growth came out this morning strong. cheryl: another reason. john creswell, thank you very much, looks like the s&p and nasdaq will hit new records but barely. kind of a pull-back. losing steam in the final moments of trading. always something exciting on fox business. the dow fighting for gains, ending the day up 17, a little higher, 17 points. the s&p 500 also battling to close in the green but the nasdaq is getting it done, closing at a new record high for the third trading day in a row. >> still need to get used to that 8,000 number on the nasdaq. glad you could join us. here's what else we are covering for you. what an hour we have for you today. a new trade deal or new trade tariffs. canada coming to the table in response to president trump's

ultimatum. the canadian foreign minister heading to d.c. this afternoon to try to hammer out some kind of deal like mexico has before friday. the latest on where things stand right now. plus, justice department official bruce ohr is on the hot seat on capitol hill. lawmakers grilling ohr behind closed doors over his connections with christopher steele. you might remember, that's the former british spy that's behind the infamous anti-trump dossier. what we now know. it's down to the wire for key primaries tonight as president trump's influence is being tested once again. voters are flocking to the polls in florida and arizona, with just a few short hours agriculturto go. we are live for what could be the most contentious primary of those we have seen so far. >> we want to head back to the markets. it's a big day. the dow is up 15 points, the dow turning negative in the final hour of trading but managing to close in the green. we have nicole petallides on the

floor of the stock exchange, new york stock exchange, right now. what do we know? why do we see that switch towards the end? reporter: we are seeing that back and forth action. there is that over the unchanged line. the feeling is we have gotten great earnings thus far. in fact, 24.8% year over year growth in earnings which exceeded analysts' expectations. we have a great consumer confidence number and meantime, record highs across the board. let me be more specific. the dow, not a record. it came out of correction territory but the s&p and nasdaq, record there and also, the russell, a record close. check out the intraday from yesterday. record number there, less for the small caps. technology and also financials and health care helped hold us in the green in the back half of trading. you can see apple and amazon, you can go ahead and cheer. we have records there for those two big tech favorites. also, sears and amazon. sears got a nice pop today.

it was something they tried out with amazon. you can't beat them, got to join them. people buy their tires on amazon and then go to the sears auto center and have them balanced, have them installed on their cars, and they started this off as somewhat of a pilot program, 47 sears centers. it went up to 118 and now they have announced it's going nationwide because of the popularity. look at the pop in sears stock today, over 12% gains. i mentioned consumer confidence. this what is we have seen in the earnings and retailers. people are going in, actually more traffic, more demand and when they go in, they spend more. this is coming off our conference board, the number of consumer confidence unexpectedly rose in august. it rose to nearly an 18-year high. that continues to bring optimism to the market. you put this all together and traders are talking about you start to break out and move higher, that that will continue going into christmas time. a quick look at one of the retailers, just showing the demand, and that is dsw,

designer shoe warehouse. 20% to the upside. that's some good news there. stellar numbers and outlook. back to you. >> are you a fan? reporter: i haven't been there really. i can see everybody is running there. >> thank you for the breakdown. we also have canada. canada is coming to the table. we know canadian foreign affairs minister krystia freeland is flying in from germany to resume talks with u.s. trade officials. this is just a day after president trump threatened to slap tariffs on canadian auto imports. that's if canada opts not to join the agreement he made with mexico. we have edward lawrence who has been following the back and forth throughout the past several days and he joins us live from washington. edward, do you have any signs that maybe canada will be on board? what do we know? >> i can tell you the mexican delegation believes financially, they believe canada has to sign

on to this deal. those talks start today. as you said, the mexican minister or canadian minister will be here in washington, d.c. to start those talks. in an exclusive interview, the man on the mexican side who negotiated this deal, the mexican economy minister, told me it's time for canada to sign. >> remember every time, even the first time of prime minister trudeau to washington, the message was it is going to be very easy to solve relationship with canada. guess what, good news for canada. we have solved the first part of this equation. now we need to solve the second part. reporter: when it looked like canada was not going to negotiate with the u.s. several weeks ago, in fact, five or six weeks ago, the u.s. focused on mexico to try to get that part of the deal done. my sources have said they will take that joint mexican and american deal and present it to

canada, see if they want to sign on or not. the president has said he's fine with bilateral deals. >> canadians really ought to look at what the u.s. and mexico just completed. as an example of what can be done if there's good faith negotiating and a willingness to compromise in the interest of both parties. reporter: the mexican delegation is sticking around this week to make sure there's a smooth transition to have canada join these talks. the mexican economy minister says this agreement can stand on its own but again, they would like to see canada come on board to revive and revisit that nafta agreement. back to you. >> great job getting that exclusive tv interview with the mexican economy minister. thank you. david: here to react is lenore hawki hawkins, and james freeman, fox

news contributor. today the "wall street journal" had a harsh editorial on the trade deal called "half a nafta." lot of people saw that as a slap-back but not so larry kudlow. take a listen. >> my good friends at the "wall street journal," i think for them, on a trump-adjusted basis that was a pretty favorable editorial. what can i say? david: trump-adjusted basis. i love that new measure from larry. what do you think? >> look, we did point out that u.s.biologic do get patent protection under this deal. a lot of this is not a win for consumers, for trade, but i'm optimistic that canada will come on board. i think they have every reason to. obviously, you would have to say they have less leverage than they did couple days ago, before mexico and the u.s. said we are willing to go it alone. david: of course, even if canada

does get on board, then it goes to congress. they have 90 days to mess with it. they have messed with a lot of stuff. >> don't forget that we have midterm elections coming up. if this is anything like history, it wouldn't be a surprise to see the power swing back over to the democrats. that's kind of what normally happens in the first midterm after a sweep. those democrats may just not want to sign this one. they may not want to agree to it. like you said earlier, i'm a little concerned with what this is going to do for the consumer because we haven't seen wages really grow significantly. what a lot of this new trade terms are going to do is increase the price of things that consumers buy. david: absolutely. no question we will be paying more. one quick question i have on whether the democrats could be on board. there was some talk about sherrod brown, the democratic senator, working with the administration on the trade deal. you know anything about that? >> this is one of the reasons i think this is not a great deal, because it is going to raise

costs at the margin on auto consumers. you are talking about higher wages in mexico and more manufactured -- more parts coming from north america. i think it's actually going to be hard for a liberal like sherrod brown to say no to this given what he's advocated. you wouldn't want to rely on him to pass it. david: stick around. we got more for you coming up. after eight years of gains, car sales are stalling. jeff flock is live outside an auto dealership in naperville, illinois. you have actually been there all day, haven't you? have you seen any cars go off the lot as sold cars? reporter: oh, all the time. yeah. auto sales in the u.s. have held pretty strong but the winds have changed, blowing not just through my hair, but through the global auto industry. take a look. this is the cadillac dealership, by the way, in naperville. you can see the sign. kyle, show the sign. they are hiring out here, still hiring. that's a good sign. but the story on the other side

of the world, not so bright. in china, in july, global sales there down 5.5%. this had been a hugely growing market and you know, you could argue perhaps the trade situation has had some impact on the sales in china. look at the stocks of our big automakers, ford and gm. ford one year down 8%, gm up 6%. lot of reasons for that but i submit to you that china sales in q2, ford, a big drop-off of sales in china, down almost by a third. gm, kind of flat. of course, gm sells a whole lot of cars in china more famously than it sells in the u.s. overall global growth for the auto industry, in the u.s., as i said, car sales pretty firm but still not growing like they were. we had seven straight years and i don't think we have that anymore. global growth which had been almost 5% just two years ago now projected to be less than 2%.

autos led the recovery. it's possible they are going to, you know, at some point, the golden goose stops laying cadillac escalades which you see there live in the chicago suburbs. >> jeff, thank you very much. your hair does look great. let's bring the panel right back. lenore, jeff alluded to the fact you see strong global car sales and when they start to decrease it's usually a sign of bad things to come. do you think this is just a bump in the road or potentially something much worse, especially with all the trade talk and trade fears? >> when i look at what i think is driving this, that's my cause for concern. both in the u.s. and outside, you have two major head winds. you have demographics and debt. the demographics, you have an aging population with the average baby boomer, 64 years old and moving into retirement. they aren't going to be buying cars as much. they will more be maintaining. you have the same kind of thing happening outside the u.s. when you look at debt, well, we

have got $1.5 trillion in student loans and there's 46 million people with student loans and 20% of those owe $100,000 or more. that's another head wind. millenials have student debt, are less interested in earning a car, more interested in using uber. we see similar dynamics happening outside the u.s. >> i feel like you are speaking right to me because i use a bicycle to get around new york city. james, i want to turn to you right now and talk about potential markets to offset this. could we see potential gains or growth in, say, africa? >> it's a depressing picture in north america. also, interest rates on the rise so not normally seen as a big boon to auto sales, which a lot of people obviously finance them. yeah, i think this might be a message to the white house that they need to get to it. lowering barriers around the world. lot of growth for a lot of these u.s. companies needs to come from overseas. >> i guess we will end on that note. thank you very much.

david: zero tariffs. the president says he wants. i think a lot of people. that is the perfect solution. may not happen but wouldn't it be nice. we can dream. meanwhile, grilled behind closed doors. lawmakers demanding answers from justice department official bruce ohr over his connection to christopher steele, the former british spy behind the infamous anti-trump dossier. what we now know. >> high stakes for primaries under way right now in arizona and florida, where president trump's influence is being tested once again. the polls close in a few short hours and we are live in phoenix and miami for more on these highly contested races. david: treading on troubled territory. the president railing against google all day today, saying the company's rigging search results against him. we are live at the white house coming next. >> i think what google and what others are doing, if you look at what's going on with twitter, if you look at what's going on with facebook, they better be careful because you can't do that to people. insurance that won't replace

results for trump news shows only the viewing reporting of fake news media. in other words, they have it rigged for me and others so that almost all stories and news is bad. there is more but let's go to tweet two, because the president ended that tweet by saying quote, they are controlling what we can and cannot see. this is a very serious situation. will be addressed, wrote the president this morning. then fast-forward to later this afternoon. the president responding to questions about that in the oval office, continued to be critical of google but also as well, facebook and twitter. watch here. >> i think google is really taking advantage of a lot of people and i think that's a very serious thing and it's a very serious charge. i think that google and twitter and facebook, they're really treading on very very troubled territory and they have to be careful. it's not fair to large portions of the population. reporter: spoke with the president's top economic adviser, larry kudlow, after the first set of tweets early this morning.

kudlow did not shy away from the possibility of this administration or potentially even the president or folks in between, he didn't shy away from the possibility of regulations heading google's way. watch here. does the president believe or does the administration feel there needs to be some sort of regulation for google? what exactly was the president referring to? >> we will let you know. we're taking a look at it. we'll let you know. reporter: we are taking a look at it, larry kudlow said. by the way, google denies there was any involvement whatsoever between search results and possible political bias. this was a statement that a company spokesperson produced earlier today, saying quote, search is not used to set a political agenda and we don't bias our results toward any political ideology. they go on to write we continually work to improve google search and we never rank search results to manipulate political sentiment. back to you. kristina: wow. wow. government regulation in big tech. that's big. thank you very much. david: how would that work? we don't know where it would

begin. with reaction is fox news political analyst, giano carlo. let's talk about bias and google. have you noticed it? >> i would say i have not noticed it at google but across social media, i tell you there was a poll that came out recently which said 72% of americans believed that there is censoring going on when it comes to social media, almost half of those being republicans. we talked about this on a number of occasions. i said on this very show i believe there needed to be some regulation and i know we don't like to regulate businesses -- social media companies, we begin to treat them like they're too big to fail. social media companies feel like they are too big to tame. when we have an environment where so much information is built into how we run campaigns, how we live our lives, how we

talk about our daily stories, when there's a manipulation going on by these young executives who are extremely liberal to bias -- david: hold on a second. who will be doing the regulating? it will be people, what some folks call the deep state. you really trust bureaucrats in government to do censoring of editorial material? i don't. i think there is bias at google. i have a friend who is writing a book, he's a skeptic of climate change, and he's writing a book and has noticed as they change the algorithms over the past year and a half he's definitely noticed a change in the editorial bias that google has in terms of coming up with material that does present the other side of climate change. i think there's bias but i don't think there's anybody in government who could regulate that bias. go ahead. >> here's the point.

you used the "r" word to get these guys in shape that if they make commitments and fail in their commitments, we heard about it in congressional hearings, we will get back to diamond and silk and we didn't know all this was going on, and we had i guess on "fox & friends" they said did they get in touch with you? no, no one got in touch with us. david: but there is competition. you and i believe in competition. competition is a much better way of dealing or regulating an information organization than some kind of censorship, particularly when it's done by people who will be more biased than google. >> that's again, fair, david. however, these guys are very big and it will be hard to compete with that market, especially when we have our own government institutions using these same, like president trump -- david: i got one word for you. one word for you. that word is bing. bing is a competitor to google. it's a microsoft competitor to google.

there can be other competitors to bing, if bing doesn't work out too well. the point is, this is a big market. yes, there are monsters out there like google and facebook and twitter, no doubt. i don't disagree with you. but the monsters in the bureaucracy i would put to you are much worse. go ahead. final word. >> well, the big monster is the "r" word, regulation. that word needs to be used, perhaps it doesn't have to be implemented but they need to change and they need to change now because at this point, we can't take them for granted. their bias can literally allow for democrats to win elections. we can't have that. david: not at all. what we can't have is censorship. i think there's bias out there. plenty of it. i see it in twitter, i see it in facebook but there's got to be an answer in the competitive market as opposed to an answer in censorship. got to leave it there. my friend, i love talking to you. take care of yourself. thank you very much.

kristina: a permanent good-bye. john goodman is breaking his silence on the firing of his former co-star, roseanne barr. plus potentially making progress on trade. the white house touting the president's new agreement with mexico. do we think canada is going to jump on board? we'll find out. >> usa and mexico have generated again, strong deals, free trade deals, pro growth deal, as an example. ron! something's going on at schwab. oh really? thank you clients? well jd power did just rank them highest in investor satisfaction with full service brokerage firms...again. and online equity trades are only $4.95... i mean you can't have low cost and be full service. it's impossible. it's like having your cake and eating it too. ask your broker if they offer award-winning full service and low costs. how am i going to explain this? if you don't like their answer, ask again at schwab.

kristina: canadian prime minister justin trudeau commenting on the ongoing trade talks in washington today, saying he looks forward to signing a deal as long as it's good for canadians. these comments echo white house economic adviser larry kudlow's thoughts on what the president hopes to gain.

>> he would love to make a deal with canada, a good deal, a deal which is in the interest of the american economy, the american work force, american farmers, and presumably, as we did in mexico, a deal that works for both sides. a pro-growth deal. a free trade deal. kristina: joining me now to discuss this is scottie greenwood, canadian american business council ceo. welcome. this is your first time on fox. >> first time in awhile. kristina: i want to get to it with prime minister trudeau. he made a comment recently saying his position on supply management has not changed. that's been a very contentious issue. the fact dairy farmers in canada get a lot of subsidies and that could potentially hurt the agricultural space in the united states. do you think he will budge on that before signing any deal? >> well, i'm not sure. it makes sense to me that he wouldn't negotiate with himself before minister freeland gets in the room and the team gets in the room.

i think it's possible there's room to negotiate on a number of issues that might be one. you look at what canada did in the trans-pacific partnership and the european deal but i'm not predicting it. i don't know what canada will negotiate. but you know, i think there's a deal to be had. i was really pleased in the run-up to this to hear mr. kudlow saying with mexico, he was happy that mexico got a win and the u.s. got a win, because what we often hear from this administration is i win, you lose. really, trade deals are about mutually beneficial wins. hopefully we can get there. i think it's possible this week. i really do. kristina: you are quite optimistic. we have a lot of canadian media now saying no, this isn't necessarily a good deal, we don't need to jump the gun. we can go through the parliamentary process in canada. i want to bring it back to the united states and congress. do you think that congress is going to push back given the many pro-trade, free trade republicans, the fact they have 90 days, they initially said they wanted a trilateral

agreement. now these are discussions about bilateral agreements. do you think there's going to be a lot of pushback in congress? >> well, i think the pushback if it comes would be against a bilateral deal with mexico only. what we are seeing from congressional leadership, from chairman brady to chairman hatch and a lot of people in between, it's really important that the deal be trilateral. so whether they are doing that to put a little bit more emphasis on the importance of bringing canada in, supporting that idea, or whether they are trying to pressure canada to come to an agreement, i don't know. but the only push-back i would see is if we don't get a deal or get a trilateral deal. otherwise i think there will be support. this has been under way for a year, these negotiations. the president campaigned on it. republicans would love to go to the polls having filled this campaign promise. there were tax cuts, there's regulatory reform and the protectionist policies are really hurting the economy, hurting the market, so they can get rid of the protectionism, have a better deal for the united states that also happens

to benefit our neighbors, that would be good politically for republicans. i think congress, i know congress knows that. kristina: i just want to bring up one point that nobody seems to be discussing. pharma companies and the biological sclooexclusivity. can you weigh in on this? >> what we saw in the u.s./mexico deal i believe is an extension of the intellectual property protection for follow-on biologic. that's really important because innovators have to know when they come up with a life-saving cure, it will be protected before it's given away for free to other people. that's a very significant leap forward for innovation and for life-saving cures. so the fact that if it's true, what we have read that mexico and the united states have agreed to extend that patent life for ten years, that will be very important for canada to take a close look at because we know canada wants to have an

innovative economy as well. i'm glad you raised it. i hope it's raised at the table and doesn't become a hangup because really, it's in all three nations' interest to protect the innovations that can help save people's lives. kristina: great. thank you so much for joining us. i would like to point out the minister of foreign affairs from canada has landed in d.c. and should be headed to the white house within the next 45 minutes. david: good news. thank you very much. voters heading to the polls for primaries in three states today. the big races you need to watch. we are breaking down the potential impact for both parties and president trump's agenda. coming up, more republican chairman sounding off. bruce ohr behind closed doors on capitol hill, being grilled about that anti-trump dossier he was part of. we will speak about the allegations of bias at the doj.

>> i think that bruce ohr is a disgrace with his wife nellie. for him to be in the justice department and to be doing what he did, that is a disgrace. the employee of the year, anna.

david: two big stories on election meddling. one that keeps getting richer, the other that's just falling apart. so which one is the mainstream media focused on? the one that's falling apart. does that make any sense?

let's ask "washington times" opinion editor. charlie, first let's deal with the story that just keeps getting richer and that's election meddling on the part of what's called the deep state, those people who are trying to keep donald trump out of the white house. today we had bruce ohr speaking behind closed doors, he's the doj official who had a lot of relationship with a guy behind the trump dossier, christopher steele. not only through his wife, but he himself was in touch with the guy. this story keeps on getting richer, doesn't it? >> it does. in a lot of ways it keeps getting more and more appalling. this is the most appalling part of it, because of course, the time period we are dealing with now is after christopher steele has already been cut loose from the fbi, that he's no longer deemed trustworthy as a source by the fbi, so they banish him, they are taking no more information from him. then this guy bruce ohr gets sent out to continue to maintain

a relationship and that relationship remains until after donald trump not only gets elected but then gets inaugurated. so the question remains well, if the fbi had determined that christopher steele was no longer reliable, no longer trustworthy because he had these relationships and was clearly trying to affect the election through leaks to the press, then what was the fbi doing still trying to cultivate him? david: who was bruce ohr dealing with at the fbi and possibly the cia with john brennan. there's also the story, by the way, of how long he had been in touch with bruce ohr even before the investigation began. let me just talk for a moment about the story that frankly is falling apart, but the one the media is focusing on, and that's the stuff michael cohen was saying last week. there was big headlines, michael cohen says in fact trump knew in advance of the trump jr. meeting

with that russian woman, that trump knew in advance of the russian hacking. that story is completely falling apart. both of those stories. but the media is still standing by it. >> i think in a lot of ways, the media is sort of, they have amped everybody up and have gotten everybody's expectations so high, they sort of have to kind of keep some sort of -- do anything they can to keep it going. it is amazing, if you go back, you look back for the past two years, the number of times that the press has promised us some bombshell, something that is going to be revealed or has been revealed that proves the whole theory of russia collusion and rigged election, everything, and it always falls apart. this was only the 39th time it's happened in the last two years, where you have somebody like lanny davis, a political operator, going back decades here in washington, representing michael cohen, makes these spectacular claims and then has to turn right around and say

actually, none of what i just said was true. david: the extraordinary thing is that cnn which is one of the news organizations that broke that story to begin with, they are standing by the story even though the main proponent of the story, probably the main source for the story, is pulling back on it. >> by his own admission, the main source for it. yeah, i don't really get that, except that they are trying to either save face, they are trying to protect somebody, trying to cover up for somebody, but honestly i do believe that to a large degree, they want to keep this story alive because their ratings depend upon it and they have lost all credibility. if you believe in journalism, if you believe in reporting and covering politics fairly and honestly, cnn these days is a very, very depressing spectacle. david: charlie and i did not color coordinate our outfits today. it just happens that way. great minds think alike. thank you very much. good to see you.

thanks. kristina: i guess i didn't get the blue memo. that's okay. helping our heroes. how google is lending a hand to veterans across the country. ♪ as moms, we send our kids out into the world, full of hope. and we don't want something like meningitis b getting in their way. meningococcal group b disease, or meningitis b, is real. bexsero is a vaccine to help prevent meningitis b in 10-25 year olds. even if meningitis b is uncommon, that's not a chance we're willing to take. meningitis b is different from the meningitis most teens were probably vaccinated against when younger. we're getting the word out against meningitis b. our teens are getting bexsero. bexsero should not be given if you had a severe allergic reaction after a previous dose. most common side effects are pain, redness or hardness at the injection site; muscle pain; fatigue; headache; nausea; and joint pain.

kristina: helping our heroes. google announcing a new special search for america's veterans. gerri willis has the details. reporter: hey, that's right, google and the uso teaming up to help veterans land that critical first job out of the military. one in three vets say they experience underemployment, taking jobs below their skill level. google for jobs cofounder described the problem this way earlier today on fbn. >> oftentimes we see that veterans are speaking a slightly different language while in the military about what they do and what responsibilities they have,

then the businesses that are looking for veterans with those kinds of skills. reporter: so to solve that problem, veterans can enter their four-digit military occupation code right into the google search field with the words "jobs for veterans" to be matched with opportunities that they be appropriate for. vets can also search by city, by state. google also helping veterans owned and led businesses identify themselves to potential customers on google maps and google search. so cool. look for the veteran-led designation when searching for a business or a place. finally, there are three parts. the third part, finally google giving the uso a $2.5 million grant. not a lot of money, but critical. it will help provide training and career guidance for transitioning service members and military spouses. this will allow the uso to incorporate google's training certification for tech jobs into their programming so good news

for vets out there. i don't have to tell you there's some 250,000 vets going into the economy, trying to get jobs each and every year. lots of folks looking for these jobs. back to you. kristina: i do hope that grant comes into effect as soon as possible. thank you very much, gerri. david: i wish they would get more than $2.5 million. that's pocket change for those guys. pony up. voters heading to the polls right now. high stakes primaries in arizona and florida today. many of the matchups are another big test to president trump's popularity. we are live next on the ground in phoenix. also, the florida gop chair sounding off on the key issues for voters in the sunshine state. what it means for the republican agenda ahead of the midterms, coming up.

david: another test of president trump's influence. it's decision time in three states as voters head to the polls today to select their nominees for the november midterm elections. hillary vaughn is in phoenix with the latest details on the big races in arizona. hi, hillary. reporter: hey, david. three gop candidates gunning to take republican jeff flake's senate seat in november are making it clear to voters they are nothing like him. senator flake this morning chiming in on capitol hill, counting out two of the three candidates, saying that the front-runner, representative martha mcsally, is the gop's only hope to keep the seat, but mcsally when asked today if she thinks flake has done a good job, tried to distance herself from her colleague in congress. >> arizona is a firewall state. if they have any chance to flip the majority, it goes through arizona. i'm the firewall to make sure that chuck schumer, elizabeth warren and bernie sanders are not in charge in the senate.

reporter: but mcsally's opponent, kelli ward, says she thinks mcsally is worse than the sitting senator, who has made himself a known critic to president trump and his policies. >> jeff flake, i'm glad to be able to get him out of the race in october. i was up by about 30 points on him at that point when he decided to retire, and lot of people across arizona are thanking me for that, and they certainly don't want to go from the frying pan into the fire with martha. reporter: this primary has been a contest in many ways to prove who will be the strongest ally for the president and who will help him get his agenda through. president trump hasn't endorsed anyone in this primary but has pardoned one of them. the controversial maricopa county sheriff, joe arpaio, was spared from spending time behind bars after charged with criminal contempt over his hard line immigration tactics, saying he says is just what the senate needs.

arpaio is polling behind ward and mcsally but thinks he has more in common with the president than just their views on immigration. >> just like president trump, when i introduced him july 2015, you are going to be our next president, we are born on the same day, and i said there is a silent majority. reporter: now, there were reports earlier this morning that several polling locations, voting machines were not starting. i just spoke inside with the director for the county election recorder and officials office. she explained what happened. she said technicians failed to show up to polling places to start the equipment. there was no issue or malfunction with the voting machines themselves. she said they are working to get all the machines up and running. they are also in the process of getting approval to open up voting centers and keep them open longer than planned so that everyone that may have not had a chance to vote this morning will have a chance to vote this evening.

but again, pushing back on the idea that there was any malfunction or nefarious intention or interference with the primary voting process today. david? david: hillary, thank you very much. kristina: now let's head to the races we were talking about in florida. we have blaise ingoglia joining us. the president is not on the ballot but his endorsements certainly are. if you look at the stats, 2 of the 37 endorsements by the president have not won in the primaries. those are some great stats. with florida, you had adam putnam who is seen as the front-runner and the president did endorse republican ron desantis. what does that say about trump's influence within the state? >> that trump is popular. trump is very popular among the base. he has historic approval ratings here in the state of florida among the base, 85%, 90%. what he says, matters to the florida primary electorate. kristina: you don't think it

could be year of the woman in florida as well, giving ground? >> look, i think it's going to be the year of the republican here in the state of florida. you know, the democrats keep on talking about this blue wave. i think what's going to happen here in the state of florida is there's going to be a little blue ripple hitting against a big red wall. we are going to stop them and we are going to win big in november. kristina: i want to touch on the blue wave because we have often talked about it. we know that democrats are really saying everybody is motivated to come to the polls. what do you think is going to happen at the turnout, voter turnout, for florida, and will that show that maybe the blue wave isn't as big as we thought or maybe there's some real enthusiasm on the republicans' side? >> yeah, actually, great question. so we are about two hours away from the polls closing here in the state of florida on the east coast and central, three hours, but what we are seeing, the data is showing there is no blue wave. before voting started today, the republicans had about a 40,000 voter turnout advantage and if the primary super voters came

out both on the republican and the democrat side, we would probably end today with about anywhere between 200,000 to 250,000 vote advantage. the reason why that is important, there has been about $111 million spent on tv for the primaries on both sides of this election. $74 million of that for the democrats. they have been pushing this and trying to get people out to the polls, and it's just not happening. they are flat, they are not enthused about their candidates and we are turning out voters to the polls and i truly believe this is going to turn over and spill over into the general election. kristina: you think the spending on television ads right now has to do with the demographic and a lot of the demographic in florida does watch tv, but i know you have weighed in on this. what do you think the effect, if any, of these negative attack ads on television? and radio? everywhere? >> well, i think the negative attack ads on the democrat side are going to have a very harmful effect, because they have a five-way primary and right now,

we are expecting gwen graham to be their nominee and she will get maybe 30% of the vote. what they have to do is consolidate the other 70% who did not vote for graham. they will have a lard time unifying their party. on our side, we will have a much easier time, because we know what's at stake. we know that we have to put a republican back in the governor's mansion because that's to set up president trump's re-election bid in 2020. kristina: thank you very much for your insight. david: we have an update to our top story. the canadian minister of foreign affairs, krystia freeland, will be arriving in washington at the trade rep's office at any moment to begin those trade talks. we will keep an eye on the situation on her arrival and bring you any comments once they are made. coming back, breaking news on roseanne. don't miss it. we'll be right back. agent beekman was one step ahead of them. because he hid his customers' gold in a different box.

>> john goodman revealing the character roseanne will be killed off in the the connors upcoming spin-off. david: the actor describing his character, i guess i will be mopey and sad because his wife's dead. ouch, ghoulish. "the evening edit" starts right now. >> he would love to make a deal with canada, a good deal. a deal in the interest of the american economy and american workforce. >> nowhere near the largest, it is not really even a deal. >> canadians really ought to look at what the u.s. and mexico just completed. as an example of what can be done if there's good faith negotiating. >> he says he can get canada to step in and do a deal in a day? no. no, he can't. >> said we couldn't do a deal with mexico. we've done one. they said it couldn't possibly
