where they're being kind of stopped. they can't go much further than that area or that bridge. the president says, you, mexico, have to find a way to deal with it the sooner the better. fox continues now. neil: where is the body of jamal khashoggi? amnesty international says the saudis need to immediately produce it, just hours after the kingdom finally admits that he died at their consulate 19 days ago. what the white house is saying about the explanation and the reaction from the world. >> plus, hitting the campaign trail, president trump heads to nevada for a rally this afternoon after speaking out for g.o.p. candidates in arizona on friday. air force one is about to depart phoenix any minute now. neil: large group of central american migrants stuck on a bridge. you can see the video there

between honduras and mexico, as they want to come to the united states. our own griff jenkins on the u.s. border in mcallen, texas where the border patrol is arresting more migrants every day. >> two agents behind me taking on a group of 35 illegal aliens on the run. we'll tell you how it is coming up, leland. ♪ two weekends left until the midterms and it will finally be over. >> that's it? >> welcome, i'm leland vittert. kristin: i'm kristin fisher. after more than two weeks of denials, saudi officials admit that jamal khashoggi, they claim was killed in a fist fight from

istanbul. the very latest details on the saudi support to khashoggi's death. hi, ben. >> yeah, hi, kristin. this is a story, the news that we have been waiting for. three days after secretary pompeo arrived in riyadh and demanded answers, we finally got them. at least the saudi version of events. about 1 a.m. riyadh time, saudi state media breaking the news confirming that khashoggi was indeed dead. they say that he was strangled in the istanbul consulate by a team of men who had arrived there to question him. 15 of those arrested were those caught on cctv, including a driver, as well as other staff members, and crucially though two senior saudi officials also implicated. among them major general ahmed al-assiri. he was the deputy director of saudi intelligence, well-known for the war in yemen and apparently the one who organized the operation and sought to cover it up.

now saudi sources are claiming that the kingdom has a general order to return dissidents returning abroad and they do not have to be individually sanctioned from the top. when the consulate received news that khashoggi would be come to go pick up papers he needed, general asiri acting alone sent a 15-man team to con front him. on the team was a man who had been pictured alongside the crown prince on a number of international tours. he had been chosen because he had worked with mr. khashoggi a decade ago in the saudi embassy in london and knew him personally. apparently when khashoggi arrived at the consulate, they he can r-- he recognized the men there and tried to flee. there was a scuffle and he was put in a chokehold and strangled. the big question, where is the body? saudi sources claiming they gave the body to a local contractor of theirs and he disposed of the body so they do not yet know

where it is. that's what everyone is waiting for. what they're trying to find out. this has been a geopolitical storm. people trying to smooth it over between saudi arabia and turkey. the big question, of course, can the u.s. and saudi arabia move on from what has been a tumultuous few weeks. kristin: how about the u.s. respond? benjamin, thank you so much. neil: we're getting a little bit of that response in the past 12 to 18 hours or so from the united states government. the khashoggi crisis really shining a spotlight on u.s.-saudi relations. we're hearing from the white house and we're hearing from members of congress as well. garrett tenney with that. folks in congress aren't very happy. >> this is a hot topic on capitol hill. to put it plainly they're not buying the saudi explanation how khashoggi died. lawmakers from both parties say it's simply not credible. democratic senator schiff says that jamal khashoggi he was killed brawling with a team of a

dozen, and if he was fighting in the consulate, he was fighting for his life with people sent to capture or kill him. senator lindsey graham was one of the most outspoken. to say that i'm skeptical about the narrative about mr. khashoggi is understatement. first we're told he left the consulate and denial of blanket involvement. and now a fight breaks out and he's killed in the conflict without knowledge of the crown prince. it's hard to find this explanation as credible. at one point, the person who is buying the explanation, is the person who matters most. yesterday he was asked by a reporter if he believes the explanation is possible. mere is his response. >> do you consider it credible? >> i do, i do. again, it's early. we haven't finished our review to stay that there was a fight. that's a theory put out. they're giving us a full report,

but they have arrested a large number of people and good first step. >> even if the president buys the saudi's explanation, congress may decide to take action against the kingdom on its own. and democrat chris coons pointed to that in a statement i'm seeking a classified briefing and depending on the facts of this case, we may need to readdress 0 your relationship with saudi arabia, the arms sales and others. >> and mitch mcconnell says he can't imagine there won't be a response to the khashoggi death by the u.s. the question is how severe that response will be and what it would entail. neil: winston churchill was famous for saying, country have no permanent allies, but interests. more fallout from congress to come. kristin has more. kristin: for more on this, the former ambassador to saudi

arabia, robert jordan. ambassador, thank you for being with us on a difficult day, really. ambassador, i want to start by asking you, what you think about the saudi version of events. president trump said last night that he found them to be credible. do you? >> absolutely not. i think senator graham's response is very similar to what mine would be. there's no way in the world that this crown prince would have not known in advance of this targeted killing. you don't show up for an interview with 15 people with a bone saw and a forensic autopsy expert. there are several other parts to this that don't make much sense. if there was indeed a local contractor to disposed of the body, the turkish officials certainly need to interview him and we need to find out what he can tell us. the saudis have given no information where the body is and their notion that they don't know where it is rings quite hollow to me. i think we've also got to look,

by the way, at this new reporting on this general directive that's gone out worldwide to bring in dissidents from all over the world back to saudi arabia. i can't imagine that american intelligence hasn't picked up on this and doesn't have more information. this is a complete violation of international law, something that we should be standing up the an a very bare minimum. kristin: president trump has been saying for days now as soon as he get the preliminary findings from the saudi report that he was going to make a determination at that point in time as to how he was going to respond. now we know and last night president trump said that he wanted to wait to speak with the crown prince again and wants to work with congress before taking action. just, again, that headline that he says that he finds this version of events to be credible. when you heard that from president trump, what did you think? >> well, i think it's premature and i think what he should have said is let's keep an eye out here. he did give himself some wiggle

room saying this is preliminary. so i think he needs to hold his powder further until we see what's coming out, especially coming out from the turkish report. we should just in a matter of days, if not hours, hear from the turks about their version of events, any recordings they have, which clearly need to be turned over to us, international authorities. i think that's going to play a big role in how we assess what happened. kristin: what advice would you give to president trump how he should respond so that we know that the saudi citizens were indeed responsible for this death? >> i think he needs to understand that america is more than a plutocracy, an arms seller. we are also a beacon of hope and freedom for the rest of the world. we need to support journalists. we need to support the rule of law, so this is something that i would encourage him to appreciate. i would also encourage him to appoint an ambassador to saudi arabia. we have gone two years now without one and we also don't have one in turkey.

these relations are so complex and difficult so we've got to have a senior person preside presidentially appointed. kristin: and the possible options for how the trump administration to respond. president trump last night essentially seemed to already try to take that arms deal off the table. he said he would leave it up to congress ultimately, but he wanted this arms deal in place in order to save u.s. jobs. do you agree with that or not? >> well, first of all, you don't have to completely cancel the arms deal in order to make a point to the saudis. i think congress should go in this direction, we should put a pause on the arms sale. and it's not time critical at the moment. i might put a pause on it and i might put a pause on provision of weapons and mid air refueling in the yemen war. i think there are a number of tools in our toolbox we could

use without-- with the saudis. kristin: thank you very much. and leland, we'll be sure to tune into fox news sunday for the latest on the death of jamal khashoggi. chris wallace, he's going to be talking to senator rand paul about khashoggi and what the u.s. shut do next. check your listings for time and channel and media buzz, hourt kirtz is going to be discussing with his panel on the latest on khashoggi and talk to the editorial page editor of the washington post sunday at 11:00 easte easte eastern. leland: the president doubling down on the migrants stuck on a bridge between guatemala and mexico. and it's a preview what's to come. griff jenkins live near the border in texas as the border

patrol continues its efforts there. hi, griff. >> hi, leland, they're overwhelmed here already without that caravan up here in this rio grande valley sector, 641 illegal crossings a day. the two agents behind me, agents sterna and gaza, in the last hour had four different groups come their way, a total of 35 illegal crossers, they believe. they got 27 of them. let me show you where we are on this railroad track. if you look down this road, it's where most of the activity happened. and it's in this brush, this is actually ranch property, but a mile, maybe less than a mile right to my south is the rio grande river, that's where they cross and they do it all day long. they're trying to get to the neighborhood just beyond that. sometimes they have contraband and sometimes they don't. a note in the group of 27, the two agents singlehandedly got in the last hour, they're not all

mexicans, or hondurans. they have three chinese and two brazilians, not totally unusual, but rare. in all likelihood they'll have a summons for a court hearing because we don't have anyplace to put them and that's part of the loophole that the deputy chief talked to me about. the organizations the cartels, the people coming from these central american countries are taking advantage of these loopholes in the system and so if we could close those, that would allow us to repatriate these folks a lot quicker to their home countries. >> and we didn't see agents cirna and garcia, but this is a smuggler in the action bringing people over. he was bringing family units, mothers, children, and unaccompanied kids by themselves in one case an eight-year-old girl that traveled some 15 days from guatemala.

they surrendered themselves for asylum, but it's compounding the problem and that's why in this area alone, they're seeing a 300% increase of family units which really cuts down on their manpower to apprehend the 35 that were on the run just in the last hour. we're hearing, by the way, leland, there's traffic about ten minutes to our west and we're going to try and search that down and find out. one thing for sure when that caravan of migrants get here, they'll find an already overwhelmed u.s.-mexican border. leland: that continues on the campaign fund, and funding for the wall as well. griff, thanks. kristin: with just 17 days to go before election day, heavy hitters are turning out in tight races to rally voter support. you're taking a look at houston, texas where senator ted cruz will take the stage soon with fox's sean hannity and rick

perry. and vice-president joe biden will rally voters in las vegas. president trump is holding a rally in nevada this afternoon to fire up voters out there, part of a multi-state tour of key races. our peter doocy is on the ground in elko, nevada with a preview of the rally. >> the president's got midterms on the mind this morning. he's going to have a rally in nevada and he tweeted about keys races in georgia and florida. and he wrote if the democrats would stop being obstructionist and come together, we could write up and agree to new immigration law in less than one hour. look at the needless pain and suffering they're causing and the horror on the border. chuck and nancy call me. that follows a declaration by the president that this will be the election of the caravan. he's closely monitoring the group of thousands of central

american migrants trying to make their way to the border. because the president insists there are hardened criminals, he's calling on the mexican president before they get to the border to ask for asylum. and senator dean heller, the republican who leads by 11-- 1.7% over jacky rosen. and it's one of those that they could flip a seat. and they have barack obama on monday to rally with rosen. and the republican base is in more rural areas like here in elko, about a six-hour drive from las vegas and we understand that when senator heller gets here it's going to be on air force one with the president. kristin: peter doocy is going to be on the campaign trail between now and election day.

thanks, peter. leland: he's got a busy few weeks coming up. up ahead, andy biggs, the congressman from arizona who spoke at the president's rally yesterday will be here to discuss the arizona senate race. plus, heading north to north dakota where incumbent senator heidi heitkamp has a tough fight to keep her job. and we'll talk to the man challenging her job. there he is. plus, violence breaks out in afghanistan as voters head to the polls today to choose their next government. and our panel of democrats debating the effects of house minority leader nancy pelosi on the midterms as republicans keep linking her to vulnerable democrats across the country. >> ms-13 lover, nancy pelosi. this has become the party of maxine waters and nancy pelosi. john like he's from montana, but he votes like he's nancy pelosi.

after this rally president trump has three more campaign stops in the coming week. he's been on the road almost constantly. congressman andy biggs spoke at the rally last night in arizona and joins us now from phoenix. nice to see you, sir, appreciate it. air force one makes a lot of noise when it comes to town. how big are the president's coat tails right now in arizona? >> well, that's what we're about to find out? they seem to be pretty strong right now. a big rally, about 25,000 people couldn't even get in. so i think it indicates the energy that's there and if-- and that's where it boils down to. is how big is those coattails. if they're as big as they are, then people like martha pulled it off. leland: at least when you look at the polling, the coattails look to be smaller than the past. and he won arizona by four points. and mcsally is essentially tied

in the real clear politics. what's going on with the president? you say he's doing a great job. to people in arizona not feel it yet? >> they feel it, but a lot of people don't buy into giving poll answers, but i think it's razor thin. i think that's accurate, but i think just inherently in arizona the numbers favor martha mcsalley so we would win. leland: what's in supporting president trump and trickling down. is it attitudal, immigration? where are the drivers here? >> well, it's the economy. the economy is very good in arizona, very solid and one of the fastest greg states. so that's number one. number two, they're concerned about the border security and if there's a problem, they blame congress and not the president, which is right on immigration. so, that trickles to martha and

the other thing that they're energized by, frankly, are the justices, gorsuch and kavanaugh, and the federal court appointees and that's powerful here. leland: i'll come back to the first question. if as you say the economy in arizona is red-hot and the statistics and the numbers support that hypothesis and people are motivated by the economy, why aren't more people coming out for marsha mcsalley. why is this razor thin if people are so happy? well, i think in the end republicans have been complacent longer than democrats, quite frankly. and so, if we get the base out, then martha will win probably by four or five points simply because the numbers are inherently in her favor, but right now, the republicans have been complacent because the economy has been so good, is my opinion, combined with the normal midterm lapse that you get. >> interesting perspective

there. you say immigration is also very important. you point out that a lot of folks blame congress. the republicans have the house, senate, the white house, and still no big immigration bills, no funding for the wall. we've got this migrants caravan coming up. do you worry that people are going to be, for lack of a better term, disgusted and turned off by republicans, or are they going to double down? >> i do worry about that. i'm a believing, you make the promise and you keep the promise or people will make you pay, but i think a lot of republicans that are going to come back home and say well, the altitude is worse. leland: is alternative voting for democrats, or is the alternative just not voting? >> and that's the problem. that's a great point because if it's voting for democrats, they review that as worse, but i think most people are sophisticated enough to know if you don't vote for the republican, that's really a vote for the democrat because the democrats wash out ahead on

that. leland: real quick, congressman, i've got to let you go in 15 seconds. any interesting tidbits from behind the scenes from the president last night. he seemed fired up and ready to go to borrow a phrase? >> he was pumped up. we talked to him from the helicopter to the hangar. these crowds energize him so much. here is a regular guy who likes being president of the united states. leland: he certainly seems to enjoy when he's up on stage, as do the crowds as well. we appreciate you being here. all the best. >> thank you, leland. >> fight for our farmers, this is a huge difference between congressman cramer and myself from the very beginning, i could see that these tariffs were going to have a very dramatic and negative effect on north dakota farmers. i used to say i was the chief for these because they are so wrong about for north dakota. we spent years building these

and we'll lose it in a year. kristin: that's heidi heitkamp and she's wrung against cramer. and we reached out multiple times to senator heitkamp and her campaign did not get back. congressman, it's just you, thanks for being with us. >> great to be with you. i'm preparing to go to an ndsu game, and i'm dpres dressed to for a tale gate party. kristin: you've got a good excuse. i want to talk about what senator heitkamp was just talking about, the negative effects of trump and the trade wars, and soy bean farmers. you support the president's trade policies. what are you telling the north dakota farmers who say why are you supporting these policies when they're hurting us so much? >> well, i've been meeting with a lot of farmers lately and most

of them support the president's policies and on balance, they love the president of the united states because donald trump has rolled back regulations and he's getting them better trade deals, the completion of the u.s.-mexico, canada trade deal represents 88% of north dakota's exports and he's gotten a much better deal. there are some farmers hurting, no question about it in the short-term, but they're looking to the long-term and when she says she's been the chief bitcher about the policies i would say how about you join the u.s. side against china rather than standing up for china and their tariffs on our farmers. i think that's part of the problem. we need a unified front against our enemy, not this undermining of the president's leverage that he has right now on china and there's also some good news in addition to the other trade deals, like european union and the united kingdom and south korea and japan. so, farmers on balance are very supportive of this president. kristin: so you've come under a

little bit of criticism for that from these farmers, but i also want to talk about something your opponent has come under criticism for. senator heitkamp came under fire her campaign accidentally releasing the names of these sexual assault victims in a newspaper. she has apologized for it and it's something that she brought up very early on in your debate with her earlier this week. watch this. >> my campaign wrongly listed many names in a campaign ad that were not authorized and were inappropriate. i can only say this is a terrible mistake. and the last thing i would ever want to do would be to cause trauma or any victim of violence. kristin: so she says it was a mistake and she says she was disappointed. she's let the staffer who was allegedly responsible go. is that enough? >> it's not enough. kristin, first of all, yes, it was wrong, yes, it was a major mistake the biggest mistake i've

seen in politics, but it wasn't an accident. this is a full page print ad in the newspaper that, you know, you don't just accidentally print a newspaper ad. i think what happened was they miscalculated that not every woman wants to be named a victim in the newspaper ad. we've had women calling our office looking for a help, wondering what they're going to do. scared they're going to have to move. no, this was a really big mistake, but it wasn't an accident. no, it's not enough. and you can't do more than apologize after you've smashed the glass, but piecing it back together is much more difficult. i personally think she should have suspended her campaign and calling each of them and apologized. kristin: she has apologized. >> she's apologized in an ad, by the way, in about the size after postage stamp and in the ad she uses the opportunity to apologize and also to attack me again, missing the complete point of what a true, a sincere

apology would be. >> you have also taken a little bit of flak for something you said about judge kavanaugh's accusers and at first you called allegations absurd and you cleared up you referred to the timing of the allegations coming out and even if the allegations are true that that should not perhaps be disqualifying because it was 36 years ago. with weeks to go, do you stand by the statements? >> well, the context of the statement was that if what he did 36 years ago, if it's true, wouldn't necessarily be automatically disqualifying. what would be would be that he'd lied to us today about it. that's what would be automatically discalling to me. that's the context. statement. he think we're getting into this gotcha mentality of withholding information, confidential information. by the way what dianne feinstein said in outing this of professor

ford's is exactly what heidi heitkamp did with 127 people in north dak. kristin: congressman, i'll leave it there. i know you've got a tale-- tailgate. and you're up 8 in the polls. leland: and why hillary clinton is on the campaign trail and why some democrats wish she would stop. i'm ken jacobus, i'm the owner of good start packaging. we distribute environmentally-friendly packaging for restaurants. and we've grown substantially. so i switched to the spark cash card from capital one.

i earn unlimited 2% cash back on everything i buy. and last year, i earned $36,000 in cash back. that's right, $36,000. which i used to offer health insurance to my employees. my unlimited 2% cash back is more than just a perk, it's our healthcare. can i say it? what's in your wallet? that skills like teamwork, attention to detail, and customer service are critical to business success. like the ones we teach here, every day.

enterprise car sales and you'll take any trade-in?rom success. that's right! great! here you go... well, it does need to be a vehicle. but - i need this out of my house. (vo) with fair, transparent value for every trade-in... enterprise makes it easy.

>> senator nancy pelosi right here. look at this (bleep) right here. look at this (bleep) pelosi right here. (bleep). you don't belong here (bleep) get (bleep) out of here. >> all right. that's protesters heckling house minority leader nancy pelosi as she entered a restaurant in florida on friday. polling shows she is one of the most unpopular political figures in america. but evidently she's already measuring the drapes in the

speaker's office should the democrats win it back. and here is jehmu green and robert, a headline from the los angeles times, nancy pelosi minutes at short-term house speakership. jehmu, i know there's some democrats who are shaking their heads at this one. >> well, first looking at that video, i do hope that we're going to get the same calls for civility from republicans. leland: excellent point. waiting for that. >> here is the thing. nancy pelosi is a great leader. she is an effective fundraiser, she's a woman in a time when women are driving enthusiasm for democrats not just as voters, but as candidates and also, there's really no successful or specific alternative that has been put up against her. >> wait, hold on. leland: let me get robert in on this. robert, has there been no successful or heir apparent to nancy pelosi because she's designed it that way?

>> that's exactly the point. the reason there's no heir apparent, the old guard wanting have nobody come up. and what we've seen whenever there's not a succession plan to move on, to have the old guard pass the ball to the new generation, then that empire falls. we have to make a plan and put it in place to make sure that the older people in the party are able to still have influence, still able to fund raise and be a part of learn, but the younger faces pushing things forward. leland: speaking in terms-- . >> i couldn't agree more. let me say i couldn't agree more with exactly what you said it was succession and young voices. leland: who is the young voice? if you watch republican advertising right now, even in senate races across the country, nancy pelosi is becoming the bogeyman. her unfavorables two to one and

republican senate groups tying senate candidates to nancy pelosi because she's so unpopular. who do the democrats have on the bench? >> there's no doubt that republicans have done an excellent job of demonizing her. certainly right here on fox they do it all the time, and she and many other women who are leaders within the democratic party have become their favorite target. but nancy pelosi, what i'm hearing, has been talking about succession. and looking at folks like adam schiff who we see on the air all the time. that's good news to me. i hope the next democratic speaker after nancy pelosi is going to be another woman. that would be great, especially in these times, but until we are able to handle the challenges facing democrats in this trump administration, i want the most effective person and nancy pelosi has certainly proven her effectiveness. leland: she says that she sees

herself as a transformative figure, a transitional figure, rather, in terms of how that may play out if the democrats win the house. robert, i know you wish she would transition out. the one thing she's been extraordinarily successful in and jehmu makes this point as unbelievable, is raising money. raised over $120 million this election cycle for democrats since she came into leadership, more than half a billion dollars, robert, how do you replace that? >> well, she can continue doing exactly that. no one is telling her go off to pasture or anything along those lines, but as far as people in leadership, you have jeffrey, a lot of millennialish who could be reflecting the next generation. you can't have a bunch of 70-year-old as running the party, and make sure you have the face ins front.

she could continue raising money and pushing the agenda, but don't have to be the actual leader. leland: robert, as you make the point, how we originally discussed what that panel and discussion would look like about the democrats divided and they are in so many ways. look at the possible field for 2020. we'll talk about that after the midterms. great conversation. thanks so much. jehmu, robert, good to see you. kristin: parliamentary and the taliban, how they're impacting the vote. before i had the shooting,

joining us is the senior council of defense of democracies, john hannah. i wanted to start the segment running through the acts of violence. there's almost too many in the last weeks. ten candidates killed over the course of two week. at least 150 wounded today and 15 killed. what are you hearing what it's like on the ground on voting day in afghanistan? >> it's a good news/bad news story. the good news, is sounds like a lot of people showed up. still an interest in elections and still an interest in democracy in afghanistan and a lot of people ran for office, including a tlot of young peopl and women who want to replace the war lords and corrupt elite who have dominated the afghan parliament for years now. that's the good news. the bad news as you say is the back drop of awful violence. it's been as bad a year in afghanistan as we've seen in a long time despite the trump

administration of surge and new strategy, and that's the critical issue. can we stabilize the security situation because without that, no new governing structure is going to be able to succeed. >> in addition to all of this violence, they're having to deal with huge technological glitches in terms of recording these people's votes. they've got ballot boxes missing, poll workers who aren't able to figure out how to use the newly installed biometric i.d. machines. what are you hearing about that? it was a chaotic process, a lot of polling stations didn't open or didn't open on time. people didn't know how to use the new technology, some of the new technology didn't work. voting materials didn't show up. they've had to extend the voting into tomorrow in some places so this is real chaos that's obviously going to draw a question mark under the actual election results when they're announced sometime next month. kristin: you were saying 17 years of war and this is about

as bad as it's ever been and then, you know, just last week, i think, one of the things that everybody here in washington certainly is focused on is what happened to the head of u.s. and n.a.t.o. forces this need to pull his weapon on an insider attack. for this to happen and one of the u.s.'s key allies in afghanistan killed, how big a deal is this? >> psychologically, i think, it's a devastating blow to have the taliban still be able to conduct this kind of insider attack at the very highest levels of both the american command and the afghan command. 17 years into this very, very long war, i think, underscores how bad this fight is going for the united states. the taliban now either controls or contests at least 50% of the country and there really doesn't seem to be any more strategy for american victory this in war. we're now totally focused on a negotiated outcome and trying to

end this war by talking to the taliban, trying to get some kind of peace deal that allows us to draw this war down. kristin: right. and for something like that to happen, just days before an election, it just had to really hit at voter morale and yet you have to think about these people who are actually risking their lives to go out and cast their vote. >> absolutely. kristin: it puts things into perspective when we're getting ready to vote in a few weeks or so. >> an absolute message of courage and defiance. kristin: absolutely. >> in the face of a taliban and growing islamic state presence in afghanistan that is totally dedicated to disrupting these elections by violence and killing as many innocent afghans as they possibly could. kristin: thank you for coming in and providing a perspective on this, we appreciate it. >> thank you. leland. leland: the mega millions jackpot keeps climbing. you, too, could be the winner of $1.6 billion. i'm not sure what that video has to do with the lottery.

we'll find out. jackie is near the sensation that has to do with the lottery. hi, jackie. >> hey, leland, we're at carlton cards. they've told more winning lottery tickets than anywhere. have a look at the odds coming up. thank you todd. it's not just easy. it's-being-a-master-of-hypnotism easy. hey, i got your text- sleep! doug, when i snap my fingers you're going to clean my gutters. ooh i should clean your gutters! great idea. it's not just easy. it's geico easy. todd, you will go make me a frittata.

>> welcome back. as you're watching you probably didn't win the lottery. in fact, nobody did. the mega millions jackpot is now up to $1.6 billion. that makes it the largest lottery prize in u.s. history. jacqui heinrich live from a very busy lottery stand there in penn station ahead of tuesday night's drawing. hi, jacqui. >> i've never even done a scratch ticket much less the lotto. i bought into the hype and bought a ticket. i'm still at work. i can think of 1.6 billion reasons to try again today. the mega millions has soared to a staggering 1.6 billion, the largest jackpot in lottery history and expected to increase and the powerball grew 474 million, a prize of more than $2 billion. nobody has won since july and the prize rolled over 25 times now so people are flocking to

the registers. yet in nevada the line snaked around the building, some people waiting more than four hours for a ticket. and nevada doesn't participate in the lottery, but it straddles the border. even first-timers are trying their luck. >> it's as big as it is. i don't normally play, but it's a huge one. i figure if i win, all of my relatives are winning. >> so if you take the cash payout versus installments over 29 years it comes out to $904 million before taxes. then you lose 37% in federal income tax, bringing that number down to $569 million. that's before you get hit with the state tax. the highest state taxes at new york at 8.82%. now your odds are even slimmer than they were yesterday, sitting just under 302.26 million.

you're more likely to achieve sainthood. get eaten alive by flesh eating beckett or-- bacteria. or drafted by the nba. the secondary prizes mega millions say there are 34 second prize winners so check your tickets. the mega millions is on tuesday. but the powerball, that happens tonight. leland: they keep making it harder to win to get that's jackpots up so people play. jacqui. thanks. kristin: much more ahead in the next hour of america's news headquarters. migrants on the way to the u.s. are stalled on the bridge between mexico and guatemala. our griff jenkins is live on the border with the latest. for strength and energy! whoo-hoo! great-tasting ensure. with nine grams of protein and twenty-six vitamins and minerals. ensure. now up to 30 grams of protein

for strength and energy! and back pain made it hard to sleep and get up on time. then i found aleve pm. the only one to combine a safe sleep aid, plus the 12 hour pain relieving strength of aleve. ... you need your wing nut. ( ♪ ) no one can totally satisfy a craving, quite like your wing nut.

leland: is the first hour. kristin: in a busy second hour we fight it happens all the time. washington midterms are a couple of weeks away. i'm leland vittert. kristin: and i'm kristin fisher. questions about whether jamal khashoggi is killed in a fight more than two weeks ago. reaction from the white house and around the world. leland: migrants stuck in limbo on the border of mexico and guatemala.

they'll want to come to the '90s. life at the us-mexico border with preparations for their arrival. kristin: present job is about to make another stop of the western states mean to her. we will go live to nevada were present is about to speak in about one hour. leland: the saudis have come up with their explanation about 1:00 a.m. local time they released a statement saying that saudi journalist jamal khashoggi was killed in the conflict after a brawl with security agents. better hall in a stable where jamal khashoggi died. then, anybody buying the saudi's answers and explanation's except for themselves? reporter: leland, we've had 70 days of denial and contradictory statements from saudi arabia and finally we got one version of

events from them. it's not been received terribly well across world. let me lay it out. as he set on the television or state prosecutors officers now claim to have arrested 18 people in connection with jamal khashoggi murder. fifteen of the individuals are the ones caught on tv camera entry is stable and the consulate. what saudi arabia is claiming there was a fight at the conflict which led to his death but a team had been sent to talk to him or perhaps bring him back but it was crucially not fiction by the royal family. according to saudi arabia where jamal khashoggi right there he saw the men, recognized some of them and there was an altercation and try to flee but the men stopped him and punches were thrown in jamal khashoggi screamed one of the men put him in a cold strangling him to death. two high-ranking officials have now been advocated. first is a man, to start military general was trained in the us and uk and a former spokesman for the saudi war in yemen. he's a major figure in saudi intelligence. second is senior aide and media advisor to the conference.

he claims to have cap this whole saga from the prince providing total deniability for the royal family. saudi say limitation will take a month and the conference himself will oversee a total restructuring of saudi intelligence. as that body, searchers are still in a way at the farm land around the table. sources claim the body may been removed in two cases that given to a local collaborator to dispose of meaning saudi's themselves do not know where it ended up. still the big question why were 15 people sent to question them and what happens to the audiotapes the turkey claims to have which proves he was tortured, but his fingers torn off in the rest. turkey has gone quiet's report came out and indeed we do know saudi arabia trying to split this over turkey bigger question willis with things over with the us? leland. leland: of the questions including the audiotape the turk said they had.

ben hall in a stable where it's already late now and saturday night. boy, we heard from president trump who said i find their explanation kind of credible but those in congress a no dice in terms of. [inaudible conversations] he did say that when you travel. this is putting the spotlight on the us relationship with the saudi's. kristin: absolutely. the entire jamal khashoggi case could impact the oil markets and 110 billion-dollar arms deal with the saudi's so were here to provide more insight. james is a national foreign-policy with the heritage foundation. james, we had 70 days of waiting to see what the saudi's were going to say and now we get the pulmonary report. immediate boss on it? >> seems like we talked about this forever. were on day two of the story. they won was this very limited real factory new and a speculation and we all ran in

circles for two weeks. now we have a competing saudi narrative so another something to argue against it doesn't matter what the narrative is or what the president [inaudible] because now the saudis commit to will do it of education and report so have the saudi report. will have what the turk say what our own intelligence committee and make an assessment. that is weeks away in the day three of the story. kristin: but wasn't the first saudi narrative they didn't know anything about it and nothing to do with it? >> that is essentially why the saudi's were getting hammered for two weeks because there was no other expedition out there. look, let's be honest. if someone came to you and said here's my screenplay for a movie plot and you say that sounds like a bad truck north movie and the saudis come up with something that sounds like an implausible csi as bisson now we have two narratives neither which sound like common sense.

here's what we had. commitment from turks and saudis to come to the table and deliver a report. leland: hold on. you talk about the report from the saudis. how is this a report on the kalman killing of jamal khashoggi any credible than oj simpson on his search for the regulars -- really? >> that they could request. leland: why do we have to wait? the idea that us intelligence doesn't know what happened the idea that we don't have a single intelligence unfolds and those who ordered it and the fact that we haven't talked to the turks and heard the audio recording is ridiculous. why do we need to wait other than as politically convenient? >> i laugh at people say that. people who treat it to me -- you can't tell me the rest doesn't know exactly what happened. i've been around the intelligence committee for a really long time and anytime some people tell me of course we know everything that happened that says you don't understand us intelligence committee. look. leland: the cia is so incontinent that they don't have signal intercept that elyse had

a pretty good picture on what happened? we not run facial shape analysis? >> are not incompetent but is not in intelligence target until after the event. leland: it's always in intelligence -- >> get to go back and reassess all the information and user information together and that takes time. it doesn't happen if the team is on csi they go in and tap in the computer and boom, the data, but that's not how it happens. my dad was a cop. i learned one thing. this is a real burden of ossetian and the biggest mistake to make in a investigation is to present know what the answer is and go in looking for the evidence to prove it. a real mitigation is starting by saying i don't know and i'll believe what happened let others take me where it goes. leland: typically the cops would not allow the accused murderer to do the investigation. >> but this is the thing, will the saudis produce witnesses or reports or for the evidence.

kristin: or not have an independent investigation? >> get the saudis to agree to an independent investigation that would be great but don't necessarily will have a good the biggest mistake you made try to spin the narrative is sending pompeo to his temple was driving to do. should've sent the fbi doctor and we want the facts and evidence of that drive. leland: now that we've spent four minutes arguing about the investigation is is not exactly what they want? >> look, that's why i say [inaudible] the way the british to the bus station they put their evidence on the table in the world to decide in the russians corrected and the russians got hammered because the british put a credible investigation on the table and they reacted badly. let them put their money where their mouth is. let the world assessment and

that's what will happen is coming up on midterms. people will focus on other things in congress is out and will not get day three of the story until november. kristin: well, leave it there. james, thank you for coming on. leland: i can't wait. >> i will come back to my promise. [laughter] kristin: meanwhile, groups of migrants and asylum singles from central america stop right next to please at the guatemala border. officials are close watching our own border we wait to see what happens with this caravan. we've got griff jenkins on the ground with border control in texas. griff, what is happening? reporter: is a border that is already overwhelmed in this rio grande valley sector. 641 illegal crossings every day and this is mexico behind me. the server the entire rgb sector is 277 miles of pure river. mexico on the site and you can see just beyond me in the trees a path comes down.

within the last hour the border patrol saw people come down, put a wrapped in the water and that's where they came across the water and in five guys came up the embankment on the side and the cameras showed the border patrol got lit it up and then the woman that lives on this little ranch told us she did not want the camera but told us the wall border patrol agents were looking for it her dogs were barking and came out and saw five illegal aliens go and run along the fence line out about 200 yards to a road which went out to see what was going on and they jumped into a car that have been called and waiting for the. it's significant. let me show you this border of pure water because what happens is when so many family units, and we've seen all morning long watching these are actual arrest but it's family units, cross and immediately surrendering in dozens already this morning to the border patrol.

it causes a manpower issue for the overworked, undermanned border patrol because they to process these people. what happened the cartels are sending people across the server getting to this location and now you got five people that got in. officials here tell me here's the deal. if you got to process more people that means less agents on the river. there's less agents that means more illegal crossings, more drugs common that agents can get. that is overwhelming getting right now. there is a three 100% increase since this time last year of family units coming over and adjust the last two weeks more than 3500 family units showing up means a lot illegal crossings and possibly country and like drugs common in this area. the woman who lives here tells us this was a high point for narcotics from the cross. so that caravan can appear and

add to the problem it will be quite an issue for the border patrol working so hard to secure the border. kristin: no doubt. griff jake live on the border, thank you. leland: displays directly into the midterm elections. on the stump almost every time president trump talks about immigration about his desire to build a wall and about the dangers of our border to the south. peter ducey live in nevada just ahead of the president's arriv arrival. hello, peter. >> leyland, the president this morning loaded up air force one with vulnerable incumbent republican senators dean heller. they are about touchdown here in elko, six hours north of las vegas if you are to do the drive. the president just tweeted -- he headed to nevada double man who's become a good friend, senator dean heller. all about making america great again and i need his help and

talent in washington. also, adam will be a great governor and has mike complete and total endorsement. winners of both. he just took the stage in the preprogram. president also focusing on immigration. issue he tried to elevate to midterm voters excited now i cannot is off and he says this will be the election of the caravan. he insists the caravan of central american migrants making their way from the southern border is filled with hardened criminals that is a local issue here in the southwest. the senator is trying to help today, senator dean heller, who sits in one of the only seat democrats think they can put the cycle and that is why they are sending barack obama here on monday to try to carve into heller's 1.7 . advantage in the politic average apples. they had their one and only debate last night into day in early voting but state officials guess at about half of the ballots in the midterm election here will be cast before election day the parts of the

preprogram has been encouraging people who are here to see the president to leave and take a detour on their way home to go and vote. leyland. leland: peter ducey, elko, nevada. will check back in as the president takes the stage. with that we bring in nevada talk radio host alan stock. we heard from peter. president is on his way and former president obama is headed there in the next day or so. who has the bigger coattails in nevada? >> hard to say. were a purple state right now and so i think barack obama will have enthusiasm to his minions and certainly donald trump has been an amazing stump speaker here in las vegas. he's been at the gathered 16, 18000 people during the last election. i was at a rally in the venetian were there was ten or 12 dozen people out there and he brings people out big time.

leland: i was listening to adam lambert running for governor there in nevada. he talked about we have the present on appointment in elko, nevada economy is on fire, all thanks to donald trump it james, democrat, back in 1982 claim that phrase. it's the economy, stupid. the economy is a great wire any of these races in nevada? what is the opposition to president trump there? >> where people who moved here from california and they bring money and part of the economy. sometimes they bring the politics with them as well. we also have an enthused democratic party and left-wing organization, well-financed. and they are well executed as well. part of the issue is the well-organized left and the other side of the coin, the right, i'm not sure, is as well-organized. leland: why not? >> well, because we are not working. most people on the out our

working and the time to be part of a mob. that is exactly -. leland: we have seen mobs on both sides with all respect and will last night attack nancy pelosi and quite a public fashion. is that a fair criticism to say republicans are too busy working in order to organize effective effectively? >> groups of the left that have hired a lot of young people who are very young and out of high school just barely in college and pass on college and these young people are up there working day and night to be able to get there cause across. i think that most of the young people on the right are going to college and are working in is a mindset. a lot of the folks on the left are being paid for it and part of organizations that i debate on a regular basis and they are successful because they get

people out in every appearance last night you mentioned dean heller and jackie debated before they did in our local cbs affiliate they had demonstrators all over the place. a lot of arm -. leland: move item to the adam race republican they're running for governor and attorney general. where does that fit in in the heller senate race? we look at them in the same way that we have to look at each one individually? >> i think each one have their own strengths. adam is not governor but just running against the democrats and also not governor and the problem with the two of them is they have not debated at all. there unknown quantities when it comes to debating each other in a fight dean heller and jackie rosen to debate so at least they gave people a little bit of an idea of what it might be like. leland: real quickly.

what are the core issues in nevada? what are the trigger points for voters there right now? >> i think that education is an issue and taxes keep them down and jobs are integral. illegal immigration is certainly a huge issue as well. we've got a variety of things really got right now. i think the selection could see a large turnout. leland: he is hammering home the point in the very beginning that transplants from california and trying to tie any delegate candidate to those values in telephone or politics. good to see you. we appreciate the insights. leland: christian. kristin: you are taking a look at houston, texas where senator tom cruise is not on stage making his case for another term in the senate. present job is set to join him monday on the campaign trail in houston and on the right you got former vice president joe biden

rowling voters in las vegas for democratic candidates. with weeks to go all these heavy hitters really hitting the campaign trail hard and still had early voters are heading to the polls in several states that either voter fraud or voter suppression in all these tight races. we have a panel to break it all down. destination mercury, details on the seven-year mission to the planet. miles on every purchase, every day... not just "airline purchases". think about all the double miles you could be earning... (loud) holy moley that's a lot of miles!!! shhhhh! ♪ what's in your wallet? shhhhh! in the movies, a lot of times,

i tend to play the tough guy. but i wasn't tough enough to quit on my own. not until i tried chantix. chantix, along with support, helps you quit smoking. it reduced my urge to smoke to the point that i could stop. when you try to quit smoking, with or without chantix, you may have nicotine withdrawal symptoms. some people had changes in behavior or thinking, aggression, hostility, agitation, depressed mood, or suicidal thoughts or actions with chantix. serious side effects may include seizures, new or worse heart or blood vessel problems, sleepwalking or allergic and skin reactions which can be life-threatening. stop chantix and get help right away if you have any of these. tell your healthcare provider if you've had depression or other mental health problems. decrease alcohol use while taking chantix. use caution when driving or operating machinery. the most common side effect is nausea. my favorite role so far? being a non-smoker. no question about it. talk to your doctor about chantix. there lots of people who are confused about which medicare plan is right for them. hey,

kristin: thousands of protesters gathered in london to call for a second referendum on the brexit. organizers say hundreds of thousands of people depart in the people's vote march. it culminated at a rally in parliament square london mayor because the carpet was in here. >> were saying some of the promises made two years ago clearly have not materialized no one was talking about how bad the brexit deal. but no one talked about any deal whatsoever. the circumstances for the first time the british published and have a say. they should have the option to what. kristin: british people voted to beat the by a narrow margin. teresa mae has without another

public vote on the subject. leland: justice department revealed the first federal chart is showing the russians are continuing their interference in these charges are for the 2018 midterm elections. it's national security advisor john bolton is heading to russia. gillian turner joins us live in the details. we know how john bolton has been with the russians before and his feelings about them but those are intense meetings. >> i would anticipate of it if i were them i be nervous but meanwhile the first official federal charges against russia were interfering in the 2016 election were revealed yesterday in court documents. they show a complaint filed against russian woman brusque you are safe as part of a conspiracy to use social media to a beer. she worked for the same social media farm indicted by special counsel robert mueller earlier

this year. statement reads in part -- the department of homeland security insists moving forward the outlook is much rosier for the upcoming midterms in 2020. they also admit the challenge is far from over. >> we continue to the russians and increase the iranian and other chinese actors continue to use social media to influence the american public and to sow discord and increase divisiveness. that something that is probably a tool of the trade for them right now. we continue to see that activi activity. kristin: robert mueller's beat goes on. his team is a basket and into the 25th election faces a critical week this weekend. deputy attorney general rod rosenstein slated to testify in a poster session and lawmakers will sides of the aisle was in on that hearing. >> i like to be more transparent

because people have questions. the idea it will happen with just two members from the republican party or two members from a democratic party in a class by setting which means one thing. people will never know what a separate completely on inseparable. >> john bolton will arrive in russia and meet with foreign minister. the big ticket item on his agenda is believed to be a 30 -year-old nuclear treaty that bolton wants to terminate. leland. leland: we see before how strong the ministration has been insane they told the russians to knock it off in terms of interfering with our elections and put an end to this. it means the phone rang and they did not get the message. what is left for john bolton to say in this meeting or in others that he has that perhaps will get through? >> i don't think there's i think that is a bit troubling halfway across the world to deliver the message in person makes a

difference and having it come from bolton who as you mentioned earlier is no problem being very tough and very forthright with his counterpart there. maybe that will make some difference. kristin: you look at the ms. information campaign coming from russia right now on all these social media sites, twitter, instagram and they are really tough to spot. is sometimes hard to know what a campaign ad and was coming from one of these russian but. kristin: if you believe facebook they say they're increasingly good at it. they'll have to put metal to the metal and the last time we were looking for it. we didn't know it was there but this time we know about it and have heads up and develop these tools. billions of dollars in tools so we will -. leland: operative word there, if you believe. [laughter] >> there's a lot of hope but no chance. kristin: such a huge test for them. test to see how they do in this

post twice of the world. a few weeks ago but when he returned, voters are besides are faced with a very tight races. voter suppression or voter fraud, our political panel weizen on the claims made. us lawmakers say they should be sears consulate is for saudi arabia following the death of jamal khashoggi. how will affect the relationship.

our dad was in the hospital. because of smoking. but we still had to have a cigarette. had to. but then, we were like. what are we doing? the nicodermcq patch helps prevent your urge to smoke all day. nicodermcq. you know why, we know how.

leland: welcome back. a lot of news by the minute. german chancellor angela merkel and other european leaders joining american lawmakers saying effectively the saudis are probably line. last night the kingdom came out with a definition for the death of columnist jamal khashoggi sadie died during a the site in that nations consulate in turkey. garrett tenney joining us more with the response from capitol hill on this. it is a little believe the saudis would be an

understatement -. reporter: they may have best surmise level of trust that a lot of lawmakers are putting into this latest inflation when he said he trusted them as much as he trusted destination sushi. the members of both parties are now demanding the us take some kind of action against saudi arabia. republican senator bob corker said in part -- story they had told about jamal khashoggi disappearance changes with each passing day. we should not assume the latest story hold water. they can undergo their own of education at the us ministration was make its own independent, credible determination of monthly for jamal khashoggi murder under the global investigation as required by law. democratic and adam schiff said -- the statement was probably do because he found the explanation that jamal khashoggi found died in a despite credible

and it was written to the us killing its $110 billion arms deal with the kingdom as a response. yesterday the president did suggest he is open to us spotting in other ways. president trump: i would prefer if there are some form of sanction or what we may determine to do, if anything, because this was a lot of people talking about people pretty high up and i'd prefer we don't use as a vision canceling the 110 billion-dollar worth of work which made 600,000 jobs. reporter: sections appear to be a a wide range of possible these for what those actions can look like and how effective they may be and how ultimately what kind and how strong of a message they sent to the saudi kingdom about this behavior. leland: all right. garrett tenney live in washington. more reaction throughout the weekend and former fbi director

james call me saying about jamal khashoggi death here is the tweet. the united states should be shining a light for the world modeling a democracy that values truth, respects repress complex human rights and stance against murderers from oppression and bigotry. trump and their public and party are dimming that light. but that in contrast with voice heard from lindsey graham and other will begin senators as well. kristin: early voting has started in several states as we count down to november 6 midterms. voters on both sides of the public while making accusations of voter fraud or voter suppression particularly in states where the races are especially tight. no surprise there. during us now to discuss travis, senior vice president at madison strategies and josh sherman, aggregation structure at priorities usa.

let's go to two states in the segment. georgia and north dakota. let's start with georgia because that is where 33000 voter education appellations have been suspended under this new exact match law which requires for those that don't know it, it requires your government issued id and the name listed on their voter rolls to be identical. we are talking not even i-can be in the wrong place. just, let's start with you. what you make of this law and the impact is already having on the surface? >> it makes it harder for people to vote and probably impacts african-american who are more likely to vote for democratic candidates. it's easy and we should not put out more barriers. there is no evidence that there's actually like that fraud so the idea that of this talking point where we need to prevent fraud, there is no evidence of that. there is the occasional case hereinafter you can count them on one hand basically. 33000 voters, those are 53000 voters who now if they go and

jump to the troops and but the effort maybe they could vote but it gets harder to dissuade them from doing it. in america we value our democracy to make it easier to vote not harder be seven times, what you think? >> left her up something. the word exact match never show up anywhere. it doesn't actually stop anyone from voting. what it does is voter education navigation does not match your government issued id you're placed in a pending dennis. twenty-six months over two years to rectify that information who notifies you about the discrepancy. also important to note you can to vote on the day of the election. all you need to do is show up to the polling place with your photo id and they connect by that issue at the polling place for it to say the thought. or disenfranchise anyone from voting is absolutely far from the truth. kristin: how will it prevent illegal voting? >> it prevents illegal voting by encouraging clean voter rolls.

in georgia there was a precinct in the primary election where it was over 240% turnout as opposed to the amount of registered voter so there is a need in the state of georgia to clean the roles and make sure all the people who are supposed about our voting. kristin: now you have this uncomfortable dynamic in this race. you have the democrats abrams who is trying to become the nation's first black female governor and she's essentially saying her opponent who is the secretary of state should resign because of all of this. in addition to all this happening this has become the crux of this whole race. how do you see this plane out with just a few weeks to go, josh? >> this is going to see if it continues their election a bit there's no way one candidate in the election should be controlling the rules for the election. it's outrageous. he should do the right thing and take a setback and stacy is

right about that. we'll see what happens. she's one 100% right. kristin: terms, i'm guessing you don't agree? >> it's disingenuous to act like she so concerned about the integrity of the vote. her new georgia project which is responsible for registering to vote a lot of the individuals for the discrepancies on roles as their estimate 14 paid canvassers for the organization that are now facing charges for filing fraudulent voter registration forms. she has her own problem when it comes to election integrity and she needs to be set. kristin: this argument is not just plain out in georgia. it's in north dakota where native american native americans who largely vote democratic in their dealing with some insular. a requirement they provide their legal name, current address, date of birth but the problem is a lot of native americans to live on streets believe on a reservation. what impact will that have on

that race? >> heidi high camp won by three couples. in 2013 will begin started to try to make the change. it went into effect october 8. after the primary rules have changed in the primary. i think i read there was to be 700 potential voters who are blocked by this and have to go find street addresses that don't exist. that the margin of the election more than the margin was in 2012. i think it can motivate native american voters on the reservations to overcome these hurdles and turnout and i hope that's what happens. it's an instance where it's harder to vote rather than easier to vote for people who are legally eligible for the exercise. kristin: travis, i'm out of time but quick. just response. >> i would say at the end of the day need to make sure there are special circumstances need to forward and north dakota is one of them. they are a very votes it can decide the election in florida

500 votes decided to have election and there were 2100 count of double voting in 2016. we need to be sure were encouraging access but the same time rooting out broad. kristin: leave it there. thank you, guys b5 it is a tight race in one of pennsylvania's congressional districts. it had a midterm spoke with democrat [inaudible] last week. his opponent joins us to weigh in on his campaign nice to see if it did of texas under a state of emergency following devastating flooding white folks there say the danger is far from over. >> very importantly, for many people across the entire state of texas understand this. that is you need to -- [inaudible] make a smart choice. replace one meal or snack a day with glucerna... made with carbsteady to help manage blood sugar... ...and end the day with a smile.

enough to make up 12 points? >> we don't know what the actual deficit is at this point. i stay focused on talking to the voters about the issues and i have read this campaign about poor things. if you want higher taxes and more regulations which kill jo jobs, unaffordable health care and we are a fan of centricity's don't want to vote for me to vote for my opponent. leland: that sounds an awful lot like the president some speech. >> well, this is an area people have remember the president and vice president one by ten points in the 2016 election. it has been a real harbinger of how the state goes and as i'm not talking voters i'm encouraged that they like the direction of how their country and economy is going at this point. leland: if all of that is true

any point out the president when your district by a sizable margin why do the polls have you down so much. where's the disconnect with voters? been well, we had to wait to election day to see who comes out. noble is perfect. we saw that in the 2016 election. i can tell you this. is also a lot of what i would call misleading things that are taking place. my opponent is someone who is trying to position himself as someone who is bipartisan, someone who is a moderate. you go back and look at his voting record of the last five years he's up progressive caucus and a whip and front and center to what many people are referring to the radical left. my view having grown up in pennsylvania grandson of a steelworker and coalminer pennsylvanians are too smart to fall for tricks like that. leland: imagine that embellishment in politics but i don't think it's happened before. you talk about where you're from

and that is become an issue in this race. will play an ad for mr. cartwright and get your reaction. here's the at. >> to new jersey or pennsylvan pennsylvania, what do we do? were going to pennsylvania. >> john, wall street banker, lives in new jersey. >> imax cartwright in approve of this message. leland: they are calling you a carpetbagger, sir. >> here's the real deal. for a kid who grew up in pennsylvania in bethlehem and easton educated in public school and as i said, and son of a bethlehem steel worker, coalminer where we grew up with good, blue-collar working-class values the first 25 years of my life were spent in pennsylvania and i went and got a degree at [inaudible] university and mba at columbia university in finance. i left penciling it because there were no jobs here.

i worked and traveled the country living in new jersey for 25 years. i now live in pennsylvania and it is shameful for somebody who grew up in canada, educated in private schools with the silver soon in his mouth to say that i'm not a pennsylvanian. by the way, my family is still here, mom, dad, brothers, cousins, uncles. i love to make it an issue but is not an issue. people care about the economy. leland: we have your sponsor know it something you and vice president will talk about. equal time this time of year. we always try to get both candidates send them out and we are out of it. present you been here. good luck. in addition to come back anyti anytime, win or lose. leland: okay. thank you very much. leland: christian. kristin: minutes away from -- ng, and back pain made it hard to sleep and get up on time. then i found aleve pm. the only one to combine a safe sleep aid,

time for someone new. the seven tens of thousands of security forces are alert in afghanistan after attacks on polling places. ask and spend hours in line waiting to cast a vote today and in the chaotic start to permit elections. we are light with more. reporter: there does appear to

be high turnout despite the risks the voters have been taking despite turning up at a polling station. voters to get up to a late start in many places there were technical problems with a new biometric voting equipment and several polling stations, first thing in the morning. many people were left waiting in long lines to vote or even discourage entirely by those delays. there's a lot of enthusiasm here, 200450 candidates are competing for 250 seats in afghanistan's parliament but politics and afghanistan is a risky business. two candidates have already been killed during campaigning and as many polling stations did not even open today. because of the security concerns. there also have been many attacks for several tax on polling stations throughout the election day. two in kabul and three people were killed in a suicide bombing just as the polling station was to close. several police officers were among the dead and so far there's been no claim responsibly but the taliban has vowed to disrupt these elections

and of course in canada under although they had closed today they will reopen in some areas on sunday because of those earlier delays and results. i'm not expected for a few more weeks. kristen. kristin: kitty, thank you. when you think of the bravery and courage they have to show when they go to vote puts it in perspective as we head into our own election day before makes it thank you for what we have here and for the roughly eight or 9000 soldiers on the ground in afghanistan. presidents rally starts in one minute. foxnews .com for that. in the meantime, news continues from new york. you can see from elko, nevada presidential seal now on the podium.
