Election day is nine days away. Have you cast your ballot yet . Nearly 55 million have. Breaking records in states. Among the early vote es about two out of five are age 65 or older. One out of ten are age 29 or younger. This week new york congresswoman alexandria ocasiocortez reached out to young people online. In a very cool way. She live streamed herself playing the Popular Online game, among us. She got more than 5 million views on the streaming app. Twitch. She was truly lethal. We will explore this out reach and explain among us. Just ahead. Joe biden and President Trump took a more congressional approach to voter out reach. With Campaign Events this weekend. This week the president will head to pennsylvania, michigan, wisconsin and virginia. Biden is off to georgia. National polling shows joe biden leading by nearly 8 . In swing states the race is significantly tighter. Voters in texas have already cast 80 of the total votes cast in 2016. And were still more than a week from election day. Todays Dallas Morning News had an unusual headline. Biden grabs narrow lead over trump in texas. Holding that lead would make some history. Do you know the last democratic president ial candidate to win texas . Jimmy carter in 1976. Its not just the race for the white house. Thats bringing voters out. The down ballot races are crucial. Everyone in the u. S. House and more. 35 senate seats are up for grabs this year. That includes both seats in georgia. Senator Kamala Harris made note of that while campaigning in atlanta on friday. That brings me to georgia. You have to send them to the United States senate. Send them to the United States senate. Let them represent georgia. On all these issues. It is critically important. Those senate seats, those are six year terms. Think about your plans joinings now democratic candidate. He is running to unseat republican senator david per due. Good evening. Good evening. They thought it was Stacey Abrams year for the governor mansion. Kemp pulled it off. Hes the governor. Why is this year the year for democrats to take one or both seats in the senate . This is really the culmination of the decade of work in georgia. Much of the it led by Stacey Abrams. Recall that she lost the governor race in 2018 running against ts man who over saw the election. By just 50,000 votes. We have added more than 800,000 voters to the rolls since then in two years. The new electorate and younger and diverse chl the state becomes younger and more diverse by the hour. The turn out among young voters and black voters and communities of color are all shattering all time records. Of course, voters in georgia are continuing to face voters suppression. And ab tsa kls to the franchise. Lets talk about policy. With covid19 if you are in the senate right now what would you be working on in terms of helping georgia deal with the pandemic. It looks like the most powerful person in the Democratic Caucus is Mitch Mcconnell. And nothing flows around him but that he permits it. If you join the Democratic Caucus, how would you help . Georgia is the home of the cdc. The centers for disease control. My state hosts the world foremost experts in Public Health and epidemiology. From day one our governments failure our president s failure has been that this response has been politicized. They have failed to empower the people who actually know what theyre doing. Even worse they suppressed the governments own Public Health experts. Sent mixed messages and under mine science. My wife is a doctor. The doctors and nurses have been doing their job. Its the politicians who havent. We need to empower Public Health experts to lead. And relief to Small Businesses and working families who have been suffering without substantial relief from Congress Since late summer. A recent poll from the New York Times shows you ask approximate senator purdue tied at 43 each. Another poll that shows you behind by 1 . Or ahead. Basically margin of error in both cases. Essentially tied. What do you think it is that will put you over the top if you are successful . Is there anything that stands to give you the edge if you win this one . Theres no doubt this is now the closest u. S. Senate race in the country. Thats why mcconnell has spent more money against me than any other democratic challenger in the country. What we have to do is we have to get out the vote like its never been done before. In georgia. And we have to protect Ballot Access. Black voters in particular. Are being made to wait in outrageous lines and showing perseverance. In the face of voter suppression. I need help from across the nation to protect Ballot Access in georgia. I need folks to get onto elect jon and send 1. To defend voting rights. Theres an op sed stating atlanta murder rate this year is on par with chicago. With know there were extremely intense protests after the homicide of george floyd. Including some that damaged the facade of the center downtown. The brooks case is moving. The young man killed by Atlanta Police officers in a wendys parking lot. What is it that you as a senator would want to help georgia with . In terms of improving relations with Law Enforcement. We need to rebuild trust. Between communities and Law Enforcement. So Law Enforcement can effectively do its job and keep every community in the state safe. We need a new civil rights act. That will establish National Standards for the use of force. And that will equip local Law Enforcement not with weapons of war but with the training and expertise necessary to do their jobs effectively and kpeep us safe and build strong relations with Community Leaders and ordinary people especially in the black community here in georgia. Our constitution guarantees equal protection under the law. When Ahmaud Arbery was shot to death on camera in broad daylight. And officials looked the other way. That made a mockery of the equal protection. It makes it harder for Law Enforcement to do their job and communities to trust. Briefly, one of the top three committees you want to serve on as senator . I have a background in national security. And foreign affairs. Id like to serve on the armed services. Commerce. And conducting oversight and investigation to root out fraud, abuse and corruption. Within the federal government. Democratic candidate for u. S. Senate in georgia. Thanks very much. Pleasure. Thank you. For more on Georgia Senate races lets continue. A political reporter with the Atlanta Journal constitution. Good evening. Thanks if for having me. Thought on what we just just heard . When he first started running in 2017 for a special Election District in northern atlanta. He had a more moderate message. After he entered the race. Then a moderate message. Hes running statewide after Stacey Abrams example in 2018. You can be a democrat who embraces liberal positions and continued sood so. Polls are showing its working out. Hes neck in neck in every major poll we have seen. Talk about that for a minute. The fact they are neck in neck. It gives some candidates in a different situation. In georgia thats a sign of progress. That means his campaign is working. Exactly. No georgia democrat has won statewide in a dozen years. Even the fact that hes forcing a run off is major progress for a democratic candidate in georgia. If you dont get a majority there will be a january 5 run off. Thats almost a guarantee in the other senate race. This race its a little bit more up in the air. Very few polls show either of them around 50 . Touch on that other senate race. Running in very interesting special race. Among the candidates to unseat her is the reverend. The Senior Pastor at baptist church. Whats the big story behind that race and who seems to be out in front . Yeah right now its reverend. Hes about 30 to 40 most public polls. He has the full backing of the democratic establishment. He has the money and the campaign organization. That the other democrats lack. Hes the front runner. Congressman collins are scrapping with ooemp for the republican vote. And trying to out dual each other for the far right conservative vote. They feel like going towards the middle doesnt make any sense for them. Both of them are out there with very scathing ads. Mostly attacking each other rather than focusing on the reverend. The polls dont show him 50 either. They can shift the attention to him once one of them makes it to the run off in january. Why are there two republicans going for the seat . Hes in a prominent position in the house. So its not like hes a back bencher. Why havent gop georgiaens coalessed around one candidate . Great question. He was the prominent republican one of the most defenders of trump during impeachment during the judiciary committee. Essentially, President Trump and allies really encouraged Governor Kemp to appoint collins to that open seat. That was left vacant by retired senator. Instead the governor wanted to go a different route. Pick an outsider from outside the political establishment. And kelly who is a former financial executive. But promised to spend at least 20 million of her own cash on the campaign. And so far that tally reached 23 million. Shes abided by the promise. Its driven apart the Republican Party in georgia and different camps. You have very well known georgia politicians backing kelly and others backing collins. Its a civil war within the georgia gop. Judiciary committee. Thats what i should have said. Before i let you go, if someone is going to trip in this race at the finish line, what are they going to trip over . Thats ta great question. More than two third of the voters are expected to cast ballots before november 3. Astonishing number in georgia. Most republicans are still going to hold out for election day. Election day will tilt towards republicans. Were looking for kelly and collins in that race. And purdue in his race to continue to play to the base. And theres a concern that if they go too far to the right it could ailen ate voters in november or january run off. It will be interesting to see what happens. Im very interested in the collins lofler race. You have one of the most fascinating political seats in the country. Coming up. Well check out what first time voters are saying about the election and what motivated some of you. How far does a fund raising advantage go towards victory this far into a campaign . First up. The headlines. Good evening. Stores are watching for this hour. Utah may begin rationing care for coronavirus patients. According to president of the utah hospital association. Doctors may have o to hit patients out of the icu. Pg e is turning off power for 300,000 customers in california. The concern is strong wind and dry conditions could damage electrical equipment. Potentially starting more wild fires. And nasa astronaut she voted from the International Space station. Using a secure electronic ballot. Saying if she can vote from space, americans should be able to do the same from the ground. More of the week after the break. Cell phone repair. Did you know Liberty Mutual customizes your Car Insurance so you only pay for what you need . Just get a quote at libertymutual. Com. Really . Ill check that out. Oh yeah. I think i might get a quote. Not again aah, come on rice. Do your thing. Only pay for what you need. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. This week joe biden became the highest spending political candidate in history. Since launching his campaign hes spent nearly 600 million just on tv ads. In the past week the Biden Campaign rolled out 45 million worth of ads. About three times what the Trump Campaign spent. Going into october joe biden reported a cash advantage of more than 100 million over the Trump Campaign. With just a week left until election, why not spend it if you got it . Lets discuss that with me panel. Senior opinion writer at the boston globe. And contributor. And republican strategist and senior add virz at the lincoln project. Good to have you with us. What happened with joe biden . This time last year, they had bothed out fund raising wise and rais rais raised less than 25,000 a day. Was it matter of getting the nomination of that magic moment when congressman clyburn anointed him in South Carolina and made it happen . Or more to it than that . To be clear the democratic universe was going to coa less the nominee. Two things happened to biden. South carolina and Kamala Harris happened. Ill let you draw the connective tissue. This campaign was doing well with rolling along into august. You cant deny it the 500 million shot Kamala Harris provided to the campaign. He was going to have enough money. But she secured the financial future ocht campaign. So they can take risk and show out into the home stretch. Without having to make hyper conservative decisions that are driven by a shoe string budget. What about the differences in strategy between the Biden Campaign and the Trump Campaign . In terms of how they spend dollars. Trump is favored Online Advertising vs. On air. They have some pretty creative stuff coming out in the last few days. One of the latest pieces they put out is called how to catch a zombie joe biden edition. That seems to be the way they prefer to do it. Rather than im donald trump and i awe prove this message. Could that work for them . No. You can spend money wisely. You can maximize it or have a will the of dollars and blow it. Thats what the Trump Campaign did. They had a will the of dollars and blew it early on. They didnt have a spending strategy. Thats the problem. When they throw these things up online without having a thought process behind it they cant burn a message. Thats what the lack of fund right now the Trump Campaign has is really hurting trump. Not that he has a message. If he wanted to even get one out there, its not enough time or money for the donald Trump Campaign to be successful and burning another message and getting out to the public. They can try zombie whatever. They will be among walking dead. Before i come to you, clever. Ten points. Before i come to you, with regard to that, i wonder if maybe because theyre spending on social in addition to television, but heavily on social. It might not matter as much this time around. Social media is so much more about emotion than information. And as long as you get the base fired up and get the message repeated and the tropes repeated. That might be enough to just keep the base. It might be too small. It might still do the trick with whatever is there. Social media is a great way to advertise. It can be truly effective. How you do it and with what message does matter. Trump has only appealed to his base. Never to the voters that maybe could be he could have drawn in after he was elected. So i think youre right. Hes basically going to the same people over and over and over again. Hes got them. He just doesnt have anybody else. And not effective of using social media campaign. Just like they havent led an Effective Campaign in broadening the base. Lets zoom out a bit with spending. According to advertising analysis. Seven of the ten most Expensive Senate campaigns are happening this year. Seven of the ten most expensive. Look at the big ones on the screen. You have the race in South Carolina. Harrison vs. Graham. Raised 57 million in the third quarter. You have mark kelly in arizona. Dramatically out raising mcsally. With 39 million to her 22. 6 million. Whats up with all the big ticket fund raising . You saw the u. S. Supreme court really for the first time in recent history really energize the democratic base. Across the country. And really is a big reason for the big fund raising both that joe biden is seeing. Wu certainly in a lot of the senate races. Which this money is coming from donors. Both within and well outside of the states. In South CarolinaLindsey Graham is the chair. Of the Senate Judiciary committee. Hes the one who said hold me to it. When he said that in 2016 that a Supreme Court nominee shouldnt be confirmed in a president ial election year. He totally flipflopped on that position. And the democrats are doing all they can to try to help make him pay for it and remind him and hold him accountable for the words. In the past the Supreme Court has been a republican issue. Something that galvanized the base on the right. For the first time this year with so many things at stake. From Reproductive Health to affirmative action. Its really been a big energizer on the democratic side. Do we have any sense of how effective tv adds are this time around . We see kind of the two standard kinds of ads. Im josh johnson i would like to represent you because i believe in small town america and im here for main street. Not wall street. Theres that. And the whos putting money in Josh Johnsons pocket these days . Could it be big media . Its the two kind of ads and theres nothing in the middle. In an era of social media i feel like you can mount a campaign smartly through fortune and facebook and beat the pants off somebody. No matter how much money. You said a lot. Ill try to get to it. You should be writing scripts for these things. No. No, do not tempt me. A couple things yo put out that should be addressed. You reach a point of diminishing returns. People know who theyll vote for and but youre going at some point the tv ads get old. Unless a campaign has made use of the first angle. Thats something that is important this year. Given that so many people for the first time will vote for election day. Wipe the people off the roll. And target voters who you know havent participated yet. And find their most specific angle. Maybe direct mail or facebook. Or text messaging. Thats the hyper targeting you can do when you have money like joe biden. And you have eliminated a substantial amount of the voter base. Thats something you can spend the money on. Except tv. Last thing id like to say, this is a fight after november 3. I guarantee that with all the money raised across the races and on both side, not enough has been spent with minority firms. Thats extraordinarily important. That was made earlier. One of the points he made was that now you look at Spanish Language tv and there are ton of ads in spanish. When they could have been spending the money months ago to try to get an early before the voice were crowded out. Can i ask you about two of the b big races in Southern States. Lindsey graham with harrison. And then the race between mcgrath and Mitch Mcconnell. It feels like those two races are would be gold stars for the Democratic Senate caucus. If they can unseat those two. Particularly Mitch Mcconnell because everything that democrats want to do seems to stop by his very existence. Whats your sense of how the races are going . Wow. If the democrats pull off those two seats they are closer to 60 than to 51. That will be a day reckoning. No doubt. Whats interesting talking about how do you spend a lot of money. Harrison decided to support a Third Party Candidate who has called himself more conservative than Lindsey Graham. There are ways to be get a message out there when you have extra cash on hand. And use it effectively. That can be one of the ways hes successful. When you look at mcconnell, i dont think hes as vulnerable as it looks. The money raised was against him. And sending a signal and a message. But you never know in this environment. Anything can happen. With regard to Mitch Mcconnells race. I wonder what it says if Mitch Mcconnell remains a senator in the same state that has been royaled by protests over breonna taylor. If i was running against mcconnell, that would be my hot campaign issue. Asking him about that morning, noon and night. I dont want to presume that will be enough to put a candidate over the top. How do you think it will factor into the kentucky race . Its certainly a factor. Particularly fund raising in a year where this is a major civil rights issue. The killing of unarmed black people by police. We have seen it be a major issue nationwide. In kentucky, particularly you have a one two punch of that and the coronavirus. Which is in a lot of Southern States has proven to be the game changer. The polls in places like texas and South Carolina. And georgia. People are they still like trump when it comes to the economy. But they dont. They are losing faith in his ability to handle the crisis. He hasnt. And know you cant rebound an economy without getting the virus under control. There are multiple factors here. I agree that kentucky will be a tough race for mcconnell to lose. But he could very well be on track to lose the Senate Majority leader position. If enough Democratic Energy behind the response to the coronavirus and civil rights and Racial Justice issues propel democrats nationwide. I want you to know that its your fault i am Hearing Campaign ads playing in my head. My mind is writing them in the back of my head. Im struggling to focus. I blame you for that. Write all of them you want. You have to get people to hire you. Thats what were talking about. Minority owned firms. I have no plausible deniability. Well talk about it later.

Tons of americans have sat out every election until this one. We spoke to a few of them about what makes this year different. I actually am somebody that never wanted to vote. I thought one vote wont matter. I couldnt hold a intelligent conversation about politics with anyone. The idea that nobody in office really cares about us. I didnt really even Pay Attention to what was going on. I didnt know anything about donald trump or joe biden. Until just this last year. Im a smart girl. But not educated like i felt like i needed to be. I had nothing to say. I didnt vote in 2016. I always told myself it didnt matter. Youre not a part of the problem. Watching now, i was a part of the problem. I didnt stand up and register. This year im going to matter. And my vote does count. And im going to have a say in how im represented. And my daughters for the next four years at least. I really have to spend a lot of time researching and so now i have realized that my vote is my voice. My son who is heavily into politics had really got me to start paying attention. Start looking at things that are going on. And it got me questioning wondering why is this the way it is. Why is that that way. I decided i cant sit back and be quiet. And be silent. I have to sign up and vote. Something has to give. I have opinions that matter now. I think its going to be awesome. I have to find out the safest way to take my ballot where ever it needs to go. I have an autoimmune disease. Which has me on medication and on some immune suppressants. I made the decision if push comes to shove and i have to risk my life to stand in line to vote. The state of the world is worth me standing in line if i have to. If we all put in one vote. And make our selection. Go in. All of us who think our opinions dont matter and votes dont count. If we all think that way and nobody votes. There wont be any change. Still to come.

Joining us us now a contributor for launcher. A section of the Washington Post that covers gaming and e sports. Welcome. Thank you for having me on. What is it about among us that makes it so much fun . The thing about it the easiest way is it takes a tv game show formatt and into a new medium. You are combining the survivor, clue, the board game. And adding all the things that have made gaming popular. Twitch the online the interactive element. Importantly its easy to pick up. Its not requiring to click a million times per second or watch a whos coming around the corner and shoot them. So its a accessibility and classic sort of elements from tv game shows that people loved for a long time. And you can play it on a smart phone. You dont need a fancy controller. What is twitch . Twitch the easiest way is its a platform that allows gamers to broadcast themselves playing video games. And its interactive in a sense. Theres usually a person in the bottom corner as their little window. And then people can chat and interact. And from a median standpoint think of it like the next phase of radio. We put it in the article that came out. How was this live stream with aoc and omar received . Its easy for people from one generation trying to reach out to a yupger generation to feel like greetings fellow youth. Lets talk about the cable television. And it goes off really badly. This seems to go well. It was the meme hes hello fellow kid. There was none of that. One of her gifts is relatability. She can come into the mediums and platforms. And talk normally to people. It doesnt feel scripted. Shes speaking their language. And able to be authentic. Even with the terminology she uses. And any club. If youre able to use the terminology and act like people are usually acting you fit in. It was a hit. Over 400,000 people can currently watching it. Fourth most popular stream on twitch ever. Maybe higher if you include the concurrent streams taking place. From that standpoint it was all tremendous spark of success. In terms of getting people to vote that is remains to be seen. This was a stream with two women. Particularly two women of color. And the Online Gaming world hz had tremendous problems with sexism and racism. In a number of corners. Gamer gate. This huge scandal about just really borish behavior. By some juvenile dudes online. Who thought it was cool it say all kind of awful things to women. And people of color online. I dont know if that stood out to you. That aspect of it really stood out. Absolutely. Its one of the first things that myself and my editor noticed. We covered it had. We really did a deep dive. It was last year. Just looking to see why is this so difficult . Why cant the platforms begin to handle these things and create incentive to not do it. They have done it to a certain extent. This is a lingering problem in the Gaming Community. One that is slowly being addressed certainly not fast enough. But im glad you brought it up. This i think well look back and see it was a for Gaming Community and politics. The more that the sort of that behavior is not normalized and acceptable, it was great. Last five seconds. Ps 5 or x box series x . I have to stay neutral. Smart man. I was trying to get you in trouble. Im sorry. Thank you. Ps 5. Thats just me. Last night we asked you how you became woke.

Lets get to some of your emails. We asked what happened to or around you that made you politically aware. How did you get woke . Lots of you wrote about vietnam. Norma from richmond, texas, writes, i was in my early teens and had a friend who had been there and told us how our soldiers didnt believe in the war, which made my question it. I listened to some of the news shows and realized we shouldnt be there, but too many politicians were doing the bidding of large corporations. I also learned about Racial Injustice during those years. The music back then was about living together in peace and caring for each other. I still catch myself singing country joe and the fishes next t stop is vietnam. It still gets to me and that mood feels appropriate during this time. Greg from independence, kentucky, writes, i was a freshman in the late 70s and my high school was doing a mock election reagan vs. Carter. I asked my mom for advise. She said vote for whoever the republican is. This was in kentucky, which still has a Straight Party option. This made me skeptical and got me thinking, theres got to be more to it than that. So i dug into some newspaper coverage, liked carter, but eventually decided on the independent, john anderson. Ive been following politics ever since. Paul in bloomington, minnesota, writes, my political awakening happened on september 11th, 2001, on the day our nation was attacked i started paying attention. The first thing i saw was our nation traumatized by terrorism. The second thing i saw was the hateful retaliatory attacks against muslims by white citizens. That was my introduction to a true understanding of the difference between racism and antiracism and my responsibility as a White American to work toward antiracism. By the way, that term antiracist refers to actively raising your awareness of racial issues and proactively helping root out racism in everyday life. Rebecca writes, as a young 16yearold whos part native american, my political awakening came when i found a book on the American Indian movement and leonard pelt fell on my lap at the library. I then walked across the country until my feet bled into the ground with the American Indian movement when i was 19 years old on the walk across america for mother earth. I ended up becoming a native american activist, albeit silenced for 32 years and a National Bernie Sanders delegate. So many amazing stories. Thank you for sharing them all. Finally, a correction. In my essay last night i mentioned Christa Mcauliffe, the schoolteacher who died in the challenger explosion. I incorrectly said she had taught in Palm Beach County, where im from. According to nasa, she actually taught in maryland and new hampshire. The error probably took root in my brain because Palm Beach County has a Christa Mcauliffe middle school. Regardless, i should have triple checked it. Sorry about that. Sit tight. Steve kornacki is up next with a onehour election special. Until we meet again, im joshua johnson. Thank you for making time for us and make it a wonderful week. Good night. And make it a wonderful week good night smooth driving pays off with allstate, the safer you drive the more you save you never been in better hands allstate click or call for a quote today or psoriatic arthritis, Little Things can become your big moment.

We are less than ten days to go, nine days to be exact, until election day. This really is the home stretch of the 2020 campaign. This truly is a year unlike any other. And another stark reminder of that tonight, early votes that have been cast so far in this president ial election, theres the total cast so far. That number as of today is now higher than the total early vote for the entire early Voting Period four years ago. We are now past it and there are still, as we say, nine days to go, nine more days of ballots to be coming in before were actually at election day and before the big board behind
