Out campaigning in pennsylvania, holding her first big, solo speech since her Convention Speech in july. She talked about what her platform would be as a potential first lady. She would focus on cyberbullying. Critics noting there is a bit of irony to that given her husbands name calling and twitter tirades. Heres Melania Trump. It is never okay when a 12yearold girl or boy is marked, bullied or attacked. It is absolutely unacceptable with someone with no name hiding on the internet. And going into this final weekend out here on the campaign trail, donald trump will be holding just a flurry of Campaign Events, including notably that he will be returning here to North Carolina twice over the next four days and he will be holding a big, closing message rally. His last rally of the campaign monday night in New Hampshire. Thank you very much. On one side of the ball for Hillary Clinton, if she wants to win North Carolina, she needs to get the minority vote out much more than it was and get young voters out in big numbers. And to do that, shes using key supporters. Covering that for us cnn senior washington correspondent jeff zelleny here with more. Who they have out there and what are they doing . Pharrell joining bernie sanders. Trying to shake democrats and some trump skeptics to attention with a blunt warning that she could actually lose. She did that yesterday in North Carolina and still trying to disqualify donald trump. Something she thought she had done after those three debates. But her optimistic Closing Argument is now replaced by a stark message about the prospect of a trump presidency. America will have a new president. It will either be me or my opponent. The question is, what kind of change are we going to see . Are we going to build a stronger, fairer, better america . Or are we going to fear each other and fear our future . Focused on expanding the map. She is defending blue territory in pennsylvania and michigan. Both states have gone democratic in the last six president ial races. This morning, we are getting another look at where shes setting her sights for the final push here. In addition to pittsburgh and detroit, shes heading to cleveland followed by florida and philadelphia on saturday. A quick trip to New Hampshire, back to ohio and that final Campaign Event in philadelphia with president obama on monday night. Alisyn, that is a central question here. Can president obama help pull her over the finish line. Theyll be together on election eve. Lets try to get some of those answers, jeff. Thank you for all that. Joining us amy is a clinton supporter. Good morning, senator. Well, good morning, alisyn. Its great to be on. Great to have you on. Things are getting intense. The race is getting tight. We are in the final stretch here. In some pivotal states, the race is neck and neck. Let me pull up a couple polls for you and our viewers. In colorado if you look at likely voters donald trump and Hillary Clinton are neck and neck, exactly tied. 39 to 39 . If you look at New Hampshire, same type of thing. Hillary clinton and donald trump exactly tied at 42 to 42. What do you think, senator, is the reason that this race is so tight . Do you chalk some of this up to the socalled comey effect of injecting just enough kind of uncertainty into these last days of the race . Well, i think after this is all done, we can look at the daytoday tracking, but i think we always knew that this race was going to be close. Secretary clinton has been saying that from the beginning. And, in fact, in states like colorado and New Hampshire, she is actually expected to win. If you look at all the polls combined here. And, in fact, in the last few days and in a number of national polls, she has gone ahead after a bit of a dip earlier in the week where some of the states tied up. Im very positive about her chances and when you look at those numbers, it doesnt even show the ground game. That has not been Donald Trumps focus. I was just on a phone call with 300 volunteers and organizers in for the state of virginia where she is well ahead. They still have 40,000 shifts over the weekend that they have filled for people to make calls. To make sure people get to the polls. Its going to be extraordinary because she came up through grassroots politics and you cant forget that factor, as well. And just that every prediction right now is that she is still ahead in most of these swing states. We do hear about the clinton ground game. And we do hear that maybe she could even use, if she could use the obama apparatus, all the better. But what weve heard on the other side is, yes, donald trump is a newcomer. Maybe he doesnt have the ground game. However, the rnc has told us that they have been working on their ground game for the past three years. They say they have an incredibly sophisticated ground game. They do not think theyll be at a disadvantage on tuesday. Well, i think the first thing you could look at is the early votes. If you want to have some thats a ground game, too. Or people getting out. What are people passionate about. Just those numbers from nevada and florida and arizona are where youve seen the hispanic vote turning out in droves and unprecedented numbers where you see most of the swing state early votes where you can figure out whats happening. Focused on democrats and people voting for Hillary Clinton. I just see the signs when i talk to experts on this are that she is doing well. But she is strong. You look at the Closing Arguments going into this campaign where she is able to reiterate her points that were made so well in the debates. Who do you want as commander in chief . Someone who is cozying up to putin and somebody who is talking about adding Nuclear Weapons to asia or someone who has had the experience over years to make tough decisions like going after obama bin laden. If you look at the early voting, youre right. The hispanic vote is up over 2012. However, the black vote is down in early voting from 2012 and 2008. How big of a concern is that for you . I believe that the black vote will turn out. I think you see the president out there making the most effective case. I dont know who could be better, except maybe Michelle Obama in making that case with the kind of support and the kind of love that the African Community has for both of them and for the clintons over time. I am not concerned about that. I think certain states theres emphasis in certain states that may have a lower percentage of africanamerican votes and its too early to tell. I only brought up the hispanic vote because we asked how we could tell about enthusiasm level and they point to the strong enthusiasm level on the Hillary Clinton side. Donald trump is trying to paint a troubling picture of what could happen if Hillary Clinton were to make it to the white house. Let me play for you very quickly what he said on the campaign trail. Here we go, again, with clinton. You remember the impeachment and the problems. Shes likely to be under investigation for many, many years. Also likely to conclude in a criminal trial. This is not what we need in this country, folks. We need somebody thats going to go to work. Okay. So, what he says is not true. Theres no evidence that it is likely to conclude in a criminal trial. However, right or wrong, do you think there is some investigation fatigue that may play a part on tuesday with voters . Well, first of all, thank you for beginning by pointing out the facts that we know that there has been no actual legal proceeding. The one investigation has been concluded looking at her emails. Some emails showed up and the fbi director said were going to look at them. We dont have any proof that donald trump has said that. Its very important that the American People know that. On the other hand as your cnn analyst just pointed out, you have hundreds of legal suits that are brought against donald trump in the past decades. One that is pending in federal court about Trump University or in the court that youre going to see just coming to a case. Like its actually going to trial. So, i dont think he should be throwing stones when he, himself, has been living in a glass house of lawsuits. Many of them brought on by himself over the last few decades. So, i just think that this is just an unfair criticism. What we really should be doing these last four days is talking about the Closing Arguments. The fact that were adding jobs, again, to the economy. And that Hillary Clinton wants to continue the work of a Strong Economy for all americans, not just the ones at the top. We will be showing those jobs numbers at the end of new day this morning. Senator, thank you very much for being on new day. Thanks alisyn. Its great to be on. Lets get to chris. Lets balance out this discussion. North carolina is getting a lot of attention, no question. Here are the latest polls. Clinton threepoint lead. Remember, obama lost this state in 2012, won it in 2008. Cnns poll of polls shows a similar number to that. Trump trailing by four. Can he come back in the tarheel state . Lets ask republican congresswoman renee elmers of North Carolina. She supports donald trump. I heard you, i was watching you listen to our last segment and you had this stink eye going. You dont like what you were hearing. Why . No. Absolutely not. Especially here in North Carolina. You know, i know you were citing some poll information there and, you know, real clear politics has us tied and we have a number of other polls showing trump up five points. I voted yesterday. My family and i went and voted and we saw the, we were in line for an hour and i happened to overhear one of the poll workers say how she was amazed at how many new voters were coming out. Theyre coming out to vote for donald trump. Theyre not coming out to vote for Hillary Clinton. How do you know . This is a woman the reason i know im looking and talking to folks. I had a friend call me yesterday and tell me that his 98yearold grandmother whos been voting straight democrat for 80 years said if you take me to the polls, im going to vote for donald trump. Thats what were seeing here in North Carolina. He was just here last night in selma. A crowd of 15,000. Now, those arent just republicans. I mean, north carolinians are going with trump. Its trump land and i think its time that the polls start to reflect that absolutely. But heres the thing. Hillary clinton. I was listening to your segment, yeah. You could see my reaction. She is, she is under facing indictment. Were in a situation where the Clinton Foundation no proof shes facing indictment. There is proof. There isnt any proof. There is. Whats the proof . The proof is the fbi investigators. This is coming out everywhere. Im hearing about it. I dont really have all that many connections and yet im hearing about the investigation and the investigation fox news just apologized. Bret baier who is a solid reporter apologized for doing the story essentially. Our reporting says what jim comey said, which is they dont even know if they have any new significant emails. That there is no that is absolutely untrue. And for you to be telling your viewers jim comey just said it when he gave his statement. No, sir. What has been said is that the new emails that have been found are, in fact, that. New emails. This is all new information. And, you know what, people are talking. So, the investigation is moving forward. Now, i do agree with you, there is someone who is trying to put a cover up in place here. And its at the Justice Department level. Thats where it is. Thats a Conspiracy Theory and thats fine for you to believe it. But you said shes facing indictment. When you say somebody is facing congresswoman, when you say someone is facing indictment, that means that you know something that the fbi is about to do. We have no basis of proof that that is about to happen. You may want it to happen, but that doesnt mean its going to happen. We dont want it to happen. You dont want it to happen. I dont want to see our country in jeopardy this way. This is a matter of national security. And, you know f wexwoknow, if o talk about a lawsuit. This is not a lawsuit, this is criminal charges were talking about. Were talking about a laundry list. An avalanche of new information that has come forward. The fbi has not put that out. They did not make a case against the foundation at the doj level. Comey said it is not a close call. Youre right. Trump university, the reason they bring it up, that is actually going to trial as a fraud class action suit. And donald trump will be asked to be deposed, unless he settles that case. And then you will have him on record, perhaps as a sitting president , talking about things that they could be used in other legal venues. An active fbi investigation. The fbi cannot come out and talk about it. You heard he did come out and talk about it, twice. You heard jim comey when he was giving testimony in congress. Basically when he was asked if the Clinton Foundation was under investigation. He literally said, i cannot talk about any other possible investigations going on. He is absolutely right. But here are the facts. The facts are the fbi is, does have the Clinton Foundation under investigation. True. And Hillary Clinton herself. True. These are the things that are happening and it is up to you as the media to make sure that you get your facts straight. So that you can be telling your viewers the truth. The truth is and thats what the north carolinian people understand. You know, im not seeing any of the excitement for Hillary Clinton in our africanamerican population here in North Carolina. And no matter how many times president obama comes and speaks to the africanamerican population and millennials, he cannot overcome the fact that there are millions more in poverty today. The greatest number of those are the africanamerican population. Thats what those good people understand and know. And the argument becomes why is this situation still not where it needs to be and whos going toby better at moving it forward. Needs to be. Its worse off than when barack obama took over office. Millions are in poverty today. When barack Obama Took Office it was during the largest economic depression of our lifetime. The country is not in worse situation today than it was in 2008. Yes. Look at the numbers. He created 15 million jobs. The u. S. Credit was under assault and the stock market had tanked. Theres no question about that. Let me ask you about Something Else we have less in the labor force today than back when jimmy carter was the president. You have a different Labor Participation rate today than you did then and there are a lot of reasons for that. Not as simple as just saying less. But renee elmers, i have to cut it off there. I really appreciate you coming on the show and making the case. You know that, youre always welcome. Chicago is celebrating its heroes today after ending 108year curse. The mayor is promising a parade and rally for the cubs to end all parades and rallies. Ryan young is live from chicago. Hows it feeling there, ryan . Absolutely fantastic. How about an absolutely positive story. The fact that the cubs finally got rid of that curse after 108 years. Look at the building behind me. You can see some of the excitement and hear some of the excitement from the fans. We were there when they won the game. Hundreds of thousands of people poured into the street and theyre expecting over a Million People to show up to the parade today. And thats something that theyre saying this is one of the biggest sporting events in the citys history. Of course, it went to ten innings, there was that nailbiting moment. Fans have been out on the streets for the last 24 hours. High fiving each other, hugging each other and talking about the idea that they wish their loved ones who are no longer here would see this moment. This has been a positive thing for the city and planning a big party for a million or so family members. The names you want to know schwarber and bryant will be names. A nicelooking jacket you have on there. Looks good. Thank you. Just four days remain. What do you do with this amount of time . So many things you could be doing. But you have to pick priorities, right . Sleeping. Both of these campaigns know that the more people they get out to vote from their own coalition, the better. Two advisors who lived this scenario in 2012. Theyre going to tell us what you need to do right now. vo maybe it was here, when you hit 300,000 miles. Or here, when you walked away without a scratch.

You dont have any right to complain if you dont get involved in the process and for both of these campaigns, its the fundamental they believe in terms of who will win. So, you have republicans stepping up their game after failing in 2012. They believe turnout was key there. You have president obama trying to drum up people in North Carolina and else where. Will it make a difference . Cnn chief Political Correspondent dana bash has more on the effect of turnout. Reporter on the ground ill mark you down for 12 00 on saturday for phone banking. Reporter on the stump if we vote, we win. Get out and vote reporter it is now all about getting out the vote. For republicans, that means learning from their mistakes. After their lagging 2012 operation failed, the Republican National committee began working three years ago to step up their game. How is what youre doing in 2016 different from what you did in 2012 . We are 100 miles away from where we were in 2012. Reporter the biggest difference, activists use this phone app to get out the vote. It will show you their party affiliation, how reliable they are as a voter. Their age, stuff like that. You just click that voter. Do take survey and right there. Reporter it gives volunteers what is called dynamic scripting. Prompting different pitches to voters depending on their answers. Information all instantly sent back to rnc headquarters. We need to talk to republicans and make sure they know when the election is. Reporter now, in the final push thousands of staffers and volunteers are using that app in battleground states across the country. The rnc leading trumps ground operation says they will complete 17 million door knocks by election day. Up from 11. 5 million in 2012. Its all very ambitious, but its been done before by the democrats. Im doing great, what is your name . Reporter theyre trying to emulate the obama ground machine that crushed the gop for two cycles. My name is mary perkins williams. Reporter army of activists are spread out over the same key states as republicans. Clinton Campaign Aides say theyve signed up some 1 million volunteer shifts for the last 96 hours alone. Old school using paper and clipboards and put in a tally at the end of each day. Still, the clinton system is very hightech using digital and social media to build on that obama operation. Text plan to 47246. Is now going to walk me through making my entire voting plan. Reporter a personalized plan for when to vote, where to vote and even how to get there. Forcing people to get specific and to give a commitment. Exactly. Im taking Public Transit and voting in the morning and i know my polling location. So, i can get a reminder straight to my phone, straight tamy pocket on election day to tell me to go vote. Reporter volunteers are pretty much done to persuade voters to vote clinton. Were just focused on the turnout right now. Reporter translation, team clinton knows exactly who her voters are. Now it is making sure those voters actually cast their ballots. Dana bash, cnn, washington. Lets talk about the specifics of this. How do the campaigns get reluctant or tired or disengaged voters to the polls . Lets ask cnn political commentator and former Senior Adviser to president Obama Dan Pfeiffer and kevin madden, a Senior Adviser to and spokesman for mitt romneys 2012 president ial campaign. Gentlemen, great to see you. Great tasee yo see you, too. Good morning. You are part of the legend that was get out the vote for obama. What did you do differently than campaigns before you and what worked so effectively . What was most important about what obama did is our campaign married science. We had sophisticated Data Analysis allowed us to know where our voters where and where they lived and what issues they cared about. You knew somebodys address and you knew for the first time whether they were democrat or republican and who they had voted for and how often they had voted. What did you know about them . You had known if they voted in democratic primaries in the past and where they lived and other data you had about them and whether they would support mitt romney or john mccain and set a score for each voter and if they reached a certain score, you would target them. All the data saying the world is great, but it wont help you unless you have the volunteer army to do it. Our campaign spent two years in 2012 recruiting volunteers. To do the same thing too, get people to go call them and go door to door. Is that how many you had . A million. We had somewhere around that. But the Clinton Campaign is building on what we had. Kevin, in hindsight now, what missed opportunities did your ground game have for mitt romney . One of the things you remember in 2012, we were going against the legendary dan pfeiffer and his turnout team. Voters have to be motivated to not only vote for their candidate, but they have to go and find ten friends or ten relatives to also come out and vote for them. So, while we did have a lot of voters who said, yes, im for mitt romney, we didnt have the same type of intensity that we needed that that same voter would go knock on five doors or make ten phone calls and bring another group of voters to the polls. Dan knows you particularly have states like florida and ohio that are deadlocked that is the difference between winning and losing. But, dan, can you just give me the nuts and bolts of this. Explain to me. One of the volunteers knocks on the door and they find an elderly man in a wheelchair. You throw that person over your shoelder a shoulder and you walk them, how do you get them to the polls . A Good Campaign will have thousands upon thousands of volunteer drivers who will go to their house, pick them up, drive team the polling place and take them home. Right . Whatever it takes to get someone to the poll, you will do. We heard from the rnc that they have learned from their mistakes and that their get out the vote effort now is they say wildly sophisticated. We see all the high tech apps that you just saw in dana bashs piece. How do you think it will work this time . The rnc should be commended for. I was talking to their chief of staff the other day katy walsh who headed up this work and they invested 75 million in improving upon the infrastructure from 2012. The investments happen there. One of the big problems or the challenges that well have from here to election day is that while the rnc has built an incredible infrastructure usually what happens is that the rnc will marry that with the Campaign Infrastructure that the candidate has built through the primary process and through the summer months. Donald trump hasnt done that. What he has done is essentially outsource his organization to the rnc. So, you know, the difference is dan will tell you having a dnc and a Clinton Organization that both built very impressive infrastructureses the rncs impressive infrastructure but not much of one from trump that does provide a bit of an advantage. So, you does that cause you concern today, four days out . It does. But one of the things thats happened in the last few days as donald trump has begun to stay on message and we have seen a contrast on the issue of obama care premium spikes and we have seen the fbi investigation start to impact Voter Opinions about Hillary Clinton that intensity and momentum are on Donald Trumps side. So, i think the rnc because they have built this infrastructure they have now taken advantage with that ground game they have built. Im so struck by the juxtaposition of the low tech high tech combo. They have the sophisticated apps and Scientific Data you were saying and yesterday president obama was at the podium reading out the addresses of the polling places. Write this down. There is where you have to go. Four days out if you were running Hillary Clintons ground game, what would you be doing today . Doing exactly what theyre doing. Marshal helped do that for president obama in 2012. He is one of the best in the business. They hired a lot of people who came up through our organization out there. But it is, especially in these early voting states, you hit these people every singal time. You knock their doors and call them. They would eventually say, leave me alone. You want to get off our list, go vote. Every day they get the list of who voted and they get crossed off and you stop calling those people. It is just a massive sprint for these last few days here just hammering it home with tremendous intensity. Dan, kevin, thank you very much for sharing all of those secrets. Stay with cnn for special allday election coverage on tuesday. Well have every race and every result covered for you. Melania trump back out. She has a new crusade.

Trumps wife says social media culture is just too mean. And she vows to fight cyberbullying if she becomes first lady. Interestingly, she did not mention a renowned cyberbully, her husband. Take a listen. Tweeting happens to be a modern day form of communication. Im not unproud of it, to be honest with you. But like anything that is powerful, it can have a bad side. Shes on her twitter ad. Jall i did was a little twee. We have to find a better way to talk to each other. My biggest problems are retweets and repeat. Maybe not retweet things. Youre right. All right, lets discuss with cnn political commentator and donald trump supporter Scottie Nell Hughes and former special adviser to president obama van jones, a Hillary Clinton supporter. Nobody will disagree with the message that Melania Trump put out. Social media is a toxic, crucible of negativity. Its got to change. Its hurting our kids and hurting everybody. Agreed, agreed, agreed. Why did the campaign put melania in this if you are so worried about what is happening on osocial media tell your husband to stop on social media. There has not been a spotlight put on it. Yesterday was a very wonderful and articulate conversation that Melania Trump started that we need to have some action on it as American Families across the board are dealing with this. So, i think the fact that she put the spotlight on making this a priority at affects every single american is a very good thing. On the other hand, mr. Trump has a right to defend himself. Name me a time when mr. Trump went after somebody random who never had attacked him first . The park five. He never mentioned them specifically in the article. But, hold on. Let me reset the table. Because you dont have to go back that far. Everybody who takes a shot at somebody feels that theyre justified. This is about to quote Melania Trump, how we disagree. You and i, you and i and van and i can all disagree. You will never hear me speak to you online or in person the way he does with people he doesnt agree with and why . Because of decorum and my sense of decency and what i think my position requires. He does not agree with those evaluations. His way and, we all know it, put up some of his tweets. This is not theoretical. If you Say Something i dont like, scottie, im going to go at everything about you that will make you feel bad about yourself. You may not like his response and he still has a right to do just because you have the right does not make it right. We know that. Megyn kelly, im not going to call her a make sure you defend yourself when youre hit. You may not like how he did it. Time and time an old playbook of the left to republican candidates. Ive seen them just destroyed battered left, right. He decided im going to stop this now and fight for myself. What . Three days ago . Fight for my family. Fight for america. I think Everybody Knows that if you had a kid that behaved the way donald trump behaved you would be very, very disappointed in that kid and put him in timeout. I want to talk about Something Else. We have gotten to the place where no good deed goes unpunished. Melania trump did not marry a politician, she married a businessperson. She got thrown into this when he made a decision and she stepped out on a stage, bigger stage than youve been on and ive been on and she got burned because her staff didnt keep her from reading a speech that was not the right speech for her. If you want to find some inspiration in this campaign the fact that she has come back out. The fact that she has found a way to be a part of the conversation and is talking about something relevant, although its bizarre from a Campaign Point of view, from a personal point of view you can find inspiration from her. She is doing everything she is asked to do and shes doing it well, probably better than some people who dont know her expected. Im just saying, just a message with the reality of the candidate. That i agree with. I dont think we should adapt to the absurdity and lowering our standards, left, right or otherwise. Donald trump has not conducted himself in a way that you would want a leader to do. You know what the test is, scottie. You and all of us when we have this conversation. Would you say that . Would you do that . I wouldnt choose to do that but he has the right and he is who he is. Just an odd thing for him to say, we have to be nicer to each other when he has set a standard, the lowest weve ever seen in our lifetime for a president ial election. Its never the wrong time to do the right thing. That goes off the cliche you just said. If anybody who has suffered after van what just said. She has seen it in her own children and to her husband. Why not start that conversation. Why not sit there and begin to go forward instead of continuing and focusing on the past and issues he had in the past, as not a politician. And you might not like the fact how he counterpunched, but that is his right and what he had to do. He has learned from some of the mistakes and youve not seen them repeated in the future. Well, the past several days hes been okay. But i got to tell you, when it takes you 18 months to learn that not shooting yourself in the face every day might help your campaign, that is a very slow learning curve and i would be afraid of a commander in chief that took him 18 months to figure out not to accidentally start wars. When it comes down to it, what are you more upset when you push the button . The actions or words of somebody . The words of Donald Trumps the actions instead of called national security. The wonderful actions of Hillary Clinton. Over 80 of people, i think 85 say theyre disgusted with this race. And theres reason for that. Thank you both. Thank you. Just went up to 86. Meanwhile, after a terrorist detonated a bomb in new york city in september, two of new yorks finest had the near Impossible Task of trying to control the panic and the chaos. Our Brooke Baldwin spoke with the men who went beyond the call of duty. We know that new york is a target, but, you dont put your uniform on every day thinking today there might be an explosion. Reporter nypd officers john and dan were on routine patrol on a saturday night in september when they saw the explosion that shook new york citys chelsea neighborhood. We saw the explosion go off. Yeah, we were pretty much half a block away. At that point we knew we had to do something. Reporter so where were you guys when you pulled up . At the scene, their First Priority was helping the injured. I just saw blood on their clothes. And they were just hysterical. I tried to calm them down and say help is on the way, help is coming. Everybody get off of this street reporter 15 minutes later, police found another unexploded device several blocks away. It, like the first device, was filled with shrapnel and built from pressure cookers and flip phones. In press conferences to come, officials would call the chelsea blast, intentional. And an act of terror. A bomb exploding in new york is, obviously, an act of terrorism. That was probably the scariest part was just not knowing if there was a second bomb. Reporter explosion goes off and iter a its your job to go it. Yes. Does that make you nervous or do you know that is your job . We know thats our job. Reporter that explosion from the dumpster flew across the street. Launched over there. Even to this day, some of the windows are blown out. Its cracked over there. Reporter oh, yes. Despite the damage, by sunday morning all the injured were released from the hospital. By monday, following a frantic manhunt and shootout in new jersey, rahimi was arrested with the explosion and campanella were back at work. Protecting a city still on edge. Thats what i want to do. Its in my blood. Its in my heart. I want to be there and help people. I think that day we helped out a lot. Reporter Brooke Baldwin, cnn. You know, that is a fascinating report because we always say thank goodness, nobody was killed. I wondered what the scene was like when so many people were injured and that was a good insight into it. The men and women who run towards the trouble every time it happens. So, the election. The campaigns. Its all come down to just a handful of counties and a handful of states and the one youre going to hear talked about the most is North Carolina. What is that state about . What could make it swing either way . Answers ahead. The battleground. So what are we looking at . Florida, once again, going to be down to the wire. But youre hearing a little bit more about North Carolina and what youre hearing is negative everywhere. Attack ads. And heres why. Weve got cnn poll of polls showing trump and clinton in florida, specifically, tied. And what works best in politics . Negativity. Especially with those voters along the i4 corridor. Thats where we find cnns Boris Sanchez live in st. Petersburg, florida, with more. Good morning. Good morning, chris. The i4 corridor. You hear so much about it. It only takes about two hours to get across the whole thing but politically it is huge. About 40 of floridas registered voters live on the i4 corridor. And as weve seen in the past, so goes the i4, corridor, so goes florida and potentially so goes the election. If the road to the white house goes through florida, then that road is this one, interstate 4. The 140 mile coasttocoast highway across Central Florida has become the States Center of political gravity. Its floridas i4 corridor. And it starts along the east coast here in daytona beach. Where a rise in the number of registered republicans has turned the once reliably blue Volusia County purple. To tilt it back in her column the Clinton Campaign is targeting africanamericans. Vote like we never voted before. I feel good about seeing all of the young people here who remind me of another period during the early days of the civil rights movement. They know their lessons. They know their stories. Theyre going to turn out and vote. Reporter further west on i4 there are traditionally redder areas like sanford in seminole county. Donald trump and his surrogates have made more than a dozen appearances along the i4 corridor since the convention. Theyre hoping to surpass mitt romneys already solid win here in 2012. By riling up a base frustrated with washington. This is a movement, this is an Incredible Movement of the people of the United States who want integrity restored to the government. Reporter our next stop is orlando. And its the biggest city on the i4 corridor. Its also one that in recent years has changed dramatically. The message of orlando is more ethnic focus. Especially latino voters and especially puerto rican. Reporter with a large influx of democraticleaning puerto rican voters moving to orlando in recent years, the Clinton Campaign is vying for their vote. Donald trump [ speaking spanish ] reporter i4s evolving Political Landscape continues west of orlando while there have been major demographic changes to our last stop, tampa, these changes arent among ethnic lines but actually among generational lines. While the west coast of florida was once a haven for retirees, now about half the registered voters here are younger than 50. With so many colleges and universities that reside on the corridor, thats going to be the change game changer for either candidate. Reporter with a race so close as we approach the finish line, how the candidates do on i4 could define the election. Its the most competitive part of florida. Its the swingest part of the swing state. Highway to heaven or hell depending on whether you win or not. All eyes are going to be on tampa on election night. Specifically hillsboro county, because it is a great predictor, a great bellwether for elections. It has correctly predicted 19 of the past 20 campaigns. Alisyn and chris . Okay, boris, thanks so much. For all of that reporting. We are just four days away. I dont know if weve mentioned that yet, from election day. We can think of no better time to bring in cnn political analyst David Gregory and cnn senior political analyst and Senior Editor for the atlantic ron brownstein. Guys, great to talk to you. David gregory, let me start with you. How do you characterize the state of the race today . Well i think its still in clintons favor more marginally. The biggest factor weve seen is not only a negative for her about the emails but also a consolidation for trump. Where republicans are coming home. And its not only some more discipline on his part but i was reminded this morning about why more conventional republicans might come to his side. Think about taxes and spending for one thing. Hillary clintons going to raise taxes. So theres a lot of republicans who are going to say, yeah, i may not like things about trump but thats going to be a big issue for me. I think some of that consolidation is helping. I still think you see she has the advantage. Ron brownstein, whats your prediction for the next few days . In terms of what in terms of where theyre going to put their emphasis, and why, what do you see . Well, look, i mean clinton has a core perimeter, right . She has 273 Electoral College votes that they are counting on the most. States like North Carolina, florida and nevada are essentially and ohio and iowa which are less likely to win, thats the insurance in case she loses any states in those core burner and she may need that insurance particularly in New Hampshire the polling has tightened up significantly. The process david described with Republican Voters moving back from gary johnson to donald trump. So youre left with me may need one of these insurance and North Carolina and nevada are probably her best bets right now if she loses one of the core states shes counting on to get her past 270. Lets look at florida first because that doesnt look like its an insurance policy with the latest polls. This is the cnn poll of polls of florida it is exactly tied. Clinton 45, trump 45. David gregory, what do you think is going to happen here in florida . Well, one of the things that the clinton team is looking at in both florida and North Carolina, which well talk about, is the hispanic vote. Which they view as really the key part of their coalition of minority voters. If theres a soft turnout among africanamericans, hispanic turnout and enthusiasm is much higher according to the democratic pollsters ive talked to than in 2012. They look for that to be a decisive factor on election day in florida, where you not only have the traditional hispanic constituency you have more Puerto Ricans who have moved to the state because of economic factors in puerto rico. That could be very important. The rise in North Carolina of the hispanic vote on a percentage basis is higher than anywhere in the country. I think thats really what she considers a firewall in terms of the coalition. How real is the are these kind of, ron, suggestions of how people are based on who they are. Latinos and minorities and africanamericans are minorities, lets look at them the same way. College educated or uncollege educated lets look at them very differently. How true are those assumptions . Groups are not identical but the diversions among the groups may be bigger in this election than ever before. Donald trump is on track to run as well among white voters without a College Education potentially as Ronald Reagan in 1984. Hes facing more resistance among College Whites than any republican nominee in the history of polling. He is potentially facing a record gap among hispanics, and of course all republicans usually have big gaps among africanamericans. So, any change in the composition of the electorate has a huge impact on the result. If youre talking about North Carolina or florida it really is the same equation to a large extent which is the democrats are counting on improvements relevant to 12 among College Whites, and latinos to offset some signs that africanamericans may not be turning out at the same rate in both states. Thats going to be the equation that decides how North Carolina and florida come down at the end of the day. Lets look at something notable happening in both florida and North Carolina and that is the increase, significant, in the independent early voting. Let me pull this up for you. Early voting in florida, 2016 versus 2008, republicans are basically steady hold on, well get to the independents in a moment. Republicans are steady. Democrats, early voting, has gone down a little bit and independents have gone from 12. 4 to 16. 6 . What could that mean, david . Well, a lot of the polling that ive seen, donald trump runs pretty well among independents. This is where the change message, and kind of anticorruption of d. C. Message plays very well with people who feel totally disaffected with the political process and feel kind of left out of the political process. That looms large. Coming back to more messages, independents or lapsed republicans david, ron, thank you very much. Appreciate it as always. Thanks, guys. Were following a lot of news this morning. Lets get right to it. America will have a new president. It will either be me or my opponent. We are the movement of the future. This campaign is not a personality contest. Were not voting for high school president. We have to find a better way to talk to each other. To accept each other. What kind of change are we going to have . Just remember, the system is rigged. Weve got work to do. To finish what we started eight years ago. This is new day with chris cuomo and alisyn camerota. Good morning, welcome toyour new day. Up first, donald trump, Hillary Clinton, battling it out, especially in North Carolina. This has become the kind of hot state. The mustwin swing state for both of these candidates. And it could ultimately therefore decide the race. So top surrogates for trump and clinton are fanning out there and across the country with just four days away from election day. We have it all covered for you. Lets begin with cnns Sunlen Serfaty live in charlotte, North Carolina. Good morning, sunlen. Good morning to you, alisyn. The battle is so intense here in North Carolina that the candidates are practically running into
