One lucky person could soon be cashing in on the biggest ever lottery jackpot, an estimated $1.6 billion is now at stake in tomorrow night s powerball drawing pushing it just slightly of the last record set in 2016. this will be the 40th drawing since the jackpot was last won in august. if no one wins, it ll tie the record for number of consecutive drawings without a grand prize winner. despite being the biggest prize ever, the lump sum is only about $780 million. back with me tonight our favorite senior reporter harry henton. i m here because i m going to give you advice on how to do. okay. first off, there are some numbers that seem to win more often than the others. that s complete chance. the way you want to win or maximize your chance of winning the biggest prize is to pick numbers above 31. why? because often choose anniversaries and birthdays. of course there s only 31 days ....
Conservative base. now, look, the heavily tracked senate excuse me, gubernatorial race, the rematch between incumbent republican governor brian kemp and the democrat stacey abrams, something that people in georgia are paying close attention to. we re watching kemp talk about his record, talking about the pandemic, keeping businesses open and trying to cast abrams as somebody they should be afraid of. abrams, meanwhile, she, anderson, is focusing on abortion and voting rights and the talk of health care and trying to make georgia a better, more inclusive state for everyone. dianne gallagher, appreciate it from georgia. perspective from cnn political commentator david axelrod, and cnn s one and only, senior data reporters harry henton and abby philips. so walk us through some of the close senate races. we have fresh polling from three key senate races, three of which democrats may need to win to maintain control. ....
The problem is that i m not sure there s a whole lot of evidence that that is going to deal with the economic problems that the country s facing right now. principally inflation, but again, i mean, in this kind of environment, republicans are finding it easy and also, you know, perhaps beneficial to them to simply say things are really bad. we understand your pain, and not really offer to voters anything or much in the way of concrete proposals for what they will actually do if they are given power. and harry, if the democrats lose both chambers or either chamber what does it tell us about national elections in 2024? it says zero, zero, zero, the fact of the matter is the party in power almost always loses house seats. even so in elections, more than half the time that president actually wins re-election. no more coffee, harry. can t help it. he hasn t had any. breaking news from the january 6th select committee that the former president has missed a subpoena deadline to ....
But they also want to talk to their voters about abortion. they want to talk to them about democracy issues. that s why you saw president biden out this week, you know, giving that speech on democracy, and it seems perhaps a little bit perplexing because that issue is a little bit further down. when you look at some of the polls the democratic voters it does matter a lot. they re in the phase now where it s really focused on that. republicans meanwhile are talking obviously a lot about inflation. talking about the problems with the economy and affordability, and they re also talking about issues like crime. it s interesting to see also a lot of republicans in pockets of the country bringing up some of these kind of these culture war issues whether it is transgender rights or critical race theory or what have you, you re seeing some of those other isolated issues popping up in individual states. again, on the republican side that is all an effort to rile up their base, get those folks ....
Democratic but at least it s competitive. remember democrats only need to have a net loss of five seats for republicans to maintain control. so in theory it s plausible that republicans could pick up more than half the seats in order to gain back the house just in the state of oregon. just in the state of oregon. the way you re looking now republicans have a decent chance of taking back the house. i would argue so. i think, you know, the senate leans democrat but this particular point if you re looking at the house overall oregon i think is a good snapshot. republicans are certainly favored there. the question is whether they get 10, 20, or potentially 30 seats if it s a good republican night. thank you very much. appreciate it. harry henton with the data. watch oregon, and thanks for watching us. now watch anderson if you will. ac 360 starts now. good evening. i want to start tonight by taking a moment to share with you a picture of emily parker. she was 6 years old when a gun ....
