Lot more in the first president ial debate. Good evening thanks forever joining us. Im amma. Im dan. The debate began with them in a tie in the national poll. Both trying to show voters they are more qualified to be president. We are at the university in new york. Is. Democratic nominee for president of the United StatesHillary Clinton and republican nominee for president of the United States donald trump. Facing off for the first time. I will release my tax returns against my lawyers wishes when sheree leases her 33,000 emails that have been deleted. I made a mistake using a private email. Thats for sure. And if i had to do it over again would i obviously do it differently. Hillary clinton and donald trump each on the attack. Dishing personal punch. I know you live in your own reality but that is not the facts. But you have no plan. Oh, i do. Hitting each other on the issues. From taxes. My tax cut is the biggest. Your plan would say add 5 trillion dollars to the debt. Reporter stop and frichblingt the argument is that form of racial profiling. We have to take the guns away from the people in have them and that are bad people that shouldnt have them. Stop and frisk was found to be unconstitutional. And in part because it was ineffective. With one out of 5 voters saying they could change their mind after the debate. Candidates fighting hard to turn this tight race. I think donald just criticized me for preparing for this debate. And yes, i did. And you know whats i prepared for. I prepared to be president. I have much better judgment than she does. I think my strongest asset maybe by far is my temperament. Reporter they meet for two more debates. Next town hall in st. Louis on october 9. Marsy abc news, new york. This was a much anticipated event. Debate watch parties all aron the bay area. Lee ann was at San FranciscoRepublican Party at the presidio golf course. Lee ann. Yes. I jotted down a few things republicans in San Francisco heard and they liked. One was of course tax cuts. Trump promised would he reduce taxes. Another thing they heard and liked was the restructuring of nafta. Trade agreement between United States mexico and canada. Law and order thats something you pointed out and he supports stop and frisk. Donald trump said we need law and order in our inner cities and trump started strong by saying he will bring back jobs that have been lost to mexico and china. I think that has been the core of his message in the entire campaign is really what brought in the first place the place in ojai oshtion india than a, michigan no longer any jobs. I think republicans here felt trump performed very well and they say he looked and sounded very president ial. Now they also agree with trump when he said that Hillary Clinton has experience but he said its the bad kind of experience. Im live if San Francisco, lee ann, abc 7 news. Reporter thank you so much. Now to the democrat contract they have a watch party at the holiday inn in San Francisco. Lillian is there for us. Lillian . Reporter the viewing party was organized by the local Hillary Clinton campaign so room full of clinton supporters and volunteers. The party got off to bit of a rough start. There are issues with the satellite signal but after they were resolved and the debate really got going, the crowd became energize as one supporter put it clinton quote question. She was poised. Prepared and unlike her opponent she answered the questions. Hoping the performance will rally democrat and sway undecided voters. She was fabulous. I mean she was cool and calm and collected and she was the epitome of a president and he screws doesnt care the same way. If you compare her performance to the other republican that shared the stage with trump during the debate shes fully together. Staying strong and putting him in his place. Tax returns was a perfect example where he was able, she was able to say three or four reasons and he wasnt able to actually address that. A lot of trump in the room when he had the greatest temperment. The debate proves otherwise. Poll showing a dead heat the hope is that this debate may be a turning point for the clinton campaign. Live in San Francisco, lillian kim abc 7 news. Interesting thanks very muc much. Political reporter and political analyst carla says trump struggled at times during tonight debate. Both candidates had to show they had the demeanor to be president but trump tension may have hurt more than they help. A lot of times he just went off the rails. He ended up talking about rosie oe and own hotel in washington and didnt seem to be focused on really indepth answers. Thats where Hillary Clinton excelled tonight. Clinton. Trump. Even moderate ritor holt were all trending during the debate t. Senator boxer many people tweeting and he seemed board and tired. Low energy. Thirsty and cranky. She was high enernd yes likable. Ann coulter judge clinton demeanor with a sarcastic tweet smirking and mocking is an appealing at any rate hilary is kill. Stake were so high 20 percent of americans say the debate could change the mind about the election. In a news poll 3 in 10 young voters say they could switch the vote based on tonights face off. 60 percent of the voters went for president obama in 2012.
