but at the end of the day, you know you have a team behind you that can help you. not having to worry about the future makes it possible to make the present as best as it can be for everybody. >> i came to clarksston to ask you one question. are you ready to get this thing done one more time. criminals think they are more powerful than our police and i say not on my watch. >> we are doing good in georgia because we are saying no to stacey abrams. >> time to get brian kemp an eviction notice and put somebody else in the mansion. >> sandra: just a taste in georgia where the senate is the

toss-up race in the rematch for governor is leaning red. >> john: congenial affair, don't you think? can the the democrats send senator warnock back to washington, we'll find out. and a george-based political reporter is on the ground tracking the mood in the closing hours. >> sandra: "america reports" rolls into a second hour here on a friday afternoon. i'm sandra smith in new york. >> john: good to be with you another 60 minutes. counting down to election day, one last weekend to campaign and get out the vote. >> sandra: democrats in new hampshire trying to hold on to a seat they cannot afford to lose there. >> john: hassan bringing in back-up, as her republican challenger don bolduc picks up steam, and one person absent

from the granite state, president biden. >> sandra: ari fleischer standing by, and daron shaw. >> john: hillary vaughn is in durham, new hampshire. who is on the guest list? >> elizabeth warren was just here at the university of new hampshire rallying college students in durham to turn out the vote and vote for senator hassan, but this race is about winning over in dependents and moderates and undecided voters, i asked senator hassan how having a progressive firebrand by her side does that. >> how does having a progressive like senator warren on the campaign trail with you actually help you to win over moderates. >> you just heard her talking about getting out to vote and a great fighter for families.

an would it be helpful to have president biden before election day. >> politico moved the race from lean democrat to toss-up as retired general don bolduc in recent polls is easing into senator hassan's lead, she's feeling the heat and calling in the calvary. more will be hitting the trail with hassan, but president biden, republican nominee for senate don bolduc has continued his town hall tour, over 70 town halls, one in every county in new hampshire. a grassroots style campaign helped him win in the primary and will help him win in the general. >> i proved that you can do a grassroots campaign, that your campaign, you know, worthyness

or your seriousness as a candidate is not based off of money. it's based off of hard work. i got $2 million, she's got near $40 million. and she's got ads, the ads are all lies, people are catching on to that. it's inflation, it's heating and eating. she does not get it. so that's what this election is about. >> senator hassan in front of college students says this election is all about whether or not they will let an extremist like don bolduc deny elections and their rights, a large majority of voters say inflation is the number one issue in this election. >> john: hillary, thank you. >> sandra: i'll dive into some house races we are watching with president biden travelling to reliably blue chicago, the suburbs are key battle grounds there, a place i know very well.

look at chicago in the northeast corner of the state, and some of those surrounding suburbs are really going to count. you look back at the presidential election results of 2020, obviously chicago falling into cook county. this is deep blue, you go into some of the surrounding counties, and look how much closer it gets. will county in particular, kendall county, dupage county, my hometown in particular, and folks travel to the city, very well aware of the crime spike happening there, and real quickly up to wisconsin, while the president is going to illinois, he is noticeably avoiding wisconsin. obviously this is key and i know daron shaw, if we can bring you in from the fox news decision desk, i look at some counties like you do, milwaukee, dane is a big one to watch as we head into election night. what are you watching in particular when it comes to

wisconsin, this being such a key state to watch, when it comes to turnout, daron. >> i think you touched on it. democratic strongholds in milwaukee, dane, madison, where the college campuses are. can you see the democrats get the enthusiasm they had in 2020. it was lacking in 2016, just enough in 2020 to get joe biden over the top, is it there in 2022 in a year republicans are doing well. the question is whether the kind of northern and western counties, more rural, are they going to turn out the way they turned out for trump. it's not clear johnson and other republicans had that pull, that's what we are looking at. >> john: as we see the polls close out tuesday night across the eastern time zone, what will you watch for to see if we are in for a red wave. >> i'll go a little inside baseball here, but a sense of political science it's very difficult for candidates at the statewide level to really outrun disapproval for the incumbent

president. if disapproval -- approval ratings for joe biden are in the high 30s and low 40s, we don't think that candidates are going to be able to get much more than 5 or 6 points above that, so if we are coming in with, you know, data that suggests in georgia and arizona, etc., that biden approval is in the real low 40s, that's a red flag, pun intended, that it's going to be tough for incumbents like warnock and kelly to get to 50%. and can you outrun that looks like a strong prevailing win in the other direction. >> sandra: can't beat his insights. and daron will join us on sunday as well for special coverage. >> john: and if you don't get 50% in georgia, it's a runoff. might not be decided on tuesday. >> sandra: ari fleischer, to sort of build off what we heard, i saw you tweeting about it earlier today. you look back at moments in time

in this country, we had an election, the country seeing such economic peril and you do look at what happened with the turnover of seats, i mean, it was massive back in 2010. >> what i try to do is look at the fundamentals to get a prediction about the future. the polls are close in many places. what are you going to do if everything looks like a jump ball, back to fundamentals. this is joe biden, the party in power, the incumbent party's first term election. since 1962, election of john f. kennedy, 60 years running, only once in history in the last 60 years has the party in power gained seats in the house and that was george w. bush after september 11th when the nation rallied. marry that to an unpopular president, job approval 42%, low, marry that to a bad economy, and 70% of the american people say the country is on the wrong track, history shows it will be a wave election.

the incumbent party has always lost seats in the house, just a question of how many with the exception of bush. joe biden is on his way to a disastrous tuesday night, sandra. >> john: you bring up george bush, in 2004, when wiet -- white suburban women, soccer moms, now moving dramatically toward the republican party prompting this commentary from "the view" sunny hostin. >> i read a poll just yesterday that white republican suburban women are now going to vote republican. >> why? >> almost like roaches voting for raid. >> john: what do you make of that, likening women who vote gop to roaches? >> yeah, keep it up. i mean, just keep saying things like that, you'll have even more women voting republican. i talked previously about fundamentals long-term history, the last 60-year trend, that's

powerful. also recent history. what's happened in american politics. look at what happened in 2021. glenn youngkin won virginia because of suburban voters, they voted republican again. new jersey, democratic governor almost lost his race to an unknown republican candidate because suburbs voted republican again. long island, nassau and suffolk county long island, each more than a million people, republicans won in those counties and the county executive race and the d.a. races. there has been a trend under joe biden of the suburbs coming back to republicans while rural areas have stayed republican. this, too, is why it's going to be such a wave election on tuesday night. >> sandra: that was your reaction to sunny hostin on republicans and calling suburban women roaches. joy reid said this about inflation. >> what they have done, they have taught people the word inflation. most people never use that word

in their lives are using it now because they have been taught it, including on tv, including in newspapers, they have been taught this word. >> sandra: your reaction. >> how out of touch. has she ever bought anything? i just got my home heating oil delivered, i live in the northeast. it's up 50% from what i paid one year ago. you know, the only way you say inflation is a made up word because you don't pay your bills, you are so rich you don't have to worry about it. >> john: i want to ask you about new hampshire senate race, politico has moved the race between don bolduc and hassan into a toss-up category, and democrats spent tens of millions trying to get bolduc through the primary they thought it would be a walk for hassan. if he beats her on tuesday night, stunning refutiation.

>> it's going to haunt them after this election. viewers should keep their eyes on new hampshire and other races, when you say it's a 1 or 2-point race, what number is the incumbent. hassan is 46, 47, a lot of undecided voters, and same things in other close senate races. incumbent is at 46, 47, 48%. that means they are below 50. the undecided and the way the election almost always vote for the challenger and another reason the democrats are in trouble tuesday night. >> sandra: great insights there. thanks for joining us. >> john: thanks, ari. >> thank you. >> sandra: fox news alert, career criminal will be in manhattan courtroom arraigned after he allegedly raped and robbed a woman thursday morning. she was out for a jog.

>> john: october jobs report was better than expected but are americans buying it as inflation only gets worse. >> sandra: we will speak to former home depot and chrysler c.e.o. bob nardelli. he is here, can't wait to pick his brain. he'll join us next. >> inflation is a bear and we have to do everything we can to fight inflation. people are feeling it at the pump, at the grocery store, but on the other hand, the labor market is very strong. so it's a mixed market. all that being said, we have to do everything we can to address inflation. you need to know about the va cash out loan from newday usa. it's called the newday 100 because it lets veterans borrow up to 100% of their home's value. not just 80% like some typical loans. that extra cash can make a huge difference in these times of skyrocketing prices. here's more good news: home values have skyrocketed too. that means even more cash! take out an average of $60,000 to pay down your high-rate credit card debt, consolidate your second mortgage, personal loans, and car loans,

yorkers ask how many more incidents can happen before leaders make changes to keep criminals behind bars. lauren green with the latest. >> so many unanswered questions in this story but right now, 29-year-old fanner is scheduled to be in criminal court, he is now being arraigned. he was already known to police. he was suspected in two assaults, including one last month. he was arrested at the new york port authority bus terminal trying to board a greyhound bus several hours after he was suspected of robbing and raping a 43-year-old woman, she was left bloody and shoe less. they tracked him down after he used a stolen credit card in midtown. 29-year-old karl fanner was charged with rape, larceny, pred predatory sexual assault and invalid use of a credit card,

and charged with attacks on women october 6th and one last march. reacting to the front page arrest story, lee zeldin tweeted that this is the reality of life in kathy hochul's new york. vote like your life depends on it because it does. about that arraignment, how it's going to go. fanner willp an in criminal court. he will likely be represented by a public defender because he is homeless or undomiciled, and then guilty or not guilty. we don't know if he will be assigned bail, cash or no cash bail. >> john: coming up, joe c cardinelli, and another case,

the police chief appealing to kathy hochul to do something to give judges discretion to keep violent offenders in jail as opposed to turning them loose on the streets with no cash bail. >> sandra: october jobs report is out, the last big look at the american economy before election day, four days from now. it shows unemployment that headline number did tick up to 3.7%, from 3.5. and 261,000 jobs were added. the "l.a. times," inflation chills holiday sales. consumers rely on credit cards. u.s.a. today, americans already behind on bills heading into winter. wish americans will spend this holiday season. inflation is eating into budgets and that's definitely top of mind heading into the election. let's bring in bob nardelli, former home depot and chrysler c.e.o. based on the headlines and what people are feeling, a majority are worried about the direction

we are going. taking on extra jobs. but marty walsh, the chief of staff to the president, he is still taking a victory lap on what's happening right now. listen. >> somewhere in the future there might be a recession. i think right now what we are no cussed on is bringing down inflationary pressures and make sure we move our economy forward. stock market is still strong. job hiring is still strong. still many openings in the country. lots of positive signs. >> sandra: obviously a labor secretary, but ron klain, too, we played that out last hour, but what is the story, bob, happy to have you on today. >> thanks so much, sandra. we have been talking about this for months and i think unfortunately a lot of my projections have come true. let's start at the top when you talked about the jobs number, the 261,000. you know, i always like to dig

down one more level. 247,000 of those, sandra, were in transportation, 84,000, hospitality, 210,000. but, where was the reduction? information down 17,000. financial, down 10,000. professional services, down 14,000. education, health and service, down 5,000. so what we are seeing here is, you know, retail is picking up, transportation post covid, you are going to see an increase there. but not manufacturing jobs the core of our business, core of our gdp were not there. that's number one. nu number two. job jumpers, they have gotten 15.2% increase, but if you look at where the jobs were created, the midwest and the southeast have really suffered relative to job replacement. again, the core of manufacturing. >> sandra: a fair point. and when you look at what's happening with the consumer,

bob, i like to make sure i point out that you are formerly -- home depot founder, chrysler c.e.o., you know the behavior of the consumer in the country like the back of your hand. and our latest polling shows people are cutting back, changing their spending behaviors. this continues to go up and up since march. when asked how much has your family had to cut back to afford necessities, 71% say a lot or some of the time. only 29% say not much or not at all. so people are changing their behaviors because of the way they feel in this current economic environment. and that matters. >> yes, sandra, let me tell you. you mentioned, i worked at home depot and chrysler. two of the biggest indicators on the economy, housing starts, down. automobile production down, in the auto industry, for every one auto worker there is about ten

support jobs that go into there. same with housing. if you think about framers, electrician, plumbers, people laying concrete, grout, etc. so those are two big indicators people should watch relative to what you are saying. spending is up, spending is up because of credit cards. if you look at the major banks, savings accounts, from 15% down to 4%. so we are seeing continual negative impact of what's going on here. this administration is basically doing nothing to resolve inflation. they have turned it over to the fed. so chairman powell has taken the following approach. hammer nail. he's the hammer, and all of us are the nails, and we are getting pounded. administration can do a number of things, a number of things. one of the biggest is if they would reverse their position on energy. think about that. ari talked about filling his tank with fuel oil for heating, 750 gallon tank, 12 to $1,500.

diesel fuel, we would not see the cost of transportation now ending up on retail shelves where we byproduct. >> it's very real. >> things that could be done to attack inflation that are not being done, sandra. >> sandra: it's very real. and while the inflation reduction act has been passed, even the white house can't say that that's going to do anything substantial to inflation, so it's a tough task for the fed to try to rein this in. bob, thanks for joining us today. appreciate your time, sir. >> thank you. >> sandra: you go back to larry kudlow, he was on the program yesterday, basically making the point that while the fed has a tough task, it's going to in there i recollect a lot of pain on people, he wishes they would be tougher and go faster and should have hiked a full percentage point rather than three-quarters to get this done, and the slower approach is going to inflict more pain over the long run.

>> john: he says powell should be attacking the inflation rather than the consumer. the top story, the midterm elections. final push for georgia senate candidates with the race still a toss-up. what could be the deciding factor that moves the needle. >> sandra: all right, we'll talk to georgia political writer who has been all over this race. what she is watching, that's up next. it's all around us again. the inflation buzz word. as if inflation magically goes away and then suddenly returns. but inflation never really goes away. each year - by some measure - the dollar declines in value. well - here's something else that doesn't go away... gold and silver. rosland capital - a trusted leader in helping people acquire precious metals. gold bullion, lady liberty gold and silver proofs, and our premium coins, can help you preserve your wealth. call rosland capital at 800-630-8900

great to spend some time with you. there's a new fox news poll out that shows an interesting shift toward herschel walker, this is people saying they are certain to vote or already voted. walker has a one point advantage over warnock and as you can see, it's quite a change from the way the numbers were back in september. to what do you attribute walker's rise in the polls and why have not the scandals had more of an impact on his candidacy. >> walker came in with a high floor, well-known in georgia, beloved across the state, a superfar, football player for the university of georgia, heroic back story, came up from a very small town in georgia and just incredibly well-known. even people have their security passes as 3434, that was his number in the university of

georgia, so he's just so well-known across the state. he came in very, very well-known and very well liked. he won the gop primary here with 70% of the vote, just demolished all of his other rivals. so he's been strong in this the entire type. he's been able to make up that ground from about 43% to about 47, 48%. i think his debate performance played a really big role in that. he had a very strong debate against rafael warnock and people did not know how he was going to respond. and then also i think coming in to these last few weeks, governor brian kemp is polling so far ahead of stacey abrams, way up over 50%, and republicans in the state are very hopeful that that incredible strength of governor kemp is also giving herschel walker a boost, consolidating around him in a way they were not doing in september and october. >> john: both candidates also have drawbacks as well.

when asked whether warnock is out you have touch, 44%, and walker is unqualified, 47% very or somewhat, positive aspects and the same negatives. >> herschel walker has higher negatives than warnock, ten point spread, does he understand the issues, is he qualified, does he have the experience. but voters are very willing to look past that because control of the senate could be at stake, and joe biden has about a 37% approval rating in georgia. and so that is really giving herschel walker to make this a referendum, he's able to make a referendum on joe biden, and democratic senate and i think that's a big piece of his success as well. >> john: this senate race is

unique, two african american candidates squaring off against each other. but the breakdown terms of demographics, looks like a democratic and republican race. warnock leads walker with urban voters, and walker, white evangelicals, men, and rural voters. why is this following a typical pattern? why aren't the numbers, particularly among black voters different? >> senator warnock is very well known around the black electorate here because of his role at ebenezer baptist church, and it's a polarized black and white electorate. typically 90% of black voters in georgia vote for democrats and we don't see -- also walker is running an extremely conservative campaign based quite a bit on social issues like transgender sports, obviously popular with donald

trump here in the state, he was hand picked by donald trump, it's a right of center campaign and he's having a hard time getting any more cross overappeal among black voters. some crossover appeal but not as much as republicans had hoped. i think it has to do with the message of his campaign, and warnock, very well-known, won just two years ago with a huge share of the black electorate in georgia. >> john: what are the chances of a runoff? >> a little higher than i would like to be, they have to get to 50% plus one, so looks leak that's where it's headed right now. >> john: great to catch up with you. have not seen you in a long time. >> sandra: we are going to try something a little new here on "america reports." take things out of the studio

and off script to show viewers some more of what goes on behind the scenes each and every day here to bring you the viewer the news. this week i go behind the scenes with martha as she prepares for the big election night ahead. >> hey, guys, getting ready for the big night, hallways are busy, everybody is prepping for the election night, thought we would stop by martha's office to see how she is preparing for the big evening. >> how are you? thanks for stopping by. have a seat. >> sandra: you are super busy prepping for the big night but we thought we would stop by and ask you how you are getting ready. >> works around the corner from me but in different directions, great to see you. we have an amazing team putting all of this together and we have even better technology this time around than we had in the past, which is great. you've been working out on the board there, and pulling up all the races as well. so we are going through all the

latest fox news polls, putting together and crossing it over with a lot of what we are seeing in some of the other polls, including our fox news voter analysis, a big event that night when we talk to people who are coming out of the polls and on the phone, too. so it's definitely the moment we have been following them all along, and more and more interesting by the day, at colorado the senate race is tightening up, so i think we are ready. we are excited and ready. a really interesting night. >> a lot of big themes emerging and talking to the election desk and the enthusiasm with some races. one area you've been focusing on, the female suburban voter and the trends we are seeing there. >> i feel i've been covering this group my whole career. i remember the soccer moms and the security moms and i think you are going to see inflation, education, crime moms this time around. and i think that in some cases

they may not be talking to pollsters, but we had a really interesting poll this week that the wall street journal did that showed a 27-point move from the summer from more liberal to more conservative in those leanings. so we know that these are things that women prioritize and i think -- i think that's going to be one of the big stories of the night, because they really went with biden the last time around. so if now they are shifting to a more conservative stance based on their priorities, how much does it cost when you go to the grocery store, and are you nervous when your kids say can i go to the city tonight, people are saying no. it's a big shift. >> sandra: on that note, and we'll let you get back to your prepare. election night is fascinating, some things can happen early on. some races we are watching early on can give you an early indication of how the night is shaping up for each party. what will you be watching? >> it's interesting. that's wayned -- kind of what we

are looking at today. we have the fantastic ipad technology, georgia, south carolina, kentucky, indiana, vermont, some of the early ones and indications from some of these house races, virginia is 7:30, so that will be slightly later, where you are watching races and you are seeing whether or not they are flipping, and if we see some of those in virginia, for example, if you see one race go from blue to red, that would indicate perhaps that it's a good night for republicans. if you see two of them or even three of them, that's going to give us another indication of what the momentum is. but we can't really call anything until -- there are 52 house races in california and you have to wait 'til the end of the night to really get a look at what's happening, even though we are probably going to get a strong sense from some early races as well. >> sandra: it is going to be fascinating, exciting, can't wait to watch you and bret anchor coverage.

>> we are always watching you. >> sandra: a great inside look at the prep being done inside the fox news hallways and offices. thank you martha for our time, thanks, martha. >> thanks, sandra. >> sandra: so fun, and thanks for martha letting us stop by her office. a lot of energy, enthusiasm for everybody getting ready for the midterm coverage and us as well, we'll be anchoring over the weekend, john. >> john: we'll see you from 3 to 5:00 on sunday afternoon. fun to have an informal message about politics, but nice corner office. how do we get one of those? >> sandra: beautiful view, isn't it? it's great. we are all neighbors up there, and we are always bouncing ideas off each other, and gives the viewers an inside look at how we are prepping behind the scenes. >> john: when i think i spent four years in a four by eight foot cubicle in the basement of

the white house, we should move to new york. >> sandra: i have visited jacqui and peter in those little offices, you are packed in there, for sure. >> john: interesting when there is a leak in a steam pipe and the whole place is flooded. >> sandra: i remember your stories. big apple as we continue to watch this crime spike here, it is on edge around here after a brutal attack on that woman who was going for her morning jog. a homeless man with a lengthy rap sheet is in court this hour. he is set to be arraigned for that attack. >> john: when will enough be enough for the democratic leaders of new york city and state? joe cardinale on that coming up next.

>> sandra: rising crime and a weak economy could sink the democrat's chances of keeping control of congress and also costing them with some groups like latino voters, that includes in usually deep blue state of new york, where outrage over the bail laws has made numerous campaigns competitive here. and like an attack on a jogger yesterday, many wonder whether

they will go red. and we will speak with a former lieutenant on crime, and madison alworth, what are you hearing from people on the ground around here? >> sandra, i've been spending the last two days here in washington heights and the bronx, two areas that have a lot of latino voters and business owners here. they are saying crime is the number one issue going into the election and it is having a real big influence who they are going to vote for. first i want to introduce you to a grocery store owner i met with, he says crime is a huge problem in his store. so fed up with the democrat party he's not only voting for lee zeldin, he fund raised for him as well. >> we are living it on the front lines after they implement policies like bail reform, less is more, d.a.s are not doing their job, crime number one, and the republicans are small

business friendly, so perhaps i was wrong voting democrat for so long. >> so the economy is another huge issue because in communities like this, when crime is up, business is down. and that has an impact, obviously, as well. you know, the economy also encompassing inflation, we see that across the u.s. a huge concern for latino voters. 68% disapprove of the current status quo. it worries specialists like johnny and eli, eli used to have three restaurants, he closed two of them down because of crime and inflation. take a listen to these two. >> there's no money to spend, people are scared, they don't know what it's going to be, interest is high. >> you know, the city agencies, regulations, inflation, unavailability of products, public safety. it would be impossible to run a profitable business.

>> you know when you have an impact on your livelihood and your safety, you are going to see that at the polls. sandra. >> sandra: madison on the ground in new york city, thank you. >> john: let's bring in joe cardinale, and the suspect in the horrific rape yesterday is currently in the courtroom, if we get any updates on it we will pass those along immediately, but a guy who had 25 priors, was a suspect in two very similar assaults back in march and in october in the same area. what in the world was he doing out on the streets? >> well, john, i can tell you that this criminal justice system is geared for the criminals, and solely for the criminals. there is no two ways about it. we have gone from, you know, positive law enforcement to negative law enforcement because everybody is just afraid to do anything because of the laws that are out there. the cops, we are hemorrhaging cops out of the police department like we have never seen before.

we have judges that do not do their job, and you have an a.d.a. like bragg who sits there and gives bail, just cuts them loose with this cashless bail that's going on. it was a bad program from the beginning, slipped in in the middle of the night. if it was a referendum the people in new york would never vote for it. now they have a chance to put somebody up in albany who will make a difference and hold the city accountable for a lot of their actions by removing a d.a. like bragg. it's horrific the crime has risen in new york, when mayor rudy giuliani had it under control, businesses were flourishing, and now driving the businesses out of new york. and not just small business, but big business as well. if you don't have a city that resonates money, how are you going to have a city that works at all. it does not make sense. we have a mayor who ran on the stam platform, law enforcement, he has not done anything, anything of, you know, noticeable to get out there, he will not take the steps that are

necessary to put the city back under control. >> john: and now you have prominent democrats like hillary clinton saying all this talk of crime in the campaign is just republicans trying to scare people. listen to what she said. >> when they talk about crime, you know, they are just trying to gin up all kinds of fear and anxiety in people. they are not dealing with it. they are not trying to tackle it. and so i view it as an effort to scare voters. >> john: she says republicans don't want to solve the crime or inflation, they just want an issue to talk about. what do you say to that? >> she's scary, she really is. she believes this, and democrats like her believe this. they believe that the republicans are amping this up. no, the republicans and the conservatives are bringing this to light. just like fox is the only station that ever brings this to light. it's the same thing in the political parties. oh, no, everything is ok until something like nancy pelosi's husband getting assaulted brings

something to light and what do they do with that, turn it into a political circus. enough is enough across the country. take the handcuffs off the cops, put them back on the criminals, and you'll see a big change. get the street crime back out there, anti-crime out there, every single police commissioner that you have had on the shows in fox have said let the cops do their job, do what they have to do. >> john: and now you have the police chief where the woman, kiera benefield was killed after her husband was let out of jail, saying to governor hochul you have to do something for the judges to have discretion to keep them behind bars. thanks so much. >> sandra: we are going to take a quick break, and we'll be right back with what's coming up this weekend. for appraisal or termite inspections. no upfront costs at all to get the cash you need. veterans get more at newday.
