Good evening, welcome to politics nation. Tonight leaves no margin for error. Right now, new polling from Nbc News shows Vice President Kamala Harris with her biggest national lead yet over Donald Trump. With 49 of voters saying they would elect her today compared to 44 supporting trump. Still, within the margin of error. Less than two months Vice President harris has enjoyed the biggest Favorability Boost for any politician in nearly a quarter of a century. Voters say they prefer to have harris in terms of her mental and physical fitness, temperment temperament. They are still with trump on inflation and the economy. Despite the national numbers republicans still hold advantages within the electoral college. The events of the next 44 days will determine the outcome of the election. With another debate looking unlikely at the moment it remains unclear what Issue Or Event will be the deciding factor in this race. Joining me now, Michael Tyler for the Harris Walz campaign. Thank you for being with us tonight, starting off with this new polling from Nbc Today Harris is leading 49 to his 44 within the margin of error. It shows Harris Favorability jumped 16 . The largest increase in Nbc News polling since president george w. Bush after september 11. The poll also finds support for trump from moderate republican voters who ultimately came pack to him in 2016 and 2020. What is your take on the numbers and the state of the campaign right now. Reporter yes. Thank you for having me tonight, rev. You referenced it yourself, this race remains in the margin of error, right. We are taking nothing for granted in this campaign that is why you have seen the Vice President crisscross across the Battleground States last week alone in states like georgia, wisconsin, making the case against the voters deciding this election. For us, margin of error comes down to margin of effort. We will use every tool in our disposal between now and the election to reach all of the voters. We will have, continue to have big moments like we had September 10th like the first debate. We will have a second one. Donald trump steps up to the plate and accepts it on september 23rd. Between now and then we will make sure the voters will see harris and the favorability that you spoke to. The more The American voters learn about harris the more they like her. The same can not be said against the person we are running against, trump. We have to leave our foot on the gas and no stone untouched. Former President Trump said yesterday it is too late for another debate. Shortly after your team accepted an invite from cnn on october 23rd. Trump is ducking the debate even though he claims to have won the previous match up with Vice President harris. Is the Harris Campaign going to keep pressing the issue . And if so, how do you go about it . Reporter yes, he did claim he won it, not the first time he refused to admit defeat. If he won the previous debates he should have no problem accepting it on the 23rd. With cnn, same Studio And Format and claims to won in june. So, we expect him to show up f. He shows up or not, we will use every opportunity to make sure the voters understand the choices in this election f. They do not see it on the Debate Stage we will make sure they will see that they have harris, someone willing to stand up for fundamental rights and freedoms and in the opposite you have Donald Trump, right . You see it play out this week, right . In states like georgia, you have thurman, the first death due to Abortion Bans in this country. The stakes continue to rise for The American people as they tune in towards this election. So, we hope to be able to make a case directly on the Debate Stage. We will make it every single day between now and Election Day if trump decides to man up and show up at the debate. While we are talking debate, if was when trump said haitian immigrants in ohio were eating cats and dogs, the city has been in turmoil ever since, facing Bomb Threats and school closures, trump says he will visit springfield within two weeks which the city republican mayor does not want citing security risk. Will the Vice President go to springfield and if not, why not . Listen. I can not reiterate it to what the Vice President said earlier this week when she sat down with journalists and spoke to this topic. What you are seeing with trump, sadly, what The American people come to expect. This is somebody who traffics and tropes and traffics in hatred and division. In chaos, does not matter if it is true or not. His own runningmate, j. D. Vance says they are willing to lie and advance their political aim. That is no more evident than in the case of springfield. What the Vice President says as leaders our words and actions have consequences and you see it playing out in springfield. People are dealing with Bomb Threats and people are scared to send their kids to school. A community feels as they they have a target on their back because of what people like trump are saying and people he surrounding himself with and putting it in his head. Our Message Message to people, it does not have to be like this. You have in Vice President harris, governor walz, leaders that know we are at our best not what we are tearing people down but lifting each other up. That is what we have the opportunity to do. Turn the page on trumps toxic brand of politics and restore a sense of decency and leaders that want to bring us together In Search Of The solutions that can actually solve the problems that we face here. That is what harris and The American people think. Politico thinks the Harris Campaign sees an opening in North Carolina, controversy is going around. Over comments that he made on Adult Website several years ago. Absent from trumps North Carolina rally. Trump did not mention his name. He was standing by his endorsement of him. Harris Campaign Advisories are reportedly seizing on that relationship. But, not robinsons current controversy to voters in metro areas and black voters what can you tell us about the strategy . Yes, listen, you mentioned some of the comments that Mark Robinson had made. The comments that we are far more concerned with and the comments that the voters in North Carolina are concerned with, are the comments making it around abortion, they are disgusting, and demonstrate that he has no business governing in telling woman what they should do with their bodies, Radioit Isnt Something that he shares with Donald Trump, they campaigned with him, stood shoulder to shoulder with him, modern day mlk, that is what the Ticket Looks like on the republican side right now. We are going to make sure that the voters understand that in the Tar Heel State and that they, again, do not have to accept that as their reality. You have with Harris And Walz two candidates running to improve the lives of people in North Carolina. Who are running to get rid of Donald Trumps Abortion Bans in states like North Carolina and across the country. Now live in a Country 1of 3 women live under one of Trumps Abortion bans, running to change that. Our strategy is making sure that the voters in the state of North Carolina understand the stakes and our strategy at large is that we look towards the pathway to 270 electoral votes, making sure we leave no stone untouched. Campaigning aggressively in North Carolina and georgia and we are going to make sure that we shore up the blue wall in michigan, pennsylvania, and wisconsin. Traveling out west to nevada and arizona. Our pathway remains wide open and we make sure that we seize on every opportunity. North carolina will be key to the effort and running ads about the close personal relationship that we have. Making sure that people understand that. And i might add that some of the statements that he, that robinson made about women and others were not years ago on the website. These are recent statements and Donald Trump endorsed him calling him Martin Luther King 2. 0. Or the third, my dear friend has attacked him for that. Thank you, Michael Tyler, Communication Director for the Harris Walz, 2024 campaign. Joining me now is anderson clayton. Chair of the North Carolina democratic party. Anderson, i want to pick up where i picked off with Michael Ler and ask you about the new revelations about North Carolina Gop Nominee for Governor Mark Robinson who is accused of making lewd and racist comments on a pornographic site years ago. He denies these allegations and says he has no intention of dropping out of the race. What is your reaction to that story . We fully know who Mark Robinson is in this state. Unfit to hold the office when you are looking at someone Josh Stein who is running for governor democratic ticket in the state of North Carolina. We know that no republican right now in the state of North Carolina has offered to take back their endorsement or to not accept Mark Robinsons endorsement, the party is standing behind him and everything he stands for coming out of national news now, former president Donald Trump was in your state yesterday. No sign of robinson at the rally and his name was not even mentioned. Trumps runningmate j. D. Vance this to say about robinsons alleged post. Do you believe that those were not his post . I dont not believe him. I dont believe him. I think you have to let them play out in the court of public opinion. Advances not rushing to judgment On Robinson who has a long Controversy History on comments. But has not given haitian immigrants the benefit of the doubt. Reporter No Doubt that j. D. Vance wants to double down and back him up. They are cut from the same cloth. Every republican running down the ballot is a Rubber Stamp on the extreme agenda we are seeing across this country. This is not the republican party that people once knew in the united states. What we are seeing is a party of like the fundamentally stripping rights away from americans, that is not what we know the republican once was in this country. And that is why you saw folks on the Dnc Stage say voting for harris does not make you a democrat, it makes someone that is protecting this country and what it was founded on. We see people across North Carolina making sure they are getting out to vote for democrats up and down the ballot who will represent fundamental freedoms across North Carolina. Robinson was already traveling badly against Josh Stein the democratic candidate for governor. How do you see this changing about robinson . What should harristeam saying to them . Reporter they are making sure they are doing it. Showing then up and down the ticket. Trump said he would like to leave Abortion Rights up to the states, great, that means you endorsed then Mark Robinson Abortion Ban that he would like to see in North Carolina and said he would enact if he is governor next year along with the ban that the State Legislature enacted in 2023 this last year. North carolina sits on a republican Super Majority in both State House and State Senate by only 1 seat in both chambers right now. We have the opportunity to take Back Power in North Carolina this year if we just make sure democrats vote down the ballot and up at the top of the ticket as well. Before i let you know, you are the youngest State Party Chair in the united states. You are just 26 years old. So, i must ask you, how do you see the future for the new North Carolina . Could you see it becoming a new Battleground State in the south . Or even a democratic Leaning State like your neighbors in virginia . Reporter we are working hard to make sure North Carolina is the beacon of the south again and that looks like representing the democratic legacy that was once here and electing people like Jordan Lopez who will be one of our youngest State Representatives going into the general assembly. People pitman running out of wilson. We have so many young diverse candidates running up ask down the ballot this year in North Carolina. So, folks want to look to who their representatives could be, make sure you go to the website and find out who is on the ballot. It is a new south in North Carolina. Anderson clayton, chair of the democratic North Carolina party, thank you for being with us.

New Nbc Polling shows voters overwhelmingly trust Vice President harris on Abortion Rights. 54 of respondents say they trust her 64 compared to trump, 33 .

Where you been when it comes to taking care of the women and the children of america . Where you been . How dare they. How dare they. Vice president harris was in georgia right after they released the report of the death of Two Georgia Women who died after not being able to access medical care. They deemed these deaths preventible. Joining me now is jessica makila. President of Emilys List. Electing prochoice women. Thank you for joining me today, jessica, almost a year ago Emilys List put out a statement criticizing the Georgia State supreme court for allowing the states Abortion Ban to go into effect. What is your reaction to these reports of women allegedly dying as a result of these policies . Reporter well, the reality is that the stakes around reproductive freedom in this country are life and death. And these tragic and preventible deaths only further underscore that. Two women, Amber And Candy should be alive right now. They are not alive because they did not have access to avenue medical care that every person should have access to. That is what we are seeing, the stakes around this issue could not be more clear. And, we know that the only way out of this mess, the only way out of the crisis that we are living with right now is to secure power. That is by electing democratic promajorities. Reporter the Gop And Trump allies are trying to falsely claim that dangerous incidents that come from denied or restrictive productive Care Access are exagerated. They are saying it is quote lies and claims that Georgias Abortion Law is not the reason for amber thurmans death. What is your reaction to different reactions on this topic from the campaign . Woman in america know it is frankly, bs. The truth is republicans are the ones that created this crisis starting with trump, who claimed credit, rightly so, for overturning roe v. Wade, now we are living with the dove stating consequences with that decision what we saw in the Vice President in contrast in georgia she is meeting the moment that americans are in and telling them i understand how angry you are and i am to, lets work to get out of the mess we are in. The difference in responses to this question and these deaths just really lay bear the stakes in front of us and the choice that The American people have when it comes to the president ial race. Now, on tuesday, senate re
