[laughter] would you like us to come closer? bret: dana, and you talk about these earth races and a lot of them are really tight and it is basically just down to turn out. and two years ago we were here and thatnd was the most exciting election night that we all express together. this is pretty exciting. there is a white potential friday about comes a that could happen on tuesday night and neither party has really done a thing of under promising so they could overdeliver u and everyone has overpromised. the biggest risk for the democrat s they have these and if they fall short of hitting those then there s a measurable and a lot of blaming and because you know that on the night at midnight is the starting pistol for the 2020 election. there will be all this jockeying and i don t know legislatively how much it will matter in the next two years whatever happens in the house of representatives
on the flipside that closing argument i think will hurt republicans in the house and the president has made that cognition and we will see what happens there but the one thing we have not talked a lot about is governor races. 2020 redistricting and there will be probably anywhere from five-ten democratic pickups in the races crucial when you talk about what the house map will look like after the next election. that is really important and democrats have a lot of places they are supposed to pick up seats s. martha: thank you, everybody. bret: that is true. historic levels of enthusiasm from voters ahead of the high-stakes midterm so what of a the top issues driving people to the polls? that is next.l? that s next with my bladder leakage, the products i ve tried just didn t fit right. they were too loose. it s getting in the way of our camping trips. but with a range of sizes, depend fit-flex is made for me. with a range of sizes for all body types, depend fit-flex underwear is guarantee
polling indicates the most danger forcing democrat senders in north dakota, indiana, missouri, montana and florida and the democratic candidates in all those places are trying to hold their seats by promoting their support for obamacare. bret. bret: peter doocy, live in miami. martha: as you can see a lot of the races are tight and president trump is heading to indiana tomorrow for today former president obama was firing up the crowd hoping to boost for the incumbent. mike is liveut in plymouth, indiana but what did president obama have to say out there? reporter: former president was polarizing. he told the packed convention center in gary, indiana for the democrats the republicans are robbing them fly. off the couchetff and never has about been more important. in two days, indiana, you get to vote and what i believe will be the most important election our lifetimes.
34 million plus and there s a lot people engaged in the selection and in turn offered back that compared to 57 million in thehe presidential elections and at the big number. we are likely to see a big turnout everywhere and a very long one because will have closely contested races to house, senate andd i would not e surprised if the control of house came down literally several dozen races where there are several thousand votes sabrina candidates. it will be a late night for all of us and i think we ve never seen this type of historical early voter and never seen this much money go into house races met democratic perspective. it feels a little better for us in the house and i m not this whole blue wave stuff. my gut tells me we should be able to win the house because based on whated i ve here heard
midterms, all 134 seats are up for grabss and members of congress, democrats will need a net gain of 23 seats to reclaim the majority and that is clearly their goal. mike emanuel live on capitol hill with more tonight. what are real because they seem leading up to tuesday? reporter: they are 42 open house seats due to retirement or members running for office. you lose the and commit a mighty and fundraising advantage. places to watch tonight in virginia republicann barbara comstock and dave pratt are excited to have tough races in suburban districts. in new jersey tom and leonard in a blue statee are two seats to watch. if they hold on republicans may hold their own. if the seats in the two in virginia go to democrats that will be a signal that could be a very long night for the gop. today meetinghouse will and protected the gop will get it donene. we will hold out. i feel the enthusiasm every can see it and were getting large
