I dont think anybody had as much fun as the obamas celebrating in the white house. Thriller. Weve seen him dance a little bit better than. He was having a lot of fun. One week away from the election. Our new tracking poll shows donald trump ahead for the First Time Since may. Its a onepoint lead, 46 45. It comes after that bombshell announcement from james comey and the fbi is fasttracking their investigation into emails linked to Hillary Clintons private server. Clinton firing back. And cecilia vega is in westchester, new york, with her campaign. Good morning, cecilia. Reporter robi before election day is low but the one thing that both have in common on this front. They are both using this investigation to rally their supporters to the polls. Hillary clinton on her Campaign Plane overnight letting loose with staffers after spending her day on the trail trying to extension wish the political fire engulfing her campaign. Im sure a lot of you may be asking what this new email story is about. And they said it wasnt even a close call and i think most people have decided a long time ago what they think about all of this. Reporter to cincinnati, clinton putting on a defiant front. Look, ive said repeatedly, you know, i made a mistake. If they want to look at some more emails of one of my staffers, by all means, go ahead. I conclusion they reached when they looked at my emails last year, right . Reporter that staffer, of course, huma abedin, hillarys top aide who hasnt been seen on the trail since friday when comey announced that renewed investigation after new emails were discovered. Those emails on Anthony Weiners computer, abedins estranged husband part of a separate investigation accused of sexting with a minor. Abedins lawyer saying in a friday from press reports of the possibility that a laptop belonging to mr. Weiner could contain emails of hers while the fbi has not contacted us about this, ms. Abedin will be as she always has been forthcoming and cooperative. The white house staying on the sidelines. Ill defend nor criticize what director dircomey has deci to communicate to the public abou that director comey is intentionally trying to influence the outcome of an election. Reporter donald trump sounding thankful for a preelection day surprise. Good job, huma. Thank you, anthony weiner. Reporter now, clintons strategy on this, she really seems to be trying to tackle it head on. The big question how does this play out when it comes to the ballot box . George, nearly 25 million americans have already cast thanks, cecilia. We are joined by Hillary Clintons Campaign Manager robby mook. Robby, thanks for joining us. I take cecilias last point about a lot of early votes already in the bank but our new poll shows donald trump ahead for the First Time Since may. Pretty dramatic drop over the last ten days. Are you worried this race may slip away from you. Im not, george. But what we are focused on right now is making sure every single one of our supporters understands how important it is that they turn out and vote. Go up and down and have done that the whole time on this race. We have a week to go. Were running like were 0 points behind. There is some evidence you have taken a hit since that announcement from director comey. You are now accusing him of a double standard. Hillary clinton accusing him of bowing to partisan pressure. Are you worried at all that will come back to haunt you . I dont think so, george. You know, director comey has been criticized from both sides on this now. You have a former attorney former attorney general under george w. Bush both saying it was a mistake. Youve had former Justice Department officials saying it was a mistake then weve come to learn from anonymous leaks that are coming out that director comeys own superiors at justice warned him not to do this. This is a break in protocol then just yesterday we found out it was director comey who is privately trying to prevent the report that the russians were the ones who stole emails from staff. The New York Times is reporting this morning that fbi investigators have found no conclusive evidence of a direct link between trump and the russian government. Do you accept that . Well, what we are told theyre investigating again, director comey said what hes doing with Hillary Clinton. He wont say what hes doing with donald trump but what were hearing from anonymous leaks is theyre investigating Donald Trumps exCampaign Manager over his connections to the russians. Page, a gentleman who donald trump said was one of his Foreign Policy advisers. Its not an investigation but an inquiry. Id like director comey to clarify that. He had no problem having a long press conference and editorializing about investigations into secretary clinton. I dont see why he cant come out and explain whats going on with donald trump and it is particularly odd that he was that he was the one who was privately trying to prevent the announcement that it was the agencies said it was the russians that were stealing our emails. He was the one trying to prevent that from being released. Another report in the New York Times suggesting donald trump may have avoided hundreds of millions of dollars in taxes by failing to report forgiven debt as income. Well ask david bossie about that but sure appears donald trump will avoid releasing his tax returns before the election. You know, george, this is unprecedented for 40 years people have gone to the polls started. This is the first time in decades and whats particularly astounding about this recent report is that donald trump was writing off other peoples losses, so not only did he not pay taxes for 20 year, he was writing off peoples losses, some of the loopholes he was using are against the law. One week to go. Are you going to win . We are going to win this election but its important that every one of our supporters turns out. Robby mook, than very deputy Campaign Manager for donald trump. Thanks for coming in. Thanks for having me. You saw robby mook say hes going to win. Youre ahead in our newest poll but the Electoral College is stacked against you. It is but were in great shape. Were on offense everywhere. Hillary clinton, robby mook is understanding what is going on. There is an Enthusiasm Gap for their voters and were showing mr. Trumps having 10,000, 20,000 show up at a rally. Theyre it is so narrow in that Electoral College. You know what, its narrow every four years. For us as the demographics have changed in these states. Well win. Were winning in florida right now and in North Carolina right now. Were going to win ohio and iowa and thats the basis of our path to victory. Public polls show her ahead in North Carolina but even if you win every tate that you just laid out you still have to win other states that are solidly blue right now like New Hampshire. Nevada or someplace like wisconsin. And were going to. Were competing right now heavily in pennsylvania, in New Hampshire, michigan, wisconsin. New mexico. Nevada. You can see youre behind in all those states. We concede its within the margin of error. Our enthusiasm. We have closed this gap as you pointed out dramatically over the last week and continue to expand. Mr. Trumps message of hope, growth and opportunity that hes bringing to every american in every blue state is resonating they want someone they dont want four more years of clinton investigations which ive lived lew. You talk about that but we have this story in the New York Times about donald trump and his taxes suggesting that he wrote off hundreds of millions of dollars in other peoples losses, even though his tax advisers said it was a dubious plan and heres what they say, the tax experts say the maneuver trampled a court tax policy by conferring enormous tax benefits on mr. Trump or losing vt dont the American People have a right to know what mr. Trump did there . Sure, you know, im not familiar with that quote but mr. Trumps under audit. Mr. Trump is going this isnt audit. This was in the early 1990s. Hes been under audit every year for 19 years. Those cases are closed. I understand that. So im not familiar with that exact whose quote that is in the New York Times which obviously had a big problem with mr. Trump has been incredibly tax returns before the election . Hes going to release them when his audit is complete. Even though there are several returns not under audit . Hes going to release them when hes not under audit. Same ask i asked robby mook. Are you going to win. We are going to win. Our enthusiasm and ground game and what Reince Priebus has built is tremendous over the last four years. We have an Incredible Team that we are working well together. David bossie, thanks very much. All right, george, thank you. About their own paths to winning but lets bring in jon karl to break down the strategies. Lets begin, jon, with donald trump. Well, good morning, robin. If you look at the polls you have seen some tightening like weve seen in the National Polls in the states but theres still a long way to go for donald trump. Lets take a look at three of the most recent ones. In florida, trump is on the move. Up 2. Thats within the margin of error in the latest poll but if you look at North Carolina, another one of those must win with four and then New Hampshire, up seven in the latest poll and we havent seen a poll in New Hampshire with a trump lead for a long, long time. So if you look at the map overall, this is the abc news race ratings. Red states advantage trump, blue states, advantage Hillary Clinton. Shes still got a big advantage. To win, robin, what he needs to do is win every single one of the states that we classify as a tos tossup. Carolina, ohio and even if he wins all of those states, even at the runs the table he still is short of the 270 votes he would need to get elected president and needs to flip a blue state. David bossie mentioned pennsylvania. If he can win pennsylvania, a astronaut republicans havent won in 16 years he gets more than 270 and would have enough to win. The bottom line here, robin, is that donald trump needs to run the table. Needs to win every single one of that will not be enough. Lets go back for a moment, jon, to the new tracking poll, abc news tracking poll because people will wake up and see for the First Time Since may that donald trump is in the lead. Yeah, so more than any single factor, what is driving that is enthusiasm. If you go back a week ago, trump had an advantage. His supporters were more enthusiastic about him than Hillary Clintons supporters were about her. That has now flipped. So, you know, Hillary Clinton had i did it the wrong way. Hillary clinton had the advantage a week ago. Now trump does. Its possible on either side you could have one win the popular vote anticipate one win the Electoral College. If you look at our poll and take it literally thats what would happen. Weve seen that happen before. We have seen it happen before.
