Republicans, in one key Battleground State are pushing forward with a rather controversial Rule Change fueled by trumps disproved, debunked election lies about the 2020 election. And leading this hour, Vice President Kamala Harris may have won the debate, but she could, could still well lose the election today. The Harris Campaign says, despite any momentum from Last Nights performance, they still consider this a 50, 50 race, a Coin Flip than with just 55 days to go so the Harris Campaign says theyre not taking their feet off the gas.

All in starts right now. Good evening from new york. Im chris hayes. It was a big day for the future of american democracy. We will get to that significant action in a moment, but before we do, just give me a second to go back to the context of what happened in the last election.
