trump and then dave mccormick, a former hedge fund ceo, who has also they have both been spending millions of dollars, millions and millions of dollars over the airwaves over the last several months. we have seen them go at each other both over the airwaves and also in their campaign stops and stump speeches. and as that happened, kathy barnette really creeped up and now she is surging right at the right time, during this republican primary. so it will be interesting to see how that all plays out and who will ultimately emerge victorious here in pennsylvania. it s whoever wins the most votes. there s not a 50.1 rule. so we ll certainly see how that all plays out tonight. former pennsylvanian jessica dean, thanks so much. turning to another big story this election day, the fate of scandal prone congressman madison caw torn. we re live in henderson, north carolina. a lot of republicans in north
we re on the verge of a lot of roads crumbling. nobody is talking about that. nobody is talking about the inflation of gas prices. people are not talking about the war on russia and ukraine. they re not talking about the oil and what this is costing the american people. people have to understand that people go to work to make a living. we don t go to work to put gas in our car. sometimes we have to be more human and understand our family units. i don t think that a lot of candidates are thinking about that. they re still talking about stump speeches and feel good speeches. at the end of the day, how as americans how are we going to survive as people. martha: deb, what do you think matters as you look to mid-terms and how is the country doing as a whole? inflation has to be number 1. the egg prices here in norwalk were about 79 cents before easter. they re $2.63 a dozen right now.
though that is false, the fact that they believe that is the fault of the biden team. right? that s not i worked in communications. i know how it is. if you don t communicate clearly and know how to reach the audience properly, then that s on you. that s your fault, right? if you are making stump speeches, migrants abroad are not hearing that. so that s our fault. and the problem is that there is no end in site on that, right? and this is this is going to remain a problem i think for the rest of his first term. all right. good to see you, my friend. thanks for that inciteful exchange. always. coming up, one of the largest humanitarian crises in the world. want to help? we ll tell you more about it. stick around. stick around but we did agree this rug was perfect. okay. stop being weird. mom and daughter agreeing on something.
to figure out a way for all of this narrative to make sense. so what is the what is the plan for tomorrow? like, where do things stand on that froont for what we expect to see where i am in washington, ben? they re in hagerstown, maryland, right now, going from small town to small town all throughout the country. refueling and giving stump speeches at these small places. even until right now, they were in indianapolis for two days and still trying to figure out a plan to watch what to do in washington, d.c. some of them say they want to go to the white house, which they re not going to go to make it to the white house. some say they want to politic the beltway, which is 64 miles along. i can tell you right now, hallie, a lot of people have written this off, because there have been these false starts throughout the country. this one pass picked up steam. there are people weight on those overpasses. there are hundreds of cars in this convoy, dozens of semis in
that they re not respectful to police and that s why they get arrested. and it it goes on and on. but my point is the youngkin campaign signed off on her being a surrogate for them. wow. larry, what did you think of that? well, i just want to add one thing. you know, mark is young and you re young, but i m ancient and i have been here in virginia since the 1960s and i ve noticed one little thing. every time a republican is either behind or in a really close race they find a way to drag race into the campaign. every time. every time. sometimes it s immigrants. sometimes it s blacks. sometimes it s latinos, other groups. and this critical race theory discussion and mark is right, it isn t in the ads. it s in the stump speeches. critical race theory is a way of speaking to whites and saying to whites don t let the blacks take over. they ve already taken over.
