Today for to 79 at cardiac. Com or amazon. This is cnn the Worlds News Network thank you so much for joining me this saturday. Im fredricka whitfield, and we begin this hour with our breaking news. Vice president then Kamala Harris has accepted an invitation from cnn to debate former President Trump on October 23. This would be their second meeting on a public like Debate Stage and would take place in the final few weeks of the campaign. After initially rejecting a second debate with harris following his September 10 showdown with her in philadelphia, less quick, trumps suggesting he might be open to another debate saying im quoting him. Maybe if i got in the Right mood and quote the Cnn Debate would mirror the June Debate between Biden And Trump with a similar format in which trump and this time harris would field moderators questions for 90 minutes without a live studio audience. And it would take place at the networks studios in atlanta. Weve got a team of correspondents and analyst
In both in both georgia and nevada. Trump, meanwhile, leads by a single point in the bout appeared all of those results are within the margin of error, but the trendlines favor harris. It previous fox polls, conducted by president Joe Biden exited the 2024 race about six weeks ago, trump led by five points, in arizona, nevada, North Carolina and by six points in georgia, and we can hold the graph above the screen there for one more. And yes, the race is close, but when President Biden dropped out it reshaped the race. Not only does harris have omentum, but suddenly her path to 270 Electoral College Votes have really opened up. Well, and then you also looked at the down Ballot Races, and i was just, frankly shocked, by the Arizona Senate within this poll and how Ruben Gallego is just running away beyond the margin of error, with the Arizona Senate race, and yes, it is kerry lake she is up against, she is a drag on the Ticket Up in arizona. It is like 15 points. It is a big lead in a pla
i believe it s a choice. a leader does not use polls to tell them what to do. if hunter were a republican, he would have been in jail long ago. our great american comeback starts by sending joe biden back to his basement in delaware. [cheers] jesse: now, if you want any kind of national traction you can t be boring. and have you got to feed juicy soundbites to the media machine. no one is be at that than donald trump. desantis is creating friction with the establishment. toy sized muse laney ron desantis manifesto vowing to destroy leftism and wokeism. not even trump is dumb enough to go after the most popular entertainment provider. i thought desantis was supposed be the non-fascist alternative to trump. i guess not. he is trying to be a carbon copy of donald trump in that his campaign and his candidacy is based on grievance politics, divisiveness, and extreme policies. i say this with conviction. i think ron desantis is far more dangerous than donald trump. je
got to be some sort of video component to this. i guess a part of the drama of the announcement, no one knows what this thing is going to look like or sound like. we will be interviewing ron desantis and he quite an announcement to make. it will be the first time that something like this is happening on social media and with real time questions and answers. not scripted. jesse: not scripted. okay. this is obviously a nontraditional way to announce. usually candidates have a big rally with a huge crowd behind them holding up signs, clapping. you capture the raw energy of supporters live and then it s distributed everywhere. it s possible desantis didn t want to compete with the trump rally phenomenon. you don t want to get into a crowd measuring contest with the former president. trump also isn t on twitter he is on his own social media deal truth social so that could be a factor here. we are wondering how the event is going to be editing and distributed throughout the med
good to be with you. i m katy tur. we ve never seen anything like this before in key places across the country, interest in the election is so intense that millions have showed up to vote early. shattering turnout records, especially in the midterm year. who does that help? and is all of that enthusiasm reflected in the polls? we re going to explore that in just a moment. along with the concerning rise in threats at polling places, axios is reporting local mayors and police chiefs are being warned that extremists like the proud boys and the oath keepers are signing up as poll workers and drop box monitors, as part of localized efforts to intimidate voters. again, we will get to all of that in a moment. but first, if you were not already convinced by the campaign ads, or the mailers, or the emails, or the texts, last night s debates gave voters, you potentially, a lot to chew over. candidates in close races, in pennsylvania, michigan, and new york, faced off, first up in penns
