dash.com right now and see how much you can save this is cnn, the world's news network i'm jessica dean in washington. we are 17 days out from election day. donald trump and kamala harris are targeting key battleground states as this campaign enters its final stretch, trump will rally tonight in lotro, pennsylvania. that's outside the pittsburgh suburb though he criticized early believe voting in the past, he has urged detroit supporters in michigan to cast their ballots early tonight, harris is headed to a rally in atlanta where she's going to be joined on stage by superstar musician usher and later tonight in las vegas, former president barack obama was done for harris as nevada kicks off its first day of early voting. so far more than than 11 million people across the country have already cast their ballots with record-breaking early voting turnout reported

in some areas. joining us now to discuss the latest in the race for the white house is democratic strategist julie roginsky and cnn senior political commentator, scott jennings. good to have you both here with us. we are in it now, early voting underway in multiple swing states. julie, we're starting to get some data, but what we do know for sure is that it is record breaking in some places i'm looking at georgia specifically, but but people are voting in big, big numbers. what does this say to you well, if you look at some of the data, you really dive into it. >> there's a huge gender gap going on, especially with young women. you see young women just outperforming both what they did in 2020 and certainly what they are expected to have done this year. and i think that's the overhang from the last two years, especially after the, after the abolition of roe versus wade, that you see that demographic, which really stopped the alleged red wave that was supposed to take place two years ago. they haven't forgotten and they're coming out very strongly. that's not

spin, that's data that you see in places like pennsylvania and places like michigan georgia as well. and you certainly see that gender gap happening, especially young, among young voters, which i think bodes very well for the democratic party. the moment scott, we remember former president trump really attacking early voting mail-in voting in 2020. >> but he and the gop really made a u-turn on that messaging why is that well, we need votes. >> i mean, republicans won't put more votes in the bank. and i think he wants to win the election by the way, i'm shocked to hear you say that people are voting like crazy in georgia. i was told by democrats that nobody could vote in georgia that they've tightened all the laws and nobody could find their polling places and everyone was going to die of thirst. so oh my gosh, i just can't believe the news about people can actually vote in georgia. look, it's never been easier to vote in america and i think it's a good thing that people are casting their ballots and exercising their franchise. i think the data is a bit of a witch's called rdx. but republicans right now in a few states are pretty excited about what they're seeing in terms of what you just said,

republicans grasping onto voting early, voting by mail and here we are as early voting is underway, people are actually casting ballots. >> the candidates are trying to pitch their closing messages to these voters. and julie, the harris campaign ads. and there are a lot of them, but, but, but a lot of them are focused on her claims that her policies would help working and middle-class families blasting trump for using tax policy to help the rich, to help corporations. she's zeroing in on the economy. is that the right move for her? >> well, it is, but let me just say something, scott, about what he said about georgia scott, the reason people are able to vote in georgia, because the judge stepped in and cut rid of all the horrible draconian laws that prevented especially democrats from voting in georgia the last several years. but going back to your policy, yeah. i mean, look, she's closing with an eagle were lost you for a minute, democrat from voting i'm, saying is that there are laws that were very scott i'm saying there are laws that, you know, full-well were very much skewed towards preventing a

certain demographic for voting, which tends to vote democrat a judge agreed oh, i will say yes, she's she's closing with an economic message. he's closing and i listened. i spent a weekend of pennsylvania. that's where i am and i will tell you that what i see on tv from her as a populist economic message, what i see from him it's something about transgender attacks as always, and i will say to you that if you're comparing those two closing messages, i'd much rather be democrats at the moment. they're republicans, they're playing the culture war because they have no economic leg to stand on. she's closing in a much more empowering message that affects both democrats and republicans, which is why you have people like republican charlie dent of pennsylvania coming out for her, which is why you have republicans who have traded like liz cheney and others who've traditionally espouse the conservative economic message, supporting her and not somebody who is so fixated on the culture wars that he's forgotten about the fact that he wants to do something to help the american people in their pocketbooks and scott, i do want to ask you about those closing ads because that is what you see at any of these

swing states. they are heavily focused on taxpayer funded transgender surgeries for prisoners for migrants is that the way to close this message for trump? >> well, it is for some voters because it makes kamala harris seem like a crazy person. i mean, she took these positions and i think donald trump is right to focus on it because people are very unhappy about the state of the country under biden and harris, they're very unhappy about the state of the economy. they don't like the fact that somebody, a politician would suggest that we would take your heart of her tax dollars and use them on transgender surgery for people who are in jail, came into the country illegally, whatever. i mean, it's legitimately a crazy position and why it it calls into question your judgment on everything else. and so yeah, i think it's perfectly fine to be running on this right now because, hey, it's kamala harris who put it into the election. i mean, if she didn't want this to be part of the election, she shouldn't have taken this position in the first place. >> and i do want to ask you to i haven't spoken to you since the bret baier interview

because he asked her about this yes. and she said she was following the law and that the trump administration had had to follow the law as well. i wanted to see what your thoughts were on that look. i think her thoughts on it are pretty clear because she said out loud when she ran for president in 2019, that she absolutely would like to take your taxpayer dollars and spend it on transgender surgeries for people in jail and for people who've come into the country illegally. >> those are her words, those or not donald trump's words, but not bret baier's words, not my words. >> those are her words. and so i think it's a values question. >> it's a judgment question. and a vast majority of the country would look at that and say, well, if you'd spend my tax dollars on that, what else crazy thing would you do and so that's why i think it's smart to put it in the electric chile, you want to respond to that? yeah, i don't even know scott while you're a republican because to be honest with you, you used to be republican with george bush who you suppose he supported a free trade economy because i want to say that you supported, you're

supported a muscular foreign policy. you supported all the things that donald is taken and flush the toilet and all that is left are these cultural battles which appeal to a small sliver of maga voters, but to nobody else i can promise you that my neighbors in pennsylvania, to not sit around wondering if their child is going to be able to get taxpayer funded surgery. they are wondering why their apple phone may cost thousands of dollars more if these trade policies that donald trump trump has a spousing go into effect. they are wondering why ssos, director of national intelligence suspected he may be blackmailed by the president of russia, something that is anathema to the reagan party from which you come. i don't understand for the life of me why republicans who support trump still call themselves republicans at ever voted for ronald reagan? in order, george bush or worked for mitch mcconnell or any of the kinds of things that republicans used to stand for it. there's no room for people like that in the republican party anymore which is the only reason why you're still talking about transgender surgery because

there's nothing more left to you and to the republican party anymore. every other thing that you believed in is out the window with this president? the former president, excuse me scott, i see, you know, do you want to say some there you're moving your head. >> i can't tell. >> yeah. look i mean, look, i'll be glad you explained why i'm a republican. >> number one, i want lower taxes. number two, i won conservative judges on the court, trump number three, i want i want a better economy for americans workers. number four, i want a president who cares what's going on in middle america, which the democratic party has completely and totally abandoned. yeah. are there republicans right now? is there a push and pull on foreign policy in the party? absolutely. that's true. all the time for every political party, you don't have total unanimity on every issue. and i do prefer a muscular foreign policy the donald trump, like every other politician i've ever voted for, won't do everything that i like. all of the time. but i'll tell you this kamala harris and joe biden have run this country into the ground. i want a center right government. and most of the time they're going to do what i want to do and all

of the time, she's not and that's why i'm a republican today. >> and julia, i'll give you a final thought. i was gonna get to a clip of harris starting to go even more sharply at trump, but we ran out of time for it, but i'll give you i'll give you a thought and anything you have on kind of way where she's going with her attacks as she closes this out the only thing i will say, you don't want to look close the van and univision town hall, who asked donald trump? >> who's going to pick those gross, who's going to pick that fruit, who's going to make sure that our food prices stay low? would he supports 15 million people from this country who is going to pay you? >> i don't know who is, who is going to pay who is going to pay for the goods that you're getting at? >> fraction of the cost. now, when his trade policy goes into effect, scott and you're not going to be able to buy any of the goods you have for any of the madam letter you're paying for now, that is not my belief. that as republican trend, that is republican economists saying that who is going to take care of this economy when donald

trump engages in his crazy protectionist policies that are going to run this economy to the ground. again, not something that democrats believe, something that even republican economists believe. so from that perspective, if you believe in a center right government, this guy ain't it? all he is is whatever whims come into his head and you all jump behind him. if he said the skies purple tomorrow, you'd say the skies purple tomorrow. there's no there's nothing left in the republican party anymore that is based in any kind of ideology. you don't even have a party platform anymore. it is based on the whims of one man and you're all falling in line. and i think that's really sad for a party that used to stand for something. i didn't agree with a lot of it stood for, but at least it had a coherent message and a coherent policy. now it is literally a cult in thrall to one man. and if he says something else tomorrow, scott, you'd agree with him and i don't understand for the life of me why use it republican who's worked for the republican party your whole life decided to throw out whatever you believed follow this guy is a pied piper down to i just don't understand it.

>> it's got i'll let you have the last word. we were almost we really are out of time, but please please go ahead quickly look well, to hunt for 200 years, democrats have been saying, who will pick, insert agricultural crop? i don't understand why you say those things out loud. it makes you sound incredibly crazy to me, but look, it's not i don't always agree with donald trump. i don't agree. there's virtually no politician alive that i, or i think any other american agrees with all the time and it's my right to agree and disagree and it's also my right to vote for a direction for the government. that's basically in line with where i want to be. there's two people running with harris. none of the time is going to do what i want and trump most of the time is going to do what i want and millions of republicans are going to make that choice whether they come from the romney book mcconnell, reagan, whatever weighing of the republican party millions of republicans are making that calculation today. and the reason you're upset is because harris is struggling, trump is surging any know you're part in trouble, okay. >> we have to leave it there all right. >> julian scott. thank you for

that robust discussion. we do appreciate we're going to be right back a break from breaking news to air. >> have i got news for you? >> breaking news. i'm getting a sandwich. >> we need to talk about what constitutes breaking news. >> provide got news for you. tonight at nine on cnn and stream next day on max but the gains are pumping the markets closed. >> features don't sleep in the after hours bro is monley finance bro she switched careers to make money for weddings and his doctor blown up, sweetie, grab your kidney bank. we're going all in let me ask you for your wedding. >> do you want because ipo in a river let's take as something that your mother always wanted to never gotten or you could give these different investment options a shot. the ride money moves aren't as aggressive as you think. >> i'm keeping the vest. >> when you have kids, you get opinion what happened in bed by eight under 65 degrees outside, and they need a coat.

well, jessica, the u.s. >> is investigating a leak of these highly classified documents that do appear to show the us has intelligence that it has on israel's preparations for a possible strike against iran. and these documents, according to their markings, they are highly classified. their marked top secret, and they also have mark markings indicating that they are only meant to be shown to the u.s. and of course its five eyes allies, which are an intelligence sharing partnership that the u.s. has with some of its closest allies and partners. now, the documents began circulating online on friday, just yesterday, they showed up on telegram account and the us now is not confirming but the city of these documents, but we are told by a source that they are indeed real. and one of them, which is source to the national geospatial intelligence agency. suggests that israel has been moving munitions around. another documents that says that israel has been conducting exercises with its air force in preparation for a possible strike on iran and data source to the national security

agency. so these are very sensitive document coming at a very obviously, very delicate moment in the middle east right now, when israel has been preparing for this massive potentially retaliation against iran for its missile barrage on october 1. and of course, the u.s. israeli relationship could be strained by this, given that this is very highly sensitive information that was put out in a leak. apparently, now, the u.s. says that it is the officials we spoke to say they are investigating this, they are not confirming the authenticity of the documents. cnn is not going to quote from those documents or share them directly, jessica. >> all right. natasha bertrand with the latest reporting. thank you so much for that. at also tonight, huge crowds of protesters are gathering across israel demanding prime minister benjamin netanyahu make a deal to bring home the hostages that are still being held in gaza over a year after october 7. today, an airstrike in central gaza reportedly killed 11 members of the same family. there and not too far away gaza's civil defense officials

say an israeli strike targeted a school were displaced, people, people were sheltering. meanwhile, netanyahu is vowing that a drone attack on his home was a quote, bitter mistake. he was not home. no one was injured. we have cnn chief global affairs correspondent matthew chance, who he's joining us now, live from tel aviv matthew, what more are we learning about this drone attack military jessica, it was fired from i've been on and it struck an area near it's not clear whether it was inside the grounds of but it was near the home of benjamin netanyahu and his family in the town of caesarion, which is in central israel. >> nobody at the house was injured. the israeli prime minister and his wife were not there. were any of his family because it seems and so that's something but as you can imagine, it's provoked an angry reaction from the israeli prime minister himself has issued a statement calling it

an assassination attempt. he's blamed what he calls the agents of a ran inside lebanon, by which of course he means the shia militia, hezbollah and he's vowed that it will not stop him or israel from carrying out what it calls his war of revival. in the region. and in lebanon, of course, israel has been engaged in carrying out strikes against hezbollah inside southern lebanon and in beirut as well. over the course of the past extended period of time, past several weeks or at the very three at the very least it's i suppose an indication not for the first time that despite israel's very complex and sophisticated air defenses, it is possible for drones like this low-tech fired from lebanon to penetrate through and potentially cause some damage. they didn't on this occasion. but, you know, i think sent a powerful message and matthew, i also want to ask

you about this new video released by the idf that the idf says shows hamas leader yahya sinwar just hours before the october 7 massacre. walk us through the significance of this video and its release >> it shows yahya sinwar, and his children, and possibly other family members as well are walking through a tunnel. obviously in gaza, the israeli military says it's in khan younis in the hours before the october 7 attacks. and what the israeli military are saying is that basically this is an example of how sinwar prioritized himself and his family, whereas other people in gaza were not able to take shelter in the tunnels, for instance so i mean, of course in the past year, there's been a ferocious barrage of the gaza strip in which more than 40,000 people, according to hamas controlled health ministry officials inside gaza have been

killed but for much of that, sinwar and his family is the implication were, were hiding in these tunnels. now, we know that yahya sinwar, just on wednesday, was stumbled upon by an israeli patrol. he was killed in that encounter and hamas has been reeling from that killing and it's not clear yet who's going to take over, but in last few minutes, hamas has issued a statement as well basically rejecting the idea that sinwar hid from israeli bombs in these tunnels and said instead he has been moving from from area to area inside gaza and sort of leading from the front in what, they say is the resistance against israel. jessica alright matthew chance for us, live in tel aviv. thank you so much for that reporting. >> still ahead. we're going to talk to the father of one israeli american captured on october 7, who's still being held hostage. how he's reacting to the death of the

hamas leader kamala harris yes. >> wednesday at nine eastern on cnn you've got to pepto predicament as you overdid it on the loaded fries. >> now your gut is in the gutter i'm doing with pecker doe fast mouth. >> so you can keep on rolling when you are due i undo it with pepto-bismol. this is the carry on closet, the suitcase with a one-of-a-kind clauses system that keeps you organized anywhere. hackl you need for up to ten days and travel without ever unpacking. >> the comfort of homes on the go unpacking seconds. and still guard dock co everyone stay safe an unsung hero in a building full of everyday heroes it's just how he likes it. >> the industrial great products you need call clicker stopped by granger for the ones who get it done whoa, whoa

for having me first i just want to ask you about, yahya sinwar's death the us official certainly are very concerned, are very hopeful that this could be the end, that this could be the moment where a deal could be struck. >> what do you think the u.s. >> administration that this is a moment that needs to be sees the world is different place, certainly the middle east is a different place. now, two days after the death of sinwar the undisputed leader of a terrorist organization, but undisputed nonetheless it allows for, at least we hope some kind of progress that was not possible before. in terms of a negotiated agreement. >> but alongside those that optimism and there's enormous

fear amongst the hostage families that because of the chaos within hamas that actual captors mid mid-level hamas terrorists and it's very possible that out of panic confusion self-interest will take matters into their own hands take revenge or simply execute the hostages. so if things were incredibly urgent before the death of sinwar no matter how you look at it, it's even more urgent now that some kind of arrangement be made, whether it's through a negotiated process and pressure. now full bore from the intermediaries or through some other arrangements with the people who are holding our loved ones and i also want to ask you about the videos that the idf has been releasing around sinwar's death the hours leading up to them, the drone videos.
