problems. let me refresh your memory, in 2000 they contributed to the florida recount mayhem. two years later primary election in the county was a disaster. with broken voting machines. uncounted ballots. no show poll workers. 2003 they get their act together? no. more than 17,000 mail-in votes were returned as undeliverable. in 2004, county officials grossly mishandled absentee ballots keeping thousands from reaching voters in time. it's only gotten worse. more than a decade later. in 2016, the county was sued once again for mishandling absentee ballots and was also caught illegally destroying ballots even as the lawsuit over primary outcome was pending. the woman responsible for that is still in charge of county broward's votes today and that is mind-boggling. yesterday on this program, marco rubio denounced the process for violating florida's election laws.

today president trump joined in on the attack. >> if you look at broward county, they have had a blank.e history.

vote totals weren't supposed to do that. with that republicans and democrats alike are very concerned about broward for different reasons. democrats concerned that maybe a goofy ballot may have cost a lot of people to overlook the senate race because it was tucked in the lower left bloat

instructions may have cost bill nelson votes. scott camp, marco rubio and others looking at broward county's recent history of breaking the law. illegally destroying ballots. raising suspicions in their minds as well. if this once again it's all about florida and it is all focused on southeast florida. >> brian: the way i understand it and craig, correct me. by tomorrow broward county has to tell us who voted for who and what the totals are. >> yeah. >> brian: right? so 30 minutes after the polls close they are supposed to submit all their ballots. they didn't. for a republican candidate to win, and then to hear about uncounted ballots, and then see their lead dissipate knowing that they broke the rules already, why is that voter suppression? you just can't have votes coming in for weeks. the kids had off for school for a reason. it was election day. >> and that's exactly governor scott's position on this. the democratic position would be because of the blunders that exist in

broward county that go way back in time under the leadership of snipes who was appointed by former governor jeb bush. she is a republican appointee. they have qualms with long-running blunders that they say have affected democrats and republicans alike. and, again, they point to what they think may be either a mechanical abrasion issue or a funky design of a ballot in which case a race like this one can be easily overlooked. this is something though that's got to come out in the wash. we will find out in the course of a recount if there is something to that or not. >> brian: by the way when you mean funky ballot bottom left you would know you voted ballot senate race. up top was the governor race. everyone seemed to vote as governor and not as many for senator. a lot could be you had exciting brand new

today. >> now in arizona, all of a sudden, out of the wilderness, they find a lot of votes and she is -- the other candidate is just winning by a hair. >> brian: now we're joined by trace gallagher. trace, i understand sinema has expanded her lead up to over 21,000 now today; is that correct? >> it is and it's all about the mail-in ballots and where they fall, brian. the way it works, brian, in arizona if the signature on the mail-in ballot does not appear to match the envelope on the sealed envelope election workers in all 15 counties call voters and try to cure or fix the issue in fact. they call it curing. maricopa and pima county rural areas where kyrsten sinema performed better were allowing ballots to be cured after the election so republicans sued to stop the process saying calling voters after election day is a violation of state law. they argue that if some counties were allowed to cure ballots for several days after the election, then all counties had to be

allowed to do the same thing. and today a judge agreed. giving the entire state until november 14th to end the so-called curing of ballots. experts applauded the added oversight but they say it really should only affect a small number of votes. president trump, you said earlier, weighed. in he also said and i'm quoting here, just out in arizona signatures don't match. electoral corruption call for a new election. we must protected our democracy. though it is very highly unlikely that a new election will happen in arizona. brian? >> brian: we might have to wait until next wednesday, right, trace? >> exactly. next wednesday, the 14th you should find out by 7:00 eastern time exactly what the full-time count should be. >> brian: meanwhile, trace, i know you are occupied with the fire racing through southern california. thanks for concentrating on arizona for us. i appreciate it? >> yep. >> brian: wiping out everything. chris hahn radio host and tied chuck schumer he joins us now. i don't really see much of a

scandal in arizona. the more people i talk to from arizona they say this is the way we do things which is something we probably examine. pause we do have to wait until next wednesday. i understand, chris, with sinema up top, she does have to tighten her belt because the counties that have been, the ballots are up to 457 uncounted and some of them are in strong red areas. how do you expect this to go? >> i expect sinema to win. i think this margin will hold, probably she might even increase it a little bit. most of the outstanding ballots are even in her congressional district or in maricopa county which is the home of the biggest city in arizona. she is going to win this election. i think most republican strategists i have talked to last couple days feel the same. and they are just counting the ballots out there. i know the president is trying to put a spin on it, but, no. they are counting. that's what they do after an election. they have mail-ins there. the worst thing an election commissioner wants is a close election. you wind up going a couple days after and people get frustrated.

we are in instant gratification culture and we have to be patient. they don't take office until january 1. we have plenty of time to figure it out. >> brian: if you are rick scott do you blame him for being ticked off today even though he is the governor of the state is he looking at broward county and cannot believe that county and palm can are the two ones who don't even get close to doing what they are supposed to do again and that is telling us how many people voted 30 minutes after the polls. 65 other counties did it no problem. >> you know, if i'm rick scott, i'm thanking broward county. because they messed up the design of their ballot and 25,000 people didn't vote for united states senator. those same 25,000 people voted for agricultural commissioner. i'm pretty sure they weren't excited about agriculture commissioner. he should be thanking them not using the power of his office to try continue to tim date election workers who have until tomorrow to give him the results. if he has a problem with the way things are going there, that's what the courts are for. he went into court today to seek some relief. he got access to those

ballots. i think we should let it play out. see where the votes go. they will count all the votes. really the margin of victory here might be those 25,000 ballots. so he should be happy for that incompetence. and i don't like that incompetent at the bus stop at all. i don't think there is a lot of dubious activity when it goes to counting the votes there right now. there is dubious activity when the governor of the state of florida utilizes his office to intimidate those workers and then conservatives send a mob to protest outside of them as they are trying to do their job. >> brian: right. by the way, chris, i don't know if you have a monitor there we are actually splitting with a live shot of fort lauderdale as they ask each other how do we get into this mess again? when you say -- when you look at this, if you are rick scott, i don't know what he could do from county to county. but, in broward county, which as you know is mostly blue, they have been riddled with problems. in 2,000 we know what they did broken machines uncounted ballots.

undeliverable ballots. absentee ballots. in 2016, chris, they closed the -- and posted the election results 30 minutes before the election actually ended while the polls were still open in the county. they have been a mess. so, right now they are holding everything up. so if you look at what they are doing. they're the ones who missed their deadline. >> yeah. look, the deadline is tomorrow at noon. and they are going -- hopefully they will make that deadline. and, remember, that's one of the biggest counties in florida. these small counties where they seem to go overwhelmingly for scott and desantis. they don't have as many people as broward. there are more people in your building right now than in some of those counties. there is a reason why this takes a little bit longer and hopefully they get it done right. we need a uniform system so this doesn't happen. >> brian: let's you and i go down to broward county and make them drill days before to get it done. bigger counties with more ballots and mable to pull it off. again we are stuck in florida and again stuck with controversy. >> i agree. >> brian: do you know who is getting rich the lawyers.

>> i'm with you, brian, but you are buying. >> brian: absolutely. thanks, chris have a fantastic weekend. >> thank you, brian. brian we will see how that goes. midterm elections have done nothing to stem the left's meltdown over russia. and the mueller investigation. that story is next. ♪ ♪

have to come in through the ports of entry. >> brian: good thing the president stopped before he went to paris he had a lot to say. the caravan is snaking toward the u.s. border. president trump is responding as you just heard to its approach by tightening u.s. asylum laws. i'm very curious about this to see if it will withstand the test. proclamation signed this morning the president said nobody caught illegally entering the u.s. will be allowed to claim asylum after the fact. they will never be citizens. the move is already facing a legal challenge. arthur a former immigration judge and fellow at the study for immigration studies and joins us now. andrew, first tell me what this executive order with this proclamation says. >> the executive order actually bars the entry of individuals who are entering the united states illegally to the united states. he is using his authority under section 212 f and 215 a of the ina to do that. >> brian: if you try to sneak in and go and claim asylum if you don't go to the port of entry, you are never going to be a citizen.

so you better go to the port of entry. and you better go in the right way. and then we will hear what you have to say and see if it adds up to the level that we accept you for asylum, right? >> that's correct. and what the president is attempting to do is to channel everybody who has what's called a credible fear claim through those ports of entry so they can enter in an orderly and legal fashion rather than sneaking across the border where we have to use our border patrol agents to go out and find them. puts huge stress on the 16,000 border patrol agents who control the 1900 miles of the border every day. and it makes the system break down. quite frankly, this is the best possible solution that we can have, to have those people go through the port of entry. also give those people encouragement to apply in a third country, mexico, which is an asylum granting country as well. >> brian: i read that in the last fiscal year 140,000 central and south americans have come to this country

illegally. so if you ferry them to the port of entry some will say this takes forever. the process is going to be so long, word is going to get out that it's not easy to get in this country anymore and it will have a positive ripple effect. that's the hope, correct? >> that's exactly the hope. right now we are seeing about 2,000 people a day who are admissible into the united states who are united states. that's before the caravan of individuals from the northern triangle countries of el salvador, honduras and guatemala even make it to the united states. you can imagine how much worse it's going to be once they do actually make it to this country. the president's is attempting to proactively, again, funnel those individuals into the ports of entry where they can be processed in an orderly fashion. >> brian: do it the right way, work yourself toward the green card and make the green card citizenship or do it the wrong way and blow it. you are never going to be a citizen, there is something something called spared from deportation by qualifying

for a lesser status known for removal. that's in the bylaws. we will see if this can with stabbed a legal challenge. you told me in the break you think this is very creative and this is a very well-thought out provision. >> i really think that the president has had the experience of having his other executive orders and proclamations subject to many layers of judicial review. i think they have done a very good job of crafting this one to sustain those challenges. >> brian: the aclu will be there to test it. thank you so much, andrew arthur. >> thank you, brian. >> brian: okay. let's move ahead. after a disappointing midterm, the left is attacking g.o.p. voting women based on their race. that sorr story is next. tucker is back after the break. he will break down the election results with joe lieberman. i may be coming to a town near you going to malden with kurt chilling howie

palm county right now, it's not that you want to suppress the vote. it's because they are not following the rules like broward county broke them, but we -- broward county broke the rules but at least they complied with the court order today, palm beach county is not. the scott camp will have a statement shor shortly. now this: tuesday's midterms didn't quite turn into the blue wave democrats were hoping for florida's side. the aftermath they decided to scapegoat women as a group. on "the view," yep, it's still on. joy behar says republican women are simply too stupid to vote for anyone else. >> the women who still like him say that he is a protector. so, that's what they say, that he protects. >> their way of life and their values. >> they don't know the difference between a predator and protector. >> brian: meanwhile, in one vogue article, it blasted white women saying, quote: as sure as black women have proven themselves to be the often under appreciated backbone of the democratic party, white women voters

are establishing themselves as maddingly confusingly unsisterly. not sure what that means which is why i don't get vogue. online chelsea handler tweeted this 59% of white women voted for ted cruz. now, follow me here. we need to vote for the best interest of others and stop thinking about ourselves. i am not deep enough to follow that. but allie beth stuckey is. she has a great podcast. >> thank you. >> brian: alli, make sense of this. are white women too stupid to vote for anybody else? >> i don't think so. but, apparently that's the thought on the left. we hear this a lot not just in regards to white women but that if you are a conservative, if you are a republican, you are not just wrong but you are a bad person. and right now why are hearing that especially about white women because they tend to vote at least large portion of them for republican candidates. and what the left, and particularly leftist feminist cannot understand is that it's not that we are voting against the sister hood, it's not that we are voting against women's interests, it's that we have

different values that we do think our in our best interest. we are pro-life. we are pro-second amendment. we are pro-secure borders. s that not bigotry or immoral. they are just our values. >> brian: the thing is i don't feel comfortable reading the intro to this segment. i don't feel comfortable saying white women, black whim. older women. >> right. >> brian: keep segmenting ourselves and putting ourselves in boxes and categories. so counter productive. >> i feel completely uncomfortable writing white women in the article i wrote town hall it's the leftist terminology. what we see which is very troubling on the left is that they insist upon judging people by the color of their skin, by their political affiliation and their sex rather than the content of their character. so, rather than talking to someone like me and asking me about my values, they say you're white, you're wrong because you are a republican. and because you are a woman, you are also a traitor. >> brian: i watched bernie sanders make a comment and i will paraphrase. he says essentially the

reason why stacey abrams and andrew gillum didn't win, it seems, they don't feel -- white people don't feel comfortable yet voting for the first time for a black person but eventually they will. how wrong is that to say, to write, to think? >> of course there are no stats tis particulars whatsoever backing that up. again, i don't even like talking about people based on the color of their skin. i'm sure most white people would say i'm going to vote for someone based on my values. i don't really care what their religion is or what their skin color is that's just not true on the left. it's about you have to fit into their ideology or else you are immoral. >> brian: alli stucky, have a great weekend. >> thank you so much, brian. >> brian: we forge ahead. after tuesday's midterms tucker sat down with former senator, one of the great guys in washington joe lieberman. here is his conversation with independent joe. >> tucker: senator, thanks a lot for joining us tonight. >> i'm delighted, tucker. >> good to be back with you. >> tucker: thank you. so, as the results are coming in last night, and it was clear that the democrats were going to retake the

house of representatives as predicted, msnbc announced that one the top priorities of the incoming controlling party would be to obtain donald trump's tax returns. do you think that the mandate of this election? >> i don't. whether they go for the president's tax returns or not is up to them. but that certainly shouldn't be their priority. i want to give you my personal perspective. i'm the chairman of a group called no labels. we have been working to encourage bipartisan in congress. and this year for the first time we actually got into campaigns of people who were part of what we call the problem solvers calculation. we raised over $50 million. we supported 28 candidates. 14 republicans, 14 democrats. members of the problems solver caucus. 23 won. the democrats who won which i think is why the democrats now control the house were actually more moderate,

independent-minded problem solvers. so i don't think they're going to go to congress to get president trump's tax returns. i think they are going to go to try to get something done for their constituents and their country. >> tucker: so, and i think all of us hope that that happens. >> yes. >> tucker: but, it does raise the question who is in charge of the democratic party? so is that caucus bigger than the alexandria ocasio-cortez caucus which is substantial? >> i don't know how many -- i don't think there are many people who are exactly where congresswoman elect alexandria ocasio-cortez is. a self-proclaimed socialist. i think weak on foreign policy and defense policy. basically wants the government to take over a lot of the economy. but, what worried me when she was elected, tucker, was that a lot of people, including some potential democratic presidential candidates began to run

after some of the positions she was taking, including calling for the abolish now of ice, the immigration and customs enforcement agency. you may disagree with their policies. but how screw a country where there is no group enforcing immigration and customs laws. so i think this is -- what happened yesterday was good for democrats in the house. but it's also a warning. i think they regained the majority by running more moderate candidates in suburbs. and moderate democrats, actually, lost in the senate and that showed, i think, some strength in president trump who worked hard to defeat a lot of those moderate democrats. so there is good news and bad news and warnings for both parties here. and the last thing the democratic party should do, if it wants to have a chance

to win the presidential election in 2020 is to follow after congresswoman elect ocasio-cortez. there is just not many people who believe that in america, thank gods. >> tucker: i don't know how many democratic strategist watch this show. i hope all of them and i hope they write down your advice. senator, great to see you tonight. >> thanks, tucker. good to be with you. >> tucker: thanks. >> brian: all right. joe lieberman, great guy. meanwhile, more breaking news out of florida. we will go back down to florida after this. don't move. tucker carlson not in but he is thinking of .
