3:00 am
they tell you he has got the greatest economy. why is he talking about the border? we have a problem at the border. >> very powerful are trying to convince us that speaking of people with dignity and respect is an outdated form of political correctness. >> if you want to protect criminal aliens, you should vote democrat. >> we need you out there! everybody must win win!
3:01 am
>> tonight, we are live from the arizona border where a vicious caravan of dozens, maybe millions, of illegal grants is headed straight for you and your grandchildren. good morning from washington. i'm victor blackwell. >> i'm christi paul. so glad to be here with you as we are heading into midterm territory here within just two days now. >> yeah. the midterm elections are nearly here. a new abc news/"the washington post" poll released within the last few hours shows an edge for democrats. the chief issues driving people to the polls, president trump and health care. >> will the country move more toward president trump's vision or in a different direction is what a lot of people are asking. >> the lead campaigners here, the current president versus the previous one. former president barack obama and vice president joe biden in illinois and indiana and pennsylvania. president trump and vice president mike pence in tennessee and georgia.
3:02 am
trump's rallies are glossing over pair of supreme court picks instead of focusing on immigration what he says is a simp simple choice. >> if you want to protect criminal aliens, you should vote democrat. if you want to protect law abiding americans, vote republican. it's really very simple. cnn correspondent ryan nobles is live at the white house. good morning to you. >> good morning to you, victor. at hin that where you see the press focusing right now is individual districts. he is heading to places where his approval ratizing strong and he can drive out the vote and
3:03 am
you see this in what is he talking about. this is about getting the base to the polls on tuesday and one of the big issues that drives republican voters is immigration and this is what the president had to say about immigration last night in florida. >> when you look at that caravan coming up, that is not what we want. that's not for us, folks, not for us. and we want people to come through our strong borders but they have to come in legally. they have to come in absolutely through a process and they have to come in through merit. >> reporter: on other side, democrats continue believe that health care is the issue that will drive their voters to the polls and they are using some big names to get out that message. president obama has been in several states and vice president joe biden is campaigning relentlessly just after labor day. he talked about health care during his speech. take a listen to what he had to
3:04 am
say. >> [ inaudible ] honest. he said deal with -- they created they have to be more costly medicaid and social security. watch happens. lives of so many people. >> reporter: you can hear in the vice president's voice how much he has been on the campaign trail, starting to lose it. he was in ohio yesterday, home to several key house districts that could decide who controls congress after election day. meanwhile, the president continuing to head to those ruby red places where he remains popular. he'll be in georgia later today and then he will finish out the campaign sunday in chattanooga,
3:05 am
tennessee, a busy day the president as they try to push the voters to the poll but the american people will have the final decision on tuesday night. >> ryan nobles, thank you. "saturday night live" has noticed the fear mongering. take a listen. >> tonight, we are live from the arizona border where a vicious caravan of dozens, maybe millions, of illegal immigrants is headed straight for you and your grandchildren and that is not fear mongering. that is just -- the truth. >> we are going to see more of that later in the show. let's talk about all of these issues with our panel this morning. cnn white house report steven collinson and democratic strategist joe trippy and cnn
3:06 am
political commentator alice stewart. alice, gallup has a new poll this weekend showing the issues that rank by priority for voters, health care at the top at 80%%, tied at second, economy and immigration with 78%. this among registered voters. reconcile this with the president almost exclusive, if not primary focus, on immigration. >> that is his big issue. for him, in his mind, it worked for him when he was running for president and he believes it will work this time. it is securing the border and national security is something that resonates with republican voters. that's why he is using this caravan as kind of an optic to reinforce his message of needing to secure the border and do away with the democrat policies of catch and release. while he said at these rallies, the senators in these areas and the people running for state
3:07 am
office, they are talking about the economy, they are talking about the fact that the october jobs report shows 250,000 jobs created and talking about strong job growth and we are talking about 3.7% unemployment. there's a dual message here. the president is driving home what he is comfortable with and the state level are driving home the economic message with jobs in the economy is critical. >> joe, claire mccaskill in a press conference this week said i support the president 100% doing what needs to do to secure the border is how immigration has become and counter the view the president is putting out there how dems see it. does has help eher? >> on supporting the border, yes. the way the president takes on and attacks the caravan and policy and breaking up families, all of these kinds of things,
3:08 am
can you support stronger security at the border own not that kind of language and not that kind of attack. look. this excites his base, no doubt about it. but what i saw in alabama when we did the win of doug jones down there, was the women, republican women and younger republicans are exhausted by that language. that is why he has got such a low approval rating rye now. i think it's rating that is going to drive this election. not a lot of these issues. i know democrats will be animated by health care and so will independents and his base will be animated by gragimmigra but in the end every one of these incumbents in the house races are getting hard time above the approval rating. when it's low in your district is there big trouble on tuesday and in these states he has a higher approval rating that is going to help some of these senate candidates he is campaigning for but i'm not sure driving immigration is helping other -- as many times he gets
3:09 am
somebody's base out he is exciting the democratic base and getting them more motivated to move and he is losing some of these republican women and some younger republicans who just cannot handle his tone. >> mccaskill needing to go more towards the middle, she needs to. she and her republican opponent, that race is tighter than two coats of paint. she needs to to show those that are more moderate and people that think -- want her to be more of a trump voter, she has to convey that message that she is willing to cross the aisle and vote on the republican side because that is where that state is. >> we are seeing that in indiana and west virginia and those trump states from 2016. steven, let me come to you with a point alice just made about the distinction, i'll call it, between what the president talks about at the rallies and some of the republicans and their districts and states are talking about. i want you to listen to part of an interview that dana bash had with president trump's 2020
3:10 am
campaign manager and what he said about these rallies. let's watch. >> i would say that the president being at the rallies and being pay all of those are significant. they are becoming shows. fans walk out now and say, that was awesome. >> he is putting on a show? right. i think part of it, we put on a show. it's politics and marking of politics is a presence. >> first, i find it remarkable he called them fans, right? not voters, not supporters but they are fans and putting on a show. the question who is the star the president is talking about himself and what he wants to talk about. any evidence these are helping the republican candidates? >> the president has made a choice clearly he is the issue in this election. midterm elections in the first term of a presidency presidents try to diminish themselves because voters historically have given someone power in the presidential election and stray
3:11 am
them but not how the president operates. he could have run on i think a strong message would have been to say, look. president trump has given americans a pay rise for the first time since the great recession with the tax cuts and now you're seeing economic numbers where wages are rising for the first time in ten years. but he has made a strategic choice that won't be enough to get republicans to the polls and the numbers he needs them to to win this election. now, come wednesday, if we are looking at a democratic house, a lot of people are going to start saying was that the right strategy and i think that really raises questions if that is the case about what would happen in the 2020 election. is the president's hard-line message on immigration fear mongering over immigration something that will help the republicans win back the white house in 2020. >> joe, i want to ask you something this alice touched on very briefly. the moderates. there is a big sector of the population who is going to go
3:12 am
vote hopefully, and who aren't on the left all the way, aren't on the right all the way. that they may be having a lot of confusion about what to do right now. where do the moderates go? >> first of all, there aren't that many of them. at least -- because what has happened we get more polarized people, we talk about tribalism -- >> mythical undecided voters out there. >> yeah. but what -- again, what i think is going on is, you know, you look at where the economy is and then lot where americans say the country direction is. they say it's on the wrong track, the majority of them, way over what you would think with the economy, with all of this. everything is chugging along. that has to do because of the president. again, i think his personalities, his support of abusive attack of everybody. and at least in the races i've
3:13 am
seen, those moderates, they are confused. they like this about his policy, like that about the other policy. >> moderates who are normally liberal and republican are not necessarily independents and not necessarily undecided but -- >> i think what is happening is they are looking at each of these candidates and saying who is going to add to the chaos of division and hatred and the mess going on in washington or is somebody going to be a healer and bring people together. >> you're saying it's coming down to the issues as much as -- >> the issues of -- if you have two people angry and screaming at each other, he'll just stick with the chaos person from my own side. right? but if there is somebody who divisive and angry and somebody who is saying, look, can't we find common ground and solve some problems? that could be a republican but that is where they are going to go. >> stephen, this is the first test to see if president trump
3:14 am
can do what president obama could not do which is transfer that coalition, that support. president tomorrow struggled in the midterms even with the 2016 election to get his voters to come out. president trump has said i'm on the ballot. my name not there but. >> right. not just obama. president bush before him had two bad midterm elections apart from, of course, the first one where we had the september 11th. a number of the republican candidates the president has been campaigning for styled themselves much after the the president and maybe that will help transfer some of the president's support. president trump is such a dominant feature in everybody's lives now with his twitter feed. it's impossible to ignore him. it's possible that if you're in a republican state, the
3:15 am
president's strong personality and dominance helps. the question, again, what happens in these house races and most suburban districts where the president could be a negative factor. >> thank you all for being here. this morning, democratic candidate for governor in georgia, stacey abrams is with jake tapper on "state of the union." only on cnn at 9:00 a.m. and noon. don't miss a special preelection of cnn prime time. everything starts at 7:00 a.m. p.m. -- 7:00 p.m. gunfire at a young yoga studio took two lives. what police are saying about that man who shot and why some youtube videos may crack the case wide open. whenshe was pregnant,ter failed, in-laws were coming, a little bit of water,

3:20 am
19 minutes past the hour. i want to take you to wisconsin. three girl scouts who were working and picking up trash and another woman all killed yesterday when a pickup truck hit them along the road. >> police say the driver jumped a lane of traffic, ran into a ditch and hit the girls. he also injured another girl who is in critical condition. the driver initially took off from the scene but later turned himself in. a vigil is planned tonight at florida state university for two victims shot and killed friday. this was inside that tallahassee yoga studio. >> police say the gunman came in and posed as a customer and started shooting. there is his picture. he wounded five others including one person who was pistol-whipped. some people in the class did try to stop him. but the shooter took his own life then. >> let's bring in cnn national correspondent diane gallagher now. what are we learning about the women who died? >> reporter: these both appear
3:21 am
to be two different women who impacted their communities greatly. 61-year-old nancy van vessem was the chief medical director in tallahassee and part of the florida state university tackle. people spoke of her as driven and compassionate. 21-year-old maura binkley was a member of a sorority. his father spoke on the phone about maura. >> maura lived a life devoted to love and caring for others and have that be a vehicle for change to stem the tide of violence, the threats to literally overwhelm our society. >> reporter: her fraternity
3:22 am
tri-delta said that maura embodied the tra delta woman and she was brave, bold, and kind. >> diane, do we know if the shooter was targeting somebody specific when he wen in there? does he have a history of violence? what do we know about him? >> reporter: as far as him targeting someone specific, police say they don't know at this point. they haven't been able to make a direct connection between this 40-year-old man and that specific yoga studio. they are still working through his social media and his home and things like that. he lived four hours away. he actually drove to tallahassee, got a hotel room and then went into the yoga studio to commit this crime. now he is an fsu graduate and tallahassee police say that they had multiple calls about him harassing young women. according to "the new york times," he has a very disturbing digital footprint. there were videos posted four years ago that were misogynist and racist.
3:23 am
he called women names. he takes these list of women that he had liked dating back to eighth grade through his time in the army and he complains and laments that they were not attracted to him. he also is angry that he felt like some of those women liked black men instead of him and goes on racist rants in the videos as well. he praises a 2016 mass murderer who had similar views about women and kind of brought on this idea of what people learned about the incell society involuntarily celibate. at this point, they are still trying to figure out what the actual motive was and that connection to that studio. >> my goodness. diane gallagher, thank you for breaking it down for us. two days out from the midterms and millions of early votes have been cast in the election and young voters are the key to have their voices heard. coming up, how the youth vote could shift the balance of power in washington. ♪

3:29 am
campaigning, it all comes down to the next two days. republicans and democrats and independents making their final arguments to voters and hoping to secure power in washington and in three dozen states across the country. >> yeah. president trump has held a slew of rallies across the country hoping to shore up his party's control of both houses of congress. also at stake the president is his agenda the next two years. former president obama and former vice president and joe biden and a number of celebrities, they are all campaigning after locked out of power for two years and democrats are looking to check president's trump and his agenda today. young voters are many voting for the first time. >> andrew hanson is vice chair of communications for the d.c. young republicans and jack israeli is here for the young democrats and chief media correspondent and host of "reliable sources" brian stelter. let's start here with andrew. the polling is all over the place on young voters.
3:30 am
some say that young voters are among the most enthused and the most excited about voting. nbc came out with a poll showing only a third of millennials plan to vote. every cycle we get this hype this is the time that young voters are going to make their mark. why should anybody believe it this year? >> well, it's a very polarized political climate and young voters i think are looking for darcht reasa different reason to vote. >> what issues specifically are young voters looking at? >> social issues are big them or issues their parents have talked about whether it's education or security and coming together in an important way and young voters want somebody to knock on their door and say vote bus and why they should vote. >> this is what is interesting to me. it sounds like people complain about in terms of entitlement. >> yeah. >> you want to be wooed.
3:31 am
ut to be court. why don't you just exercise your right to vote? >> it's a good question. i can't speak for everybody but i do vote myself, so i'm engaged in the political process and i enjoy voting and a right i don't take lightly. we have to be able to spread that message across america for the young voters. >> zachary, let's talk about the millennial candidates. lots of millennials running not just at the state level but cortez is only 29 years old. should voters expect a different style of leadership from millennials, from young voters? >> yes. i think younger people, especially those running for office, bring forth a new set of ideas and a way of approaching things, so a lot of young people, they are very civically involved but they haven't really been in the political fray as much as they should be. so i think that their approach will be one in which is more
3:32 am
conclusi inclusive, more broader reaching and focuses on issues that affect younger people more than what we have seen in the current generation of politicians. >> what about social media, brian? is there a sense of how social media is affecting the young vote specifically? >> that is definitely one of the x-factors in this conversation. every two years, every time it's an election season, there is even more saturation of mobile phones and devices of new ways to reach voters. and certainly we have seen democrats having a lot of success online and kind of in the online version of the election. whether it translates to real votes or note, we will find out in two days. i think tuesday is all about surprises. one of the challenges covering this race is that it's really, really hard to reach on people on their phones to poll them. now look. it's hard for everybody. hard to get anybody on the phone to poll them these days but young people are hard to get on the phone to poll. so the data that we have about how young people are going to vote or whether they are going to vote, some of it is a little
3:33 am
wobbly and i think open to interpretation and we know the early vote among people is way, way up. the percentages are huge. they are off the charts. however, because the youth vote is relatively low the percentages might look big but the raw vote totally may not be that impressive. we are also seeing early vote high among older votes who might be among the resistance on the left and seeing that all the around. i think every two years we are in for more of a surprise because the polls have hard time to figure out how millennials will vote. >> president trump lost young votes in 2016 and now he is out trying to keep the republican majority and the house and keep it in the senate as well. the style in which he is making his immigration message and delivering that, does that resonate with younger voters? >> i think it does. it comes down to safety and security. you have to localize it and you
3:34 am
have to bring it down to the neighborhood and the community level. immigration and keeping our country safe, they are not separate issues and go hand in hand. i think if he can bring that down to the local level, really make it fit in your neighborhood and say we are going to protect you here at home in your community, i think that will resonate. >> the way in which he speaks about specifically the caravan and an invasion, what we know about younger voters is that a lot of this rhetoric, maybe not in this specific form, i don't know that we have much testing how this type of political argument works, but it often doesn't work with the young people. >> it is a bit divisive but he still is projecting and getting his message out there. i don't think it's going to turn off people as much as you think. as you say, the numbers you don't know. like you said you make the phone calls and get the data. we aren't sure who is going to turn out and how it's affecting them. i think you'll see it's going to be a larger humanitariani issue
3:35 am
down at the border. they are distributing food and water and making sure people down there that are coming to the border trying to cross are taken care of but that doesn't necessarily mean they are allowed in. >> i'll make a prediction on tuesday and i know risky on sunday before election day. i talk about the power of conservative media and sean hannitys of all the word push the vote out on the gop side. i think we will see the partisan of left wing partisan media on tuesday and the young and pod save america. these are programs, web shows, podcasts that attract a youth demographic and attract a younger audience and the forums we saw cortez use to get her message out. i think these formats are against trump's immigration rhetoric and against the races we are seeing in some of these ads but some of these races we may not hear a lot about but a big deal could have an impact on tuesday because all of these new media outlets on the left that
3:36 am
have grown up in the last couple of years. >> which brings me to my next question. a lot of talk about false information being out there, about the twitter purge. you know how to navigate this. zachary, how much credence does your age group, the youth vote, give to all of the information that is online? how important is it for you to kind of weed through it and make sure what you're hearing is true? >> well, i think younger generations of folks are savvy and they know what source of information they can trust and what not to trust. like what was said earlier, there are these new mediums. pod saving is one and others where people are plugging in ways they weren't able to before and that allows them to plug into campaigns they weren't really exposed to before. and, you know, speaking as a young democrat, we really care
3:37 am
about ideas and so things like health care, education, those types of issues, these platforms allow younger folks and younger voters to really reach out to candidates and vice versa. so i think you're going to see a surge in young votes on the left. >> let me ask you about this twitter purge. twitter deleting ten thousands of qaccounts they say were used to discourage voting. we don't know whether to cheer. >> that is the mystery for me head nothing tuesday. how much of this bad behavior, how much of these state sponsored tacks and how many of these outbreak of hate speech all of these problems we have come to associate with social media the past couple of years, how much of this will affect the electorate. it's a mystery. franklin twitter and facebook are black boxes. we we can't see what is going on
3:38 am
these sites. we know message are spread in groups on parts hard to access in facebook. how much will that sway the electorate? we don't know and twitter took down thousands of accounts and mostly trying to tell democrats not to vote and basically a voter suppression effort but we don't know if it's a giant or tiny effort and we may not know ever. >> that is something. it's been a pleasure to have all of you here. brian, good to see you in person. >> thanks. >> andrew and zachary, thank you for being here. we appreciate it. you can hear more from brian, of course. he is sitting in the chair now! he will be back!
