dog democrat. she's been on the airways here in the state since the spring marketing herself as that western independent, sort of the maverick, trying to take that mantle from john mccain. so the question is where do republicans in this state fall? this is the state of barry goldwater, of john mccain, and now suddenly the democrat in this race is positioning herself as the future of this state. we were just over outside of actually at a tailgate over at the arizona state football game here earlier this afternoon. it was quite remarkable to be frank. talking with the number of republican independent voters that we did, that said they are going to go vote for kyrsten sinema because they're frustrated with the leadership of not only donald trump, but also republican members of congress. they said martha mcsally is emblematic of that, essentially going and voting for that house-backed bill -- the health care repeal back in may 2017, and they said that was evidence that martha mcsally was willing to go along with whatever the trump administration was pushing forward. ari? >> thank you, vaughn. thanks to everyone out in the

tuesday for the first time. mary barzee flores, a democrat running for congress in florida, and mary gate scanlon. scanlon is running against pearl kim, who was part of that eight-candidate panel we did, and we invited a lot of other folks to come in who were running against those folks. my thanks to both of you. i guess i'll start with mary gay and say how does gender come up, if at all, for you out on the campaign trail? >> well, it has certainly come up a lot less in our race since we have two women running against each other. it causes voters to focus on the differences between us. >> which as you say kind of in a good way cancels out that as a contrast point. what about what might be called women's issues, health care, a lot of debates we've seen over the supreme court in the past two years? >> well, certainly and our positions have been very different there. my opponent has not committed to

repairing the affordable care act. she, in fact, is not pro-choice. she has hewn to many of the republican party's positions. >> and mary flores, what about you? same set of questions. >> so in my race, i hear gender come up quite a bit, and i hear it from democrats, from non-party affiliated or independent voters, and from republicans. there seems to be a real hunger for change and for folks who can work across the aisle with folks on the other side of the aisle. and over and over again i hear from people that maybe it's time we have more women in congress. >> mm-hmm. >> and i don't just hear that from women. i hear it from men as well. >> when men say it, what do you think they're thinking? >> i think they're thinking that there's gridlock, that there's too much partisanship, that folks are not working together in the best interests of

>> my pleasure. good to be with you. >> let's start with something people, viewers always want to know, why five days out from the midterms are these e-mails coming out? are they coming from the bannons of the world? >> look, i don't think we know where they're coming from, but it's just the most recent example of a member of the president's inner circle lying about their actions during the course of the campaign. roger stone said just a couple of days ago he had no communications with the trump campaign about wikileaks. we now know that's a lie. that he was e-mailing steve bannon directly about those, and then three days later, of course, the first stolen e-mails are released. so, i think it's just more evidence as to why we have to protect robert mueller's investigation, be sure he is allowed to complete his work, and take us to wherever the facts lead us. and we have a number of bills pending in congress to protect mr. mueller and prevent political interference or prevent his firing.

our republican colleagues won't move forward on any of them, but i think this underscores the importance of this investigation continuing to its conclusion, and then filing a report with congress so we can take whatever action is appropriate. >> it appears that mueller has some very key people, not just those who flipped like paul manafort, but also those like don mcgahn, the departed white house lawyer, and steve bannon who i just mentioned, who are providing all kinds of information. i want to play for you what steve bannon admit today me under questioning, which is that if donald trump was in the loop about the trump tower meeting, that would be very concerning because he saw it as treasonous-style behavior. take a look. >> what about it made it treasonous in your view? >> professionally paul manafort, i don't think ought to ever have -- you know, people from other countries, russians or whatever, come in and try to get opposition research. >> if a candidate knows about that in advance, are they part of treasonous behavior by your standard? >> i think you have to call into

strict guidelines from the republican strategists who say, stay away from most of the key swing purple districts because you don't help? >> right. this is a tale of two midterms. you have democratic senators trying to run in bright red states where the president is extremely popular. that's why he's focusing on those states. that's why his travel is focused there. in the house you have a republican majority that's dependent on suburbs. suburban areas with lots of college educated women who don't like the president very much, but may like their member of congress a great deal. we've got a lot of districts like carlos curbelo in florida, in california where the republican candidate is running considerably ahead of donald trump because he or she has his own connection, his own identity with his constituents in that specific district. >> so, let's go, then, to the actual voters, donna. you've run these kind of turnout campaigns, and early voting has become a much more significant piece of it. look here, half a million or so early ballots. one-third of the total came from

see it anywhere else. women candidates who are drawing on a movement to change congress live on the beat. also tonight, his tori michael is at the table to talk about the revelation of a big secret from that nixon watergate investigation, and the repercussions today. i'm looking forward to that. but i begin with developments in this russia probe. donald trump reportedly blaming one of his own top lawyers who was one of the most important lawyers he's had in the past two years, don mcgahn, blaming him for bob mueller's progress. reports tonight trump had a never disclosed blow out with don mcgahn blaming him for the entire mueller probe. mcgahn is at the center because trump once asked him to fire mueller, which mueller told him about in more than 30 hours of questioning. cnn reporting the trump grouft about the cloud, the investigation is casting over his presidency with trump fixated on mueller. meanwhile roger stone hiring a new lawyer who arranged a lie detector test to basically try to corroborate roger stone's
