Things. but mainly it s that vast pool. immigration advocates are already gearing up for this. we re expecting it to be rolled out from the white house within coming weeks. then a 90-day comment period. those advocates are saying this is going to affect so many people. not just immigrants who have been on those programs in the past. but also any immigrants who live with people. people in their household who have been on those programs. so they can t i cannot underscore enough, craig, how big of a pool this is we re talking about, when we talk about the impact of a policy like this. to be clear, this does not require some sort of congressional approval? that s right. it s just a rulemaking process. what they re doing is just redefining the term public charge. that is a term that was coined in the 1800s when we didn t want immigrants, think ellis island time, coming to the united states who couldn t support themselves. who would be more of a drain on the country than a support. s ....
Congressional? has the closeness of the ohio race, does it already signal a victory of sorts for democrats? i think if republicans lose, craig, you are going to see a panic shutter through the party. because this is a kind of race they should not even be fearing a loss of. what you have going on here i think are three different dynamics. you have what was alluded to at the top of the show about the way that there are traditional kind of wealthier, well educated republicans in the suburbs who might be turned off by the party of trump and therefore will stay home. you also have the fact that there are democrats who are going to be energized by donald trump s very presence there. they see him and they want to vote against him. and by going there, he only motivated them more. we saw that dynamic play out in the pennsylvania special election a few months ago, which the democrat ended up winning there. and then you have another factor that doesn t get quite as much ....
This fire, the mendocino complex fire, has grown at an incredible rate. it has more than doubled in size in just the past four days. fueled by the fact that we re experiencing a lot of heat right now in california. triple digit customers. low humidity. and the winds have really picked up. and incredibly dry conditions. the mendocino county complex fire remains a concern. most of the growth has happened on the north side of the fire, where it s basically heavy forested area with no homes. the major concern is the southern end of the fire, which is closer to residential areas. crews are working hard to put out hot spots to make sure the fire doesn t spread into the residential areas. already this morning we have seen a few neighborhoods have been allowed to return home after being evacuated. so that is a positive sign. with conditions ripe for fire throughout this week here in california, certainly concerns remain high, craig. ....
It s bread and butter stuff they talk about around the kitchen table. reporter: supporters believe that temperance may be key to peeling away votes from the district s well educated typically republican suburbs where some lifelong gop voters are ready to turn their backs on party. do you recognize your republican party when you look at washington right now? not at all. reporter: not at all? not at all. i do not. i just feel that both the house and the senate have been neutered. i don t know what they re thinking. craig, these two candidates are going to face off again in november no matter what happens here tonight. so part of the reason we care so much about this race, this district looks so much like other battleground districts all around the country, right? it s got these wealthy, well educated suburban voters in one corner of it. it s got voters who went more towards president trump in the other corner of it. ....
