>> it is a jesus party. ♪ neil: i can't sing like those guys so how about a lot of news all over the country? welcome to cavuto live and the saturday showdown, 3 days to go, all in pennsylvania. will there presence be key in the keystone state? we are there and we are in arizona. how a last minute shakeup could rock the senate race.

we have the libertarian candidate dropping out and throwing his support to republican blake masters. to florida where polls show ron desantis leading by double digits. why does charlie crist still think he can win it. he's here too. we are live in georgia, in new hampshire, nevada, so many races, so little time. let's get started. welcome. glad to have you. pennsylvania is the source of all the pressure campaigns going on and the attention worldwide it seems of late. >> reporter: good morning. for dr. oz, today is about appealing to his party's base, trump voters who have not been enthusiastic about his candidacy. tonight, donald trump will host a rally in an effort to boost

dr. oz, he's in a dead heat against lieutenant governor john fetterman. it was trump's endorsement that led to dr. oz winning the republican primary by less than a thousand votes. dr. oz will share stage with trump and republican candidate doug mastriano. according to polls he is seen as too extreme by half of pennsylvania voters and is losing by double digits in this race. sharing a stage with trump could alienate moderate and independent voters dr. oz has been trying to court by denouncing extremism on both sides. >> you've got to unite. i'm a heart surgeon, not a politician. to deal with the biggest problems we face which in my case is a broken heart, i've got to bring everyone together. can't have us divided. we need the biggest sense of balance to washington. washington is getting wrong with radical ideas.

>> reporter: for the democrats, former president obama will rally with fetterman in pittsburgh before coming to philadelphia for second rally alongside president biden who is expressing optimism about democrats chances tuesday night. >> president biden: i know you always ask me how we are doing. we are going to win this time around. i feel good about our chances. i think we will keep the senate and pick up her seat, chance of winning the house. i am optimistic. i really am. >> reporter: despite that optimism the latest fox news power rankings predict even in the best case scenario republicans will take control of the house. the senate is a complete tossup and pennsylvania could decide it all. neil: let's go to athens, georgia, the tightest senate race going on and it just got

tighter. let's get the latest from aishah hasnie. >> reporter: this race if i were to describe it like a football game, we are in the final minutes of this race, practically apply but herschel walker has momentum going into election day. the latest polling shows herschel walker has closed the gap with rafael warnock, has a win behind his sales one point behind the democrat as opposed to the 5 point margin in september. incumbent rafael warnock is not to be left behind in campaigning, he will be stumping in the atlanta metro area, the reverend has been saying georgians needed different kind of champion. >> i give him credit. herschel walker was one heck of a football player but we are in

a different field right now. the people of georgia needed different kind of champion. >> reporter: walker has shored up his base in the final weeks. warnock has the advantage among independents, 47 to 17. that might be why tulsi gabbard was campaigning, here is her message for independents in georgia. >> we see the parties battling back and forth but what is at stake is our freedom and the heart and soul of this country. if we love this country and celebrate these freedoms, we as americans have to p - see past the dirty politics. >> reporter: we are in walker country. there's a big game later this afternoon and names being put into this race. senator rick scott is here campaigning with walker today.

nikki haley is on deck to campaign tomorrow and senator ossoff as well. neil: a lot of close races especially the senate races. griff jenkins has a 2 hour show after mine, the man doesn't sleep. how does it look as we see it now? >> reporter: i'm here because i love your show and there's no more compelling story than who will control the senate this midterm election cycle. if you look at fox news's final power rankings you see the path to controlling the senate runs through four states, four tossups fox believes our employer, pennsylvania and georgia as well as nevada and arizona. let's go to the senate math and look at those races. in nevada we have a race between catherine cortez masto

and adam lazalt. doesn't get closer out there. for our viewers a lot of people traditionally view nevada as two states when they vote because down in clark county in the vegas area they have as many votes as the rest of the state. let's go to the presidential election, three points separating biden and trump but the majority of the state of nevada in vegas and clark county going for biden. that is why adam lazalt, taken the glenn youngekin approach t get the turnout in that area. let's go back if we can to the map, i want to go to arizona

between mark kelly and blake masters, two points with kelly ahead. it is narrowing for weeks and days. if you look what happened in the presidential, you see a bigger breakdown but 0.3% difference. this is where the issues come into play in arizona. inflation is the top one but in arizona, fox news polling's is the second most important issue was border security, 20%. that means when you get to these counties look what happened in the presidential, that went lopsided for trump but jump over to santa cruz and you see the reverse happened. the tucson sector had the most known got aways in that sector in the last fiscal year. that is why that is compelling.

one thing for sure, our current breakdown is a 50/say 50 senate, that will change in three days. what happens nobody knows. got to stay tuned. neil: it is amazing how quickly the sands shift. thank you for that. we have some heavyweights doing their part to help the democrats get over the finish line. just because you have president biden, president obama, so many people pushing, donald trump for republicans, can a marvel movie of characters change the outcome of this movie? let's go to the republican pollster, doug, let's focus on

the democratic side, former president barack obama carrying the torch for democrats trying to get the message even though president biden has been doing that, donald trump, does that change the needle particularly for emma kratz? >> the democratic concern is a turn out, they are not persuading people to vote for democratic candidates but to get the core constituency out largely because the turnout numbers and early voting numbers are lagging, democrats are worried their votes aren't coming out and in the close elections you have been talking about that can make the difference. >> a few things you want to look at. polling is a point in time, looking at momentum, leaning republican voter enthusiasm, voter enthusiasm has shifted

from democrat enthusiasm to republican enthusiasm so what they are trying to do is get people more enthusiastic. pennsylvania is an interesting race because of his neck and neck in the senate, nowhere close in the governor's race. a lot of people say there might be split tickets. a week republican governor, part of the reason why donald trump is in pennsylvania trying to mobilize every voter he can to get out there because it is an interesting race in pennsylvania not as straightforward as look at these two individuals. neil: i am harkening back, different kind of comparison but when i go to 2016, the powerful party, the celebrities hillary used to seal the deal that you didn't work and donald trump ended up capturing the very blue states she thought she narrowed down. i mentioned that because

sometimes of these candidates show you up. a lot of voters, barack obama of late and battles in the states in which he's pushing democrats won't they favor -- that guy is pretty good, articulating what i am feeling but the other guys are not doing that. could it work against him? >> it could in two ways. you suggest the comparison of fetterman to obama for a lot of reasons does not play well for somebody like fetterman, the democrat in pennsylvania. but more seriously, substantively the democrats have a problem with white working-class voters. by trotting out both clintons and obama there is an attempt to get the former base of the

party back. whether it will work or not is an open question but what we are seeing is non-college educated white voters and people of color as well trending republican which is deeply disturbing to my party and my colleagues. neil: apparently it is all about winning over undecided voters, can't imagine there are as many as there are but be that as it may particularly independents, warnock in georgia is winning them over but where do you see that? >> it is fascinating to watch because independents are breaking for democrats over the summer. recently we've seen a big shift and the big reason is the concern of undecided voters is two things, inflation, cost of living, crime and democrats have made the race about this fight for democracy.

democracy is on the ballot. when people can't pay their grocery bills and are making decisions how to pay their rent and groceries and heating bills and all the other things, democracy doesn't seem like it is threatened, what is threatened is their way of life and democrats aren't speaking to that. they are rejecting it. biden said it is temporary, not as bad as you think of the economy has never been better, joy reid says no one i know uses inflation. it is manufactured by republicans and the reality is i'm struggling on these issues and the same of crime. people are feeling unsafe, has nothing to do with data but you've got governor hochul saying republicans are data deniers when it comes to crime so people on the fence who might otherwise, you are not addressing my very real pain.

the opposite of i feel your pain, rejecting the pain, denying their pain and that will hurt them come to stand why we've seen this shift in the last month. neil: so many prominent democrats, this notion the president keeps speaking about job gains, he seems to minimize the pain elsewhere saying we are getting through this, look at the jobs boom going on, i feel the customer is always right. the voter in the grocery store seeing higher prices and reminded at the gas pump of the volatility, they are higher than they were a year ago and

minimize that pain the you tick people off. >> i helped bill clinton get reelected and revitalized. his political standing and 95-96 and the way i see it is when people have higher prices at the pump and the supermarket but higher interest rates and lower stock market declining home values you've got to deal with what people see day today, not pollyanna talk and i thought when democrats did their inflation reduction act and declared victory as if inflation was over they were really saying we don't have a solution and we will try to change the subject to. it hasn't worked. will: always great having you.

in washington, i want to talk gubernatorial races but first i wanted to touch on an interesting anniversary, fiftieth anniversary of richard nixon's reelection in 1972 was a romp, won in a landslide. i remember cover stories that said the republican party will rule indefinitely, they completely realigned the map. we know that it translated to what tough time for republicans that they didn't recapture until 1980. if republicans have a big day should they remember is that day, keep that in mind? >> i remember that like it was yesterday. what is interesting about the anniversary of the nixon election is a cautionary title not to get over their skis,

they are going to win in the midterms but also fascinating because it shows us the change in american politics. one of nixon's greatest accomplishments was opening china and the ramifications of that decision are being felt today and also an area of debate among them under of republicans who perhaps have their own white house ambitions, the question of how do we deal with china? do we extend an olive branch and trade with them at hope that will lead to better behavior or do we get tougher on china? in that time, the republican party shift 180 ° on this question, show things can change quickly in the scheme of things. neil: i didn't want to get sidetracked, what happened in

britain where markets turned on the former prime minister for 43 days, similar sentiment against the established government, we are seeing it play out in germany where the opposition party is gaining in the polls so repudiation against parties in power, brazil the latest example so is that a cautionary statement for republicans, you sees control, let's see what you do with it but do not assume you have a lock on this, you've got to deliver the goods. >> we are seeing that realignment. it will take time for us to see what the long-term ramifications are of these changes or if they are just registering dissatisfaction. in the midterm elections a couple days from now the question of registering

dissatisfaction will be a very big one here but in politics journalists and political operatives make things more complicated than they are in representative democracies, going to call the shots eventually, but let's vote the bums out, sometimes they can be the most powerful sentiment in politics, not unique to the united states. neil: waiting for a wave or whatever we call it in 1994 or 1980, these periods of time, and undeniable wave but we focus on how it makes up the house, governorships, there could be a way of going on. >> we are talking those senate

races, it will determine the course of the federal government but we have 36 governors race is on the board, they are the ones who are much closer to determining questions of crime, a number affect people's lives. if you roll through the polling, incredibly close race. whether it is in arizona, the question of whether republicans can bring out voters for the governor's races can have ramifications for other folks on the ballot or having a strong contender at the top of the ballot, that favors republicans in this environment. neil: if there is a red wave in a close district, it is another in the bluest of blue states,

if it were to go for the first time, are you sensing anything like that? >> governor hochul is up by 6 points but this is a race democrats do not have any business losing, this is their home turf, they should be cleaning up and instead they are defending against lee zeldin. they are playing defense in new york and that means that funding can't go elsewhere. if lee zeldin can keep it close, push this argument about crime and public safety maybe he doesn't win in the end but that type of competition turns out republican voters into makes democratic incumbents incredibly nervous. neil: thank you for that.

i want to expand on this issue. it was at this .42 years ago there was a shift going on in what was a technically even race between jimmy carter and ronald reagan that was happening in the weekend before the tuesday vote. is anything like that "happening now"? we have that after this. and we would experience turbulence. i would watch the flight attendants. if they're not nervous, then i'm not going to be nervous. financially, i'm the flight attendant in that situation. the relief that comes over people once they know they've got a guide to help them through, i definitely feel privileged to be in that position. ♪

neil: we are monitoring president biden's whereabouts, not on the issues you might think would be top of mind for voters, talking about fossil fuels, lucas tomlinson talking about that. >> reporter: until today

president biden has not been going to battleground states, he goes to penciling you later today, mostly deep blue states. he spoke in california yesterday, reignited the war over fossil fuels including coal. >> president biden: it is now cheaper to generate electricity from wind and solar than it is from coal and oil, literally cheaper, we are going to be shutting these plants down across america and having wind and solar. >> reporter: barack obama doing the heavy lifting in battleground states, he traveled to georgia, michigan, wisconsin, nevada, and arizona. obama and biden will campaign in philadelphia. it is unlikely biden's or marks will be popular in parts of pennsylvania and west virginia, joe manchin slamming the remarks on call calling them outrageous. call still makes 20% of this country's electricity including powering up his electric cars, biden spoke about the most

recent jobs report saying 260,000 new jobs were added. >> president biden: media reports, report all the locks report. i have my shotgun waiting for the wolf. the economy continues to add jobs even as gas prices come down. we have a lot more to do. we also know folks are struggling with inflation. >> in a fundraiser he accused twitter of spreading lies which many critics said is rich considering one of biden's own tweets was recently taken down on twitter because it contained inaccurate information. neil: geon o caldwell -- gianno caldwell was in a private luncheon, has not mentioned it today in his travels. what do you think of it? >> it is disturbing and

president biden isn't reading the tea leaves, doesn't care what voters think or the lives of many individuals who have come to a end, whose families have been destroyed because of many things that are articulated by those folks in which, a political home with the democratic party. this is unacceptable for the leader of the free world to be so concerned about what is going on in ukraine but not in his own backyard, not concerned about chicago or what is going on in philadelphia, atlanta or across the country. this is the reason voters who are watching right now need, if you can early voting your state, vote now. if you have to wait until tuesday, do so but vote like your life depends on it because in this environment it truly does. neil: the president's private function, don't know the

details, he did refer to assault weapons, that echoes what we here in new york, it is all about getting guns out of people's hands but not anything about bail reform or a system that allows a turnstile form of justice where someone with a checkered past or done a horrific crime, none of that. >> hochul's vacillating, not buying, you look at the crime numbers. overall crime in new york up 33%, you talk what is going on on the trains, 42%, up 36% and violent assaults, 16%. when you look at those numbers people are in fear for their

lives, those who have financial means and resources are moving to florida. i know this because i'm in florida and i'm in one of those nice buildings, i could not live in new york city, they don't care about the crime, crime is out of control and i need to bring my family to a safe haven which florida is. the issue is this has had a ripple effect for democrats because they are ignoring it. they know that in part crime issue or the crime crisis in america i should say his been done on their watch and pushed by saying let's defund the police, do bail reform, illinois the first country -- the first state in the country to go cashless bail, this is what voters care about and we will see i hope and pray a tsunami on behalf of the republicans tuesday because things need to change rapidly.

neil: thank you. some of the crime numbers going back-and-forth, among prominent democrats, double-digit increases, thievery and incidents in the subway systems, these are provided by the police department. those are the numbers we go on and there needs to be a time democrats do the same. the numbers are what they are. meanwhile, focusing on campaigns around the country i want to take you to georgia. senator warnock making a campaign appearance, a blitz of candidates across the country. he is in a tight race with herschel walker who is campaigning on the other side of the state. we will be going to that and

a leading democrat pickup or continuation. now herschel walker is considered a tossup. the common pattern in states like new hampshire where it looked like maggie hassan had the race in the back, someone forgot to tell her opponent that and it is too close to call. it represents being a potential tossup. the latest from hillary von. >> inflation is top of mind for voters in the granite state and the jobs report from friday shows it is trickier for the fed to get a handle on inflation and bring it down. the final jobs report, job gains slightly slow, the jobless rate picked up to 3.7%, labor secretary marty walsh is

here, hitting the campaign trail with hassan who is in a battle to defend her seat from retired general don bolduc who is inching ahead in recent polls effectively turning this race into a dead heat. both candidates got face time with college students, senator hassan stumping for elizabeth warren. hassan did not mention in her pitch to college students. >> this is really about or future, the stakes are even higher for you than for people of my generation. this is about whether election deniers get to decide who wins an election or whether your votes get to decide who wins this election. >> reporter: don bolduc made heating and eating the number one issue in his campaign. even college students cannot escape inflation.

>> talk to college students here. they think about the debt they are in because of decisions senator hassan has made, the job they want aren't paying the money they need to pay certainly not to the extent it will cover this 40 year inflation problem. once again she is off message. >> reporter: wages keeping up with inflation, up 4.7%. inflation is double that. a whopping 8.2%. it is eating into everyone's budget whether you are older or younger. neil: steve, it is interesting, not the first time there was an election denier on the ballot who does very well as if that's the only issue. regardless how you feel on that. it is a hot potato for candidates.

the fact of the matter is don bolduc has a prominent passed in the military, genuine war hero, the idea that he pounded the economy should be mentioned, many candidate attached to donald trump should be dismissed because they are, that is not resonating with average voters worried about different things. what do you think? >> absolutely true. people are looking to the future, not the past. herschel walker had troubles in the past but who is more likely to vote against tax increases or inflationary spending or to button up our border, people looking to the future. the consumer price index, cuts by a thousand cuts, you go to the grocery store, the prices

don't go all but once. anytime you go there is something about prices going up. that hurts people's more row lose even though up republicans are associated with donald trump a have a chance of winning because people want to know what are you going to do about the problems here and now, not about yesterday. neil: even though they and up yesterday in the face of stronger than expected report, the biden years up to hundred 61,000, the reason i mention it, the markets getting a handle on what republican house would look like or a republican senate. at the very least it is gridlock. for the folks were talking about, what is in it for them?

>> if they get control of both houses they will focus on passing legislation, opening federal lands for oil and gas production, if president biden vetoes that, getting more oil and gas from the us rather than venezuela or opec the democrats will override his veto. people can look forward to legislation that will start to rain in imposing regulations and the like, they can't control the white house but they could put a break on the regulatory agencies. it will start with oil and gas and move forward, the jobs report, two jobs reports, the household survey and establishment survey. the establishment survey takes existing services which are usually fairly large, the household survey goes for

households, who is working, who isn't working? the household survey showed a downturn over 328,000 jobs. the trend is not good for the economy. neil: the president is trying to remind people, he created 10.3 million jobs, that is what he keeps trying to remind americans. i know jimmy carter, trying to let them know it is different from what happened in the 70s. the price part of it is "happening now". >> in terms of job creation many are taking second or third jobs to make up for the fact the main jobs are not keeping up with inflation and that is starting to weaken a little bit. that is a lagging measure in

the sense that they have had a hard time finding people and are reluctant to turn on a dime. those numbers can turn quickly, the headline, the final sales were flat and that's going down all year, not a good harbinger for 2023. neil: thanks for the latest, now steve forbes on the real weather and how conditions outside can affect people on the inside. gonna stop me? uh-oh... i'm almost there... too late! boom! earn big time with chase freedom unlimited with no annual fee. how do you cashback? chase. make more of what's yours.

neil: the real test of voter enthusiasm is if they go to the polls when the weather outside is nasty, nothing like someone who will brave the elements no matter what to make sure they get out and vote. how is the country looking?

>> the science does show that the weather affects turnout but also when it is too nice. that might be the case for 100 million americans in the east enjoying beautiful above average temperatures, and pennsylvania key counties like fox and allegheny getting temperatures, in georgia temperatures in the mid 70s. fulton county is a place to watch to see if people get to the polls, out west we have a storm coming into california. nevada looking at a rain/snow mix, stormy weather, full and washington county it will be messy weather. in arizona in maricopa county that storm pushes further into arizona and part of the county will see showers by the afternoon. along 10, besides that looking

at the recovery for these folks in eastern texas, oklahoma, 73 tornado warnings and dating reports of twisters touching down last night, reports of injuries. that storm system moves into the gulf coast states. in new orleans the storms are moving into biloxi across the coastline where we could see heavy downpours, those could be dangerous. the front starts to settle down, a few showers in music city and nashville before the system dies down. we want everybody to get to the polls, check your weather on the fox weather apps. some people might make the excuse whether it is too hot or cold or dry but it is what we want to do, get our voices heard. neil: looking at those weather conditions, don't know the weather conditions across

florida, they look pretty favorable. we will see how charlie crist feels about things, trying to topple ron desantis. good to see you. >> good to be with you. neil: how is the weather? could be hospitable for your support or maybe not. >> the sun is out, it is beautiful in daytona beach, in orlando later today and tampa and miami, if i could talk to you tonight i could give you the whole states but looks good. neil: when you gave up your congressional seat to run for governor now it looks like it is leaning republican. that could change but in pursuing the governorship again are you worried the seat you left adds to the republican

majority they could likely get next tuesday? >> a great question. eric lind is running a great campaign, very moderate democrat. neil: he is trailing. >> last paul i saw was a tie, these things change every ten minutes, last paul they were neck in neck. it will be great and i think he's going to win. neil: you are talking about how he's pushing the roe versus wade decision and galvanize support among women in your state. you are talking about women and freedom to choose, i am wondering, is that the strategy the next couple days? focus on that and bring out the base? >> it is that certainly because a woman's right to choose is a vital issue. with the overturning of roe versus wade we put this front and center.

i'm a pro-choice champion. ron desantis signed a bill that will take that away even in cases of rape or incest which is hard for me to imagine but affordability is an important issue. we are the most expensive state to live in. events have gone up absorbed only during the desantis administration. neil: how would you do that? that is where people want to be, they want to be in florida. a governor can't control the value of real estate, what would you do to make it less pricey? >> we have a specific budget trust fund, hundreds of millions of dollars the governor has gutted and returned to corporations.

neil: with that forcibly lower prices or make some housing affordable? >> makes it affordable for some groups, that is the side of the equation, either rent or purchasing of a home and the more severe economic issue is property insurance. we are the highest in the nation. the governor hasn't done anything to address it. when i was governor previously i held a special session on property insurance, helping consumers. that's the kind of governor florida needs. neil: doesn't property insurance go up as per real estate prices go up and you are in an area, a beautiful state where you have hurricanes and storms that makes it go up more. >> no question about that. hurricane ian has exacerbated this problem. it was a crisis before this storm and the governor did nothing to bring rates down as i did when i was governor the first time.

what floridians want is someone who is not focusing on running for president in 2024. governor desantis is attempting to do that which will bring up an interesting tomorrow, sunday donald trump will have a rally in miami. governor desantis will have one in tampa. an interesting tension going on. neil: i don't know what the former president is going to say. i know what ron desantis has said of you, you are your stubborn old donkey and all of that. it has gotten nasty. if you were to lose, what do you do after this? >> i'm going to win so i'm not worried about it. it's not something i envision. people affordable get out and vote. a great parade today,

historically black college, fans are excited and ready and have a big game later this afternoon. i'm encouraged about the prospects, the latest poll which was done by a group out of pensacola had a stopover governor desantis. that's not been reported very much. it came down to the women vote. looked at the mail vote he was ahead of me, all credit to him, 53%-47%. among women we were up 58 made a difference in a recent poll. neil: that might explain why you've got these ads featuring women and freedom to choose. women also vote and shop and see higher prices and also concerned about that. your campaign comes down to that one issue. >> it doesn't.

as i said before, it is affordability as well, property insurance rates men and women have to pay, utility bills have doubled in the past year because the public service commission appointed by the governor hasn't regulated utilities, florida power and light, duke energy, rates go up and up and up and women as men, that's not fun. neil: i want to be clear here. you said that issue, the abortion issue, freedom to choose, you think that is more important to women than the price of things they are trying to buy at the grocery store? >> i do because it goes to their very freedom and the essence of freedom for women. some white guy in the governor's mansion telling them what to do with their body or health care, they don't like that and i don't blame the. i'm an only son raised with three sisters and i will say this on the economy. if i am elected governor we will never have a state income tax in the sunshine state.

it helped us way too much. neil: thanks for taking the time, charlie crist, democratic governor of florida, we artie had governor desantis on. that contest is on. it is a battle royalthe that could reshape the color and texture of the sunshine state. more after this. clap your hands. ♪ ♪ if you're happy and you know it, ride your bike. ♪ ♪ if you're happy and, you know it, then your face will surely show it. ♪ ♪ if you're happy and you know it, smile big and bright. ♪ thousands of kids just like me are happy every day. and it's all because of generous people like you who support shriners ... or go online to loveshriners.org right now with your monthly gift. because of people like you shriners hospitals for children is able to make
