In exactly 2 weeks the United States will hold an election the whites of which it has never seen a combination of early voting along with mail in an absentee ballots means 2 things there is more time to cast a ballot and it will take more time to count them all if early voting is an indicator joe biden will become the 46 president with a comfortable margin of victory how likely is a donald trump comeback is a 2nd Trump Electoral College win is that possible tonight we crunch the numbers im bring coffee this is the day. Im. From fish the greatest president ever were city of the city but for trump in our area larger than it was 4 years ago. For president father cheney who are the braves and you know if we win wisconsin we win the whole ballgame or i think trump is the best man with the bag unfortunately. d the state appropriation is in the book that is not too long but. Also coming up a Search Engine so ubiquitous is its name is a verb every day almost everyone googles something tonight try searching these terms google Us Department of justice and land mark also. According to the wall street journal 90 percent of all internet searches go through google. That is power and it comes with responsibility today google is more than a Search Engine we have Global Company thats coming to the Building Products for everyone. And to our viewers watching on p. B. S. In the United States and to all of you around the world welcome we begin the day with the politics of patience lots of patience that is what politicians and voters alike will need beginning of imber 3rd election day in the United States we are all used to those marathon president ial campaigns but this year the election itself has morphed into an election season early voting is already taking place and once election day is over the tallying of melon balance and absentee ballots will last days perhaps weeks i have covered u. S. Elections since 1902 and this is the 1st time that the media is bracing for an Election Night with no clear winner patients and maybe a virtue but it is not one many of us have in abundance hence the search for clues in the information we already have early voters they may not be electoral oracles but in 2020 they do provide us with some important clarity in just a moment we will pour over the data and ask what do these numbers portend for donald trump and joe biden but 1st the messaging from both campaigns on this tuesday 2 weeks before election day. We are rounding the tour and we have the vaccines coming and all but even without were rounding the turn. People are pandemic out you know that depend demick down thats why its so great would you govs done hes opened up his state to doing great we pioneered lives and by the way you get it you know like i say here i am im here im here and no music i can jump into this audience should kiss everybody was. Donald trump was informed in january january 28th of the nature of this pandemic he was informed that it was lethal in proportion it would kill 5 times as many people as the flu he was informed it could hurt children he was informed that it was contagious and airbag out and and what did he do he stood at rallies and he stood before the American People and he didnt tell you what he knew. All right with 2 weeks to go lets bring in tom bowman your hes a Democratic Political strategist also the c. E. O. Of the Political DataCompany Target smart tom welcome to the day before we dive into the early voting numbers lets pull out far and wide for a moment what is your data telling you about the importance of the code 19 pandemic in this election. Its by far the most important issue its its impacting how people vote both in terms of the motive go in but also their vote choice were seeing it have a huge impact and is really recycled deck in this election weve seen early voting on an unprecedented scale already but some 30000000 votes have been cast and yet predicting the outcome has never been saved difficult thats what weve been hearing this entire season why is that. Well theres just so much more uncertainty than weve ever had before as you say over 30000000 votes cast early and while thats a massive number thats approaching the total number of early votes we saw in all of 2016 and you still have 2 weeks to go. Its going to potentially trip by election day and were looking at a turnout record so theres uncertainty in how these people are voting to the extent that some of these votes will not be counted there are numerous legal challenges that are still in play and will be in play through and perhaps beyond election day and a lot of uncertainty about turnout will the president s supporters turn out on election day as he insists they will well you know despite these uncertainties what picture can we paint so far made who are these voters these early voters whats whats driving them to cancel their ballots early. Well so weve got a really interesting picture at this point again with over 30000000 ballots cast its a pretty good sample to get a sense of where the enthusiasm lies at least at this point and what were seeing is that their early vote the people voted so far certainly seem democratic based on our models it looks like the democrats have about a 13 point advantage at this point again thats not success suggesting exactly how they will vote but just looking at their general partisanship that people are voting its really across the spectrum weve seen a huge increase in Younger Voters a Traditional Democratic constituency but on the other end of the range weve also seen a huge increase in seniors voting which certainly makes census people who are perhaps the most threatened in that risk theyre taking advantage of these opportunities to cast a safe ballot and what we have seen is that the senior voters certainly are favoring joe biden much more than they did Hillary Clinton in 2016 so they have the opportunity to really swing this election especially in key states like florida and arizona where they make up a huge share of the. Huge share of their early. As fascinating of this senior surge that youre talking about it with with so many of these early voters being democrats voting for joe biden should that boost confidence within the joe biden campaign. You know i think anyone who lived through the 2016 election is not going to have a lot of confidence at this point in terms of the models probabilistic scores that say what percent chance he has of winning because we saw that in 2016 and we saw them fail even in the polling theres uncertainty about whether or not those polls are accurately predicting turnout republicans say theyre going to come out in record numbers on election day and really theres no way to tell if thats true until it happens so based on that uncertainty youre seeing no one take anything for granted at this point on either side. Lets consider the battleground states for a moment these are the states that will decide this election in for our viewers weve put together a list here the states considered a toss up are florida iowa ohio georgia maine North Carolina that a ground states that are leaning democratic are michigan minnesota nebraska 2nd district New Hampshire pennsylvania wisconsin nevada and arizona and the one battleground state leaning republicans tonight is texas now with only that one state leaning republican tom does that does that spell doom for donald trump. Still its a very difficult path to reelection. He obviously won by the narrowest of margins in 26 team about 80000 votes across 3 states 3 of the closest states michigan wisconsin and pennsylvania as you said those states. Look. A good bit worse for him at this point certainly still very much in play but the landscape is is more dire for him at this point in those states and also hes playing defense as you noted in the states he didnt have to defend last time like arizona like texas. Like georgia like North Carolina and seen that many states in play hes really going to have to be able to run the Perfect Campaign from here on out a very disciplined campaign and unfortunately that hasnt been his friend. Is there a state or a group of states that trump must carry if he wants to reach that magical number of 270 Electoral College votes. Well he certainly cant afford to lose the states that he won last time because he didnt win by the most narrow margin so looking at states like florida arizona texas georgia North Carolina you know he could lose one of those at least the smaller ones among those cant lose 2 of them and then he would also have to repeat this performance through the midwest in michigan wisconsin and pennsylvania again looking at their early vote out of there the democrats are coming out in record breaking numbers at this point so hes going to find himself in a pretty people come election. Back in 2016 Hillary Clinton she won the popular vote but 3000000 more than trump is a repeat this year possible i mean can trump win the Electoral College and the election and lose the popular vote to biden by more than 3000000 the to me the popular vote isnt in question i dont think theres anyone that you would find on the Term Campaign who could argue with a straight face that he has an opportunity to win the popular vote so then it becomes a question of as you say can he win the Electoral College and certainly just based on the bias weve seen in the Electoral College towards these smaller states there is a path where he could lose by more than he lost in 2016 i mean were looking at turnout that could exceed 155 or 160000000 vote which is massive so he could lose by a larger margin than he didnt 2016 in the popular vote and if he does everything right in wins those close key states still win the Electoral College and it would be another shaath for the world watching and observing this election that is for sure tom bone your Democratic Political strategist with target smart target smart has a great web site we use it all the time to look at the numbers i can highly recommend if tommy appreciate your time in your insides tonight thank you. Thank you very much. Well the timing and the target are both remarkable today just 2 weeks before the u. S. President ial election the Trump Administration filed a landmark antitrust lawsuit against the Search Engine giant google it alleges the company is abusing its dominance of online searches to fend off rivals google controls about 90 percent of global web searches the company has long denied claims of unfair competition the lawsuit also alleges that google uses billions of dollars to pay phone manufacturers to ensure that it is the default Search Engine on those phones for hours this is the u. S. Governments most significant antitrust case since it sued microsoft more than 20 years ago. Well for more on this im happy to welcome to the day Jennifer Hubbell singe shes the director of technology and innovation policy at the conservative think tank the American Action forum jennifer its good to have you on the day is an antitrust case against google is it the right way to go forward here i mean isnt googles Business Model vindicated by the fact that it is the Search Engine of choice for most people. This to interest case is the latest in a series of different events that have been happening that have been kind of part of a broader tech class against these Big Tech Companies from both the left and the right weve seen calls to use anti trust from democrats in the house and now weve seen a Republican Attorney general as well and several state Republican Attorneys general filing a case against google what is important to remember though when we examine these cases is that any trust law has several different elements it depends on the market were talking about where they will have to show market power they also have to show that they these companies are abusing that market power and the need to show that its harming consumer welfare and so far what weve seen is there were its not clear evidence that google has engaged in such behavior and can the show can the court show a certain market i mean it has to prove that google is abusing its power in the u. S. Market but its going to have to prove that own laws as it been done before. When were looking at defining the market thats going to be a key point of contention in this in this case so the department of justice is probably going to trying to find the market as narrowly as possible to try and make it look like google has a larger markets here over things like advertising but when we look at how most of us consider the market for Something Like advertising is an incredibly Diverse Market that well see Companies Choosing between Online Advertising and more traditional options as well and even with an Online Advertising that companies have several different types of choices so this is the type of debate that were likely to see play out around this case as well as questions about what certain other markets may be involved in this announcement were 2 weeks away from a president ial election and also about the politics of this you mentioned that Republican Attorneys general are also plaintiffs in this case but theres not a single democratic attorney general what does that tell us. It tells us that we see a lot of calls to quote unquote breakout big tax from both the left and the right but for very Different Reasons we also have to think about the fact that weve seen a lot of conservative voices complaining about Big Tech Companies recently over other issues particularly online content moderation and on the left losing a lot of concerns about whether or not anti trance needs to be basically very heavily revised that kind of standard of the idea that big is bad or that these companies are are some towel exploiting smaller businesses and looking more at a focus on competitors rather than consumers what were seeing there are 2 very divergent criticisms and as a result the House Judiciary Committee report that was a result of their into trance investigation and only had democrats sign on to it and this current case only has republicans signed on to. Basically evaporate after the election if we see. Become the next president what happens next with antitrust is going to be very interesting following the 2020 alexion since weve had calls from both the left and the right over into trance we will likely see some form of action regarding investigations or continuing calls for these revisions that dont necessarily actually reflect the way that antitrust was intended to be used instead they reflect more political motives are also tools that antitrust is not the appropriate mechanism to resolve. People see this as a positive move but maybe they should be thinking about the long term and how long as my producer says how long its going to take these chickens to have. This is not something thats going to happen overnight is it. No sorry for people who are looking for you know a quick solution into trust certainly isnt your tool when you look back to those other tech cases you mention the Microsoft Case earlier also i. B. M. Those cases often take decades and even if a solution is found for example in the 18 tiebreak out thats usually pointed to as kind of the time that antitrust work it can be decades of enforcement and oversight after that so indeed this is just the start of an antitrust case and well likely see much more conversation but the fact that a case was filed is still significant and could still have a Significant Impact on the future of innovation as well as on decisions that are being made at Big Tech Companies its interesting you mention the word innovation because move moving forward isnt it possible that the litigation will take so long and in that Time Technology will change so quickly that once we get to i guess we get to the courtroom this entire case could be a moot point is that possible innovation can be one of the best competition policies well weve seen in the past is that sometimes when were looking at the market were looking at it far too small and the next animated thing is just around the corner so when were looking at net mainframe markets personal computing was around the corner while we were looking at web browsers and those concerns mobile is what really revolutionized the way we connect and the app economy completely changed those connections as well so we want to make sure that were not just focusing on the current big players that were understanding the way that the market is incredibly dynamic in this field and how that also explains. Jennifer director of Technology Innovation policy at the conservative think tank the American Action forum jennifer we appreciate your time tonight and your insides thank you thank you for having me.
