republican opponent. s c-span2, republican bill whitmer have their debate. kathy nourse rogers and alyssa brown a chic other in washington's fifth congressional district. that is live at 9:00 p.m. eastern on c-span two. the battle for control of the house is our topic until the end of our program today at 10:00 p.m. david wasserman is our guest in that time. call and to let us know about your favorite house race. republicans you can call to tell us about your favorite house race. mr. wasserman, to get a use field looks like, i want to quote your story from the end of last week, 75 of the 435 seats up in the

house as honorable for a takeover -- vulnerable for a takeover with 70 by republicans and only five held by democrats. what do you rate the chances of democrats taking the house? guest: pretty good. heading into the home stretch and we believe the democrats have a 70%, 75% chance of taking the majority but not a done deal and it will come down to a wide battlefield of races relative to previous elections. astrict level polls suggest polarization of the house in the last month along the lines of the 2016 presidential race. the way i think of this midterm election is the blue wave is concentrated in laces that are within a 20 minute drive of a whole market. that is where democrats are doing well. and district level polls, democrats are maintaining their

leaves and a lot of these upscale suburbs where republicans are currently trailing in places outside of denver, chicago, minneapolis, northern virginia, kansas city, republican incumbents are still behind in those districts that hillary clinton carried. republican numbers improving in trump won districts admiral minnesota and downstate illinois where we moved a race from tossup to leaning republican this morning. upstate new york. the math is sorting itself out. map is sorting itself out. democrats ceiling may be lower than a month ago. anything from a 20-40 seek democratic gain, they need 23 seats to retake the house and the likeliest outcome is again between 25-35 seats. host: if republicans retain control, they would have to pick

up a couple of seats to make that pad larger. we talk about democrats and open targets, are there any targets for republicans this cycle? guest: yes and they have to take advantage of those offensive opportunities to hold off the majority. the most obvious are in minnesota. republicans are doing will -- well in the eighth district were a democrat is leaving congress and the candidate, the republican, is a pretty good fit for this blue-collar seat. he is a former minor-league hockey player, on the police force in duluth for a long time and has opened up a lead over the democrat in a district that donald trump won by 15 points. they also have an opportunity in southern minnesota in the first congressional district in which tim walz is leaving to run for governor. two openlooking at

seats in nevada, the third and fourth districts in las vegas metro area. republicans, in order to hold the majority, probably need to win two or three of those democratic seats. host: we will be talking about many house seats over the next 45 minutes. in about 15 minutes, the house is scheduled to go to a brief pro forma session and we will take you there for live gavel to only expected to be a minute or two so stick around and we will be on the backside of that to talk about house races. sam up first in pittsburgh, pennsylvania, republican. good morning. caller: good morning. when donald trump said he was about to end this, he blamed obama because he did not end it sooner. i agree with our president, we have enough enemies and we do

not want to make more of them and give them visas. think, wepshire, i should change it to his name. asked all american people to ask governments to do this. this is the least we could do in honor of his death and for reminding saudi arabia is that this shame will always be by their side. host: sam talking about the nuclear treaty and the ongoing investigation in the jamal khashoggi death and disappearance. how much are voters in these races focusing on these international issues versus the more domestic or even local issues in their districts? guest: not so much on international is -- international issues, a split screen election in the democrats and republicans talking past

each other on the campaign trail. democrats are focused on health care, specifically running against republicans vote to repeal the aca. mostlicans -- the advertisement is pre-existing conditions, that is -- the democratic base is very fired up about president trump and his temperament. that is something democrats are talking about less on the campaign trail. republicans have closed the enthusiasm gap a bit in the last month or so, a new poll that came out this week suggested that democrats have about a four-point lead in midterm interest, down from a 10 point average they held for most of the and likely that some of the issues republicans are talking the culturaly, flashpoints like the brett kavanaugh confirmation fight, and migrant caravans are better

suited issues for rallying in awakening the donald trump base and tax cuts. they are more visceral and tax cuts fell flat on special elections. host: here is an ad from minnesota's first district race. hitting the republican in the race on the issue of health care. >> it is a health care plan that only a d.c. bureaucrat to love, jim hyde on's plan would strip people with pre-existing conditions like cancer and p plan saysd the aar it would charge older americans five times more and increase health care costs or middle-class families. his health care plan will hurt southern minnesota. political.com.k that race, you have is a tossup.

explain why. guest: the only democratic set -- seat in the tossup column, democrat -- a democrat is leaving to run for governor and is doing pretty well. -- this isvive the rural, southern minnesota, the farm bill. -- belt. even though donald trump won by about 15 points, less likely to thanue trump believers people who cast votes against tiller clinton, and they are skeptical of tariffs. -- against hillary clinton and they are skeptical of tariffs. democrats probably have a better chance of holding the seat. the republicans nominated a candidate who robs them of their

ability to cast him as an outsider. democrats -- the republican candidate spent a lot of his adult career as a congressional staffer. and working for the congressional -- the bureau of printing and engraving. his status as a son of a former congressman prevent republicans from running cleanly against the democrat as a carpetbagger. host: new jersey, john, democrat line. am interested in to republican incumbent congressman andew jersey, tom mcarthur, leonard lance. what is the story on those? guest: i love these races because oftentimes i talk with

other pundits about which races will be the bellwether elections. argues it will be his home district. someone from the new york times it says that says it will be washington 8th but i think it will be new jersey seven, leonard lance, a moderate republican, one of only eight republicans in the house to vote for cap and trade in 2009 but he is walking a political tightrope because he is been hit from the right in the primary and now being hit on the left by a democrat who used to be the washington director of human rights watch. one of the only democrats who is talking a lot about russia on the campaign trail and raising a lot of money based on his work for -- and his connections leading organizations in d.c.

this is a high spending race we view as a tossup at the moment. the third district is in south new jersey and, whereas donald trump narrowly lost the seventh district in central-north new jersey he nearly won the district in south new jersey. ,he problem with tom macarthur he has a much more conservative voting record than lance and broker the american health care act, the republican proposal for repeal and replace of obamacare last year and democrats are calling him the architect of the aca repeal. kim, whorat, andy worked as an isis advisor in the obama white house, perhaps taking a narrow lead in the third district. those will be some of the races to decide the majority and new jersey could turn into a bloodbath for republicans considering they are in line to lose two open seats. host: arnold in knoxville,

tennessee, good morning. are you with us? in ohio.annette good morning. caller: i have a question. what do you believe -- looking for his viewpoint, not what he thinks is more of a general look at it, but what does he personally think that the democrats will win, if you things that, how many seats by, and does he think the democrats have a chance in winning in the senate? i am asking all voters to vote democrat. too many senators and congressmen are voting lock stock and barrel with donald trump. if this was a primary and there was anything like what is out

there, they would be downgrading trump but they're worried because he took their state and there is still strong backing for trump that i say please vote blew up another ticket. what does he think about that, his own personal view for the house and senate? host: you talked about your predictions but can you talk to those ranges more? guest: senate and house may as well be mars and venus because the senate will be decided by red, rural states where the democrats are on the defensive. the house will be decided by the swing suburban seats were donald 51% ofwon between 45 and the vote and a lot of those seats up for grabs. this is a wide battlefield. one of the biggest drivers of this blue wave is the red exodus. the record number of republicans leaving, 41 republicans held

house seats without an incumbent on the ballot this fall, a record going back over a century. out of those 41 seats, there are nine where we rate democrats as the favorite and six we rate as tossups. if the tossups -- wit, democrats the government wealth -- democrats pick up 12, happy 23 they need for the house majority, the zynga's biggest -- the biggest driver. host: batesville, arkansas, democrat, good morning. caller: here in arkansas, on social media, has been captured by the democrats candidate in texas in the round rock-austin area, and air force combat is against a republican incumbent. very noteworthy

campaign ads on social media, on youtube, she is very much behind the veterans affairs of course. not sure how she stands on other issues but she seems to be capturing a lot of attention. that seems to be a very interesting race. i was wondering your thoughts on that race. host: david wasserman? guest: a lot of interest in the 34th district from outside of the district in texas, democrats have had enormous fun raising, and big success at raising money from a base of very passionate democrats nationally thanks to viral videos. the candidate is an air force veteran, search and rescue pilot who sued the defense department to open up more combat positions to women.

device and sheor has potentially a movie being made about her life starring angelina jolie. a democratic ad maker, the best in the business, put together a storyy ad about her life that became a viral since asian. -- viral since asian. -- viral sensation. it raised a lot of money in the central texas, a very republican district, she has used cutouts of the video for 32nd ads in the district. in the district. we have not seen those ads move the numbers comparable to the money she has raised. the republican has been there since 2002 and not face a serious race before, still has a

double-digit lead. it is a long shot for the democrat. talk aboutd we will on thursday on this program when we look at the best and worst political ads of the 2018 cycle and we encourage viewers to turn in not -- tune in on thursday. stephen california, independent. -- steve in california, independent. --ler: i have heard about this is the 28 election like this i have been involved in. thinkappalling to americans do not want health care in their system of getting things done. it is like going to work and having a responsible health care. we do not need a lawyer every time we want to see a doctor. that is a position a lot of these responsible elected officials have put this country

into. i would like to see a fall back on people looking at the facts. looking at them in a way that will improve the future of everyone. host: david wasserman, the issue of health care? guest: it is the number one issue in house races this year. math,o speak about the what is striking to me about the battleground is that democrats could conceivably gain all 23 seats they need from a handful of states, from california, that is the biggest treasure trove of vulnerable republican seats for democrats. after that, pennsylvania has seven vulnerable republican seats, partly because the state supreme court issued a new map that benefits democrats. illinois, new jersey, virginia, also key states.

health care is the top issue in those races but something else is going on, a lot of those dates -- states, the highest taxed states in the countries, some of the wealthiest districts with highest taxes and the democratic message is a dual track, running against s against pre-existing conditions but flipping the script to run against republicans as the party of high taxes for voting for change. states youof the mention key for control of the house, california, pennsylvania, minnesota, we would do a state-by-state analysis next week talking about the house battleground on this program. that will happen monday-friday of next week. a minute or so before the house will come in. , the republicans

with self-inflicted wounds. here is a story from the washington times, duncan hunter, ,hris collins in new york duncan hunter out of california same day may be poised to win their reelection. talk us through those races. >> being indicted does not prevent you from winning a reelection campaign. yes, there are a number of republicans with self-inflicted wounds and these are the most obvious, duncan hunter and chris collins the first republican members of the congress to endorse donald trump for president and now they are both running for reelection under indictment and chris collins got out of the race at one point and got back in later when it was clear the republicans could not get his name off the ballot. these are very republican districts. have sought tos neutralize their own problems by talking about how democrats are

flawed. in san diego, duncan hunter is airing an ad that many people in his own party consider out of bounds, trying to portray the democrats who had a grandfather who was the mastermind of the munich bombing in the 1970's, who died 16 years before the candidate was born, trying to portray him as if it was coming from a family of terrorists. in buffalo, collins is talking about a democrat talking about e house battlefield and the election two weeks away. taking your calls. chuck in colorado, a republican. caller: thank you for c-span. i wanted to say how refreshing it was or has been that president trump caps off it to discuss --has saw fit to

discuss treaties with the american people and where he thinks we should be. we are on the dialogue and it is up forand discussion and we are thinking about it. outing up on it and finding what is to gain. as one of the american people, i appreciate being informed rather than everything being done in secret behind closed doors. host: david wasserman, colorado has some battleground districts. guest: the caller is from the sixth congressional district, aurora, colorado, one of the most honorable republican seats -- vulnerable republican seats, the district voted for hillary clinton by nine points and he needs anti-trump boaters to win the election -- voters to win

the election and he is struggling against a forming armor ranger. a battle between veterans. he has not had to run against a veteran. he has run against state legislatures in the past. kaufman had extensive outreach to growing immigrant communities in his district. he has hosted fundraisers with the ethiopian community and learn to speak spanish. in 2016,n his ads that he disliked both clinton and trump. jason crow is ahead by a handful. host: political triage, when it comes to ad spending by the party committees, can you talk through that and how to follow the money to understand when the committees and the national

parties think these races are going? guest: party committees have to make tough decisions because some races will fall off their map and some races will be latebreaking. colorado 6 is an example of a place the republican congressional committee has stopped spending because they do not see it as a good investment to try to prevent democrats from gaining 23 seats. they see their firewall more aligned with other districts. this districts being added -- district being added to the triage list. host: cap to hear from -- tough to hear if you are the incumbent. guest: some republican incumbents look likely to go down to defeat but still getting help from republicans, including barbara comstock in northern virginia who probably does not have much of a way to reelection but is still receiving some help from personal loyalty of

republicans to her. we are seeing several republicans who are trailing over the summer, maybe getting back a little bit and are intriguing republicans who think maybe we should spend. iowa,m in iowa -- illinois races. , independent, illinois. ticket i voted a split in illinois. i really do not like either representative, one is too far left and the other is too far right. entitlements. our i wish we could get rid of the wars. we need better education for people around 40 years old.

host: who is your congressmen in chatsworth? sarah, running for the 16th district. this is a longshot race for democrats and we expect -- guest: this is a longshot race for democrats and we expect incumbent republican to win. two districts in suburban chicago in trouble for republicans, peter roskam, who used to hold a leadership position in the house republican currently, is behind against the democrats in the sixth district. 14th district, a republican is in a close race against a democratic former hhs official and nurse. he probably has a very narrow lead over her.

downstate illinois republicans are doing well and rodney davis has maintained a lead in the 13th district, which extends from springfield metro come east st. louis to champagne-or vanna -- or vanna. 12th district incumbent has opened up a lead against a highly prized recruit in the democrats, prosecutor named brendan kelly. the reason for that may be steel tariffs which are brought 800 steel jobs back to a city in illinois. another case where the suburbs and rural, small-town areas diverge. host: georgia, john in woodstock, georgia, democrat. caller: we have heard a lot about challengers with very strong fundraising, very viral videos, but in more conservative

districts, any with weaker fundraising and less conservative districts -- in less conservative districts? orst: also about republicans paradis because there are a number of republicans who are not raising the kind of cash necessary to define themselves against these democratic challengers. we moved one race in texas this morning outside of houston from likely republican to win republican in part because the incumbent pete olson who has not had a tough race in a long time only raised about $300,000 in the last quarter and does not have much money left for ads. in the severance of atlanta -- suburbs of atlanta, the incumbent does not have as much money as his republican colleagues and was outraged by the democrat in that race -- out raised by the democrat in that race. republicans got to draw the lines in the last redistricting. georgia, --unty,

when that county, georgia, they voted for mitt romney and john mccain but for hillary clinton. we are talking house races but georgia governor debate is taking place tonight, we will erin at 9:00 p.m. on c-span, c-span.org, listen to it on the free c-span radio app and not :00 tonight -- 9:00 tonight. ohio, good morning. caller: a couple of things. i think the democrats should run tariffs, airbus and china will probably sign a contract, probably this week or next week, worth $16 billion.

side said going to the since the tariffs -- boeing to the side since the tariffs and all the european car companies are in the process of talking to china about car sales in china. basically so that they do not deficit from our tariffs that donald trump is saying we 5%. -- 25%. democrat should also bring of health care. bloomberg news, definitely a business news organization, 200 and the united states ranks second amount -- among the amount of money spent on health care, lower quarter in the efficiency of health care. that is ridiculous. when it comes to my district 14

of the ohio senate -- i should say, representative to congress, becauseing for betty the republican has not had one town hall. since he was elected. that shows me that he is more in the pocket of the plutocracy of this country instead of we the people. thank you very much, have a great day. guest: one of the classic signs of a wave is when you have an incumbent who votes against their party but does not get credit from the other side for it. dave joyce, the republican thembent, voted against republican repeal and replace bill last year on health care. but is only slightly ahead of the democrat. because of the way the district is drawn, dave joyce will hang

on i think but he is one of the republicans in the 112 seats where democrats raise more money than the republican in the last fundraising quarter, 92 republican incumbents and inludes 43 republicans districts we rate as likely or solid republican, which goes to show the desperation of democratic donors to send a message, even in districts not that competitive. host: when have you seen incumbents outraised like that? guest: never, a staggering development and fundraising and also the case that there are diminishing returns. we are in a polarized time where partisans are dug in. much more about activating your own base than persuading persuadable voters. that money only goes so far. host: bonnie, democrat, new york

city. caller: you were talking about republicans with self-inflicted wounds. and supposedlye has not been in his district in ohio is jim jordan, any chance of him losing or is he just as solidly in that gerrymandered district? guest: he was one of the 112 who got out raised but because of the way the district is drawn, i do not think the democrat has much of a chance. sherrod brown, a democrat, is doing pretty well in the senate race and winning a lot of rural ohio at the moment. a big turnaround from 2016. the specter of nancy pelosi as speaker in districts such as republicansl keep with wounds and office. with -- 15nutes left minutes left with david

wasserman. republicans call 202-748-8001. democrats, 202-748-8000. independents, 202-748-8002. michigan, roger, independent. caller: good morning. we have in michigan a proposal to take the redistricting away from the politicians. i believe it is proposal two or three. i am very curious to know -- to have mr. wasserman's opinion on that and are you related to debbie wasserman schultz? maybe i am not seeing the name correctly but i'm curious. guest: i am not. the caller raises an interesting prospect for 2021, because a lot of these races are going to shape the way the map is drawn,

particularly governors races at stake in 2018, 35. i am skeptical we will have reform succeed at greeting more independent commissions for redistricting and 2 -- in 2021. has not comeourt up with a solution to combat partisan gerrymandering. we could see, if democrats when they love the governors races, and they are on track to do so -- when a lot of these governors races, they are on track to do so, it looks like they're the favorite. have aey could do is veto power over republican dominated state legislatures and push more of the map drawing process to the court's. it is awkward for the courts to draw maps that when there's a stalemate between the governor and state legislature, it happens frequently. that could produce maps that are less friendly to republicans and give democrats some opportunities in the next decade.

host: if you're interesting in following redistricting news, redistric.er is @ redistrict. this is the race to replace paul ryan. gamelitics can be a rough but when things are on the line, we cannot afford to dropped the ball on issues that matter, i am brian style and my wisconsin style solution is going long for education and technical training so the next generation of workers in our communities can win again. at the end of the day, we are all on team wisconsin. host: children with mustaches? guest: unconventional to say the least. we have seen a bunch of

unconventional advertisement but it is working for bryan steil. announced hen would leave, it was no longer david versus goliath for democrats. mediaalso known on social as iron stash. for uwthe republican ad is an interesting theme. leane looking at that as a republican race as steil has an advantage because every voter knows that the democrat has been arrested nine times. not every democrat brings an impeccable resume to the table. host: wheeling, west virginia, mike, democrat.

caller: i just have a quick question. i am 72 and retired and lives in the tri-state area in wheeling. across the river is ohio and four miles to the east is pennsylvania. i watch tv and read the newspaper. none of the democratic house of representatives or even the senator, why aren't the democrats talking about mitch mcconnell's issue, when he came on tv and said he would go after health care and social security. i have not hardly heard anything about that in this area. host: good question, mike. guest: a lot of democratic strategist would agree with you. they fault democrats and a lot of the senate and house races for not talking about mitch mcconnell's comments more. inch, wethey give an

need to take it for a mile. yet, we have not heard mitch mcconnell's comments, been ads -- come up in ads. ask whyi was calling to there is no discussion on reinstating the 35% corporate tax and make it retroactive to bank.to get money in the corporations have not pay taxes since 2006. it is affecting our ability to start work on the infrastructure because they are not putting up any money. it is time to get congress to work and reinstate it and make it retroactive to 01-16. host: taxes and infrastructure? guest: democrats having some

success running against the tax bill from republicans and working classic -- class districts they are calling it a giveaway for the wealthy and for more upscale districts, they call it a tax increase on middle-class families because of the changes to the state and local property tax deductions. in pennsylvania, democrats have numerous opportunities to flip republican seats and the college district, six district, that is a seat democrats are likely to pick up without a fight as republicans are not competing to hold onto the open seat. there are two other republican seats democrats will likely pick up with much of a fight, fifth, 17th district were conor lamb is the favorite. the biggest fight in pennsylvania is going to be the first district, brian fitzpatrick, the republican, against scott wallace, a

democrat. that race has been extremely expensive. and very close. theme in pennsylvania, democrats likely to add more women to their ranks in pennsylvania, right now no women represent pennsylvania. 2018 could be the first year in history that americans elect more than 100 women to the house of representatives driven entirely by democrats. host: jerry in north carolina,, inocrat good morning -- north carolina, democrat good morning. caller: i have been gerrymandered into george holding's district and when they , they not read out, which -- renee

i thought was a good thing. where does george holding stand because he does nothing? my wife and i early voted next week, the second day of early --ing, and i cannot remember we voted for the democrat against holding, linda, i can't remember, i am getting old, but where does george holding -- i have seen tv ads for holding. linda, i cannot remember her name, does holding have a good chance to win again? funny, ands problematic for the democrat candidate because linda coleman, the state representative running against george holding, does not have a lot of name id and not a democrat who has raised a lot of money this cycle.

race andbeen a sleeper nobody was paying attention to it until two months ago. she has only raced a couple hundred thousand dollars and it is an expensive media market in raleigh. a large component of the second wadeict in wake county, -- county, suburban, professional, i would call 2018 the year of the fired up female college graduate, and a lot of female college graduates who are upset with president trump in wade county, north carolina, and the dangerous place for republicans in north carolina is there is not a competitive statewide balance -- the lack of a statewide race means that republicans may not have as much of a recent to turn out. areas -- rural areas stay

home, george holding could have a problem on election night but i still think he is favored. host: the caller said he voted early, we talked about early voting today, michael mcdonald of the university of florida, he said this could be an historic year when it comes to the midterm election turnout, is that your reading of the early voting numbers? guest: absolutely, early voting numbers go up every year. michael mcdonald updating this very well. enthusiastic so about voting this year that they are likely can allies -- cannibalizing a lot of the election day voting like in 2016 when the first votes came in were early votes like in florida and the democrats ran up the score but republicans did well with election day voters. i would not put too much into the early voting figures.

we are in this two weeks where everyone gets fired up but most of those figures do not mean much. host: a couple of minutes before our program ends. in springfield, tennessee, republican, good morning. caller: i want to ask about pennsylvania, conor lamb won the 18th district. recapture -- as district from pennsylvania? can you go through a list of pennsylvania seats vulnerable? guest: it is a victim of using an pennsylvania dutch it is a bit confusing in pennsylvania because of is confusing in pennsylvania because of the new new lines drawn.

conor lamb is likely to win the 17th district. in part because the district was drawn in a much more favorable to democrats than the existing district. conor lamb is leaving behind the 14th district, the most of which he currently represents and that will likely be picked up by republican. in pennsylvania, we could have a wash. so that the suburbs are a big problem for -- philadelphia suburbs are a big problem for republicans because the democrats will pick up three seats. delaware county, six district in chester county, where the democrats hold advantage, seventh district in the lehigh is -- has left and a democrat is the favorite over a former olympic cycling

gold medalist in the allentown district. the closest fight is the first district in bucks county. democrats have two additional opportunities in harrisburg district, 10th district, where the republican faces a democrat george scott. that is leading republican and mike kelly, republican company in uri, pennsylvania, -- erie, leaningania, that race, republican. host: in a few minutes, we will go to washington, d.c., a discussion today on the implications on the murder of saudi arabia and journalist and washington post columnist jamal khashoggi. we have time for one or two more calls. eric in melbourne, new jersey, democrat. caller: my question is,

democrats -- any dark horse the democratsk can flip on election day that no one is paying attention to? guest: that is a terrific question and the places i would look for upsets are the places where democrats are winning statewide races by a lot more there are not competitive statewide races at all. those are the kinds of places we saw big upset for republicans in 2010 and 2014, districts where there was nothing driving turnout or democrats were on the top of the ticket. the political environment is bad for republicans right now. democrat isre the leading the republic -- the race by double digits. kansas, where sam brownback's

legacy is dragging down republican chances. we think kevin yoder is the underdog there. virginia, virginia is a place where tim kaine is cruising to reelection. the republican nominee is not competitive statewide. arbor comstock -- barbara comstock is the underdog. the two bellwether races are the second district in virginia beach and the seventh district, which is outside of richmond who faces abigail stan berger. guest: marie's is waiting in is waiting inrice georgia. caller: you mentioned that there was a possible diminishing return in investments. we know that there are more democrats than republicans across the board, and they are not the ones trying to impose

voter suppression methods. 2021, whenatch for there is a democratic president and democrats have control of the senate and the house. they will add seats to the supreme court and start hearing these measures that have led to gerrymandering and voter suppression methods that have been imposed. there are a lot of complex issues that the caller raised. fundamentally, the democrat long-term outlook in the senate is pretty poor considering that donald trump carried 60 of the 100 senate seats despite losing the popular vote. with thesure i agree caller on the likelihood of court packing in the next couple of years. a very thorny issue in georgia related to the state's knew exact match voter

law. that has created a lot of problems and a back log of who brian camp -- kemp has not yet validated or put on the rolls. that has got democrats up in arms for good reasons. host: david >> anthony scaramucci on his new book o.
