A recap of the days news. The russia investigation, but i think in terms of optics as people watch all of this, it doesnt paint a picture of a group of men and donald trump is among them in the broader sense who play outside the rules, who bend rules when it comes to the financial stuff. Who are playing with players, oligarchs, that word thats been banned from the courtroom. And i do think it lends a general impression from the general public of people who have secrets to hide and those secrets coming out. What i think what was so interesting today is that rick gates also admitted that hes a liar, that he cheated paul manafort. Hundreds of thousands of dollars. Right, so how do you figure out that testimony which is very damning because Defense Attorneys are going to get up and say have you not admitted youre a liar . And unreliable.

for drivers with accident forgiveness liberty mutual won t raise their rates because of their first accident. liberty mutual insurance. liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty it is all about ohio district 12 tonight. so let s check in on that race. troy balderson, the republican, with 50.2% at this point. danny o connor, the democrat nominee, 49.3%. we re told there could be provisional ballots. so a ways before this is anywhere near being certified. let s check in be kristin fisher. he sounded pretty optimistic tonight. is he claiming victory? absolutely. if you ask any balderson
it s pretty wild. maybe back out to ohio as this kicks up again in the fall. thank you very much. new tonight, democrat darling senator elizabeth warren is taking another step to the left and now appears to be attacking america s entire criminal justice system. hi, shannon. at the time elizabeth warren was participating in a q&a session in new orleans. the massachusetts senator talked about what she says are disproportionate arrests of african-americans for petty drug possession. watch her. it s racism.

votes. that is a wider margin than we had seen just an hour or so ago. at one point these two candidates, danny o connor, the democrat, and troy balderson the republican, were separated by 155 votes. so a 1754-vote lead is sort of massive for balderson right now in the context of how close this race is. one quick note that hasn t been noted a lot tonight. the green party got 1,127 votes. so not enough to tip the ballots, but without the green party candidates and those votes on the left, the democrat candidate o connor would have been even closer. so there might be some frustration on the democratic side as well when you talk about socialists and others pulling the party to the left. the green party candidate ended up making this kind of more interesting. without the green party
we have to elect troy. well, president donald trump at a rally on saturday for troy balderson, republican candidate in that special election in ohio s 12th district tonight. the race as we ve been telling you, we are currently saying too close to call. balderson leading democrat danny o connor by less than a percentage point. voters will not learn the final vote till all the absentee and provisional votes are counted. maybe the reason we have such suspense, maybe there s a recount as mandate bid state law. the president has already declared victory. earlier tonight he tweeted when i decided to go to ohio for troy badder son, he was down 64-36. that was not good. after my speech on saturday night, there was a big turn for the better. he wins a great victory during a tough type of the year for voting. he will win big in november followed by another tweeting congratulations to troy badder son on a great win in ohio.
