portion of those 36000000 eligible latino votes. this either focuses do traditionally lead democratic poll showed donald trump gaming support in this key demographic. so with the race for the presidency so tied to convey and him a 2nd to i'm feel go invalid and this is the day the i cannot emphasize more strongly. the latino vote in this election is very important. democratic party. forgotten about latinos, apollo that were actually leading with hispanics as never happened. conservative values are the same as hispanic now in dod family country, we know donald trump and how he talks about immigration problems.

he always ends up humiliating with tonight. when he makes things up and says he's going to the ports us back. i know we are the ones who will decide also on the day crucial elections in georgia. the former soviet republics down to the cross roads deciding whether to strikeouts towards the autopay and union or state cosy with the crime, the retirement welcome to the day, the most recent opinion polls show almost no difference in support. so the 2 main candidates initiates us election. we both on track to get around 48 percent of the vote. so it's going to be decided in the swing states, some of which contain latino populations whose influence is large and growing. one

reason pulse shows the tina versus more likely to favor democratic presidential candidate, couple of hours was pulling at about 57 percent amongst them while they had a republican. donald trump, a 39 percent. but that's improved figured out for him. and mr. trump is gain ground with this k demographic since 2020, the roughly 36000000 people with latino heritage eligible to vote in the us making up around 5015 percent of the of that to us. but many have migration in the background. some are supporting donald trump anti migrant message. my that study as an immigration attorney living in miami. she was born in the dominican republic move to the us in the 90s. she supports donald trump district immigration policies and doesn't see a contradiction with what the controversy comes from integration our journey is that one who will be taking o,

taking phone calls from overseas to have somebody come to the united states? any call me? so at that point, that's not an immigration attorney, that's just a quote you on it. okay, got it. if you're going with the title, with the clients and in her last them office, the attorney also opened the support. so candidate, however, might have rejects categorizing voters based on the backgrounds as a lawyer. she believes that the one second does trudy decisive. they look like all of that is no, not the no vote ladies americans vote in and that this american melting pot, they were latino thought avoiding the blacks that a boy women that have way, there is no vote that have to be it put it in some sort of a box on the other side of the country, close to san francisco list. i mean the session. she left mexico with a family 50 years ago to start a new life in the us. from when you had where, cuz to winery own us,

the session i've had many accomplished what many immigrants homework unable to, despite to have what, that's why inflation living costs or health care and port, and for many latinos. despite the political division, amelia sheriff's, myra few voting isn't about heritage. we all want to see thing for our families, that they're safe, their shelter. they have no food and access to an education. we all of us universally once. once a year, during the hispanic heritage months, the session so many organized as a wine says to celebrate their culture and share it with others next again. but i feel like home in my adult, this country and i've embrace everything that is really wonderful about the culture embracing to conscious of feeling that many latinos in the united states can relate to without result was produced by benjamin alvarado, his group,

who joins us now. from washington a welcome pen vote. as we saw annual report down play the importance of van maxine, a heritage. and that puts political decision making but all the issues that are common to this slice of the of extra that's right. there is no latino both are, all a team is voting. that's a sentence that we've heard over and over again, producing this documentary, it is that adverse and also a growing community. you said 36000000 latino to eligible it to vote this. you have 4000000 more. and then during the last presidential election in 2020. and if we look at the recent polls as one by few research centers showing that 85 percent, so a vast majority of latino voters say that the economy is very important. it to the vote, followed by health care violence, a violent crime, gun policy, and also immigration. but we see definitely and how the voters who supports donald

trump of voters to support couple of harris have different at priorities. well, those supporting donald trump say that immigration is one of the most important issues for those. supporting harris is not one of the 3 top issues. so we see indeed that many of these topics are important for them, regardless of where they vote for economies. very input, but they migration is more important for those is supporting donald trump. reports uh, featured people who've corrected successful lives that in the us, what did you learn about the political leanings of latino voters from less well off backgrounds? so latino voters who have rate they, their own economic condition is only fair or poor split actually between both candidates. but this pull also shows that harris has an overwhelming is support among the voters who read their own economic condition is excellent or good. and it's important talking about migration, and that's something also that we heard it during the report and producing the

report. because that's quite remarkable and quite interesting because, and we hear this inflammatory breast of where you, when it comes to migration here in the us. but there was also a recent poll by the new york times and the sienna college, the found it majority of latino, including those who were not born in this country, and don't feel insulted by donald trump's and time immigrant breast of rick, 2 sides of those. there was of it said that they believe he was not referring to them. actually when he spoke about immigrants, because many don't see themselves regardless of it's if, if it's the 2nd or 3rd generation not reflected in an immigrant story, but simply see themselves as americans. and that is definitely something that we should consider when talking about latinos. and when talking about the data, so came from mexico from is to load and from the doors and made it into the us and also support now for example building and they will between the us and the mexico board. okay, so how the 2 campaigns trying to make themselves attractive to latino voters?

so that's a very fast and important step. acknowledging that this group is not a monolith. so speaking to them in spanish or just addressing certain topics, we'll not secure that vote. that's also what an expert in miami told us, so they're trying to secure their values. speaking about matters to not only matter to latino voters, price of food, consumer goods, the cost of housing, health insurance. but also speaking about migration a couple of weeks ago here in dc campbell, i heard spoke at a congressional hispanic caucus institute and she said, and i quote, we can do both create an un pathway to citizenship and ensure a border is, is secured and put on from the picture is totally different. he said, he accused hers of not having a plan to secure the voter. and he said, and i quote, she would have never have to open the border in the 1st place. if she had this plan, keep calling her and accusing have being an open board,

a radical and of course some latino voters. i'm more appealed for the 1st sense on talk to health migration and others more for the 2nd one. when it comes to that decision on who they want to see in the white house in january of next year. and if we look at the most contentious in this demographic, is there any gen the difference between them? there is a slight difference when we look at what man let you know, man of voting and we'll let you know. women of voting is slight difference at more latino men are appealed by the way that, that donald trump speaks. and also when we look at the rallies, and those who attend was always a far more at men and let you know men who are interested by, by the way, that he speaks. but it's not a really strong, strong difference that, but it's important it to say that many of them look at other topics that also are of interest for, for americans. but that's something really across the board. so everyone that we

spoke to him, we awesome. do you think there is to let you know more than they say there is, i'll let you know. there is an american vote and then i'll let you know issues about the are american issues, even though there's some issues that impact more latino. so they said that they one of the most important topic, regardless of their opinion is and that economy. and that's a sort of cost of hands in on the mind of many americans ahead of the presidential election thinks about brent dw is at benjamin alvarez group in washington dc. the wall street journal is reporting that vladimir putin on e, long must copying in regular secret contact since 2022. the paper claims that russian president discussed personal and political matters with a space expand. it also claims that russian president asked mr. must not still active at the styling, satellite internet service of a tie, one as a favor to chinese leaders, asian pain. and the company denies the reports coming spokesman to meet your pest

golf, said the president and the ability to have only spoken once. and that was before 2022 pushed near to we need to contact off to that a loan mosque had noticed the contacts we put in show tuesday and then and all statements to that effect the falls. it may have brought the leaves of probably just more on through it's told as the political battle intensifies. i hate of the election pretty just the election rises into the final stages now. and of course, the 2 opponents weren't shy away from anything that you remember last week that we're talking about have letting me foods and allegedly towards with donald trump all day long. so i mean, i me a couple of them now. it said he talks with the loan must goals of time. none of this is true. it's all untrue. a big white house i guess released by the us federal election commission show that

a loan mosque support for donald trump's election bid. accelerating must go $44000000.00 to his approach from america political action committee and the 1st half of october, a load bringing his total donations to the group to $190000000.00. as part of his plan to back the republican presidential candidates, must america pack kinda be giving away a $1000000.00 a day to voters randomly selected from the battleground states just if they've signed that petition. 5 of gun rights and free speech report, st. us justice department has won america pack the practice may violate the federal law. must have these defense prepare every day, every day from now until the election. we're giving out a $1000000.00 prize. that is an all you have to do assign a petition and support of the constitution it's, it's very straightforward. you don't even have to vote. you don't have to vote. you

just have to sign a petition saying, you believe in the constitution, which if you already believe in the constitution, you're just signing something, you're ready to leave. and if you want a $1000000.00, that's awesome. well beneficial is deputy executive director of the investigative watchdog on journalism project, documented he's also a lawyer with expertise and campaign finance and government transparency. welcome to d. w. and where are you on this $1000000.00 a day battleground state lottery? is it legal? it's not legal. and mr must left out in important detail in that description. so if all mosque was doing was giving $1000000.00 were making voters eligible for $1000000.00 just by signing a petition. there would be no legal problem. the problem is that the law prohibits any person from paying anybody to vote or to register to vote. and the eligibility for these $1000000.00 payments for

a $100.00 pay out is conditional on a person being registered to vote. you have to show that you're registered to vote in order to be eligible for the $100.00 pay out. and the entry into the $1000000.00 lottery. and that's what renders this uh, this plan. okay, so the, the us just as above, as his reports and the warrant mr. must against this practice. are they likely to move against this close to election day? i wouldn't be surprised if the justice department takes any takes any action before election day. they may take action after the election day, and it's actually not uncommon for the justice department to send out these kinds of letters. it seems like every election cycle you see, you see versions of this, but on a much smaller scale, usually from organizations that unwittingly bind themselves violated loss. so a classic example is been in chairs the ice cream company. they were offering free ice cream to anybody who came into uh,

one of the stores on election day with an i voted sticker. and the, and it was, it was, it was bonded that was very likely unlawful because your eligibility for the freeze, the ice cream was conditional honey. i'm showing proof of having voted. so ben and jerry changed the program to make everybody eligible for one of the preschool by scream, hot election day, regardless of whether you show proof of having bought it or not. so you know, what must motzkin has america back? couldn't do is just loosen the parameters a little bit for this program and they would escape any kind of just department scrutiny. but it appears that they're not doing so and they're forcing ahead with what is very likely and unlawful plan. and then whether, whether any i horseman actions taken after election day may just depend on who wins rights. whereas physically, if it's trump wednesday, so just goes away. is there any difference between a lot of musk pumping billions into the trump campaign on the harris compact and

getting showered with millions from that biggest an individual donor a michael bloomberg too. well, it's certainly true bad billionaires, a corporations and welding special interests are pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into us election bill cycle and that money is benefiting both democrats and republicans. and the problem is that regardless of who wins in november of the next president is going to be accountable to the billionaires and corporations and well, these special interests that help them get elected. one difference with must, is that he has a lot to gain from a trump presidency of his companies get hundreds of millions of dollars in federal contracts. they're heavily regulated by the federal government and most personally could stand to lose a loss under a different tax structure. so must be investing $100000000.00 plus into this election. could be a pretty good investment with

a much more substantial pay off it. trump with do use of was that is, is, is interesting and sort of changes the way you think about that, that these political donations are investments in the outcome and investments in your business. that's often the case. you're certainly donors give for a variety of reasons. it may be for personal reasons, that may be more ideological reasons and maybe for patriotic reasons or some mix of all of the above. but some also do for um, for business reasons, to advance their own business interests for their personal financial interests. and you must, in particular, has substantial financial interest at stake. again, the selection, the to test, the biggest organization. the nice thing to both sides is a crypto currency from clean base. just how far removed these donors from individual americans or yeah, that is another big story line,

this election cycle, the amount of crypto money pouring into, importing into the elections. and that's one way or the motivations are less murphy . the crypto industry has been very clear that they are requiring a lot of money into collections in order to in order to advance their interest in order to advance crypto friendly policies and to elect candidates that are going to support their industry and to to be candidates that don't support it, that that, that they believe do not support their industry. and if it does seem like it's having a real, a real impact both in terms of who gets elected. but also in terms of the, the willingness of sitting lawmakers to take a more aggressive position i crypto because they were afraid of crypto money coming coming up against them in their election. so i think the 3rd of the amount of crypto money flowing into this election, i'm in support of support of an opposition to both democrats and republicans. you

always an indication of just how broken our campaign finance system is it? it appears we're on track for the crypto industry to by industry friendly regulation and industry friendly oversight, just simply by virtue of the amount of money that they're willing to work into our system. ok, science until it goes through that. so clearly brendan fisher of the investigative watchdog and john is in project documented. thank you. thank you. of the georgia, the black sea country, rather than the us states, is preparing to hold an election that will pay to coalition of pro europe policies against the government that is seen as leaning towards russia. opinion polls indicate most georgians are in favor of joining the you. for george's name, russia has traditionally had a lot of influence over the country. in recent years, the governing the georgia dream party has been pursuing policies that put it at loggerheads with brussels, a correspondent,

but it kind of match. so has this ahead of the parliamentary elections. the companion grace is in full swing. the ruling george engine party holds the campaign valley in the town or for stubby just south of the capital to bbc. the party found or bits in avenue spieler, a building now and considered the most powerful man in the country. as the elections are a choice between rules and peace, the previous government is responsible for the tragic war between georgia and russia in 2008. the national movement party started the war on instructions from abroad. i guarantee if you support us in the october elections, nobody will be able to drag georgia into ward the ruling party selection campaigns, features, images of devastated ukrainian, towns constructed with images of a prosperous, georgia. the clear message, the same could happen to georgia if the pro european or position winds the

elections. critics say the government is increasingly tilting towards moscow and even it's really from south as load to bad for you appear in a position if georgia dream is real, that these yeah, of to the government introduced what is known is it for an agent to move the country was plunged into months long for you protest little requires groups that receive funds from abroad to register with this or this is tony inside. it was inspired by assuming below that the kremlin has used to silence political voices. but despite it's carmen to poor relations with european union, the ruling government insist georgia will join the use the potty, i'm blame with a use task evidently in this convincing supporters always on track this party leading you to europe. yes, it is leading us that despite the fact that brussels has present georgia's you integration having no one can stop this,

believe me opposing georgia dream are a number of parties largely divided. one of the positions, policies is led by georgia. korea is set as prime minister for georgia dream from 2019. i think he's resignation in 2021. but today he's complaining against his former colleagues and on the progress of face cleared on my screen when the government is using the fear of a war to achieve their electoral goals, to get more votes and black males and frightens at citizens. which more. this shows its weakness and it's real face between yeah, i'm trying to, our goal is to return georgia to with european path. i mean, we will do it piece from what she would need because even she to be in the, in the, the ruling party has been in power for

the last 12 years. and poll show each remains in the lead, but their position parties do hope they can deprive georgia dream of the majority to form a coalition government in its place. to adjust future is very much at the crossroads in this election. we'll go straight to the georgia and capital to please see where we find the correspondent unit vicious. are welcome. yours is basically election being framed as a referendum on the idea of georgia one day joining the you will feel, i think the who of instance will definitely be an election for you wrote at 80 percent of childrens has been voting in favor for the countries. membership ended up being a union in all service for years in the part is know this, which is why they all come painting for you to both is enrolled in the georgia dream policy. and the opposition is easy. the only difference is that 0 and paul to says yes to the you, but on does their own conditions which i anything but europe in the last 2 years of

prove that and in that sense yes, to model selection could be a kind of easier referendum. yes. okay, now on that point, the polls show that more than 80 percent of a georgians do want to join the but as we had in the before brussels, holton accession tools after that building georgia, dream pa, to introduce the so called foreign agent. no, they see it. despite this, the government, the georgia dream profit is still popular. can you explain this? well, look, is it all in georgia? dream thought to is also pro europe on paper and yeah, it was even respond to that adopted e u membership as a goal in the constitution 2018. so 5 years ago. but many people are now asking themselves, okay, if you are in the you, what does it mean in practice life? we want to make the life more expensive. how dependent will georgia still be? what about protection on minorities, including sexual minorities? many judges are religious and conservative. and what about for the ruling party

speaks on the alleged global war party and threatens it is a position to bins. there will be one here in georgia tomorrow. as you're supposed to, into lacy about was that i, you can follow my team on social media at that dw news site is headlines. of course . um the website the www dot com or on the, the jump from the team on today. uh, thanks for watching. have a good day, have a great weekend, the,
