and welcome back to our special weekend edition of out outfront. i m erin burnet. we re two days from election day. already, this is shaping up to be a midterm unlike none other. as of today 40 million americans voted and both sides are trying to get their base to the polls on election day. all day we ve seen rallies in georgia, pennsylvania, florida, arizona all of them and the biggest names for each party on the trail tonight. trump and biden headlining events this morning this evening. they know what is at stake because control of congress is on the line, house and senate. in the senate nevada pennsylvania are tossups and republicans only need to pick up one net seat to win the majority. just one. we have a team of reporters out tonight. obviously in the final hours, the race where you are could be the most important between dr. oz and john fetterman. reporter: it certainly could be. you laid it out so perfectly there. the other key thing to remember is this i
are in a fight for the finish, look at the map. you see the big names are hitting the trail in the final days. it tells you what you need to know about the race in states where frankly every single vote will count. and there is a remarkable ad we have to show you that claims to know what god wants. and on the 8th day god looked down on his planned paradise and said i need a protector so god made a fighter. oh my god. we are going to talk about that. i hope so. plus, the politics of pot, recreational marijuana is on the ballot in five states. most of them conservative red states. finally an issue that s bringing americans together getting high. [ laughter ] well, when you go low, they go high. i had to. i don t know why. it kalcame out as a whole thing fantastic. let s bring our experts on that. we have cnn political commentator scott jennings and keith and mark mckinnon. gent gentlemen, great to have you. i do live at 10,000 feet so i know something about
there is a lot of talk she might potentially run in 2024 against donald trump and she has got no chance whatsoever of winning the republican nomination in this current republican party. there is also talk she might go back to virginia, which is where she spent a lot of time growing up while her father was in washington and might run in a district or in the state there. you know, it s an interesting thing, though. the january 6th committee, erin, did a lot of good. they did a lot of serious investigation, brought out a lot of new facts but as a voting issue, last time i checked a couple weeks ago that house democrats had spent a total of 2% of their advertising on january 6th. so there are a lot of other issues they think are a lot more important to voters. so let s talk about the race in florida, ron desantis running for reelection on tuesday for governor. his campaign released an ad how god picked a fighter to become
going to speak for mandela because he s running a hell of a race as a qualified candidate. there is nothing ir redeemable about the country. you want to reimagine what she looks like. throwing out we re anti american, this, that, he s a black man with tattoos named mandela. can we talk about the ecosystem this resonates because the same thing was used against barack obama which is that you are the elite, something, something and something, something you look down on us. right. the comments about clinging to guns and that sort of thing being used against him and i think that you it s very easy in an era of triable politics to look at people and say someone is looking down on you and it s them. well, when you say in pennsylvania barack obama comes to pennsylvania and say they cling to guns, god and religion, talking about me and my family, it is offensive. very offensive, right? the entire picture.
great radio announcer. i m sure it will play to a certain audience. i m sure a lot of christian evangelicals but to say god created a fighter over and over and to continue to show pictures of the governor ron desantis is as you say curious. it is amazing. i can t believe anybody would be comfortable about such a thing appearing about them on television but i suppose that is what it takes have to see that. another big story following the war in ukraine and shredded shoes, clothing and bones. the search in ukraine to honor the dead. translator: it s important for the families, for us, for the country that we bring them home.
