2:02 am
presidential candidates is their last chance to sway vote as an a down to the wire runoff. president j. a balsam arrow and challenger luis and osteo, luna da silva, will go head to head 2 days out from the election. it's expected to be another fiery encounter in what shaping up as one of the closest elections in brazil, monica inaccurate was in rio de janeiro ahead of that debate, monica, this is one of the tightest presidential boats brazil has ever seen. so what are you expecting from the debate to light his? this is a nail biting election to say the very least. we don't expect people really to change their vote because of the debate. it's a debate that starting late at night, so people will have to stay awake to really watch it. but on the other hand, it's of debate just between 2 people. and the last debate they just, the candidates just took their time to take jacks at one another. where the ball sonata accusing lula of having awe of his government and having been corrupt,
2:03 am
lula himself, had been imprisoned, and the corruption charges were then later dismissed. but ah, and bolton and lula, the other hand accusing bull sonata for the delay, the vaccines in a panoramic. they killed many, many brazilians. and so, but this time, just yesterday, ah, lula came out and published a letter to the brazilian voters, making some proposals. and he said he would maintain the handouts which are being for the poor of around a $120.00 per person. plus he added another $30.00 for every child below 6 years old. so the economy is really at the forefront of this election. the business community, of course, is wondering where this money will come from, but also not on the other hand, who had been elected are promising. ah, free mar kids sen, an and a very business friendly our policy. he has not been able to do that. he was the
2:04 am
1st one that started giving out handouts just recently the last 13 months before the election. so we're going to see these 2 people confronting each other. they're very different people, but they're also well known candidates, one being a former president and the other one, the incumbent president or monica not to have life as they're in rio de janeiro, monica, thank you. what with only a few points separating the 2 candidates pollsters. eyes are on the southern state of mascot ice as our latin america edit salisia newman report. it could be voters there who decide a highly competitive race. the capital of minas jed ice doesn't stop moving to the sound of campaigning. this is preserves more significant battle ground state where left is candid lula. the cba has a very slim lead barbara vienna once the incumbent president jane, also now don't out of office. and she's appealing to women who make up more than
2:05 am
half the voters. amazon, if i want to be bull scenario is a massage analyst and sexist man. he'd meet offensive comments to female journalists to women. he said that women should earn less because they get pregnant . so if bull sanara wins, women lose, i'm basically preaching to the converted why lives here most. c i mean to women and it move, read, didn't know they want to make that present and to throw their 3 minus to dice is regarded as a micro sample of the brazilian electorate. and at this busy watering hole politics is on everyone's lips or support on his own. no, we've never had anything like this kind of polarization of brazil before joe thought it thought both. nora is my man. i'm not going to vote for a former convict. you have to be crazy to vote for lula ah,
2:06 am
in this upper middle class neighborhood, also not a support. you sing the national anthem, dressed in the brazilian flag in line with their candidates nationalist stance. it's not going to possible up. i mean bold scenario is totally pro family it. how can someone who supports the found libby against women? there's no way in rural blue. my venial voters tend to support lula. but abstention is high, especially among the poor, who often can't afford the bus to go to vote. i think one of the reasons why lula is, is pending lot of time in his relas amy and this is his lack is exactly to try to make those voters go to vote. if this race is titus must predict every single vote will count. especially here in ministry dice where mill brazilian president has ever won without winning this state. to see a human al jazeera boomer dean, you brazil. he was. how speaker nancy pelosi,
2:07 am
his husband as undergone surgery after being attacked at their home in san francisco. the suspect is believed have shouted, where is nancy before beating a 2 year old pool pillows with a hammer at the time? nancy pelosi was in washington dc with our security team. the 42 year old suspect has been charged with attempted homicide. when the officers arrive on see the encountered an adult nail and mr. policies, husband, paul, our officers observe myths, pelosi and the suspect, both holding a hammer. the suspect pulled the hammer away from mister milosevic and violently assaulted him with it. our officers immediately tackled the suspect, disarmed him, took him into custody, requested emergency back up, and rendered medical aid. the suspect has been identified as 42 year old debit. the peppy will rosin jordan joins us live now from washington, dc, with more on the story. roth, so this was clearly
2:08 am
a very serious breach in security around nancy pelosi house. what more details i were hearing about the attack? well apparently as a man allegedly broke into the polo c home, which is a rather well known location in san francisco around 2 30 am local time. and apparently the man was trying to tie up paul pelosi. but there are numerous reports indicating that pelosi was able to call for emergency health. and that time the of man didn't realize that he had called for police. that's why the officer say that they witnessed the attack actually happening. now apparently paul pelosi suffered a fractured skull. as well as injuries to his right arm and to his hand. but he is out of surgery. the speaker of the house, nancy pelosi landed at san francisco international airport a short time ago and is on her way to the hospital to be with her husband. and she

2:10 am
their brief as it were to protect the relatives of those members of congress and not just the members themselves. then you're going to see these legislators spending of their own congressional funds to provide for their security. we are in an environment here in the united states where there is not just growing distrust of politicians and of other government officials. but we're seeing an increase in attempts to attack these people who are engaged in public service. and so this is a matter that could very well be on the agenda when members of congress come back after the mid term elections. but it really does come down to, can they find the political will to actually expand the number of capital police, expand their authority to protect relatives, as well as other members of congress, and whether the american public is going to go along with it. one thing that we have seen throughout of friday has been this question of, well,
2:11 am
where's the secret service? the secret service doesn't have the authority to protect members of congress. their responsibility is limited to the executive branch. more for specifically to the president and the vice president and members of their families. right, arose jordan, life was there in washington, dc. ross. thank you. was more so to come here now to 0, including the catch of the day. but fishermen say their livelihoods are threatened by plans to protect waters around the time english and another. booking, we look at what catalyst trying to showcase in a football woke up one status ah color. the weather is lottie settled across a good part of north america, but we have got some lively showers long, dispose of rain and risk of flooding into the deep south,
