Thank you so much thank you so much for joining us. Cnn news night with abby phillip starts now tonight, i m a republican imagine if 2000 for her this from 2020 before dick cheney will be voting for kamala harris, a nailbiter election turns american politics upside down, plus whatever sentence since donald trump receives, voters won t know about it until after they cast their ballots also the republican nominee rips his female accusers while he tries to port female voters. She would not have been the chosen one. And an obama vet warns that democrats are too confident i think it s very possible to election were held today, trump would away live at the table, shermichael singleton, ashley allison, bryan lanza, keith boykin, and geoff duncan welcome to a special edition of newsnight state of the race good evening everyone i m abby phillip in new york. Let s get right to what america is talking about hell has officially frozen over tonight. Former vice president dick cheney, who democrats
numbers of voters at this point to change their vote, i think that s highly, highly unlikely. you know, it is something for donald trump to talk about other than rigged polls. and accusers of misconduct on his part. and he if he s smart, he will seize on it and talk about it. but i don t think it s going to be the decisive issue in this election. i think that so much has been baked into the cake at this point that the notion that this will sway what has been a pretty large trend line for a while seems very remote to me. well, in fact, he has already talked about it twice today and it s only 11:09 eastern time so that tells you something every appearance it would be unusual for him to stay on a topic for a long period of time and not so stay tuned. we ll see if he can do that.
increase approximately 20%. arizona, 11%. those are the issues that americans are going to be voting on. and he needs to stay on message. thing he can win this. i absolutely do. he s a work horse. he was he did five events yield in florida. four today. the guy doesn t stop. so doug, amy s saying he needs to stay on message. it seems at leert for the moment he s gotten that message. the last two hours. the last two hours, he s spoken twice. he talked about obamacare. is that if he does stay on message and look, if you look at the history of this election, that is a very big if is that enough donald trump never stays on message. we shouldn t applaud him because he doesn t say something crazy for two hours. in politics, it s a disaster. what we ve seen for the past week or so, a big part of donald
universe of people who are being affected here for the reasons that christine said. younger people aren t signing up in the numbers that had been hoped originally. so that has to be worked on in the next four years. it seems doubtful to me this is going to be the decisive issue in the election but certainly will be fodder for donald trump in the days to come. all right, but this was such a big deal for the obama white house. i mean, it is called obamacare. it is such a big deal for democrats in congress and senate getting this through. hillary clinton obviously has staked a claim on health care like this. the fact this is coming out two weeks before the election, not just that, that people are voting right now in key states. to you, do you think that this is this enough that republicans can say i told you so as they re heading to the polls or is this an october surprise too late? i will say that they will say i told you so, whether it s enough to influence large
and so we did a lot of research. we know him up and down. i looked at the wikileaks research on trump. they didn t have anything we didn t have. short of breaking into nbc and getting all the footage that they cut, i don t think there was any more for us to get. just establish, you are voting for trump, right? i am, sure, i m going to vote straight ticket. so who s going to win this race? if the election were today, hillary would win. but it is a margin of error race. it is tied or within the margin in all the key battleground states. think about this, if we were sitting two years ago, saying, okay, the republican nominee is going to win iowa, they re going to be either tied or really close in florida, they re going to win ohio, they re going to be competitive in maine, they re going to be competitive in pennsylvania somewhat, i d take my chances this year. but we didn t know that at the time. now we have a situation where there s new maps in play. so nevada s more in play. mr.
