Right now exclusive, a trump accuser is out front as the former president tells women, he will be their boat protector why is she speaking out now plus, show me the money? for special series on america's economy as trump is losing his edge on the number one issue for voters and the breaking news tonight, bracing for impact in florida about to get hit by a category four hurricane it has gone from owed for in ours the strongest to hit the united states in more than a year go live on the ground. Let's go outfront and good evening. I'm erin burnett outfront tonight, confronting trump on his own turf. New ads airing tonight hi it on television stations around maralago and bedminster trolling trump and targeted at national pickup for nonaffiliated voters to see the prominent republican critic of donald trump, george conway is releasing two ads featuring two of the women who have accused trump of sexual assault now, george conway knows trump really well. His exwife, kellyanne conway, is a longtime adviser of trump's and so george conway is targeting these ads with surgical precision. He knows they're not just airing on local television stations that trump gets in his home. So it turns on the tv, he sees them. There also airing on national stations and shows. Trump watches fox news, cnn, espn, and the golf channel. One of the ads is focused exclusively on journalists, natasha stoynoff, who testified under oath that she was assaulted by trump while interviewing him, and melania back in 2005. This is part of our story my name is natasha stoynoff in 2005, i went to interview donald trump at mara lago at one point, melania with upstairs to change your clothes for the next photo shoot and trump said to me, i want to show you this beautiful painting, this beautiful room. He leads me to this room, pushing back against the wall and starts kissing me forcefully and tried to push him, kept coming back at me. I was in shock and smothered than he had his hands here gets my shoulders i felt sick inside. I felt horrified trump, of course, has repeatedly denied the allegations, but stoynoff is someone on trump's mind. In fact, it was just two weeks ago that he brought her up during a press conference. And this one is a rider for people magazine who i actually thought was very nice. She came to maralago and you wrote the most beautiful story you've ever seen. It was a love story about melania and myself i love story. I mean, of course there enough set after trump sexually assaulted her when melania, who was seven months pregnant, was changing when meloni came back downstairs, she said i was nauseated. It didn't seem to register him in the slightest that what he'd done might have hurt or offended me or his wife now, stoynoff, it's going to be outfront in just a moment here's what's really interesting. Even though you just heard trump lauding stoyanovs article in people magazine, right? still talking about it moments later. This is how he talked about her her name was whoever. Let's say her name don't have it whatever her name was even though we talked about the wonderful love story that article that you wrote, it is clear that these new ads paid for by george conway are designed to get under trump's skin. It is clear that is the purpose, but they're also designed to remind women of things like this when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything, whatever you want to grab them by the now right now, cnn's latest poll shows trump trailing harris by ten points when it comes to women, that actually puts him exactly in line with how he performed in 2020 when he lost the election. So trump knows, women matter with she is why he's appealing to them now, even though his latest appeal to women is odd you will no longer be abandoned, lonely, or scared you will no longer be in danger. You're not going to be in danger any longer. You will no longer have anxiety from all of the problems our country has today you will be protected and i will be you are protector dasha stoynoff is outfront now for her first interview since this ad was released, natasha, thanks so much for choosing to speak out and because i say this in the context of when you first shared your story when you hoped that it might make a difference in 2016, you received death threats. She was e were under incredible threat. And yet you believe now it's worth the risk again to be heard, to make sure people hear what you have to say. Why do you feel it's worth that? it is a risk to come forward i feel that way in all the other women felt that way as well but the risk that the country faces if he wins again, is far greater to me. And i do think coming forward again right now could make a difference. I actually was in montana a few weeks ago and in a tenminute boride, i change someone's vote. A diehard trump supporter by telling your story. Yep so one voter at a time, and that is what matters. I we all we all know and look at these states last time and how razorthin these margins are these ads though. Obviously i know you're hoping unaffiliated voters will see them, that they will make a difference. They are of course also going to be in trump's homes. They're going to be on television. Maralago told us in bedminster they're going to be and all the networks that he watches faithfully or sporadically including this one, including morning joe right? that he will tune into. So you've covered trump for many years, right? the context of this is you would cover him as a reporter for people magazine. So you do know him. How do you expect he's going to respond? the same way. He always responds. Hell, call us liars. Hill right? some sort of outrageous tweet. Now, he may be extra careful so as not to do famous. I mean, he owes quite a few million dollars to somebody e. Jean carroll for defamation i don't know if he'll be careful this time, but i don't think he can control himself in that way have truth on our side. I know i have truth on my side and so it doesn't really bother me how he's going to respond. So as i was doing the introduction and i was playing part of what trump is saying two women now, as he is trying to move that margin just a little bit your ad comes as he is saying this, i just want to play part of that and we talked about how people would women would not have anxiety and fear if he wins. He also said this you will no longer be in danger. You're not going to be endanger any longer. You will be protected and i will be your protector. So what goes through your mind when you hear that when i first saw that clip, i laughed and then i sent it to the other women. I'm friends with several women who have been groped by him and i feel like we had like a universal like vomit onto our phones the fact that he's saying that he is not a protector of women. He is a predator of women in the incident that happened millennia seven months pregnant, as you've talked about, she goes upstairs to change for the next part of the photo shoot. You're alone with showed oh, shoot, i'm sorry. You're alone with trump he says, go look at this art veney assaults you she actually did respond to that allegation at one point. And let me just play what she said even the story that came out in people magazine the writer that she said that my husband took her to the room and start kissing her she wrote in the same story about to me that she saw me on fifth avenue and i said to her natasha how can we don't see you anymore i was never friend with her. I would not recognize her it's interesting there she knew the detail of what you said happened. She knew your name. She knew all of those things. Do you think though, that she at this point truly believes her husband and by the way, i had a friend with me that day when we bumped into melania trump so i have confirmation. Do i think she believes the women? yeah i can't imagine that she would marry somebody and not know what they're about so i'm assuming she does and assuming that she just tries to live with it but i'm not sure we'll see what happens in her memoir, which will see what's in there about that in an oped after trump won in 2016, you wrote it took months before the cruel truth dawned on me. Trump supporters knew we were telling the truth they just didn't care one thing i find interesting and we are pointing out recently on the show, natasha was that you know, 39% of women voted for trump the first time it went up, the second time everybody, this was all known and all of those cases, he's doing the same now and polling as he was last time, we'll see what happens so do you think anything has changed well, i have hope that we have millions of new voters young people who did not know of our stories before in to 68 years is a long time for a young voter, right? and so my hope is to talk to them and my hope is also that since he has been civilly found liable for sexual assault by a jury that people will open their minds up a bit and say, these women are telling the truth. All right. Well, natasha, thank you very much. I appreciate your time. And thank you for speaking out. I know, you know, to kind of open open all that again, it's not a small thing, so thank you. Thanks a much. And let's go now to our panel. Jane, let me start with you, where natasha just finished when she said she's it's not as if she's trying to relitigate with this with people who've already made up their minds. Although i'm sure she would be happy if that's the case, but she's talking think to the many people who are voting this time around, who maybe were too young to really understand this or process all this eight years ago that this might be new information for them and matter to them, what do you think? well, first of all, i really want to thank natasha for telling her story. I think the challenge is twofold. One, the efforts should be to get people to not just not vote for donald trump, but to vote for kamala harris, where we are in a system in which we have two options, essentially so my concern is that this is an effort that is going to turn people off trump, but then doesn't seem to then make the logical transition towards, you should vote for kamala harris. I think the second point here is that my real concern is that so much of people's views of donald trump are baked in, and i don't mean that as being a good thing. I don't think it's good that there are you can tell your story about what happened to you as a result of his actions. And people are going to respond with their we knew that like that's horrifying to me, but i might mad it's my concern here is that the view of donald trump is so baked in that it even influences how we cover him, that he can say things that are objectives insane. And it just is kind of like, well, that's just trump being trump, which is to meet ridiculous, but i think i'm just i'm a little concerned about what this means moving forward. I think that it really is to just how strange this moment is that this is an allegation, and this is a story in which four most politicians before trump, that would be career ending but trump has managed in some ways to blot out the sun in many ways. And so i think that's a concern for me. Well, look, you got mark robinson still in the race and i don't i don't want to go down, hold a sack there, but i mean, just to make the point of the world that we live in megan, what do you say though when you have ads like this coming out? yes, they are targeted in two ways. One specifically at one individual tool which can be very important because it can totally influence how he behaves, what he posts, what he says in these next days but also at these unaffiliated voters out there yeah, i think absolutely these are the women who are independent, who are these undecided voters in the battleground states, these ads hit them in a place that is going to turn them off from voting for donald trump. It is just showing that heat, the contrast between his leadership style and the vice president's leadership style. This coupled with when he says that he is a protector of women when, he says the horrible things he had about jewish people are just making women feel like a secondclass citizen these are all things that just add onto how women feel about him. And i just these these are not helping him with independent women, which is going to decide the election so these are incredibly powerful and meaningful. And i do think it will impact women at the end of the day scott, does this go? get under trump's skin? i mean, what i was planning saying there about him talking about how wonderful the article was in detail, was just a few weeks ago, right? so he remembers this article from 20 years ago in detail because he cares about that sort of stuff. And then he goes as if he didn't remember natasha, his name i mean, you could see it. He's he's angry, right? so does this get under his skin i mean, if he turns on the television to virtually any channel, any news channel 24 hours a day. He's going to see a constant and consistent barrage of allegations. So i would hope that if i were in his shoes, i wouldn't be too overly impacted by another set of television and commercials, negative television commercials. Like what he might encounter. I mean, he's being attacked on tv and every swing state all across the country, every hour of every day, so throw another log onto that fire. So i don't know if he'll be impacted by or not, but there's already quite a bit of negative stuff out there that he's probably taking it on a regular basis. Alright. We'll all stay with me because we have more to talk about here in just a moment. Also, our special series show me the money on america's economy tonight, we're going to take you to two counties that voted for obama, then trump, then biden so how will they vote this time i always tell people i'm not a republican, i'm a real. I think they're all terrible plus breaking news vice president kamala harris and a brand new interview going for trump and that's part of the problem with donald trump. He's just not very serious and the biggest hurricane to hit the united states in more than a year accelerating intensifying as we speak expected to be a category four when it hits florida in our she is the smartest sunday is ever done this for a living james was famous for well winning races, teams believes that change width it's the economy stupid apologizing to know what that meant? and is it to catch her? i am saying publicly what people are saying things out.

Now a cnn special event, the vice presidential debate tuesday at nine tonight, kamala harris on the attack you see for donald trump, our economy works best if it works for those who own the big skyscrapers not those who actually build them, not those who wire them not though. Mop the floor is closing the gap with trump on the economy. Trump does hold a sixpoint advantage for voters, but it was a 12 point advantage when he was against president biden and tonight and part two of the show me the money series here on outfront about american economy let me phil mattingly reports from two true swing districts in battlegrounds, michigan and pennsylvania breaking for obama twice, then flipping to trump and then back to biden phil is outfront region has been screaming and crying out. Hey, we're here hey we're here as we drive with hurley coleman through saginaw, michigan, the raw tension or we're trying to change, we're trying to grow, we're trying to develop, but it all things that we're doing between what was and what could be. And yet, nobody truly paid his attention until we became a battleground county thrust to the forefront of the 2024 campaign. Same way as this town. 350 miles away, your drive down on that industrial corridor and 12th street just four sharps erie, pennsylvania home to fill cornyn. And what happened to that street you can drive down it. It's pretty decimated now at two of the most important battleground counties, because i know my conversation at home, it's like, how are we going to pay for this? in two of the most important battleground states all the suppliers that i used to pick up the phone, i need this and do this. I mean, there's a ten minutes away from it. Sharp replaced by what? let's see the one right down the street was an august industrial supply. They were really good with cutting tool and oils what they teach in there now, knitting, knitting place go gdp through the eyes of two families who have lived through dramatic change. The coleman's embody saginaw, his journey from the manual he fracturing boom, the great migration at the 90% of the adults in the church were employed fulltime. We can by the time i became in the pastor, that percentage was still a lot of the adult percentage of population was still there was connected to the auto industry, was still there. Pastor hurley coleman's congregations still strong but those ties to manufacturing and right now in our congregation, i have one person fulltime employee by the auto industry for his son, the ceo of a nonprofit here new industries have created. Finally, some hope as the store and it out, i'd like for us to be the tale. There we're resilient and that we do bounceback while the coleman's backed president joe biden even got a visit from him this spring. Vice president kamala harris has sparked marked a whole new level of energy. It's the conversation is not how bad biden was or how good trump was, but what possibly could happen with with a harris presidency. I think there's more opportunistic hope. That's been created in the last few weeks, but with an election just months away, i will say in our line of work i'm nervous i'm nervous about the future concern driven by what a trump administration may do to poverty programs in a community, or shrubs hardline, border stance and firstterm pandemic era stimulus checks resonate some of the things that trump was able to do was stems around the ability for them to be able to maintain some dollars. It hasn't always come back to them and observation echoed by his father. There are people who think that these stimulus checks that came out during the pandemic things of that nature are something that's going to happen again for phil kern, my grandfather did this by father did this. My uncles, my brother's that i did it. My kids aren't doing it that tells you everything, right? deep personal passion for a family trait tool and diming as he confronts economic numbers, he's just not feeling. I get the i see that's tablet a lot wages going up. Why did you go and talk to my friends, your wages going up now? know whose wages to go up? he says that inform a political approach. The promises that are made by the political class do you believe any of them at this point, we just tell people i'm not a republican, i'm a realist. I think they're all terrible leaving in his view, this binary business choice. I have two phone numbers for this one's kamala harris, and that's when donald trump, we're going to call. We got it. You're going to go bankrupt. If you don't figure inside your lose your home, you're gonna, during foreclose on, you who are you going to call probably going to call trump two different men from two different walks of life work, but unwavering and their dedication to two different communities long after the political spotlight fades. What was oh, what was outdated is above his experience at transformation and rebirth. And i think that's what that's what those silos represent in this the future future for this region mean so thoughtful about how they get to their different decisions here and the one michigan family, the pennsylvania family, up an eerie. So you had you get econ speeches today. One from each candidate. And by the way, trump's done you town halls on electric vehicles, harrison he's given speeches. They actually have talked a lot about the economy are they breaking through it all? i think what's so striking one is your first point, which is there are actually thoughtful views on policy when you talk to people out in the country, i know some people that might think that it's trump's blunt force rhetoric on the economy that wins. And certainly it resonates. He talks about the things that you hear when you're in counties like this well it was fascinating about the vice president's speech today is just how much of the key pillars of it or what you're hearing in the community, whether it's about manufacturing jobs, steel kerner, obviously going to support trump talked a ton. We had a very lengthy and detailed conversation about apprenticeships and why that's so important in his train, he'd like to see those standards raised in uniform. That was in the harris policy proposal today? whether or not they break through. I think he's still very much an open question, very much an open question. All right. Next installment tomorrow. Next installment is tomorrow. Offers. I do want to note that the most fascinating part of this entire process was finding out that phil corners wife is actually related to you, which i want to be very clear about. We did not know. No. We're talking to them. She had made us pepperoni roles. They were absolutely delicious. And then she asked if i knew who you were. It's definitely mean pepperoni rolls yes, i am i was like, i will tell you so you anything about erin burnett? she's like, oh, were related were second turns out she is my second cousin, which was not the plan nor did we know going in, but she's also probably the real star of the family. I will say we've had a number of random occurrences, including our next story. We're going down to north georgia. This trump country. We go to a plant, a green energy plant, really the cornerstone of biden's success on green energy. And a area that is trump country through and through a trend, tell that story. What people are thinking and why the plant manager, ohio state grad in georgia also an alum. It's nice to see friends. Yeah, never know you're going to run into, you never know, when they say it's a big country of hundreds of millions of people who related burnett. All right. Thank you so much and next breaking news about vice president harris in a brandnew interview making her case on an issue that could be slipping away from trump. You're going to hear that next and the state that it could all come down to what you just heard there with the corners from pennsylvania right tonight morning, america will most likely not know who wins that's aid on election day wow, can you imagine how long this could be? that is a special report outfront tonight people in america were watching and then the next day our world change.

And this is cnn breaking news. Don't trust trump. Those are the words from kamala harris sending that message moment to go to voters who say in poll after poll that they believe that trump would be better in the economy then she would be topic economists in our country from nobel laureates two people at moody's and goldman sachs i've compared my plan with his and said my plan would grow the economy. His would shrink the economy. Some of them have actually assessed that his plan would increase inflation and invite a recession by the middle of next year so the facts remain that donald trump has a history of taking care of very rich people my perspective on the economy is when you grow the middleclass americans economy is stronger. And there's empirical evidence to prove my point, correct? alright, everyone's back with me so meghan, now we're here together so obviously, the economy has been one of the strongest areas for trump immigration and the economy. But the question is, does it make sense for her? i mean, is this the way to address it? and i mean, she's talking in big big terms and obviously more specific ones as well. But talking about inflation and then recession, is that going to convince people? look, i think she should be doing more local media as and hitting people in their in their areas and where they are watching at their nightly news when they're cooking dinner for their families on issues that are going to impact them directly in their homes and in their regions. So very specific local market, specific, specific and to in talking about what is impacting them, the things that are impacting with wisconsin are probably different than what's impacting north carolina gas prices are coming down. Grocery prices are coming down across the country. But people in wisconsin, in north carolina in these battleground states might not be feeling that. I do think doing more of a local media strategy is probably better than we're not all sitting here talking about the one interview that she's done in the past couple of weeks, we would be talking about interviews that she's doing every single day out on the trail, which i do think what it reach voters more than i do think it would help her on the economy and perhaps being more personal. I mean, scott, here is more of what harris is trying to lean in two in this national interview. And we'll talk more about the fact that it's national in a moment. But first here's what she's saying we have ambition, we have aspirations, we have dreams. We can see what's possible. We have an incredible work ethic but not everyone has the access to the opportunities that allow them to achieve those things. But we don't lack for those things. But not everyone gets handed stuff on a silver platter. And so my vision for the economy, i call it an opportunity economy is about making sure that all americans, wherever they start, wherever they are, have the ability to actually achieve those, those dreams and those ambitions and that specific moment, scott, she doesn't of course time i silver platter specifically and explicitly to trump, but it's a phrase she's used to attack him after the debate. It's clearly implications. She's trying to make does that break through? does talk like this. Have some people say okay, maybe i should reconsider who were in that group that trust him on the economy more yeah i'm still confused about which billionaire rich people are good and which are bad trump is i guess bad. The people who support trump or bad the billionaires that she goes around with, i guess we're good. I think it's a very muddled thing and i still don't understand. I think today was a mess for harris, me, joe biden went on the view today and said he delegated all sorts of authority to have her on domestic policy. We know that the biden administration is not popular on domestic and economic policy. She gave a speech today saying, we've got to move past the policies that people think it failed. Well, people think the last four years or a failure. And from what i can tell from this interview tonight which was really a home game going on with this particular interviewer was like effectively interviewing with her campaign's press secretary for terry. She had nothing nothing new to say on the economy beyond this ridiculous pablum, you wouldn't talk about aspirations and dreams, their crushed in this country because of inflation. And these kinds of interviews. And the day that she had today are not going to solve it. So jake, can i just ask you about where this happened? right to meghan's point, which is she could be doing local knew she has done some local interviews. Right. But she did the joint interview with doing more local news, right? she did a cnn interview. But nationally since then, she hasn't. And now she's doing as msnbc, which is friendly turf, right? i'm not going to be pejorative about it. It just it's msnbc that's their brand is that is that the audience she needs to be talking to jamie mean it would appear to me that that core base of that audience is already voting for her so she's trying to win people over what is she doing? i think that i mean, she's doing a ton of earned media media and she's doing a ton of interviews. She did local pennsylvania news just a couple of weeks ago, but look like trump goes on fox news and they tell him how great he is and he says how much he likes fox news, that's been going on for nine years now. So i think that doing you know, it's important to do big national media. I want her to be doing media every single day, but you know, i get her emails from my mba she is doing national media. She's doing local media. She's talking to people. She's going on podcasts. She's doing conversations, she's having town halls. I think that there's a townhall on a couple of weeks with telemundo i think that the work that she's been doing, it's one of the hardest things about being in media is that i'm aware that i will say i want you to do more media and then i will be she will do more media and then she will get criticized for doing more media. But i think it just so important to remember that we are not the audience here. The audience or the actual undecided voters who haven't really thought about this election very much. And they have their own concerns, okay, that's where i think it's really important to just keep doing it. I am curious though to that point and i think highly of the interviewer herself, but to that point, meghan why do msnbc because viewers with msnbc they're not the undecided voter, right? i mean, you know, i mean, and her base is already very energized and turning out for her. I mean, i know you can't ever give up on that if you're a candidate. But where should she be going to reach out to undecided unaffiliated voters. So we're all talking about it. So whether she does msnbc here's cnn. We're all sitting here talking about it. So it's still getting covered there. It still is getting in broad strokes. She's still getting a lot of coverage from the interview that she does. She, you know, she could go to bloomberg, she could go to cnbc to do an econ interview, but i do think i'd love to have her right here to do any khan interview. I do think stephanie role dads have a reputation for being a person who is very knowledgeable on the issue. Yeah. And is a good interview shows and for her to do and it is getting covered. So i do think it's a smart thing to do. I also agree that she should be doing more podcasts and more social media things with influencers and meeting people where they are a lot of youth voters are on tiktok and that's where they get their news. So yes, she should be meeting those people where they are as well. But i do i don't think it really matters what networks she's on because we're all covering it all right. So scott, i want to ask you about something president trump said today. This was just an interesting point. He has been saying that different groups of people he's been very specific about who they are that if they vote for him they should have their head examined those are the words he's been using repeatedly in ways that could be very offensive. These individual groups. But nonetheless, this is what he's saying. So here's what he's saying about senior voters any senior doesn't vote for trump we're going to have to send you to a psychiatrist to have your head examine any jewish person that votes for her, especially now, her, the democrat party should have their head examined if they love israel, anybody that votes for democrat or kamala, especially because she's this the worst ever, you should have your head examined and then on monday, scott, i just don't want to leave a group out. He's talking about the catholics and he said, any catholic that votes for comrade kamala harris should have their head examined all right. It's got laughing aside. You've got seniors, jewish people, people who love israel and catholics would all have their head examined if they're not voting for trump. How does talking to people like that help trump? well, quite a few people will vote for harris. So i think we should all open up ahead examination doctor's office will have plenty of people to a lot of things. Look, it's it's look, look, look it's a joke. He's literally it's a turn of phrase. It's a funny aside. It's a joke. These are not meant to be offensive statements and i think people who are trying to spin it that way or being a willfully dishonest, it's a joke. He's saying, i'm so much better than her that how could you possibly make a different decision? it is the same kind of statement that politicians make in every election. My opponent is terrible. I'm better how could you possibly make this decision it is a joke and jane will people can take it as such as this one of those things where people, people actually get the joke and people who take it seriously are the ones missing the moment? i know absolutely not. Like at what point has this particular campaign ever implied that it is a fun? jovial efforts? this campaign has been largely based on the idea that if you do not support trump you are a stupid idiot who hates israel, who hates america, and who should obviously, they seek psychiatric care. Like, i think that i'm aware that many people find donald trump funny. But in this particular effort with what he's saying, the idea is not how, how, how stupid, good up to vote for others. But no, it's very serious, like it's not i am so much better. It's you are so stupid. How could you possibly favor this other candidate? and it's been so interesting because again and again and again, donald trump gets the benefit of the doubt for absolutely no reason. I was just reading a piece. You mentioned the economy talking about tariffs earlier. I was just reading a piece in a conservative outlet that essentially said, oh no, he won't do tariffs just like he didn't build a wall. So it just things he says and so people are supposed to vote for him for doing things that he doesn't talk about, but don't for for him because of things that he does talk about that he won't do it doesn't make any sense to me at all. And then you got to get a whole new thing about why he should be examined so thank you for agonist scott. I appreciate all of you think thank you. And next, officials in all important pennsylvania tonight with a pretty grim warning for all of us, which is that we probably won't know who wins pennsylvania on election day. And god knows, we all know what that probably means. Right? it means we don't know who wins the whole thing and they are sounding the alarm in pennsylvania about conspiracy we know that there's going to be a lot of allegations. They're just not based on any truth whatsoever. I'm breaking news the southeast about to be hit by a category four hurricane 70 million people in its path.

Ask your provider for cologuard. I did it i'm kayla tausche covering the un general assembly and this cnn tonight trump zeroing in on pennsylvania, the state that could decide the election. And a state that he has already accusing of fraud we have this stupid stuff where you can vote 45 days early. I wonder what the hell happens during that 45. Let's move she these votes we've got about 1 million votes and then let's move than what happened the last time was disgraceful, including right here all right. That comes as pennsylvania officials tonight are warning, it is unlikely the world will know who wins the state on election night. Therefore, who wins the election probably sara murray is outfront frustration in savannah pennsylvania. The odds that people are going to know who won pennsylvania on election night? hey, almost zero, almost zero, tightening race in the commonwealth of pennsylvania, 43 states allow election workers to start preparing mailin ballots before election day to speed up the time it takes to count them pennsylvania does not. And it leads to a perception that the vote count is delayed. That's been here no one's sitting around waiting. Everybody is aware of how time sensitive and how highly scrutinized the election results are in pennsylvania. We want to get rid of mailin voting we know that there's going to be a lot of allegations. They're just not based on any truth whatsoever about pennsylvania where they throw the poll watchers out, they throw them out from the moment when polls are closed until the erase can be called, that window time is the biggest opportunity for miss and disinformation to spread. We don't want them to find any ballots set 4:00 in the morning and it okay. So it's like just after 6:00 a. M. We're headed to the elections warehouse in philadelphia. It's just a little bit a preview of what's coming in november, tightening race in the commonwealth. I mean, they held for these election workers that they have figured out ways to expedite the process because they got a lot of heat when it takes a while. It isn't just what they did election you will not accept what's going on. Just for the election workers today. Again, this is special election, so maybe 5,000 mailin ballots, much smaller than what we're going to see in november, but it gives you an idea of the process that process and i know this is an election administrator or myself for ten years takes time to do it right? to review the envelope, to make sure the voters signed it and dated to open that envelope to extract the secrecy envelope, to open the secrecy to extract the ballot to flatten the ballot before you count a single vote. And there's a reason those steps couldn't happen before election day other than this law and pennsylvania, it is not benefit any candidate. It is not benefit party in 2022, the pennsylvania state legislature increased funding to cover the cost of elections but thanks to political gridlock in the state it's capital, attempts to change the law preventing mailin ballots from being prepped ahead of time have failed i mean, we would be able to finish on election day if all we had to do is do the scanning portion the election workers are just getting started down at the end there they bring in these trays a balance and they started by reviewing that outer envelope, looking for the date, looking for the signature. Another going to move stepbystep through the warehouse from there. Having been here for the 2020 election and having every election worker i talked to say, we wish we could have been these mailin ballots earlier to be here again, four years later and have every election worker i talked to say the same thing, like it just seems crazy that it wasn't fixed yeah. And this is not a partisan issue. You have red counties and blue counties all asking for the same thing. So it really comes down to a matter of does the legislature have the will to pass the law that most other states already have or not. Are you hopeful that the legislature's suddenly going to remedy this issue? no, i don't think so this step is called the flight happening. They're literally taking the ballots, flattening them to make sure that they're ready to go into the machines and we scan mean you're a republican. Why do you think there's so much? she must trust of the mail ballots system in the republican party at this point. Unfortunately, i think it just comes down to the fact that the former president said that the ballots can't be trusted. And therefore, people don't trust them. The mailin voting is it working. Its corrupt counting votes takes time and not knowing the results on election night is not a sign of anything that's wrong. It's a sign that the election workers are still doing their job now it took four days for news outlets to call pennsylvania and the presidential race in 2020, there are some reasons to think it might go faster this time. One is that officials are just expecting fewer mailin ballots now that it's not a pandemic. And also these counties have invested in ballot scanners faster machinery to try they get these ballots moving. And part of that bucket of money and it came from the state legislature requires the counties that took it to count the ballots continuously, which means they're going to be counting overnight. Although election officials would certainly prefer to start this process earlier, erin alright, sara, thank you very much. Wow. And again, here we are in uncharted territory of how all this plays out all right, well, next, bracing for category four hurricane, it had been quiet. It seems until now, and fears are growing in florida as helene gains strength is on the verge of becoming a massive and powerful storm the biggest in more than a year the latest forecast next arrived. We look at the news leak and ask questions like, what does a comedy show doing on cnn people have spoken racist to say. You go to hell and all that weight up freestyle. That's too much i want donald.

Next on cnn all right breaking news on hurricane helene now on a collision course with florida, and that storm has rapidly intensifying, expected to be a massively powerful category four when it hits an hour's, it is a sprawling storm expected to be the strongest storm to hit the united states in over a year. And it is right now nearly the entire your state of florida is under tropical storm and hurricane warnings much of the southeast also under threat 70 million people. The storm surge will be huge and the shoreline bracing for the worst bringing with it lifethreatening storm surges, catastrophic wind damage. I want to go to derek van dam. He is in the panhandle of florida right now oh, and he is going to be there as the storm hits. Could obviously it could be very direct hit where you are derek, the entire shoreline under threat, category four is the expectation tell me about where you are right now, what you're looking for? yeah. Erin, the verbiage from pretty strong verbage coming from the national weather service in tallahassee, very near here, saying that there's increasing confidence that storm surge near your apalachee bay will be catastrophic if not, in survival or unsurvivable. And if this storm surge, men there's your meant tool is any indicator of what's to come with approaching hurricane helene than we need to prepare for the worst here and apalachicola, this shading of blue represents where water could inundate this area with a landfall and category four hurricane, which of course is what we have in the forecast, this yellow represents the water levels for a category three that red, of course, indicating level too. But we have a forecast of ten 15 feet of storm surge that's over twice as tall as i am. This could be a onceinageneration storm for people here. And one that they feared the most. And the reason that's so susceptible is because of the shallow nature of the gulf of mexico over my right shoulder. You can go out 50 miles and is still only have about ten feet of water underneath you and then that shelf drops off considerably. So it doesn't take much of a storm to push up the water at reaches that shelf and it has nowhere to go, but inundate this very low line area known as the big bend of florida. I like to call it the catcher's mitt. I want to show you these graphics because the storm is looking very impressive on satellite, but not only is it growing in strengthening and intensity, it's growing in size as well. And that's going to be key to the storm because we will feel the impacts well outside of the center and it's also going to be responsible for pushing this threat of hurricane storm force winds inland as well as the potential for life a catastrophic and dangerous flooding that we anticipate here across central portions of georgia into south carolina as well. Erin, this is so kind of a triple punch here. We've got storm surge catastrophic winds, and extreme rainfall
