A 1000000 people displaced and at least 10 dead. And a commanding lead for the ivory coast president in an early Election Results dont rest continues as the opposition so the vote was neither free nor fat. Loss clinging to hope in turkey 2 days after the earthquake the search for survivors continues. Hello donald trump and his democratic opponent joe biden have embarked on the final 48 hours of campaigning to be the next president of the United States targeting 8 states on sunday ahead of tuesdays poll but will the 93000000 voters have already returned their ballots early President Trump has been campaigning in michigan where he won by less than one percentage point in 2016 bidens lead in the opinion polls has stayed relatively steady recent months but trump remains confident. Think the baidu in china wins when we win america with. One of the 16 michigan voters to fire this corrupt political establishment the new elected an outsider as your president who is finally putting america 1st. And i dont sound like a typical washington politician its because im not a politician this. Is i dont always play by the rules of washington or the washington this. Is because i was elected to fight for you and nobody is ever fought harder for you. Which i biden has been focusing on the state of pennsylvania which is key for a base campaigns if they want to possibly tree so out the vote like we never did before every day every day is a reminder of how high the stakes are how far the other side will go to try to suppress the turnout especially here in philadelphia president tropfest terrified of what will happen to pennsylvania he knows the people of pennsylvania get to have their say if you have your say he doesnt stand a chance in a moment well go to live live to she had the chance he is following the campaign from washington 1st paycheck our White House Correspondent kimberly help with the band Biden Campaign in pennsylvania complete pennsylvania very important to him and explain to us why. Yeah its increasingly looking like its one of a handful of states that could ultimately decide this election and if you want to know the importance of this state to both candidates just count the number of Campaign Appearances here in just the last 72 hours yesterday we were here with the Trump Campaign well today its the Biden Campaign who is making joe biden make a couple of stops here and guess what hes going to do hes also going to come back on monday right before november 3rd and hes going to do a number of stops in pennsylvania once again now these polls i should point out show that joe biden is in the lead but there have been some worrying signs in the last 24 hours for the campaign namely with voters of color but more specifically with male voters of color in the Africanamerican Community and as a result its no surprise then that we saw joe biden speaking at an africanamerican church here in philadelphia hes talking about issues that inner city and and urban people care about namely some of the violence that has been occurring and also a lot of the social unrest over some of the concerns with regard to the Police Shooting that took place this week of a Police Officer shooting a black man so as a result the Biting Campaign is in full force here in pennsylvania but also donald trump focusing on it heavily given the fact that this again is one of those states that could ultimately be a major and have a major role in deciding the outcome of who will win the white house and committee theres been tension within the president S White House tossed for so on coronavirus so that might not help heading into the election. I had no but theres always a little bit of tension when it involves the current virus taskforce that seems the latest controversy involves Dr Anthony Fauci once again the top Infectious Disease specialist he has been known to publicly support democratic causes and he gave a wide ranging interview where he criticized the president s coronavirus plan and said that the one that looks better going into a difficult winter will be bidens that upset the white house then one of the other things that upset the white house is another member of their team scott out list gave an interview to russia today and you know this is ministration does like anything connecting them to russia in any sort of way given there was that very long probe 1 into whether or not Donald Trumps campaign had colluded with russia so those kinds of appearances are a problem especially when voters are going to the polls so what weve seen is scott atlas coming out saying he apologizes for that interview he was not aware that to russia today was a registered for an agent in the United States once again shows just how jittery all of the campaigns are right now things are so fragile and as you said in your opening lauren this is an election that could be decided on a razors edge so Neither Campaign taking any chances can be ok thank you very much we have a time shes following the campaigns from washington he joins us now who the polls favoring at the stage. Its just very very close to the general theme and the swing state seems to be biden is usually ahead in Single Digits its just a matter of whether its in the margin of error or not however and in for example the a. B. C. Poll trump is ahead in one by a very small margin in florida for example so its all much of much as i think about it is more useful to look at some of the themes that were seeing in some of these polls for weeks now weve heard that the trunk campaign is banking on a large number of white voters without a College Degree who are going to be new voters who didnt vote in 2016 who will vote in this election and there has been huge amounts hundreds of thousands in this democratic demographic registering to vote however the New York Times found that a lot of the new voters in fact the majority of the new voters of that talking to the trends that are seeing is new voters are voting for joe biden so that would be pretty worrying for donald trump if thats true and consistently theyre finding that white voters and retirees and other core constituency for donald trump of the Republican Party they dont want to be taxed for example in florida there they have the concern about race issues or do you see you know calls for more equality and and reforming the police that trump is losing losing apparently in some states in florida for example release its its 5050. 00 so these are kind of the watering trends for trump having said that though x. E. Also saying that talking to trumps polling officials and they say that im more confident now than they were 33 weeks ago so thats interesting they have their own private polling and as kimberly was saying joe biden has concerns too particular with minority voters in places like like pennsylvania particularly Younger Voters who as we saw in the primaries are really looking for systemic change and like White Working Class wages without a College Degree simply think biden is just the same old same old maybe trump was disappointing but why go back to biden thats thats the problem the biden is having she have a tendency thank you very much indeed.
