hello, thank you so much for joining us. i m ana cabrera in new york. it s almost half time for the biden presidency. after tomorrow, it could be a whole different game on capitol hill. the strategy, the players, about to be put to the test. so far more than 41 million votes have already been cast in this midterm election. we are on top of all the critical matchups. let s start in nevada. gary tuchman is in clark county for us. a county that s poised to decide a key senate race that could decide which party controls the senate. and gary, snort cortez masto is considered one of the most vulnerable democratic senators up for re-election. can dems afford to lose her seat? reporter: well, that s right. you know, in this dynamic state with a population double over the last 25 years and tripled over the last 35 years, there are three high-profile races. but as you said, there s one that s above them all, the u.s. senate race. the democratic incumbent, catherine cortez masto, is c
immigrants are hoodwinked, promised shelter and jobs, only to end up at martha s vineyard because of a republican governor s immigration protest stunt. how volunteers have come to the migrant s rescue. and the ceo of fedex delivering a dire warning about the economy with his company on the front line of the supply chain crisis. welcome to the lead. we ll start with that ceo s gut punch. the head of fedex warning that not only does he think that the united states is headed for a recession, but business is starting to slow around the world. that message created a lot of anxiety on wall street today. fedex stock tumbled, the dow is closing this hour after spending a day in the red. let s bring in cnn s alison kosik. we often come to you at the top of the show when the markets are either substantially up or massively down, but this time, it s this comment from fedex that is getting the world s attention. and fedex s ceo was pretty direct about where he thinks the economy
