Trump complained they kept the polling location open later than they should have. Those people were waiting in line. Thats normal. Record latino voter turnout. Lets talk to the Campaign Managers. Starting with robby mook. Thank you for joining us this morning. I know you welcomed that news from james comey yesterday. Did it come too late . It was bizarre he sent the first letter saying he had some information. We were glad, obviously, this was resolved. I dont understand hi he couldnt have just looked into the matter and resolved it campaign. Were glad in the last day, hillary can get back out on the road, celebrate the historic turnout that we have seen across the country and talk about the vision she has for our country. Were releasing a special 2 00 advertisement advertisement this evening. Shell make her closing case to the voters. Shes up by about four points. Is that where you see the race . Not really paying too much attention to the polls. But, what i am paying close attention to are those early voting numbers. We saw just eyepopping turnout in florida over the last two days. Particularly in our strong holds in southern florida. North carolina and elsewhere. Were feeling encouraged and positive. We want everybody to participate. You talk about the vote. You have seen a surge in the latino votes. In nevada and florida. Have they delivered those states to secretary clinton . If she wins, we expect her to do so, it will be in part because of enormous turnout in the latino community. And the asianamerican community. Theres really a Clinton Coalition that is formed of women, latinos, asianamericans, were seeing them turn out at record levels. Your blue fire wall. Pennsylvania, minnesota, michigan. Any of those states in danger . He needed to get them into play much earlier. Im not concerned that hes spending so much time there at the end because he didnt build a ground game. Just this week end, we made 8. 1 million phone calls. We have an apparatus in place to turn out our vote. I dont think donald trump dashing to the states at the last hour i needed to get his supporters out. What was the key moment in this campaign for you . The convention and the the debates were the big opportunity for hillary to speak directly to the voters in an unfiltered way. Every time she had the opportunity to make her case, when voters got the see her up against donald trump, she did best. Those were our best moments. Both just in terms of the vibe out there but also in the be great president. When shes in action, she does great job. Robby mook. Thank you very much. Thanks, george. Now lets get the view from the Trump Campaign. Kellyanne conway is back. You to expect mr. Comeys find sngs and do you admit what mr. Trump said was wrong hen he said the emails would be devastating . Im so dismayed that the week ago and now hes a hero. You all were attacking him before that. He said in july she was reckless and careless. She should not have set up the server. She lied about the number of devices she had. She said one. Jim comey said under oath about seven. Turned out to be about 13. I think her honest and trust budged. Do you accept that the chase is closed . I do. It doesnt help Hillary Clinton that were talking about the emails, whats in the wikileaks. I think she would rather be on a more positive message. Im struck that mr. Trump is out there, five, six states a day, making an argument about whats next . How to make us more prosperous. Hillary clinton is spending tense of millions of dollars theyre encouraged by the early vote in florida especially among latinos. Your reaction . We get an early vote report every day. Were encouraged about where he is in north carolina, florida, ohio, as compared to governor romney in 2012. We invested in the rnc millionsa of dollars in the early voting program. Like florida and north carolina. You have to find way to pick off one of the blue states that have gone to democrats traditionally. Youre going to minnesota, michigan, pennsylvania. All the public polls there show donald trump has never been in the lead. Michigan is tied. Its something we have seen in our internal data for awhile. There was a public vote this weekend showing the same thing. Same thing in pennsylvania. Were very encouraged by the fact that Hillary Clinton is states that president obama had twice. If donald trump wins tomorrow night, somewhat the moment to put him over the top snchblgt it would be one of the upper midwest state ps. Like a michigan or wisconsin, minnesota. And or one of those Rocky Mountain states. Weve had our eye on on bringing back states that have voted republican in nonpresident ial years and where the poll numbers have been tightening. Semicompetitive on the air and on the ground with the Clinton Campaign. Kellyanne conway, thank you very much. Thank you, george. Our latest tracking poll Shows Hillary clinton with a fourpoint lead. A abcs jon karl is here. We heard trump is trying to turn blue states red. What did kellyanne say that struck you . The big thing is that they have to win one of those blue states. Heres whe red states, donald trump. Blue states, Hillary Clinton. For trump to win, by kellyannes own admission, they have to run the table on the tossup states. Including new hampshire, where, by the way, theres a new poll out today showing Hillary Clinton with an 11point lead. Even if they do the that, he still has 263 electoral votes. Not enough to win. Thats why they have to carry one of these bright blue states if they can do that, if he can find a way to take, for example, michigan, he gets to 279 and can win. As george said, not a single public poll since the conventions has had trump winning in any one of those states. Were looking at the map, it favors Hillary Clinton at this point. It does. While Hillary Clinton would need to do is hold all of the states she currently has the lead. Heres what they would like to do on the clinton team. The state of florida, florida, florida, if Hillary Clinton can win florida, take a look at what it does to the map. If she wins florida. Try that again. If she wins florida, 304 electoral votes. Even if trump wins all of those tossup states. Even if he wins the state of pennsylvania on top of that, he comes up short. Even pennsylvania and wisconsin, he doesnt get to 274. Lights out for donald trump. Well see what happens tomorrow. Thank you, jon. Now to amy for the mornings other top stories. Starting with heartbreaking news about janet reno. She passed away overnight after a 20year battle with parkinsons disease. She was the first woman to serve as u. S. Attorney general. She was appointed by president clinton. She was harshly criticized for the compoun compou compound. And the raid add that sent Elian Gonzalez back to cuba. The magty tuesday 5 quake in oklahoma hurt buildings in cushing.

The suspect is in custody. Finally, racing star Dale Earnhardt jr. Got a bit of a wakeup call on sunday. He was pulled over for speeding while driving to the texas motor speedway. The officer let him go with a warning. Someone on twitter asked him how fast he was going. His response, not fast enough. Parentally not. Amy, thank you very much. Boy, ginger, you dont see that often in el paso. They had shuffled it together. Still, our reporter from abc 7 down there standing on top of the pile. The flash flooding.

A nice cool start there, low to mid60s and then on wednesday theres that front coming in with awe if showers leaving us with low humidity and a bit there is no typical day.

Encouraging encouraging viewers to get out and vote. Amy will have more on that. They did have a field day all election long. Right now, the final dayton the campaign trail. Clinton calling on her top michelle obama. Theyre all going to be in philadelphia tonight. Trump works to turn blue states red. We have one day to go until the votes are in. And were going to be eight here in the middle of our election Head Quarters all through the night tomorrow night. We certainly will. Michael strahan will be out with the people. We van oval office out there in times square. Thats your headquarters are here right now. Cokie roberts and matt dowd. Watch that heavy weight. She knew what you meant. Yeah, she knew. She knew. We heard from both Campaign Managers in the first half hour. Kellyanne sounding optimistic. Everyone believing it will be a tight race. You dont feel that way so much, matt . Having been in her position in races before, theres not much more she can say. Probably about four or five points. I watched some of the new york marathon yesterday. Were in the 25th mile. And Hillary Clinton is about four miles ahead in the 25th mile of the new york marathon. He cant help himself. No i cant. Can donald trump still win . Yeah. She would have to stop running smep would have to walk. Probably fall down to lose at this point. 24 hours to go. Shes not walking today. Campaigning all day. We have never is seen anything so many about. The influence of james comey. Its phenomenal. The judgment is questionable. Hes not the prosecutor. Hes the head of the Nations Police force. To prom congress hell come back. He does come back. Now hes back again. Think the probably result of it is the democrats lose the senate. Hi hurt Hillary Clinton . Absolutely. What was happening before that she had come off the three debates. People were buying nasty woman tshirts. All of that. Then all the air went out of the campaign the day he sent that letter to congress. They would have spent this whole last week, she and her surrogates, on the trail campaigning for the senate. That just went away. It leads to trump and his supporters saying its rigged. Thats one of the concerns. Even if she wins, i think shell win with a larger margin than barack obama in 20 diversion coalition. Abraham lincoln was elected on that day in 1960, tomorrow. And she faces as divided a country, in my view, as Abraham Lincoln did in 1860 when he first got elected. But thank god, we dont have an issue like slavery. Real challenge to bring the country together. Our numbers on divisions in our pols are just remarkable. Education. Education. About evangelical whites. 97 points away from people who dont affiliate with a religion. Thats almost 100 . How does either one, after what we have seen this last year and half, bring the nation together . I think Hillary Clinton has to quickly reach out. Im curious. If she wins tomorrow night, which i think she will, shell ha paul ryan and Mitch Mcconnell have to step into the breach quickly. Shell do that. That is in her nature to do that. The letter george h. W. Bush sent to bill clinton, now its our country, your problems are our problems. Theres not one sport you havent referenced in the last year and half. Ill bring another one tomorrow. The challenge responsible well be here tomorrow. Well be here when the pols close tomorrow night. With our entire Political Team starting at 7 00 p. M. Eastern. Were going move on now to the serge farch for maszing mom california. Sherri papini disappeared while jogging. Her family found her cell phone. Its where and how that is sparking so many fears this young mother was, in fact, abducted. Her husband is opening up as the search intensifies. This morning, the husband o papini speaking out for the first time. She was definitely taken. Against her will. Reporter the 34yearold described by her family as a supermom is missing for five days. Seemingly vanishing without a trace. I received a text message from her at 10 37 a. M. That day, asking me if i was coming home from lunch. I usually dont bring my personal phone in on any job. Message until 1 39 p. M. Later that day. Reporter alarms initially going off for Family Members after she failed to pick up her two young kids from child care later that afternoon. She could drop her phone. She would never in a million years not pick up our children on the time that she normally would have. Reporter keith papini saying he traced her phone using the find my phone app discovering it by the side of the road. Shes considered at risk, due reporter she was last seen wearing a pink jogging top. Sench teams over the past five days scouring the surrounding area for clues, trying to piece together what could have possibly happened to this beloved mother. Shes a family that loves her. Please just bring her home. Reporter and sherri papinis family is offering a 50,000 reward to anyone who can provide any information leading to her location. We hope they get some answers. Nate silver is here. His predictions made headlines all week end long. He called all 50 states in 2012. Well hear from him in two minutes. Hey dad. Hey sweetie, how was your first week . Long. Itll get better. Im at the edward jones office, like sue suggested. Thanks for doing this, dad. So i thought it might be time to talk about a financial strategy. laughing you mean pay him back . Knowing your future is about more than just you. Its a big deal. And its how edward jones makes sense of investing. Its holiday time, and no fruit is as versatile as our ocean spray cranberries, which is why were declaring it the figs gonna be so bummed. [ chuckles ] and and its time for a special election edition of the big board. Our team of insiders all set to weigh in, including martha raddatz. Welcome. Thank you. Is this your i think it is. Excited. Whoohoo. First to nate silver of fivethirtyeight. You nailed 2008 and 2012. Where you to have the race today . We have Hillary Clinton getting about 300 electoral votes. Shes a 2 to 1 favorite to win tomorrow in our models. Why is yours so much cloetser, nate, than we heard from matt dowd and other predictions of, what is the reason for the difference . Ours is based on data and not full proof. In 2000, for example, george bush led by three points in the polls and lost the popular vote. Won the electoral college. President obama beat his polls in swing states on average. You have to think of the spread from maybe a sixpoint clinton win on the upside to a very, very, very close race on the downside. Thats how we make our forecast, based on history. Trump support es talk about the fact that polls dont they talk about the shy trump voters. What do you make of that . Its one argument for why trump could beat his polls. And there are a lot of undecided people. The Clinton Campaign has a better turnout operation. Materially data looks good for them, they think in florida and nevada. You cant pretend that polls are precise to within a percentage point or so. Its worth staying up tomorrow late night, nate. You got that right. Thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you. Now to american voters. So much is at stake. Emotions running high. Martha has been crisscrossing the country. Talking to voters. You were excited about moderating. More excited to be on the bid board. Much more excited. What are you hearing . You nailed it with the word emotion. Theyre so emotional. So well informed. Its sometimes you hit a voter over the the years, who is running again . Everybody knows who is running. Everybody knows what is at stake. Everybody knows twhat issues are. And everybody agrees on one thing. They cannot wait until tomorrow is over. We hear that over and over again. No accident that the campaigns are converging on philadelphia tonight. The president , first lady, clintons, donald trump will be there. You spent time in that city and the surrounding suburbs. Whole country. It is. What happens in the collar areas right around philadelphia. But i was out in western pennsylvania. And i think more than anything, that state shows the divide. You have philadelphia, you have the suburbs. And probably particularly, obviously, in fphiladelphia, fo Hillary Clinton. You go western pennsylvania. Its a different state. Its absolute blight out there pop you have a d of a small town who all these months said he might vote for donald trump. Now, just a couple of days ago, i was with him, he said, i dont know who im going to vote for. I might vote for myself. Good thing in philadelphia that the transit strike seems to be over. People will be able to get to the polls. Good news. Makes a big difference. Every campaign a piece of history. The historical significance of this one. Author and president ial historian. Thank you for joining us. If Hillary Clinton wins, the first woman president. Its a monumental development, george. A monumental leap forward for women. Think about it, 100 years ago, women didnt have the right to vote. They only got the right to vote in 1920. Nearly a century later, the possibility of elections the first female president. 40 years ago, we were debating an amendment to the kops constitution that rights for women. Additionally, the potential of a president living ournd the roof of the white house with a former president. Someone who was just president 16 years ago. The closest we come the that are fatherson president s. We get that with John Quincy Adams and john adams, his father. And george w. Bush and george h. W. Bush, his father. Just eight years between their presidencies. And donald trump could make a bit of history as well, right . President , as age 70. The oldest to this point was ronald reagan, 69 when he took office. Office. A couple of weeks shy of his 70th birthday. Donald trump would be the first president without having served in the military or without electing to a previous position. He will be the most wealthy. We dont know how wealthy. Hes made history by not releasing his tax washington on wealth. It is hard to catch george washington. Let me ask you each. We dont know the outcome. Nate, what are you going to remember most about the whole process this year . I mean, i think donald trump winning the nomination is one of the most interesting shocking events in american history. Period. So win or lose, the electorate is a lot different. The Republican Party is different than we thought mark . The negativity. The kptds both have negative ratings above 50 . The first time in our history. I think were ready to see this election become history. What say you, martha . How wrong we were and how it swings back and forth. Back and forth. The whiplash. Its all over tomorrow. Almost. The voting tomorrow. A little laughter can go a long way this election season. Next. Ing lien the strength to outrun her brother. Thanks for giving victor the energy to be the rowdiest fan. And joseph, the ability to see monsters. When you choose walgreens, you choose to make a difference. Like how every vitamin and flu shot you get at walgreens helps give lifechanging vitamins and vaccines. To children in need. So, really. Happy thanks for giving good is in every blue diamond almond. A good that comes in 20 flavors from whole natural to wasabi and soy sauce. And once good gets going, theres no stopping it. Get your good going. Blue diamond almonds. That was invigorating youre probably wondering why ive just carved a giant wooden tiger. Well, the answer is that a real one would maul me. Ive crafted dr. Whiskers here as a visual aid carmax associates will not pounce like tigers because people dont like that. Come here to buy a car. Dr. Whiskers wont pounce. Nobody will. . . Life can be messy. But with crayola color wonder. It doesnt have to be. Dont you wish life could be this messfree . Color wonder. Find it in the crayola aisle. The the whole election has been so mean. I just feel so gross all the time. Dont yo feel gross about all this . Alec baldwin and Kate Mckinnon going out with a bang on saturday night live. They may be the only people that love the entire campaign, its been a te its been a tense election. A little laughter goes a long way. Comedians from late night tv to saturday night live are helping us do just that. Laugh a little. The candidates have provided plenty of material to work with. Its me, hillary from 2008. Oh, hi hillary. Hello. Rudy july yanny was on fox news yesterday you seem to be six. You look tired. Can you open this jar of pickles . This has not been tampered with. [ grunting ] oh, oh. The only thing the media is talking about is emails. Its like if during the o. J. Trial even was focused on whether or not the ford bronco had uptodate registration. Im the only candidate up here who is not a billionaire. I dont have a superpac. My arms like a professor. The big star of the Convention Last night, as you may know, was melania trump. She gave this spech of Michelle Obamas life last night. You to think the scandals will doom your husbands chances among women . No, no. Its boy talk. Theyre all animals. If only a woman could be president. You want to win . Heres what you gotta do. First, yell. I yell all the time. In fact, this phone isnt even plugged in. Im just yelling. This man is clearly unfit to be commander in chief. Wrong. She is a bully. Shut up. He started the birther movement. You did. Hillarys next debate performance, she should bring her body double so trump doesnt snow which one to lurch behind. Number two. Its a big deal. And number three. I need to bet back to 2008 and send a bunch of email. No. Can i mess your hair up . And and now, its time to get out there and vote. None of this will have mattered if you dont vote. And we cant tell you who to vote for, but on tuesday, we all get a chance to choose what kind of country we want to and live from new york its saturday night. That was a poignant moment. Urging everyone to vote. It will be interesting to see where they go from here. They have another show this saturday. It will be election theemd. They lose the two main roles.

In my house, we cook two birds. One, the traditional way. For the other one, we break it we cook the legs and wings with something called a confit. Herbs, rosemary, pepper, salt. We bury it in this mix for a cup kofl hours. Rinse it off. Take the legs and wings, put it in the confit. Its a pretentious word that means cooking it in its own juices. We do it.

The instinct that the bird is done . What is that . Its like a sixth sense. People dont realize its still cooking when y out. It has to cool down. Rest.
