8:00 am
martha: 12 days to go. bill: that's right. i'm out of gas, you? martha: fill her up, right, because we have a long way to go. have a good day, everybody. happening now starts now. ♪ ♪ ♪ john: oh, yes, we do. the race for the white house getting tighter as we close in on election day. you're not running out of gas? jenna: absolutely not. john: welcome to happening now. i'm john scott. jenna: full tank. that's where we are at. i'm jenna lee. donald trump traveling to battleground ohio where the polls there give him an edge, small edge but an edge all the way. he will hold rallies in counties where he performed well during republican primary while hillary clinton hit it is trail for the first time with michelle obama in north carolina where clinton
8:01 am
holds an edge, a small edge as well but an edge all the same as brand new fox polls show clinton's national league over trump narrowing to 3 points in a four-way race. that's well within the margin of error. john: we have live team foñ with blake berman covering the clinton campaign in washington but we begin with john roberts outside of trump tower in new york city. john. what counts in the battleground states, donald trump is up slightly 1.1% in real clear politics of polls in the buckeye state of ohio. he's on his way now for three big campaign events. if you take at cross tabs from fox new poll you will find interesting information. donald trump continues to lead among white voters, 50 to 36 over hillary clinton. she leads him 82 to 5 among african-american voters but
8:02 am
donald trump still trying to win them over. in charlotte, north carolina trying to close the deal with them talking about urban renewal , fdr's playbook, he would draft a new deal for blacks in this country. here is what he said. >> every african american in this country is entitled to a government that puts their jobs, wages and security first. here is the promise to you, whether you vote for me or not, i will be your greatest champion . >> two of the big items in his agenda not only for african -- not only for african americans but for all americans, jobs and repealing and replacing obamacare. don't forget he said in his contract for the american voter that he would begin to repeal and replace obamacare a day one of his presidency doubling down on that promise and telling
8:03 am
people why yesterday on the campaign trail. here is what he said. >> premiums are skyrocketing double digits and surging by more than 100%. think of it, in the great state of arizona, i love arizona, it's going up 118%. but don't worry, doctors are quitting, insurers are leaving and companies are fleeing. every prediction that made about this law was a lie. >> now what's really interesting if you take a look at the state of florida is an example of where the race might be, we get tallies of early voting, in the early voting that started monday democrats are leading by about 34,000 votes but in the absentee ballots, mail-in ballots republicans are leading about 46,000. this race, john, very, very close. if you were to think that everybody voted along party
8:04 am
lines and allocate independents, it could be that the republicans are actually ahead in florida but we won't know for sure until we get the results on the night of november 8th or early morning on november the ninth. john: that's what makes the race so interesting in the last 12 days. it's going to be fascinating. john roberts, thank you. martha: early voting also underway in the next state we move to where first lady will appear on stage with hillary clinton for the first time in key battleground state of north carolina. blake berman live from washington with more on that. blake. blake: hi there, jenna. the first lady hit campaign trail five times already but today's appearance will be a first as michelle obama and hillary clinton will campaign together. despite being their first joint ra rally, clinton has channeled the first lady while out on the campaign trail, for example, listen here to clinton yesterday
8:05 am
in florida when she was talking about donald trump. >> every time he says one of those outrageous things that he does have a -- yeah, wrong, he does have a way of saying, i just keep remembering michelle obama's words when he goes low, we go high. blake: as you know, president obama did win north carolina in 2008 but he lost it four years ago in 2012. the polling averages as they currently stand right now have clinton up a couple points in that state. in north carolina and most certainly beyond clinton and her campaign in the recent days have been warning against complacency. campaign manager releasing this video here. >> donald trump has been going around telling people not to listen to the polls and says he can still win the race, well, you know what, he's absolutely right. hillary has the win in her back but we can't become overconfident. blake: along those lines, jenna,
8:06 am
while the polls generally show clinton out front in her campaign but there isn't a clear picture of where it stands, just 12 days to go. jenna, back to you. jenna: blake, thank you. john: kyle, political analyst at the university of va center -- virginia center for politics and author of why ohio pick it is president. it's fascinating to me. our fox news polls fresh off the presses and we had it there at the top of the hour shows it's 44-41 hillary clinton over donald trump by 3 points well within the margin of error. this is among likely voters and yet your crystal ball has hillary clinton at 352 electoral votes likely? >> yeah, we do. you know, a lot of the national polls are all over the map although they generally range
8:07 am
from small clinton lead which is fox news to a clinton lead about double digits. i don't think double digits is right but i also think clinton is probably up some where around 5 to 6 points and are electoral map has clinton at 352 electoral votes, that would be a victory some where along the lines between obama 2008 where he won 365 and obama 2012 where he won 332. if you're suggesting that clinton is in the mid-300's maybe the national lead is 5 to 6 points which is some where between obama '08 and '12. is it over in i don't think it is. clinton is a strong favorite with a dozen days to go here. john: i want to take a look and drill deeper in some of fox news polling. you win presidential races by winning independents, republican candidates generally get their faithful democratic candidates,
8:08 am
independents who decide and donald trump is seeing increased backing among independents, also great e strength of support, 68% of those who back trump say they are strongly backing him 61% of clintons backers say they back her strongly. so if trump is winning among independents, how big a margin does he need? >> well, so independents at this particular point in time are somewhat republican-leaning group just to put it in perspective. mitt romney won independents nationally about 5 points in 2012, of course, he lost the election by 4 points. independents are important but at the current make-up of the electoral slightly more, 6 percent points more worth of self-described democrats out there as opposed to republicans and clinton is getting just a little bit more party unity than trump is right now which accounts why she's leading in the fox news poll and also in
8:09 am
some other national polls. john: back to that measure of independents leanings, a couple of weeks ago it was 35% each. now it's 41 to 28% in favor of donald trump. that's a pretty significant shift, isn't it? >> it is although again clinton is still leading in that poll and is leading in by little bit more in some other places, so i think she's still okay although i think that, you know, you played some of the sound earlier, they certainly don't want voters to get complaisant, one thing advantage that republicans have in general is that their elect rate might be smaller than democratic electorate is more reliable. democratic turnout sags in the final days here. that could be problematic for clinton. that's something to watch. john: in your elect real crystal ball you pushed new hampshire and wisconsin from leaned democrat to likely democrat,
8:10 am
what does that do in your view to donald trump's electoral college chances? >> so those were important changes, new hampshire, wisconsin are not huge states but what it does to overall map it pushes clinton over 270 electoral votes in terms of ones we rated likely or safe and so she has a very solid lead in enough states that get to 2070. not only does trump need to get state that is are closer right now like a florida, north carolina, ohio, iowa, he also needs to breach one of these state that is we are calling likely for clinton be it a new hampshire or wisconsin. trump has not led a single poll in wisconsin and new hampshire, period. he has a lot of work to do. >> according to the title of your book ohio picks the president, right now in real clear politics, donald trump is up in ohio. >> ohio historically is a necessary but not sufficient condition for republican presidential victory.
8:11 am
the state does typically vote for the winner, it hasn't voted for the loser since 1960 but to the extent it deviates from the national voting, it does so in a republican direction and so there's definitely a possibility that trump would win ohio which is, again, historically more republican and also demographically friendly to him but that clinton could still win the election. it's possible that ohio would vote for the loser although i think ohio is basically 50-50 right now. john: this race is breaking the molds in a lot of ways. thank you. >> thanks, john. jenna: shocking revelations from the wikileaks, new e-mail showing clinton foundation and the personal income. what could it mean to hillary clinton's campaign and beyond? we will talk about that. plus, it is not over yet. a new fox poll shows the race tightening. carl rove joins us to talk about the trump team strategy. we want to hear from you. will independent voters make a difference in this election?

8:15 am
jenna: latest fox news poll show a tightening race for the white house. right now hillary clinton leads by 3 points. 44% to trump's 41%. that is a drop from earlier in the month when mrs. clinton lead by 6 points and the poll we should mention is between margin of error. in op-ed in today's wall street journal carl rove explains the campaign strategy, mr. trump assume victory for those who did not vote for mitt romney. this theory that president obama won 4.9 million votes only because 5 million wide state home enthused by mr. romney. on the surface missing 5 million sounds plausible. carl rove joins me now, former
8:16 am
senior adviser to president bush. you go onto right, karl that that isn't enough this time, why is that? >> well, first of all, for two reasons, one is -- is that donald trump is running mind mitt romney's performance among whites in not the most recent fox poll but the one before it representative of what's been happening this month. trump was deriving 45% among whites and leading clinton among them but mitt romney took 59%. so right now he's not where he needs to be. the expectation was that he would be above mitt romney among whites, maybe 61, 62% among whites. jenna: would that be enough to make the difference that we saw between romney and president obama and that's to push trump over the edge to be the windshield windshield -- winner.
8:17 am
it's not only the margin among whites but the percentage from comes from whites. it was 72%. it was 81% in 2000 and dropping since then. if you get the missing 5 million back the 72% as a share of the overall turnout goes to 74 or 75%. it's plausible to do because, remember, we have lots of people who don't vote in this country. 147 -- 129 million people voted but 24 million whites without -- white men without a high school education who don't vote, 47 million whites who with a high school education who don't vote. those are all plausible pools to draw from, but we are in an increasing diverse country and more turnout is black, brown, asian or other and it's just hard to bump that white number back up. we will see if he's able to do
8:18 am
it in 12 days that we don't really have a sense now of whether he's going to achieve it. jenna: i'm curious if election is particularly voting groups or turnout regardless of what group does show up, how do you see it karl? >> it's both. what percentage of the vote comes from what group and secondarily what percentage do you get among that group. the percentage of the latino population, say, for example, 2016 is likely to be bigger than it was in 2004. yet in 2004 george w. bush got 44% to have latino population, far more than mitt romney in 2012 and sífic nific antly larger than what appears that donald trump will get this time around. he's running behind the performance among mitt romney. it's not only what percentage among they but among the people that turn out in that group, how
8:19 am
do they break down republican or democrats. jenna: take us behind the scenes for a moment since you've been there. 12 days before voting day, what is it like, karl? what is it about the moment when the cameras aren't on? >> well, look, it's chaotic. you try and manage the chaos as best you can because you have the candidate -- you're making critical decisions on where the candidate goes. the candidate's presence in the state can impact the ballot. where is the race the closest and where he's going to have biggest impact in the outcome and you look at the candidate's message, what is the thing that will move voters your way and you're having discussions about how that message is, what's the dominant message for the day, the morning, afternoon, evening, how do they support each other, how do they build on what you've said before, how do they draw strengths from event that is are out there that cause people to
8:20 am
think. i mean, what do you need to say in order to reach the people that are out there -- who are up for grabs. then you have the whole issue of turnout. remember earlier in the day on fox there was discussion about these get out to vote efforts and how republicans in florida are turning out more than democrats are in early voting. you to compare to what it was like in the previous election and how that election came up. but then you also there are desperate efforts to figure out among independents, are the incompetents that you're turning out your people. they're literally taking computer files of all of those people turning out to vote and laying on top of it both past political information. how do they respond to a phone bank four years ago, eight years ago and demographic information. what are those people and what they look like and data scientists are doing that and giving you an estimate how you're performing among independents. that has implications to where
8:21 am
you send candidate, where you spend the money, where you run ads, where you send mail pieces and what you say. all of that has to do with who is actually turning out and are you comfortably moving ahead in ohio, so that you can take resources and put them in places where you're in trouble, say north carolina, how are you doing in certain parts of florida, put more money in the northwest and the north and less money in the southeast. these are the kinds of decision that is have to be made on the best possible of information dozen of times a day. jenna: certainly sounds like a lot of work. >> it is. jenna: karl, we will have to leave it there. we appreciate very much. john john very complicated. new developments in the battle to defeat isis as iraqi forces close in on the islamic state stronghold mosul. the terror group is resorting to a brutal tactic, we are live in iraq with breaking details. also in this country the manhunt for a murder suspect with a hit list goes nationwide.
8:22 am
8:25 am
jenna: fox news alert on the nationwide manhunt for oklahoma murder suspect. police say he could be anywhere from now from california to florida. the oklahoma sheriff said he decapitated and took off. vance was last seen 30 miles from the texas border. police say he may have died from gunshot wound on saturday. john: fox news alert in the battle to defeat isis with iraqi forces closing in on mosul. 20 miles from the city center. mosul is the second largest city
8:26 am
in iraq right behind baghdad but not the only front in the war against is nice iraq. benjamín is live which is west of mosul and closer to the syrian border, benjamín. >> john, people returning to liberated towns and villages. that's even before the city of mosul itself has been retain. in the christian town, a hundred thousand people, streets lie empty and many buildings and churches have been destroyed. the local priest says that isis was attacking all humanity and not just christianity and also called on americans not to forget christian minorities in iraq. they are looking for the next big battle. the city of mosul itself. behind me you can see the heavy artillery which will play a big role. first they have to wait for forces to get in position around
8:27 am
the city. >> kurdish fighters are doing just that. they continue to surround villages held by isis at the range of hills. footage show white flags raised over one of the villages. white flags customarily to signal to iraqi and ally forces that there's no militants in the house. where we are now west of mosul we are seeing a different picture. the once mosul itself has fallen. this is the forgotten front and we are going to bring you that story from here tomorrow. john. john: benjamín in iraq. thank you. jenna: con restaurant drip of emails on wikileaks with more problems for hillary clinton. north carolina is a key battleground but there's a bitter battle for one senate seat. why it's a must-win to keep control of the senate. forget politics for a moment, there's another huge contest

with more hacked emails show top aides concerned about leeked of foreign donation to the clinton foundation and bill clinton personal money making ventures and her run of the presidency. at the presidency, apparently pressed corporate donors to steer business opportunities to the former president. in a 2011 e-mail chelsea clinton ordered to review. let's talk about this. so a lot of different players here. you have different organizations, john, what do you think is the big headline from this latest revelation? >> there's no huge smoking gun here but it is fascinating because it shows how influenced plays out in washington. you have a former president, he sets up a foundation which he does a lot of good work, spending money on help to go get
8:33 am
medicines for aids to impoverish countries working with farmers around the world doing good work at the same time clinton inc, he's giving speeches for hundreds of thousands of dollars. once they get finished talking with ubs, don't you want to invite bill clinton to come speak to your organization, he will do it for x numbers of dollars. that's what happened, a million 5 to bill and money also from a variety of funders goes into the foundation. jenna: what do you think appropriate questions should be made about impact of that on hillary clinton who is attempting to become president of our country? >> see, that's the core question. was there any instance in which hillary was providing some kind of access either to the state department or to -- or to her or bill in preparation for her
8:34 am
perhaps one day becoming president, so this latest group of emails doesn't really show that. in fact, it shows chelsea clinton stepping up and saying, whoa, it looks like some of our fundraisers who have separately set themselves up in a consultant running their own business are using advantage to access to bill clinton to enrich themselves and their firm. we need an outside law firm to do an audit and straighten stuff out and make sure we are on the up and up ethically. jenna: what do you think of the gut check of chelsea? >> she's thinking ahead which is not something that bill clinton has done, thinking about implications, unintended consequences, the appearances and then the outright possibility that, look, you're letting things overlap too much. she's trying to keep that from happening. jenna: as voters look at some of the issues and sort them out and how they might use them when
8:35 am
they go to cast the ballot, there's what the e-mails show which is what you're describing as not necessarily a smoking gun but questions being raised and there's common sense. i think those things intersect whether you can follow the ins and outs about what common sense could tell us about the group of people and how they are raising money and influence in the white house some day. >> that's how it's going to be parsed. it's worth reading these things because it shows internal dynamics, people raising the questions, which is a good question. look, is there any impropriety, is there any experience of impropriety, we don't want that either. she's going to be vetted, who knows, the e-mails may come out before election day. jenna: the private consulting firm that was help to go book bill clinton and raising money that wasn't part of the foundation, you say that that firm is actually up for sale now? >> that's right.
8:36 am
they're thinking of selling themselves. doug had been one of the partners of the firm had been close with the clintons, aide to bill clinton and provided a lot of services for bill clint, you know, as well. his firm is the one that chelsea was worried about getting advantage from the connection to the foundation for which they were doing fundraising for bill clinton and the connection to bill clinton to whom they were steering business, speech-making business. jenna: we will see what happens at that and whether or not we see headlines of a sale. that could be interesting as well. great to have you on the program. >> you bet. john: we will be taking that up ahead. first lady michelle obama is campaigning with hillary clinton for the first time in north carolina where there is also a hotly contested senate race republican in dead-heat with democratic challenger former state aclu director debra ross. republicans consider this as must-win race if they are to
8:37 am
hold a majority in the u.s. senate. jonathan gives us a closer look live from charlotte, north carolina. >> hi, john, this race is too close for comfort for either candidate. when you look at the real clear politics average of polls you will see the incumbent leading democratic challenger debra ross by 2 points, that's a statistical dead heat. the closeness of the race comes to surprise to political analysts. >> north carolina is a swing state, but in many ways it's a republican swing state to lose. in order for a democrat to win north carolina, it has to be a particularly bad year for republican. >> this week "the new york times" editorial board endorsed ross writing, quote, electing ms. ross could help change the obstruction of state of senate politics. the burr campaign paints ross who once lead the north carolina aclu as being too liberal for this state. the presidential race is expected to have a significant
8:38 am
impact down ballot and at a recent debate both senate candidates tried to tie the other to the political baggage at the top of the ticket. listen. >> senator burr has told the party line even when donald trump has crossed the line. >> you talk about a rubber stamp. the rubber stamp is beside me and it's with the clinton administration. >> and senator burr told fox news that he's not afraid to speak publicly when he disagrees with donald trump. meanwhile the ross campaign a dozen requests for interview, however, the chair of the state democratic party sat down with us and said having a strong woman running for president certainly helps a female senate candidate, john. john: fascinating race. jonathan, thank you, jonathan. >> indeed. jenna: break from politics for a moment and turn to a big contest that's all tied. the cubs and indians 1 for 1 in world series. chicago took a win last night.
8:39 am
first win during world series since harry truman was president. live in cleveland but maybe not for long. you're on the move, jared. jared: good morning, jenna. i got one further for you. 1918 was the last time the cubs won game two in world series as they did last night. i could only imagine what it can be like at game number 3. wrigley field in chicago. generation of generation of people who live in chicago, a fabric of being in that region are the chicago cubs and what goes with that is the cubs really don't win. that's been the mentality. that could come to an end. the cubbies will have to win tomorrow, saturday and then being in position to go sunday. the darkest of gray clouds parting and then seeing sunshine
8:40 am
for what cubs fans have been through. people are willing to pay what they are. right now the secondary ticket market, the cheapest ticket available on stub hub right now is $2,250. 30 minutes ago it was 2,000. it's already gone up. the best value seats for a bullpen box in row a, you could get it for $8,334 or the same seats essentially for 12 grand. we understand from stub hub that there are tickets going as high as $19,000 just to see. that's $19,000 each to see game number three and that wouldn't even be a clinching game, jenna. jenna: surprising to know that there's open seats for sale at this point. jared, great to see you. we will continue to watch all the series. john: i think tickets were a quarter the last time they won world series. talk about inflation. new fallout for hillary clinton courtesy of the wikileaks document dump. the new memo showed the blurred lines between the clinton
8:41 am
foundation and bill clinton's personal income. you heard jenna talking about it just now. we are going to get into the possible legal implications. plus, this was no halloween nightmare, it was a dream come true for a sick little boy and for the police officers who made it happen. >> i'm just so overwhelmed. i'm so thankful for all of the people. i mean, i love my son but to see other people love on him too is incredible
8:44 am
jenna: dream come true for a sick boy in california. dozen of fresno police officers surprising 11-year-old aden nelson at the hospital yesterday after the mother told them he wan today dress as a police officer for halloween. >> she was shocked. he doesn't like surprises too much but he was nervous about what he was waiting for but when
8:45 am
he saw it, he was like, this is so cool. i thought they were going to come by and say hi. and so it was pretty cool. >> thank you for coming out. jenna: he has been in the hospital for a few months. he's dressing up for halloween. the police officers say he's one of them for life. john: now more on the latest wikileaks release as a new memo shows what seems to be a blurring of the lines between fundraising for the clinton foundation and former president bill clinton's personal income with top fundraiser duglas playing a crucial role in both ventures raising tens of millions of dollars for the foundation and for mr. clinton through, quote, various business arrangements including paid speeches. is all of this legal? let's ask our legal panel? attorney and fox news con tribe
8:46 am
-- contributor and emily, criminal defense attorney. thank you for both of you. the emails are starting to make front page news. times has an article today titled donations to foundation, clinton top aides. clearly there were concerns about whether all of this money that was flowing into the foundation but was flowing to bill clinton's pockets was legal . >> i've been say for many weeks now the fruit of the poison is tree doctrine which talks about it in the law. while the fruit might be very good, the foundation does, the source where they get the money, the way it's being procured is questionable and we know that
8:47 am
those exist because of dual capacity that it was operating. a nonprofit sector, the clinton foundation work and right beside it at the same time you're operating in a very for-profit capacity of the business interest of bill clinton. those are upwards of millions and millions of dollars. when the worlds clyde and becomes impossible for people to tell which is which, i do think there are absolutely legal questions about that. john: doug band launched consulting firm in 2011, by november of that year, partner had raised more than $8 million for the clinton foundation and also arranged for mr. clinton to deliver more than $3 million worth of paid speeches. again, the question is that legal? >> exactly. these are great questions and eboni makes great points because what we are seeing that influence is currency but when
8:48 am
we are seeing under charitable foundation linked to personal businesses, corporations and foreign government donations, it gets sticky and becomes a blurred line. so we are seeing here even the audit that was called after a whistle blower, the reporter said it appears connections with the clintons, the audit that chelsea clinton called for in 2011, look, the clinton foundation does not have the necessary oversight required by federal charity laws and the are loyalists to clintons and failed in oversight finances and there's cash accounting audits and myriad conflicts of interest and include the fact that donors are expecting questioned pro quo benefits. john: right. the king of morocco arranged for a conference and offered donation if hillary clinton who was serving as secretary of
8:49 am
state ultimately would appear at his event. apparently she did somebody else in-- instead. all of their talk, meaning the clinton's talk about charitable work mask it is fact that they were eager to get their own cut of the action and rigged in millions of dollars while donors hadints to pay to play culture that should be on full display. should hillary clinton be elected president? pay to play is illegal? >> of course, it is. this is what they will continue to say. there's no evidence, though, the expectation of pay to play is one thing and certainly i think we have facts to show a reasonable expectation on behalf of the donors, but the actual act where mrs. clinton has made a decision that is revolves around the fact that someone gave her money, no one has
8:50 am
