i was a young man sitting there. guilty. guilty of first degree murder and then turned around and give me the death sentence. you deserve death. you don't come into someone's home with a weapon and they are asleep. i'm 64 now. and it just makes so much sense to me today that after 30 years of being confined and living in a therapeutic community, some parts it was a juggle. i made it through. and there is a purpose for my story to be out here. >> james allen junior on

c-span's queu and a. we are aske question this morning, do you think your candidate will win? tell us why or why not. let's start with elaine caller: in st. louis. thank you, mimi. i also want to take this chance to say thank you to c-span for the opportunity. i definitely think that miss harris will win the election. she is fair and honest. i think it is reasonable that people change their opinion. we are supposed to grow as people. changing your opinion is a way of life. as an older adult, retired, i took to heart michelle obama's

statement, do something. i went down to the board of elections here in st. louis. you can secure your voter registration card, so that i can register my neighbors. i go to my community. i always have a card with me when i'm out and about. i share my opinions in a respectful manner to try to convince others to do so. oh then i earmark, from my pension, $100 a month to give. but i am so upset that there is so much money needed to run for these elections. you give once and then they bombard you with, with emails.

text messages. give, give, give. it's disgusting. i hope that when democrats go back in, we go back in and make changes. we need to add people to the supreme court, just to be fair and honest. and we need to get rid of the electoral college. host: all right. here's joe, republican, georgia. caller: i'm very fired up with donald trump, he'll be elected on the biggest landslide in history. i'm calling a lot of shows like yours. i'm down here in georgia working for trump. he'll win, he'll be the greatest president for the economy in history and we are getting everybody fired up where i live. i think it's going to be a landslide for donald john trump.

i predict the stock market will break every record in history with donald john trump. i'm so fired up and i predict he will win in a huge landslide. host: how are you working for him? how are you getting the boat out? caller: i'm the number one caller of talkshows in the country, calling yours today, i'm planning to call all of them and tell them that i strongly support trump. i'm doing a lot of national talk shows, calling in and saying vote for donald john trump, he's the best president in history for the stock market and the economy. host: your state is a swing state. you are there in georgia talking to your friends and neighbors? caller: i'm having a hard time sleeping, i'm so fired up. i love your network. i've been calling c-span for at least 30 years, y'all do a great

job and i appreciate you so much let me view my can -- conservative views across the great nation. host: all right, joe. let's talk to todd, next. california, independent. caller: good morning. host: what do you think? caller: i'm voting for trump, but i don't think he's going to win. i think the media has done a very good job of disguising harris' viewpoints as mainstream. i think a lot of people unfortunately are going to fall for that. i hope trump is going to win, but i think he's not going to. he keeps making unnecessary inflammatory statements, you know, such as the claim about haitians eating pets, which hasn't been verified. or he will talk about harris'

race and call her a communist. if you would just stick to immigration and the economy and stop making inflammatory statements, i think he would win. host: tell us why you are a donald trump supporter, why do you want to vote for him? caller: because of the illegal criminals and drugs coming in and killing americans. also, he's going to get inflation down. he is pro-fossil fuels. if we drill for oil and export oil, that means the manufacturers are paying less to transport goods and services, meaning the prices on everything will come down. host: all right. daniel is next. democratic line, good morning. caller: [indiscernible]

concerned that harris will not win, primarily because you are looking at specifically the gen z vote. i think there is a lot of excitement and enthusiasm coming out of that demographic, but i think that getting them to go to the polls and vote is a whole different aspect of the campaign. i don't think they will do that well enough. host: daniel, are you gen z? caller: i'm a little bit past it, i'm 29 now. but if you look at the taylor swift endorsements, hopefully that helps, but i mean you have to remember, there were a lot of people on the right trying to trick gen z voters.

we saw them sending out texts claiming you could vote for clinton, hillary clinton just by texting a vote to the number and it was a scam. they estimated that several thousand
