out of washington that a lot of Small Business owners have had a big problem with. How much do you think that were going to see that affect the election tonight . Yeah. The chamber of commerce has weighed in and they feel like there are things that can be done differently as far as regulations are concerned and thats where a lot of these senate races are mentioning regulations and how it hinders the ability of business to move forward. I think when it comes down to it, people vote on how they feel about the economy, around the Kitchen Table and more than any of these outside issues. Thats what has been, you know, frustrating, i would imagine, for democrats who are running because people have said time and time again theyre not feeling great about the economy as sandra has just pointed out. You know, before we move on from North Carolina, i wonder how much it will tell us about the independent vote out there, too. When you look at hagan versus tillis, theres 5 that will go to the other candidate in this. Independent, more americans are identifying themselves as independents than republicans and democrats. I wonder what that race can tell us about the rest of the country with regard to that. Its a gret point because there are a lot of unaffiliated voters who dont self identify as republican or democrat and how they or for either party. Yeah. And how they fold tonight. If you think about it flopping the cards out on the table, if you just go by history, more will choose the party that is better positioned tonight so it would you would think going into today that republicans would be better positioned for that unaffiliated voter to be 60 40 republican. I grew up on the west coast. I still live and vote in california. Do you worry some outcomes in the Eastern States will affect voting in the western states where polls are still open and doou curtail your broadcasting and analysis at all considering that people may have a level of suggestibility who havent voted yet . Great question. We just go with the facts and once the polls close in certain states, those are the calls you make. How that affects later voting, we leave that to them. The old, we report, you decide. If theres a call to make, well make it i think well be able to make a lot of calls in 7 00 and 8 00 but the biggest hour might be the 9 00. That has so much to do with the early voting you mentioned. Some states are seeing 40 of the electorate has been to the polls. Colorado, 75 of the raw vote total will be in as the polls closed. You mentioned colorado. He tried to bring up the democratic war on women. He overreached in a really big way against cory gardner. Any thoughts how colorado could go tonight . I was out there a couple of times and its a split state. And mark udall ran a campaign that was kind of single focused and that he got called out by the denver post. The denver post endorsed cory gardner, the republican. They en dorszed mark udall the first time he ran and it was a shock. It was a shock wave out there. I think you just saw a Campaign Event the other day where a democratic fundraiser gave money, said you are more than just about womens issues. And got very upset with udall. I think that has cost him some. In corado, and this is true also in alaska, they have a ballot measure, an amendment that could bring out conservative voters. You who do you think that affects overall voting and do they bring out democrats where theyre legalizing pot and more republicans with the personhood amendments . Colorado is by mail. A lot votes are already in but in the ballot measures, theres a medical marijuana in florida that could affect that governors race down there, who goes out to the polls. You mentioned personhood in colorado. There are also minimum wage Ballot Initiatives in several states. And that would obviously favor democrats in the turnout model. If donors remember to vote. Parties work with grass roots groups to bring up these ideological ballot measures hoping theyll sway one way or the other. Both parties have done it for years, to some success depending on the time. I think the overall feeling of this election is broader than these Ballot Initiatives but they couldnt make some difference. Marijuana could help you in alaska and personhood would help udall in colorado. Colorado was also particularly with udal, also one of the first places we saw the push back against president obama and his falling popularity in the polls because remember, very early on they were not seen together and that was really kind of the beginning of the conversation, is this president tax i cdaib toxic on the campaign trail . He only went to one in michigan. Harris mentioned independents. New hampshire, a state full of independents and president obama did very well in. It looks like its getting close there. Can jean pull it off . She can. She has the machinery. She has obviously a lot of name recognition and former governor but these polls have, going into today, suggested that scott brown could pull off an upset. Hes a pretty good retail campaigner. Hes pretty good on the stump. Two, hes focused on immigration. They didnt really have an answer for some executive order possibilities that the president is going to do, likely after the election and three, the scenario about isis and that whole environment of Foreign Policy did not help her. James foley is from New Hampshire who was beheaded, the american journalist. That dominated a lot of campaign during that time. I think its still an outside shot for brown to pull it off but if he does, well get a real indication of the night. And lastly, lets go to iowa. A lot of eyes on iowa where joni ernst is doing well in the polls. Yesterday making headlines for a remark that former senator tom harkin made against her, comparing her to taylor swift. This would be history in the making if she were able to pull this out. First female senator to be elected from the state of iowa if she wins. This is one that democrats concede. If they dont win this, they have a really tough battle to keep control of the senate and i think that this is going to be one that everybody is looking at tonight. Do you think those words from bruce braley hurt him in the last couple days before the election . The words about were talking about the same guy who made a female comment. Harkin, you mean. Im so sorry. I wonder, bret, some things that happened in the final days of the election have counted quite a bit considering how close the races have been. Im not sure about that one. We all agree. Taylor swift, shes kind of moved on. I think shes accepted the apology and moved on. Over the weekend the big news, big headline was yes, joni ernst has jumped ahead but it wasnt an outliar in some of the polls now, that it was outside of the margin ef of error. They pay attention. Des Moines Register is there, its local, its reputable. I think just after that, a poll said that it was tied so i think these polls have been all over the place. And his comments about grassley didnt help him. For him to say hes a farmer without a long degree, grassley, a longtime politician. Tune in tonight with our very own one lucky guy along with megyn kelly. While democrats face strong head winds tonight, the possible Silver Lining for them could be the governors races where title battles in key states could go the dems way plus the potential fallout for the president if the democrats lose big tonight. The prediction from one of americas top political analysts that the president will leave his party in shambles. Right after the show, catch more from the couch.

Welcome back to outnumbered. With republicans expected to regain the house, it looks like a bright spot for democrats can be the races. Now republicans are facing difficult reelections. In florida, Governor Scott facing stiff challenge from Charlie Crist. In pennsylvania, g. O. P. Governor corbett locked in with tom woolf and in wisconsin, Governor Walker who two years ago was the first governor in u. S. History to survive a recall election locked in a race with mary burke. Any predictions here, sir . It looks better for democrats because of the 14 tossups in the governor races, only three are incumbent democrats so the rest are republicans and that just works better in the math. The possibility of democrats picking up governors races is much better than they have the scenario in the senate. A lot of these races are one and two points and its really amazing as you look around the map how tight it is and we should be careful to not focus too much on these polls because we are where we are here. Today is the poll. I have a question. If he loses this race, does it dash his 2016 chances . A lot of moderate republicans like him as a president ial hopeful. Yes. I think it does. I think most people think it does. If you cant win today, hes not likely going to run for president in 2016. That race is very important for republicans because of all the things hes done and challenged Public Sector unions and that model is a model for governors, they think, around the country to possibly challenge even in a blue state. Like california where theyre drowning under these union obligations and these pensions. And they want revenge. Theyre not happy about what happened, what scott walker did and it seems to me this is their opportunity, they think, to take him out. Whats astounding to me, he seemed to be doing okay for a long time. People thought he was safe which really motivated democrats to get out. They thought, well, hes safe. Were going to get out and vote. This is his third statewide election. He had to do the recall in 2011 and won that and won it convincingly. So hes been through this a bunch of times and managed to pull it out. Its interesting what you say, the kind of branding that he has contributed to the Republican Party through his politics that if he doesnt win, can they sell that really in 2016 becomes the question. Its a big deal. Its just a big policy deal to make that point. If he can win, they move forward on that line. I often will hear you say on election nights how important florida is, the state of florida. And as we look ahead to 2016, its particularly important to Hillary Clinton if she were to win. Why is that . Because of the machine. If she would run. A governor can control a machine, a Party Machine in a state and that could mean two, three points for the incumbent party of that state to help the nominee of that party. And so, you know, if Charlie Crist pulls out a win in florida, that is a big thing for whoever the democratic nominee will be. They can move the ball. Charlie crist has his fan squarely pointed on him today because lord knows hes sweating as a result for tonight because its pretty close. The debate fan that he had like down below on his feet . There are growing questions about whether president obama can reboot after the midterms and whether he even wants to. Plus we all know how important voting is but fewer than half of americans are expected to cast a ballot today. So what would it take to get more people to participate in our democracy . trader vo i search. I research. I dig. And dig some more. Because, for me, the challenge of the search.

With potential defeat for democrats in the senate, some are starting to wonder whether president obama can reboot after the midterm elections and if he even wants to do that. Obama sources saying, quote, i sense a certain fatalism there and its disturbing. Theres a sense that ive tried everything and look where it got me. People misread it and disengagement, its frustration but who cares . Its a bad mindset. The bully pulpit is gone, maybe forever. But one of the president s top aides said that democrats know theyre in trouble if they lose the senate but adding that once you hit rock bottom, then you have the obama comeback story. I guess you could say thats a Silver Lining, bret. Heres a silver l democrats in that despite the president s
