A couple of raindrops on the car windshield. Whats that . Its been a while. Six days until the election. Bothsi battleground states right now and there are some key challenges for democrats and republicans. In florida, for instance, enthusiasm for clinton among African American voters is high, but the turnout of black voters is down compared to when president obama ran. Joe biden compared for clinton today not far from trumps rally. Trumps strategy is to drive up his turnout and drive down African Americans. New cnn polls find trump leading in nevada and arizona. Clinton is ahead in pennsylvania and florida, but the average of polls in florida show of its a mere tie. Donald trump has one of his most outspoken supporters campaigning in colorado today, former speaker of the house newt gingrich. Kyle clark sits down with him tonight at 6 00 on next. Trump came to colorado to question the integrity of our mailin ballot system, no proof, just this allegation that its its not fair, but its a genuine worry across the whole country. A number of places weve found people voting 20, 30 years after they died is not trivial. In some places, philadelphia a good example, i think is a pretty good indication theres still a lot of those. So the notion of ballot integrity is not a small thing. Coming up at 6 00 gingrich discusses whether republicans should be floating talk of impeaching Hillary Clinton before shes even elected. Nights at 6 00 on 9news. Chelsea chin on was in boulder today campaigning clinton was in boulder today campaigning for her mother and in the aurora area last night urging voters to return their ballots early or make sure theyre registered to vote on election someday.

Donald trumps running mate is also in colorado today. Vice president ial candidate mike pence is going to speak this evening in loveland at the Larimer County fair ground at 5 30 fairgrounds at 5 30. This is a lot to take in with all the new poll numbers coming in. In a few minutes well look at how colorado could change the outcome of this election. Authorities in north dakota say pipeline protesters have been trying to get onto private developer. Police say about 30 people are in waist deep water confronting law enforcement. Medics have been treating some protesters for hypothermia and others hit with pepper spray. Native americans say the pipeline would taint Water Supplies and destroy sacred ground. Reports out this morning indicate documents that show American Indian artifacts found along the route of the Dakota Access oil pipeline last month were not reported to state regulators for 10 days. North dakotas ie notified quickly but didnt report it to the commission because he thought the Pipeline Company would do so. Reuters is reporting president obama says the u. S. Government is looking at ways to reroute the pipeline in response to concerns by native american tribes. More concerns today about the fuel supply in the southeast, the governor of georgia telling residents they shouldnt overreact about the possibility of shortages after a pipeline explosion monday afternoon in rural alabama. The Pipeline Authority said a contract crew accidentally hit the gas line igniting a fire. A leak on that same pipeline in september caused gas stations to run dry and increased prices in alabama, georgia, tennessee and the carolinas. The Pipeline Authority says its hoping for a faster fix this time around. Commuters beware, work is still happening on speer boulevard heading into downtown denver. It was expected to be completed today. Public works says crews hope to be done by evening rush concrete steam vault under the road. Xcel says the underground vaults are deteriorating. The road could collapse if the vault is not repaired. Two lanes on sphere boulevard and one lane on stout street will be closed until repairs are completed. A dry day maybe . We will see. We have a live look at Progressive Field in cleveland just a few hours before game seven, as many folks had wanted. Extra game last night after a big win over the indians. The cubs scored nine runs including that grand slam by shortstop addison russell. Cleveland won the last world series in 1948. The cubs havent won one since 1908. The cubs raise the white flag with the big blue w in Wrigley Field after every win, but inve in Enemy Territory over the rock and roll hall of fame. When the cubs lose, they fly a flag with an l. The tradition of flying the win and loss flags began in 1937 to help people passing by Wrigley Field to let people know just how the cubs did that way. Then you know and they found one in person. Can you imagine the person raising that thing up in cleveland taking off real quick afterwards . Baby 18 years in the making. And the colorado buffaloes are getting ready for ucla with some big expectations and a attorneys who specialize in wills, probate, are here volunteering their time for you until 5 30 this afternoon, so give them a ring 3036980999. Six days, folks, is what youve got till you vote. The polls right now are fascinating. Ian and kelly here, thanks we were just talking. Clinton has a 2. 5 Percentage Points lead in colorado and she just bout a huge round of ad buys here. What does that mean for donald trump . Yeah. Hillary clinton announced shes throwing another half Million Dollars into colorado. That tells me that theyre nervous, that theyre scared and shes trying to shore it up, but quite frankly, a lot of those polls havent yet even fbi investigations completely in them. This is going to be a really tight race to the end. Were looking at this map from real clear politics that came out today. Theyre calling it at this point. This is their projection at this point because before this so many states have been i dont know and blue or red, back and buy, its six days, a lot of people have already voted. Over 1 million voters have voted in colorado. Sure. I mean is it too little too late . There are about 3 4 of expected electorate that hasnt voted yet, so no, i dont think so and furthermore, its an insurance policy more than anything eliminates i think. Look, if your wedding planner told you there was a 25 chance of rain on your wedding day, youd still buy the tent, right . Right. Still want the insurance policy. Thats what this ad buy is all about. Im confident the clinton ground game, message, candidates, surrogates and programs has outworked the Trump Campaign left, right and center especially in colorado. But there have been 1. 2 million ballots returned already in colorado. Thats a lot. Did she make a mistake not participating in these ads months at a time . We havent had an ad since july . Democrats for the first time in probably ever weve had universal mail ballots and mostly mail ballots are outvoting republicans raw by the numbers and performance categories. The First Time Ever in 2014 democrats are nine Percentage Points ahead of where they were in terms of ballot returns and republicans are down 7. 5 which was barely a good year for them. Kelly, did she make a mistake . She. She took it for granted she did. Shes nervous about it. Going back to ians analogy, the reality is now people are telling her hey, theres a chance youll have rain on your wedding and sneeze like oh, no. And shes like oh, no. Now what do i do . Let me try to get a really expensive tent that maybe will work or not. In addition, when were talking about all mailin ballots, this is unprecedented. Every single day republicans, difference has gotten better for republicans. So if that continues, we could see the trends are changing. I think the map we saw that was so interesting if you do the math and with colorado circled if, in fact, this is correct, it could come down to like colorado. What need to happen for us to be the sort of Tipping Point state is that everything has to break against clinton and against all of the polling and trend lines this entire tightening. It always tightens toward the end. Thats how polling works. At the end of the day everything will tighten. It would be great if we maintained our status as a super important swing state, but i think there will be plenty of other states to buffer us. Do you think theres a certain state, kelly . I keep hearing wisconsin, colorado, arizona. Some of those states are all thats the tipping state. You know, it could be colorado. It could be a question of whether or takes utah. There are a lot of question marks out there. Colorado is certainly one of them and becoming more so as time goes on. Ian was talking about trends. Trends are certainly going against Hillary Clinton and its better to surge late than to surge early and trump is surging. Theres no question about it. These polls are all over the place. You can find the poll that fits do you think that real clear politics poll is accurate . Do you think clinton up by just 2 1 2 Percentage Points is accurate given what weve seen in terms of returns . No. I have to challenge that. I think shell win colorado by five or six points. Kelly . I dont know because i think that we havent had a president ial with the mailin ballots the way weve seen in the past and so its really hard to predict, but i think that the fact that politics is this close and even floyd ciruli who is a contributor here has them tied is really a big issue. Let me have one more piece to this real quick. Lets say the polls are 50 50 hillary and trump in colorado. The fact that the Clinton Campaign has a massive about statewide groundwork ready to go and trump has nothing, that given nobody actually likes Hillary Clinton. This is the big issue. More than half the voters and states like Hillary Clinton. Voting is not a mandate for people that dont like her. We love having you guys on. It will be a fascinating next six days. We hope theyre taking their vitamins, drinking lots of water, doing everything necessary. Okay. Thanks so much for joining us. E polls are really interesting.
