in gummies find it at walmart >> i'm elizabeth wagmeister in los angeles in this >> is cnn closed captioning brought to you by mesobook.com >> mesothelial mom, it's all we do with local offices throughout the country. and his hope you get the compensation you deserve, 800 to eight to 44, 44 this is cnn breaking news. >> thanks so much for joining us on cnn news central this afternoon. i'm boris sanchez alongside brianna keilar in washington, and we start with breaking news from the nation's capital independent senator kyrsten sinema of arizona, announcing she will not run for reelection. a decision that could pave the way for a republican successor, something that would dramatically shift the makeup of the us center. yeah, >> let's get straight now to cnn, chief congressional correspondent manu raju, who is on capitol hill. manu tell us what sinema said about her decision? >> well, she really laments the state of politics. sinema has been a key player during the biden administration, was key to let legislation that has become law such as infrastructure law is all the chips and science act codifying same-sex marriage also tried to push forward a bipartisan border security deal that republicans blocked earlier this year, but he's also been someone who's been faced relentless criticism, mostly from the left flank because of her defense of the senate's filibuster efforts to try to weaken that filibuster rule to allow legislation to pass along a simple majority in the last congress, she rejected that. and joe manchin and the like prevented that from essentially being changed as a result, she's faced a lot of pushback. she also decided become an independent and caucus with democrats and she weighed whether to run for reelection is independent, but announcing just moments ago, it was time for her to step aside from the senate because of what she said is because of her concerns. but the state of our politics. listen. >> we've arrived at that crossroad and we chose anger and division i believe in my approach but it's not what america wants right now >> i >> love arizona and i am so proud of what we've delivered because i choose stability, understanding, listening, working together to get stuff done i believe the senate at the end of this year >> but this is going to have major ramifications for control of the united states senate. she had weighed that third-party bid in a race for to keep this seat. right now, reuben gallego, who's a progressive democrat, is running in the democratic primary hey kari lake, a conservative republican running in the republican primary if she were to run, it was unclear how that would impact things. once i believe you can help the other side and i just talked to senator steve daines, the senate gop campaign chairman, who believes that there's actually bolster kari lake's chances of concerns being that cinema could have siphoned away some moderate republican vote who might not have been willing to support kari lake. of course, the democrats see at the opposite side, but nevertheless, arizona is going to be one of the most significant races to watch this november, something that could determine control of the united states senate and will have huge huge ramifications for the next president, whether it's joe biden or donald trump. so this moment significant for the senate, for the makeup of the chamber, that deal-making that happens in this body, but also for who controls it. come november guys. >> yeah. all right. manu. thank you for that. >> another big headline this afternoon, if you haven't heard, it's super tuesday today, over 2000 delegates are at stake across two parties 16 states and one us territory. all those numbers could very well add up to a rematch that polls show most americans don't even want president joe biden against former president donald trump. >> and you keep acknowledging american samoa. and i'm so glad that you do for that. they shouldn't be. all right. so today, former president trump, hoping to end nikki haley's underdog campaign for good with a super tuesday sweep. and president biden as the incumbent expecting to coast to the democratic nomination, even as headwinds on immigration the israel hamas war, and inflation threatened to dismantle his 2020 coalition. we're covering this across the board. the only way that cnn can let's start with the john berman in colorado for us, are a berman. so the supreme court reinstating trump's eligibility for the colorado primary yesterday. what are voters saying? well, >> first of all, i can confirm that in fact it is super tuesday. you are 100% right? about that, brianna, and this is castle rock, colorado, and this is an in-person voting location. i'm stressing that because it's one of 150 places you can vote in-person today. and there has been a slow but steady trickle of people why not that many? because most people in this state vote in drop boxes or by mail, you can actually vote in a dropbox here today, you can show up with your ballot already filled in and put it in that box right there, then walk out and go about your business. you're in beautiful, colorado. if you do want to vote here today, you get your ballot over there. you fill it in and you put it in that box. separately, right there. now, brianna, i can show you here. we have them sample ballots you mentioned donald trump, the supreme court ruling word supreme court said that that states can't bar trump from being on the ballot for being an insurrectionist. you can see his name is on the ballot right there. it would have been on the ballot anyway, it has been on the ballot because of a stay in the earlier court ruling, but the supreme court just it's clarified that on the democratic side, one thing i want to point out, you can see in the small print at the bottom, non-committed delegates in michigan uncommitted votes became a little bit of an issue. there doesn't seem to be the level of campaign here for uncommitted voters. but if that number does get above 15%, they would have delegates at the democratic convention. we we have seen voters here. we did have a chance to talk to a few of them more than 100 feet away from the doors here. that's the rules. listen to what they said about why they were here what's the most important issue to you? >> immigration >> immigration, yeah. how so? >> i think that we need to secure the borders and make sure that everything is handled appropriately the people that come in the country, we help them, but then it's also done in the rightly, who's the best candidate to handle that? do you think i pick trump >> and who would you pick? >> i voted for trump. >> so you voted in the democratic primary today >> why >> i think i think it's all about democracy this year. >> and who would you vote for? >> joe biden? >> so you can see brianna the competing views of this campaign from the voters who are showing up here to cast their in-person ballots. nearly 1 million people i should say, have already voted here in colorado. brianna and zhanna in your conversations with voters, did this supreme court decision come up in any way? >> i did speak to one voter who said the number of court cases involving donald trump has motivated her to vote for donald trump's. so for voters, i think inclined to vote for trump already, it is a motivating factor that pushes them to support him, perhaps even more, boris interesting tidbit there. john berman live from castle rock, colorado. thanks so much, john. let's take you out of virginia and cnn's jessica dean, and there's a fierce battle for the suburbs of virginia. jessica, what are you hearing from voters? >> well, whereas we are in the suburbs of richmond, so this is the type of place in the type of voters that especially in a general election and a very purple state like virginia, are going to make a huge difference. and so we are outside this polling location, which is at an elementary school that's the law here in virginia. we can't be inside and were appropriately away from the doorbell we did talk to one voter earlier, our colleague, alayna treene caught up with this voter. he called himself a recovering republican, who did not vote for trump, but did vote for nikki haley this time. here's what he said. >> if it ends up being trump versus biden rematch duda, who you'd vote for >> hold my nose and vote for biden again? >> objections >> to moral and political objections grand rounds campaign office in some of the choices he's made just wrong for our country >> and boris and brianna, we did see voting not too long ago in those off-year elections here in virginia back in november where we saw democrats take both chambers here in the state of virginia, and abortion was one of the key issues. so it's places like this that we are really interested to see what voters are saying, what's on their mind. we'll keep talking to them throughout the day. >> all right. and they are going to speak and speak loudly as they vote today, jessica, thank you for that. or you heard from some voters. now let's see what the candidates in the campaigns are saying. we have kristen holmes and palm beach, he's fallen following all things trump. we have kylie atwood in charleston, south carolina, where nikki haley is spending super tuesday. kristin to you first, how does the trump campaign expect things to play out today? >> well, brianna, look, they know that he's not going to become the nominee tonight. he's not going to meet that delegate threshold, but the hope is twofold. the first part of this that they hope that he gets enough delegates so that he can meet, reach that milestone next week, that he will become the presumptive nominee. then the other thing that they're hoping for is that there's definitive enough win tonight that it essentially forces nikki haley out of the race. now, they are keenly aware that haley has said has not said what she would do after super tuesday, but they are not banking on her dropping out. they've already pivoted to a general election. something interesting. we just heard from just talking about those suburban voters in virginia all of this information that is coming out of super tuesday is information that donald trump's campaign is going to take into a general election, who is showing up to vote? where are people voting? what isn't doozy asm looked like within the republican party? they are going to be compiling all of this data as they try to figure out where they want to put their resources heading into the november 1 thing. i keep hearing from these senior advisers. they believe that every state or at least most states are in play and they know that every single vote is going to count in this potential rematch with joe biden kristen. >> thanks so much. let's pivot to kylie now and get some perspective from haley world tightly it speaks volumes that nikki haley isn't out on the campaign trail today. >> nikki haley said that she wanted to be at home. she wanted to be monitoring more than dozen states that are voting here in south carolina she was in texas yesterday, and we should note that her campaign in fort worth was her final scheduled campaign rally. as she has said, that she is solely focused it's two on super tuesday right now, people have asked what's next for her if she's going to compete on march 12th, that she's going to take it to the convention to make it a brokered convention, a competitive convention. she has said it all rests on what happens on super tuesday. so that is significant. she was asked earlier today on fox news if she would drop out, if she doesn't have a successful night tonight. i want you to listen to how she responded to that. i also want you to take a listen in terms of how she described her voters. she was very defensive of them, very protected objective of listen >> i don't know why everybody so adamant that they have to follow trump's lead to get me out of this race. you know, all of these people deserve to vote 16 states want to have their voices heard. they don't want to be ignored, they don't want to be just said that's nothing. they're actually quite something and they want something different in our country and i respect them tremendously for that now, in the last few days, nikki haley has actually given a number of >> reasons for why she doesn't believe she is bound any longer to her pledge that she made last year to back the eventual nominee of the republican party. so that is a space for us to watch. but of course we'll see what happens night as her campaign is hoping for at least the victory or two on this super tuesday >> kylie atwood. thanks so much for the update >> and still to come, we have our special coverage of super tuesday continuing. we're going to dip in on these polling places in colorado, texas. we're going to california, we're going to see what is driving turnout in those states. >> it's not just the presidential race that's got people fired up or taking a look at some of those key down-ballot primaries happening today. those stories and much more still ahead on cnn

bring to you like cnn and the best political team in the business, suit tuesday, special coverage begins tonight at 06:00 p.m. on cnn and streaming on max. >> talk about on this super tuesday, including a surprising headline we got today out of capitol hill. >> yeah, that's right. independent senator kyrsten sinema saying that she's out at the end of the year. she's done she's not going to seek reelection so let's talk about everything with our panel of political experts. and it's really interesting you guys, when you look at the explanation that she gave here, she said, because i choose civility, understanding, listening, working together to get stuff done, i will leave the senate at the end of this year. >> well, that sounds a lot nicer then because i have no path to where >> yeah, that's that >> that's just not as pretty to say. listen, i saw former senator jeff flake during the summer where he served as ambassador of turkey. and we were talking about this race somewhat >> and >> he is somebody that how to face the same reality of not having a path >> and >> there's just not a pathway, an independent in arizona right now, and certainly not for kyrsten sinema how much of it just has to do with the politics of the moment, because she was one of the architects of this bipartisan senate deal to try to bring aid to >> ukraine and to address issues at the border. and it may be that some of that failure aside from the political reality and area zona discouraged her. >> yeah. and also look, the democratic party, myself included, has that goodbye. good riddance it to her because she did stall some key pieces of the bipartisan legislation that we have champion over these last few years. but some of those, you know, i think we've talked about it before. that of a ego as we're talking about, she doesn't have a path forward. where does she go afterwards? and i think this helps arizona democratic party and republican party figure out their paths for their nominees. in order to hopefully one of them wants to get one of these seats, then what kind of base might have said goodbye to her, but she was important in keeping chuck schumer where he is. >> she's not partially not just a mitt romney is not right? serve it enough to be nominated in his state. she's not far-left enough. the democratic party has moved so far left that kyrsten sinema, who came from the left part of the democratic party, which she went to the house. she no longer has home. >> and if you take her at her word that the reason why she's leaving is not necessarily just because she's in third place, but because being in the senate is not the most fun place to be these days, or the place where you can actually get a ton done and you're seeing all sorts of retirements from folks in the political center. the pragmatic types who are looking at the environment, washington and saying, i don't think i can actually do anything positive here. >> in >> elected office, so i don't think this is the last of the big retirements that we may see over the company? yeah. that's your right. and the reality may be that to sort of be there in the senator me, in the senate, in the center, in the senate, or anywhere means you are going to be in third place so maybe that's also a message which i think we can agree on here. what does that mean then kristin, about what congress is going to look like and sound like and legislate like when you have all those people leaving well, certainly it's going to mean that you have a lot less experience. and for many voters right now, that's actually a positive. they think there needs to be more turnover. they want to see fresh voices, fresh faces but with that said there is some benefit to having it institutional knowledge in these chambers and helps to get things done. so if you're a voter who on the one hand thinks there's too many people there that have been too long. we need fresh faces, but are also why isn't congress getting anything done? there is some contradiction there to those two things when push comes to the biggest change, we're going to see is the absence of mitch mcconnell as republican leader kyrsten sinema has been a thorn in the side of the democratic base for a long, long time, really irritates them. but she's also been key to help craft these bipartisan deals. many of which have ended up being legislation passed by joe biden, signed by joe biden. so she's kind of like in that mavericky mavericky model of arizona. and i think this is very good for ruben gallego. ruben gallego is a former marine he is hispanic very smart, very likable, and he's going to be running against kari lake, who i think many, many republicans who would have voted for john mccain or for jeff flake are going to find too extreme. >> let's pivot to the voting that's happening today. and super tuesday, brad, before we came on, you were walking us through where on the map today nikki haley has the best chance of winning some delegates. what do you think the minimum she has to accomplish tonight is to keep her campaign going? >> well, frankly, we won't know till the morning when the contributions come in. presidential candidates never quit because of politics. they quit because fundraising dries up and so if if she feels like she's still raising enough money and in this day and age, that means money over the internet, it comes in and small and moderate donations. it happens instantaneously reacting to lose. i think that's the question. the question is not one delegate, she wins tonight and she could win some chicken with some in northern virginia. i think vermont's an opportunity. i think utah is an opportunity for minnesota might be an opportunity so she could win a few delegates, but i think it really, the question will be to she believed her donors will be there tomorrow. >> where would nikki haley voters go? >> do you think well, that's a question then i have that i've had at the beginning of this primary season is that she's trying to appeal to the never trump republicans, the republicans who are tired of donald trump. but then what happens in the general, we know that a third party race would unfortunately a third-party candidate would unfortunately hand over the election to donald trump. so do they go over to joe biden, like the voter we saw in the bloc before, who said he would hold his nose and go vote for joe biden are some of her supporters going to go to joe biden and are some prominent voices that don't i believe in donald trump, the republican party, are they going to hold their nose and vote for president biden? >> i think there are two types of voters who have been going for nikki haley in these primaries. the first star self-identified republicans who really just wish donald trump was not the direction their party was going, but at the end of the day, i think in general are probably going to come home and vote republican. they will hold their nose and they will vote for donald trump. that's most of the self aidid republicans. >> but you've had in >> places like new hampshire and in south carolina, a lot of disaffected democrats, some independents participating, they hate that they think their choices might be biden and trump, and they wanted to do whatever they could to not have to face that choice. they said november. >> those voters, i can see a sizable number of >> them actually winding up a goal of republicans have a habit and tradition of coming home and lining up behind the nominee but we are seeing very strong voices, voices like mitt romney saying, hell, no. what was, what he doesn't say? now he doesn't cost. that's me, man >> voices like liz cheney saying, there's no way that we're going to vote for romney for trump. so let us see what happens as we get closer. >> i >> think i think i think there's gonna be some of both. i think a lot of them are going to come home but i think there's going to be a significant number, maybe just enough that don't vote for trump, especially in those biden trump districts that helped keep that republican majority very slim in the midterms, i think in those areas we will see some of this. >> i think donald trump's interests just actually for nikki able to stay in the rice all the way through because i think there are people who have misgivings about him. the republican party's 2020, 5%. i think if they have the chance to vote against him in the primary much easier for him to bring them home in the general, i know it's a little counterintuitive, but i think when you are a primary candidate who has a section, it's unhappy. you need to let the horses run a little bit. and so i think he >> of you are not supporting me and you're supporting her. get out of the party. >> i think again, the election in the end will not end up being about donald while trump's rhetoric is going to be in about joe biden's record. and i think that trump's best hope is for him to be able to put that focus back on joe biden and be able to welcome people back after they voted for for somebody else. >> i i constantly trump wish that during these panels we had more time. unfortunately, we got to leave it there. brad, on a kristen alencia. thank you all so much. so 16 states are voting today on super tuesday, but north carolina is the only real swing state among

national correspondent dianne gallagher is talking to north carolina voters in the city of cornelius. dianne, turnout has been fairly steady, where you are, what are you hearing from voters? >> turnout is quite steady. hearing cornelius, you can probably see a little bit behind that we're having a bit of a line that's starting to develop your outside of town hall now, north carolina election rules prevent me from getting any closer to these voters here, but we've started to see this build throughout the afternoon and voters themselves are enthusiastic dick, when they show up telling me that they are passionate about the people that they are choosing to vote for. and they especially enjoy the idea that north carolina may have a deciding factor in the national vote come november when it comes to the president, but they're also looking again at those down ballot races. now, in terms of the issues i can say, especially this afternoon, i've had many voters talked to me about abortion and immigration, adding an education and the economy here as well. i spoke with a biden voter and a trump voter about why they made the decision they did with their ballot today? >> trump. >> why? >> i like his policies. i have like a morning it was an office. >> it works for me >> his values are very in line with ours we. are? nowhere in a better place than we were four years ago >> so again, the

states across the country, us officials tell cnn that they're not seeing any specific or credible threats >> to super tuesdays elections. the biden administration is working with states to closely monitor both cyber and physical threats to the voting process. let's discuss now with chris krebs, he's a former senior official at the department of homeland security. he also served as the first director of the cybersecurity and infrastructure security agency during the trump administration. chris, thanks so much for being with us this afternoon. you say there are three types of threats that officials monitor on super tuesday. what are they? okay >> yeah. i think first and foremost, dating back to 2016, there's a heightened concern around cybersecurity threats, technical attacks on critical infrastructure. >> the >> good news is the intelligence community and those in the cybersecurity space he had not really seen any sort of russian or chinese activity that would be able to interfere with the casting counting and the certification of the voting process. >> the >> second risk or threat that we are gravely concerned about is the continued disinformation information operations that russia china, iran, and others have been waging against the us population. and europeans as well over the last several years. and even as recently as a couple of weeks ago, researchers at sent labs talked about a doppelganger group out of russia that was undermining confidence in, in german policy politics, specifically trying to undermine support group that the conflict in ukraine, that same group of operators has been here are the us highlighting issues down at the border and even trying to stoke civil war. and then the third and final risk were concerned about his physical threats, actual directed threats against election officials. the best example here is steven richard down america county, arizona tweeted out the other day that he had had six different individuals from across the country that had made threats to steven or election officials in maricopa had been arrested for those threats against those officials. so those are the three things i think folks are trying to keep in mind right now. >> yeah a broad range of threats and risk in december of last year, there was this declassified intelligence assessment that found at foreign government efforts to target the 2022 midterm elections apparently grew compared with the 2018 midterms. and you mentioned some of the countries that were aiming to metal i'm wondering what you're seeing now as we get closer to the 2024 general election well, that intelligence report is required as a result of an executive order that president trump issued prior to the >> 2018 election, where we were the intelligence community and society fbi have to go out and looks at what attempts were there made to your interfere, influence us politics around in an election? when you think about the election cycles in a midterm election, vice presidential year, you're always going to have more activity in a presidential year because the stakes are much larger, there is more attention to these races then those midterm congressional races. my sense though is that the playbook that has been established since 2016 has been copied just like in 2020, we saw the iranians try to imitate the proud boys and intimidate voters that is now i think going to be pretty much the standard operating procedure for most states security services that want to interfere in us olympic but i think the good news is today is just it's kinda like what i said in 2020 where it's just another tuesday on the internet, >> and there hasn't been a whole lot of activity that i think would be concerning in terms of threats against the election. >> and glad to hear that at least thus far it's going to absolutely. and it looks notably chris krebs appreciate the perspective. thanks so much >> thanks, boris. >> of course, brianna >> this just into cnn, we have some new reporting on paul whelan, the former marine and american detained in russia for more than five years now, he's now speaking out exclusively to cnn. he's sharing his concerns surrounding his detention following the death of russian opposition leader alexey navalny. cnn's jennifer hansler has more on this. jennifer, what is he saying? >> well, brianna, he says it is extremely worrying for him that navalny passed under suspicious circumstances in a russian prison saying that this signals that the russians could be willing to do that to just about anybody take a look listen to what he had to say about this incident >> you can't say too much for obvious reasons, but one thing i will say is that if they can get to him or you can get to me and what that means is if they are willing to face the repercussions comes from the world for doing in somebody like navalny, they are not going to think twice about doing in someone like me and then blaming the united states for not both get me back in five years >> so he again calling on biden administration to do whatever they can to secure his release after spending more than five years in russian prison, he says he is confident that there is work being done on his behalf after he spoke with secretary of state, antony blinken last month, he called that a very, very good call. i should also note, brianna, that today is his 54th birthday. he called me saying that it is extremely odd to be spending his birthday in a russian prison. but he said he was able to do some kinds of little celebrations with some of his prison mates there. and he said, it made life almost bearable for a little while. they're secretary of state antony blinken last week, last month? rather said that the us is still working to do whatever they can to bring both him and evan gershkovich home. >> brianna, let's hope this is his last birthday behind bars there. jennifer hansler. thank you for that report.

at 804618800, or visit coventrydirect.com rafael romo at the georgia state capitol in atlanta this is cnn >> breaking news into cnn new jersey senator bob menendez was just indicted on a dozen new criminal charges. let's bring in cnn's kara scannell. kara, walk us through these new charges hey, boris, a dozen new charges in this indictment against senator bob menendez that was handed up today by a grand jury. this is all part of the same bribery scheme that prosecutors alleged the senator was involved with along with his wife and three new jersey businessmen, they were accused of accepting hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes in the form of gold bars ours cash a mercedes convertible, a lower no-show job and an exchange took menendez is accused of taking steps to help those new jersey businessman as well as the governments of egypt and qatar. among these new charges are what's called some of these substantive charges. he was charged with four counts of conspiracy before that was acting as a foreign agent that was committing honest services wire fraud. now he's being hit with the underlying counts that go along with those charges, as well as new counts of conspiracy to obstruct justice and obstruction of justice. so he's facing now 12 new charges on top of the ones that he's already had so significant increase in his liability here is potential liability in this case. now, the senator has denied any wrongdoing vigorously. he's refused calls to step down as senator. he has challenged the us government, the prosecutors, on his loyalty to the us saying that he would never act as a foreign agents. so he has been putting on a strong defense here. he had been trying to get the fruits of some of these search warrants of his home in new jersey, washington, dc, of a cell phones to be suppressed. but a judge this week denied that request, saying that all of the evidence that was picked up, including the gold bars, the cash that's all for the government to use >> in its case. now, these new charges because it's worth noting, comes just days after one of the new jersey businessmen in this case pleaded guilty and has a cooperation deal with prosecutors. now the prosecutors have one of the people that they say is part of this bribery scheme working with them that may be why we're seeing these new charges against menendez today. and i've reached out to menendez's camp, haven't heard back yet. but again, he has vigorously denied any wrongdoing and has pleaded not guilty to the previous charges, for us. >> kara scannell, an important update in that case. thanks so much. briana >> in california, we've seen an intense and often bruising campaign in the race to fill the late senator dianne feinstein's seat under the state's primary system, all candidates run on the same i'll let and regardless of party, the top two vote getters advance congressman adam schiff has been the front-runner in recent polls, but fellow democratic congresswoman katie porter and barbara lee are also in the mix as well as republican and former la dodgers star steve garvey cnn stephanie elam is joining us now from a polling station in santa ana in southern california. there. what are you hearing from voters? their stuff >> brianna, we have seen a slow, steady, trickle of people coming here to vote in santa ana, just making their way in here casting their vote. we've heard some people wanted to vote in-person because they wanted to make sure that they felt like their vote was being counted. but a lot of people have voted by mail already are dropping off their ballot. we've seen people coming in dropping off their ballot as well. that's been going on for a few weeks here as well. so it is definitely don't see as many, but they did set up these tents out here so that people could vote out here if there was an overflow as the day goes on. but you're right, that senate race is really what a lot of people are focusing on here we have seen adam schiff has raised the most money his war chest as far as the amount of money he has is larger than everyone else. and what he's been doing is really targeting republican steve garvey, who has not spent any money on ads. meanwhile, in this election, there has been more than $71 million spent on advertising for just this. and since february, that number is larger than even how much has been spent on ads in the presidential election. so it's very constantly quenches here. but we are seeing schiff targeting garvey because he's thinking it would be better odds for him to be going up against a republican in november instead of another one of the democrats since they would have to battle for basically the same in a voting bloc so what he's been doing is raising his profile and it seems to be working. we have seen the numbers rising for garvey in this election. the idea is california. the democrats here outnumber republicans two to one. so he's thinking if he's up against a republican it'll make it more likely that he will win in november here. but obviously very consequential as are going after this one seat, this one senate seat, very important senate seat here in california, brianna and when people are voting for the senate seat, they're voting twice for it. explain this >> they are there are two opportunities to vote for senator on the ballot. that's because one is to finish out. dianne feinstein's term for the rest of the year. and then there's another one for the full six-year term beginning in january. so people could decide that they want to vote for barbara lee for the first part of it, and then they want to vote for steve garvey for the second part for the whole six-year term, they can totally do that. we'll see how that all shakes out. >> and people >> decide to do two different things here. but yes, there's a chance for two of those opportunities to fill senator for short-term. and then again for the long term all right. >> we'll see how it shakes out. stephanie elam live for us in california. thank you for that. so not all get out the vote calls are created equal ahead, one that could get more young voters out what happened to the golden boy

her more than 282 million followers to cast ballots and their states primaries today. >> remember swift endorsed president joe biden back in 2020 and recently for right figures have promoted baseless conspiracy theories, claiming that the singer's involved in a covert effort to help biden win reelection. all the dots connect, but swift stopped short of endorsing anyone, simply telling her followers christie quote, vote the people who most represent you and to power. >> so if you're wondering how swift herself voted considering she's currently on world tour in singapore. well, welcome to 2024, because a source tells cnn that she voted by mail in tennessee's primary and boris, i mean, she's really kind of a forced to be recognized with here because on national voter registration de, on her instagram, she told people to go to vote.org and the group actually said that they had a surge of 35,000 registrations. >> i think that's part of the reason you see those conspiracy theories. it's clearly assignment. there are scared of someone with that kind of platform not even telling voters who to vote for, but just persuading them to take action and cast ballots. >> yeah. she's very influential >> she is. thank you so much for being with us this afternoon. our special coverage of america's choice 2024, super tuesday with wolf blitzer i'm kate bolduan starts in just about 15
