hello and welcome to our viewers joining us here in the united states and all around the

world. you are watching "cnn newsroom," and i'm rosemary church. just ahead we are just one day away from the 2022 mid-terms, pivotal elections that will determine what the biden administration will be able to get done in the next two years. candidates are battling it out for the will of the voters across the country. we'll bring you details of the key races. and aid to ukrainian could be at risk if republicans take control of congress. a ukrainian mp shares her message. good to have you with us. so candidates across the united states are gearing up to make their final pitch to voters with just one day to go before the critical mid-term elections, and the stakes could not be higher. on the ballot all 435 house seats and 35 of the 100 senate

seats, the outcome of this vote will determine who controls congress. in the house race ratings by inside elections shows republicans appear to have the advantage heading into tuesday. a party needs 218 seats to control the chamber, and with 20 seats rated as a toss up republicans would only need to win a few of those to take back control. in the senate control still appears up for grabs. of the 35 seats on the ballot three are considered a toss up. and those key senate races may end up determining which party will lead the senate. they are playing out now in nevada, georgia, and in the battleground state of pennsylvania. and that's where the race remains tight between democrat john fetterman and republican mehmet oz. president joe biden and former president barack obama traveled to the state to campaign for

fetterman while former president donald trump attended a rally for oz. and cnn's athena jones joins us now live from pennsylvania. so talk to us about what's at stake here, how close this race is, what people are saying about the likely outcome here. >> we're all waiting to see what happens, what happens with turnout, what happens in the final accounting of all this. we know polls suggest fetterman is still ahead of dr. oz in this race, but it's really going to come down to tuesday night because it's a close race. so these last several days bringing out those big guns like former president barack obama, former president donald trump and biden are meant to try to drive turnout here in the state of new hampshire. of course this is challenging environment -- the state of pennsylvania, i should say. this is challenging environment here and across the country because of peoples worries about the economy, about rising inflation, about the impact on their pocketbooks and concerns

about the country not going in the right direction. also a lot of voters disapproving of the job president biden is doing. but when it comes to turnout you've seen already in this state of pennsylvania about a million, about a million people cast their votes early. that is a pretty large number. that's about 20% of the total votes cast in the 2018 mid-terms, so it gives you a sense of the kind of enthusiasm we're seeing already on the ground with voters wanting to add. pennsylvania is one of the states where election officials cannot begin opening and looking at those early voting ballots until election day. so at least a million votes to count. we don't know how quickly we're going to get results here especially if the race is close. bottom line here it's going to come down to turnout and you have each side urging their

voters to get their voters and their base to the polls. president biden was rallying support for governor kathy hochul who's in an unexpectedly close race against republican lee zeldin. he urged voters to vote warning democracy is at stake. >> if y'all show up and vote democracy is sustained. not a joke, this is not hyperbole. for the second time, it's not a joke. it matters. it's in your hands. and look, you're one of the reasons why as i said i've never been more optimistic about the future in this country. >> meanwhile in florida it was a clash of two political rivals. former president donald trump and florida governor ron desantis held competing rallies. trump who was stumping for senator marco rubio once again pushed his false election

claims. >> the election was rigged and stolen and now our country is being destroyed. i ran twice, i've run twice and i did much better the second time than i did the first. getting millions and millions more votes in 2020 than we got in 2016. and now in order to make our country successful, safe, and glorious, i will probably have to do it again, but stay tuned. >> trump and desantis are both eyeing a possible presidential run in 2024, and the rallies may be a preview of a potential gop presidential primary showdown. so let's bring in a professor of government at the university of esx joining us from england. she's taught politics for many years. thanks for being us.

>> thanks for having me. >> we do have to talk to our viewers certainly who live across the globe who don't understand what a mid-term does. of course it's supposed to be a referendum on the government that's currently in power. but what we're seeing here is quite interesting because many of these states and these house seats as well are quite competitive, which is very odd. what do you think is going on here? why is this mid-term 2022 so different to others? >> well, the number one reason why this mid-term is so different is this is probably one of the most important mid-terms for the state of u.s. democracy. i've never seen a mid-term where we're literally fighting to maintain u.s. democracy. you have not just people running in the house and the senate but you also have these other races going on, the governor, the state attorney general, the secretary of state. and they're going to play a really important role in what

happens in the 2024 presidential and congressional election. because the governors are there to ratify the election rules. you have secretaries of state that oversee voting and ballot counting. you have attorney generals handling all the litigation of election results. and it's scary because you have republican candidates and according to "the washington post" there have been 291 republicans that are election deniers. you have some candidates in the case of pennsylvania and arizona that are claiming that if they win they're just not going to accept -- if they don't win, i should say, they're just not going to accept the election result and if they were in power, for example, doug mastriano who's running for governor of pennsylvania he's basically saying if a democrat wins he's not going to accept it. so he's going to be there if trump decides to run which i know he says he's going to anyways. if trump loses he'll refuse to accept that result, so this could tilt the balance of our

election result, and that really goes to the heart of our integrity of our democracy. >> it is fascinating for those of us watching a lot of republicans are saying if i win i accept it, if i lose i don't. i think a lot of voters must find that quite uncanny. i do want to talk about the importance of turnout because i come from australia where it's compulsory to vote. if you don't vote, you get fined, which i'm sure would be interesting to a lot of those voters here in the united states. why is it that so -- so few really turn out? when you look at the population it's quite shocking, isn't it? i guess people are feeling mobilized this time around with not just inflation, the economy, and abortion rights, gun violence. but really there should be more americans out there voting. they don't seem to value the fact they have a voice here. why is that? >> it's really interesting a lot of studies looked at our voting

rights and the rules for voting and for registering. and it's just comparatively speaking compared to all kinds of other democracies around the world, much more difficult to vote in the u.s. there are stricter laws just getting registered to vote. in other countries, other democracies, the onus is on the party to ensure you are registered. you mentioned the case of australia with compulsory voting. there are other countries that have compulsory voting and also since 2020 there have been 30 new laws that make it difficult to vote, more difficult to vote absentee, more difficult to vote abroad, mail-in voting, making it more difficult to use your identification to vote. there is a sense of helplessness for many. when we have cases of voter intimidation, people being threatened. there were reports of people

with guns who were threatening people trying to vote properly. that's going to depress voter turnout, and we see this type of thing happening in regimes around the world. that's going to make it difficult for people to say you know what i'm going to take on this effort and huge risk to vote particularly when there's also this feeling that their vote doesn't matter and that the outcome is a forgone conclusion. >> it's certainly shocking to think that a super power has barriers to voting. it's not very democratic at all, is it? so overall, natasha, talk to us about how you think this will shakeout in terms of the house and the senate. >> well, i think it's going to be nearly impossible for the democrats to maintain their majority in the house. they have to really have a miracle, and the republicans only have to turn five seats, and there are 40 seats that are competitive, and it just doesn't look likely that the democrats

can hold onto that. in terms of a senate that's more of a toss up, but again republicans only have to turn just one seat, and there's really competitive races where the democrats are the incumbents or have that seat in georgia, in arizona, in nevada. and it's not likely that they can hold onto all of them. now, they do have a chance of maybe winning the senate seat in pennsylvania. maybe they can overturn ron johnson in wisconsin. but, again, these are a lot of unknown and everything will have to line up perfectly for democrats on election night if they're able to maintain the senate. as i mention some of these other races for governor are much more important in some ways if you think about the state of democracy. and at the moment these races are incredibly tight. so everything would have to align with the democrats, and then you also have on the other side republicans claim they're not going to accept the election results if it doesn't go their

way anyways. >> yeah, which is just fascinating. thank you for so much for your analysis. appreciate it. >> thanks for having me. well, an envelope containing suspicious white powder was sent to the campaign headquarters of kari lake, the republican nominee for arizona governor. a staffer opened the envelope on saturday and is now under medical supervision. so far no reports of injuries. that envelope was one of two that were confiscated by law enforcement and sent to professionals for examination according to a campaign spokesman. lake is condemning the incident saying, quote, we are living in dangerous times. the team said it was taking the threat incredibly serious and thanked authorities for investigating the incident. and do join us tuesday for in-depth special coverage of the crucial u.s. mid-term elections that will determine control of congress starting at 4:00 p.m. eastern. and still to come some u.s.

welcome back, everyone. democrats have pulled out their biggest political messengers ahead of tuesday's mid-term elections. on saturday president joe biden and barack obama came together in pennsylvania to rally the senate candidate john fetterman. they urged people to vote for their party saying democracy itself was at stake. one of the people in attendance was a member of the ukrainian parliament. she tweeted this image of the event say obama was discussing, quote, the values we should all be fighting for. support for u.s. aid to ukraine has started to falter in some places ahead of tuesday's vote. since russia's invasion in february the u.s. has committed more than $17 billion in

assistance to ukraine. this has included artillery, vehicles, and medical supplies. but not every u.s. lawmaker wants that aid to continue. and kira rudik joins me now from washington, d.c. thank you so much for being with us. >> thank you so much for having me. >> so one day to go until the mid-term elections here in the united states. so how much do you worry about the cracks emerging in support for ukraine as russia continues its war on your country? we've been hearing increasing calls from the right and the left for president biden to push harder for peace talks. what's your reaction to all of this? >> of course i'm concerned because the united states is the key ally of ukraine in this war. we rely on the support a lot, and all the statements regarding

this report is worrying for the ukrainian people because closer to winter we need more support. this is why i'm here attending both democratic and republican rallies hoping to deliver my message to candidates and hoping these statements about decreasing the support for ukraine are just preelection statements that people are doing in their rallies and that at the end after their elections they would not result in the actions of decreasing support. that would be critical. yesterday i attended a democratic rally in pennsylvania, and president biden and president obama spoke about the protection of democracy. and when president biden and president obama are saying that we need to keep up this fight, that the fight for democracy is crucial, i want to stand up and

scream, yes, it is crucial because this is what ukrainian people are fighting for. this is what my country's standing for, democratic values, ability to define our own future. this is the thing that is so valuable for us that we are willing to sacrifice our lives for it. so what we need from the united states right now is the support in weapons, in finance, in sanctions. >> as you mention there bipartisan support for ukraine is crucial for your country in the midst of this brutal war. but that bipartisan support is starting to crumble. let's listen to what republican plarjry taylor green has to say about u.s. aid to ukraine. >> democrats have ripped our border wide open, but the only border they care about is ukraine, not america's southern border. under republicans not another penny will go to ukraine.

our country comes first. >> under republicans not another penny will go to ukraine. what's your reaction to that, and what would happen to your country if u.s. aid were to stop as taylor greene suggested? >> right now in ukraine we do not manufacture weapons. we have $5 billion debt in our budget every single month, and we depend on our allies because we need to win this war. if we have the support decreased, this winter will be extremely hard. it will be a winter we'll not survive standing up to vladimir putin and his forces. all their victories and all the success we had so far was because of the bravery of ukrainian people but also because of their supplies and

weapons and finance we received from the united states and european countries. the price of decreasing support would be crucial. and basically stopping support to ukraine would mean that it is okay for the united states to accept that in 21st century it could be possible that one country is annexing territories of another country, committing all kinds of war crimes, breaking all international laws, and the united states as leader of democratic countries would be just standing aside and saying, yeah, we're okay with that. and i'm asking are you really okay with that. and i don't think so. i've been to those rallies. i spoke to people both republican and democratic rallies, and i do not believe this is what people want. people are hugging me and saying they're supporting ukraine and standing with ukraine. and i think politicians need to be speaking on behalf of their

people. and i do believe the american people care about democracy and care about people, and people who are dying there to protect the values that they believe in. >> kira rudik, thank you so much for joining us. >> thank you and glory for ukraine. >> ukraine's president warns russian forces may try to disable the country's infrastructure with missiles obtained from iran. president volodymyr zelenskyy made the claim during his nightly address on sunday. millions of people in cities like kyiv have seen electricity and water knocked out because of russian air strikes over the last few weeks. kyiv's mayor says russia means to make them suffer so they're preparing for the worst, a complete loss of all utilities. >> translator: this is not a war. this is terrorism. this is genocide. putin doesn't need us ukrainians. he needs territory. he needs ukraine without us. that's why everything that is

happening now is genocide. his task is for us to die, to freeze, to make us flee our land so that he can have it. that's what the aggressor wants to achieve. >> further south in kherson residents are also without power and water. major power lines in the area have been heavily damaged with both ukrainian and russian forces blaming each other for the blackouts. ukraine's state energy company will implement scheduled power outages on monday. the company announced the cuts stating ukraine's power grid is not able to resume full operation yet. in iran protests erupted after the alleged killing of a kurdish iranian woman by iranian security forces. cnn obtained this video from the pro reform outlet iran wire. the woman died in tehran after suffering severe injuries on friday caused by baton blows to

the head. according to a kurdish human rights group and iran wire. the protests come as lawmakers on sunday called on the country's judiciary to give severe punishment to rioters. so what more are you learning about these shocking developments? >> reporter: well, rosemary, what people believe the lawmakers in this to the authorities are calling for is death sentences for protesters. they're basically describing these demonstrators as isis fighters and calling on the judiciary to issue speedy verdicts and real severe sentences to deter others. now, this is shocking but not really surprising. these are hard liners who are repeating what we've been hearing from this hard liner

government for weeks now, dismissing the protest movement as riots, as some sort of foreign plot to destabilize the islamic public. but, rosemary, when you hear these sort of statements the concern is this could be an indication what might be coming soon. there more than 14,000 men, women, and children who have been arrested since the protests began in september. more than 1,000 have been indicted in tehran alone, many of them facing charges that carry the death penalty in the islamic republic. so human rights groups are very concerned we soon will be seeing authorities handing these protesters death sentences in what they're describing as these sham and show trial to try and contain this national up rising that nearly two months into it the authorities haven't been able to suppress so far. but despite the violence, rosemary, despite the violence

we're still seeing protests. protesters in a kurdish city were met with gunfire, security forces opening fire injuring 35 people. they say these protests erupted after the death of a kurdish iranian woman who they say was killed by the security forces. they say she was hit on the head by batons in tehran and she died on saturday, and this caused these protests in her hometown. now, authorities are saying that she died of poisoning and that she had a pre-existing medical condition. her father telling state media she died of the flu, but according to the human rights group they say she was active in the protest movement and she was active on social media as well. unfortunately, this is something that we have been seeing time and time again over the past couple of months where authorities are blaming the

death of female protesters, young protell users on natural causes, on suicides. and according to human rights groups and the united nations, rosemary, many of the families of the victims are under immense pressure. they're constantly harassed by authorities to hide the truth. >> it is a horrifying situation in iran. bringing us the latest on those developments, appreciate it. still to come the two senate candidates in wisconsin are in attack mode as they wrap up the race in the hours before election day. hear their final pitches to voters. that's just ahead. and with the cop27 climate conference under way in egypt we'll look at unique proposals to reduce the carbon footprint of humans.

welcome back, everyone. we are now just one day away from the critical mid-term elections in the united states, and the stakes could not be higher. all 435 house seats and 35 of the 100 senate seats are up for grabs while democrats currently hold a slim majority, it remains unclear if they'll be able to hang onto power. in addition 36 states will be electing governor. candidates in key states have ramped up their campaign in the lead up to tuesday's election in an effort to sway undecided voters and get their base to the polls. in wisconsin a hotly contested race for the senate with republican senator ron johnson

running for re-election against the democratic challenger mandela barnes. >> reporter: as in many places we're past the marathon mind-set and in the final sprint. both candidates are trying to find some sort of daylight in a race that has shown no clear leader to this point. the democratic candidate lieutenant governor mandela barnes was campaigning with the campaign president along with the chair of the dnc. they told us their mind-set or strategy was to meet as many people as they could, to meet them where they are and not to take any vote for granted particularly on some of the state's most important issues. now, senator ron johnson is on the tail end of his own bus tour and clearly both of these candidates are in attack mode. >> i'll tell you we never really

thought we'd have a political party here that first of all has no problem lying and who elects leaders that don't particularly like this country and don't particularly love or like half of us. and let's face it, that is what we have. >> it's terrifying what's going on, to be quite honest with you, especially given the fact he still has not committed to the fact of accepting the results of this election. hasn't accepted the results of the election two years ago. it's a person living completely in the past. >> now, johnson did accept the results of the 2020 election, but he also held a senate hearing looking at alleged irregularities in the voting. this past week he did not commit to accepting tuesday's elections saying he wants full transparency and he doesn't know what the democrats have planned. it's unclear what he means by

that, but of course as we close in on election day itself it will be the ultimate poll between these two and a race that's been neck and neck at this point. >> as americans gear up for election day there are two tropical disturbances in the atlantic one of which may bring troubling weather to florida on tuesday. let's turn to our meteorologist joining us now from the cnn weather center. great to see you. so what is the latest on likely weather conditions for election day? >> we're watching these carefully. there's a couple of disturbances you noted out there across portions of of the atlantic. this particular one has 90% chance of forming has a chance to become tropical storm nicole and approach portions of of the bahamas and eventually parts of florida as we go into tuesday into wednesday. we pause it for you election day, the system sits about 5 miles east of the coast of florida.

certainly some showers and clouds could push in. we think early tuesday morning we begin to see more cloud cover and wednesday night into thursday the system works its way onshore here. possibly a tropical depression or tropical storm at this point. going to bring in quite a bit of rainfall towards the latter portion of the week towards the eastern part of florida and possibly northern florida and eastern georgia as well. when it comes to this afternoon's forecast a few scattered showers across portions of of southern united states while areas around the northeast could see apockets of showers while generally for election day looks very quiet and going to be running above average for a lot of these reasons, climbing into the 70s on monday in philadelphia but dropping sharply down to 58 degrees. sunny skies, don't see much in the way of wet weather across the eastern united states. the western u.s. a different story here, multiple systems working their way across portions of of nevada and california as well.

some very heavy rainfall possible even into southern california as we go monday into tuesday. and parts of nevada will tap into some moisture as well. if you look at some of these studies that will analyze how weather plays a role we'll notice republicans typically turn out in higher numbers than democrats when it comes to wet days. voter participation, rosemary, typically does drop about a percent for every inch of rainfall. parts of california maybe tap into an inch or so, maybe two inches at the most. maybe a negligible difference but in close races even a small amount makes a big difference. >> many thanks as always. appreciate it. u.s. president joe biden is expected to travel to the u.n.'s annual climate summit later this week after the mid-terms. he's expected to tout programs he signed into law to reduce pollution across the u.s. researchers, advocates and the united nations itself are

warning that the world is nowhere near its goal of keeping global warming under 1.5 degrees celsius. mr. biden is expected to deliver remarks on friday. and reports from the u.n. and world meteorological association show carbon and methane hit levels in 2021. cnn's bill weir has more on what's at stake for the future of the planet. >> reporter: if paris was about exuberant hope and glasgow about time lost to covid, then an ideal u.n. climate conference in egypt would rally the world around even boulder climate goals because both levels of heat traffic pollution and average temperatures are higher than ever. while 150 years of industrial

revolution have overheated earth by 1.2 degrees celsius, we're on track to blast past the paris target of 1.5 by a full degree or more. but thanks to vladimir putin and his war in ukraine, the goals of paris have been throttled by a global energy crisis even as big oil racks up record profits. and while the paris agreement never would have happened without u.s.-china cooperation now a boiling trade war over semiconductors could turn the super powers from clean tech partners to rivals. this could upend the entire solar supply chain just as a new u.n. study finds even if every country somehow meet its 2030 targets planet cooking pollution would only fall by 5%. to hold at 1.5 degrees it must drop by 45%. >> i'm doing this for my --

>> greta thunberg will not attend. amnesty international wateries this could be the most restrictive cop ever which is ironic because the main theme is voices for the voiceless. are countries entitled to loss and damage claims from those with the biggest. the u.s. and other rich nations have yet to make good on a $100 billion pledge to the global south but john kerry says he'll keep loss and damage on the agenda. >> i think we are anxious to do this in a very cooperative nonconfrontational way. we don't feel this has to be an issue pounding at people because

we agree as do almost all nations now that much more has to happen faster. >> joe biden has the clean energy incentives of the inflation reduction act to show the world modest american progress, but he may have lost congress by the time he touches down in egypt. the first green king won't attend but after waffling, his new prime minister will. and maybe the most welcome world leader will come from brazil for the change. lula desylva is vowing to end the destruction of the amazon but bolsanaro's supporters in those regions don't seem ready to comply, another example of how another cop brings urgent need, high hopes and endless complications. bill weir, cnn, new york. and still to come a deadly plane crash in tanzania, what may have caused the aircraft to plunge into lake victoria.

welcome back, everyone. former pakistani prime minister imran khan is now out of the hospital days after being wounded in a shooting. he was struck in the leg thursday during a nationwide tour demanding new elections. on sunday he called for an independent inquiry into the apparent assassination attempt, and he again claimed without proof that pakistan's prime minister was one of several officials behind the attack, which also left one person dead and 11 injured. khan says he will resume his political tour on tuesday after it was paused due to that attack. 19 people are dead after a tanzanian commercial flight crashed into lake victoria on sunday. the airline says there are 24 survivors.

for more on this story i'm joined now by larry who joins us live from johannesburg. what more are you learning about this plane crash and of course its possible cause? >> rosemary, there's some concern that the 19 people who died in this plane crash probably died not from the impact of the crash but from drowning because based on eyewitness accounts, survivors of the aircraft, public statements and reconstruction of what might have happened in the final minutes before this plane plunged into lake victoria, it seems clear that after the plane crashed into the lake they were taking in water those seats in front were almost immediately submerged and the officials claimed they were in contact with the pilots, but when they released the names of the people killed the pilot, captain, and first officer were among the dead. this aircraft had only been in operation for about 12 years.

this airline which flies regionally in south africa has a decent safety record and now an investigation begins as to how something this tragic could have happened. rescuers desperately search for survivors among the wreckage of an aircraft submerged in africa's largest fresh-water lake. videos posted to social media show the plane almost entirely under water with only the tail visible. nearby on lookers and fisherman join in on the search and rescue operations. officials say 19 of the 43 people who were onboard died including the captain and first officer after the passenger plane crashed in tanzania. the flight had taken off from tanzania's commercial capital and was destined for a northwestern city. both heavy rainfall and strong winds led the plane to plunge into lake victoria, officials

reported. >> translator: our team and the authorities are heading to bukoba to investigate what happened in this accident. so i'd like to give my condolences to all tanzanians and precision air families. >> officials believe all bodies have been recovered. names of the 18 dead were released apart from one woman who remains unidentified. the airline has also opened a crisis management center to communicate with families as they continue to investigate what went so wrong. funeral services are taking place for the 19 people who died in this accident in bukoba, speaks to the sense of the

tragedy. one tanzania company lost five employees in this. we're waiting to hear if the flight data recorder has been retrieved. >> a heart breaking situation. appreciate it. and still to come we'll break down how benjamin netanyahu looks set to lead a coalition government with a small but clear majority of seats in the israeli parliament. back with that in just a moment. . you know, insomniaia. before i found q quviviq, an fda-approved d insoma medication for adults. you would not believe the things i used to think abouout when i couldn't sleep. hey, linds. i need you to sign this business contract. all 114 pages. lindsey, lindsey!! hey, lindsey! it's workout time. hey, big man, we're in the middle of something here. yeah, it's called physical fitness. just a couple dozen more questions, lindsey. don't forget to pack your phone charger for tomorrow morning's flight. it's plugged in right over there.

welcome back, everyone. well, voters across the united states will be casting their ballots in the high stakes mid-term elections taking place just one day from now. all 435 house seats, 35 senate seats, and 36 governors offices are up for grabs. stay with cnn as we track the latest developments and results on election day. an israeli election rule has given benjamin netanyahu an even bigger majority than his popular vote. netanyahu won his most recent bid to take back the office of

prime minister in an election that saw israel's highest voter turnout since 2015. good to see you. so what are you learning about this threshold rule that has given netanyahu a boost? >> rosemary, netanyahu will have 64 seats, him and his bloc all 64 seats in the next parliament. when you look into the math and look into the number, look at the popular vote, he actually should not have had that big of a majority or possibly even a majority at all. some pollsters say he should have had 60 sits. the party has a list of candidates who take up the seats, but there is a rule a party has to pass a threshold of the popular vote of 3.25% before they can be considered for the parliament. otherwise, rosemary, those votes just get thrown away. when we look at the parties that

didn't pass the threshold that was almost 300,000 votes that essentially got thrown away, and so therefore they were not counted. and most of those votes were on the sort of anti-netanyahu bloc. so when you look at the actual numbers less than 40,000 votes separate the pro-benjamin netanyahu bloc and the anti-benjamin netanyahu bloc. the anti-netanyahu bloc would have had 48.9%. it's interesting when you look at how these electoral rules work. and very similar in the united states with the electoral college, sometimes the popular vote, but what actually happens doesn't end up being the same thing. >> explaining that for us, many thanks. and thank you for spending part of your day with me. i'm rosemary church.
