Were less than 20 days until the u. S. President ial election and both campaigns are heading into their last lap focusing on must win swing states a democratic contender joe biden has returned to a hard fought michigan which hes hoping to flip back to blue in november if the polls are reliable trumps the candidate playing catch up in this race and hes been trying to regain ground in Georgia Holding a large rally there despite the pandemic.

Now in macon georgia and so is our correspondent on the an s. If im in georgia their own Health Officials say 5600 people are in the i. C. U. There are 30000 hospitalizations and they say those are under estimates and here we have a major rally a lot of people gathering where you are how are things going down there. Theres certainly some concern in macon our local newspapers were speculating on the possibility of an outbreak after this event fire all just have said that theres a 98 percent chance that somebody at this rally is coded 1000 positive so there is concern here there is even a billboard on i 75 the highway going toward the event that took a little bit ironically said super spreader event this way but the people who went today Event Supporters his fans were not concerned now that coordinators were loading people into buses and mast hundreds of people getting on buses shuttle buses taking them to the event that was the only way to get there not on foot not by personal car and this didnt seem to concern most people although i spoke to one woman who was wearing a mask in line to the bus i and i asked her are you not worried about getting on there and she looked hesitant but she said you know what i willing to risk it to see trump and i think thats why fire all just are worried about trumps events like this because they see it as him encouraging people who would otherwise socially distance to not do so just to see him before the election these risks beg the question i mean why trump is in georgia at all its a traditionally republican state and they want to in 2016 so whats he doing there. Well one biden supporter put it this way he said if trump is in georgia this close to the election his Campaign Must be in trouble thats because georgia has gone republican since the last time they elected a democrat in 1902 that was bill clinton won by a slim majority but since then its been firmly in the pocket of the Republican Party thats trumps party now trump looks like hes in a little bit of trouble here latest polls show biden head or neck and neck with trump which is somewhat unexpected but some pollsters put this down to changing demographics here you have a rising latino population they tend to vote democrat and then black americans who vote overwhelmingly democrat are going to the polls in higher numbers and were seeing that with early voting so this could turn georgia into a swing state this election and it should be noted where you are in macon that county actually went for Hillary Clinton in 2016 and now were seeing biden consistently ahead in the polls not necessarily in georgia but nationally in many swing states so what effect is that data having on both campaigns as theyre looking towards the election just a couple weeks away well i think you can see trump coming to georgia is an indication that some places that he thought he had on lock down he does not have so youre going to see him going to places that might have not been on the bill a few months ago when he thought the swing states certain swing states where his but you know his supporters and he himself dont seem concerned about the polls and they have good reason to doubt that because of what happened in 2016 when clinton was expected to win and she didnt so you see overwhelming enthusiasm on trumps side but the polls say otherwise are we dont leave it there i mean s. F. In macon georgia where donald trump is as well thanks very much.
