>> a lot of people could say you did this and did that, but it doesn't mean it's true. >> reporter: in arizona today, the republican senate candidate blake masters got a boost in his bid to unseat democrat mark kelly. a third-party libertarian candidate dropped out and endorsed masters. in pennsylvania today, lieutenant governor john fetterman insisted he is healthy enough to serve after suffering a stroke. >> it's no secret that i was going to miss some words, i was going to mush some words together. and as we've been very clear in the debate and during this interview, i've been using captioning. >> reporter: fetterman, a democrat, still has a slight lead over republican mehmet oz. cbs's robert costa is in pennsylvania. >> reporter: suburban philadelphia is a crucial battleground, and both campaigns are seeking out women voters. >> so when you see prices go up, how does that influence your politics? >> well, it makes you think about who's going to do the best job. >> do you believe abortion rights will galvanize democrats? >> i think so, especially women.

look, i could be the cheerleader. i'm also a pragmatist. you feel it. >> reporter: newsom with one of his party's biggest digital and fund-raising operations sounds like a democrat with bigger ambitions. >> and it goes to my fundamental grievance with my damn party. we're getting crushed on narrative. we're going to have to do better in terms of getting on the offense and stop being on the damn defense. >> i urge all of you living in florida to join the fight or join us in california. >> reporter: newsom recently bought advertising in states like florida and texas, further elevating his profile. he's practiced at deflecting the presidency question. >> no. >> how can you be so sure? >> because it's not my ambition. it's not the direction that i'm leaning into. it's not the moment. >> so one way to answer that question is, i will never run for president of the united states. can you say that? >> yeah, i have no interest. >> reporter: newsom told us he, unlike some ambivalent

democrats, wants president biden to run again. >> it's been a master class the last two years, not necessarily in effective communication and generating narrative, but in terms of the substance under the circumstance, with all the headwinds and obfuscation and opposition, i think it's been remarkable. >> reporter: but those circumstances for the president would get tougher if republicans take the house. kevin mccarthy, speaker of the house, fills you with what? >> i don't want to say it out loud, but fear. what he's done to aid and abet this notion, the big lie, how he's aiding and abetting functioning authoritarian leaders across his party, yeah, it scares the hell out of me. >> reporter: we asked kevin mccarthy's office for a response to newsom and did not hear back. newsom will spend the next week campaigning in california for democrats in unexpectedly close house races. it's his effort to bail out a party he says, norah, is being, quote, destroyed on messaging. >> what a revealing interview. major garrett, thank you.

did this and did that, but it doesn't mean it's true. >> reporter: in arizona today, the republican senate candidate blake masters got a boost in his bid to unseat democrat mark kelly. a third-party libertarian candidate dropped out and endorsed masters. in pennsylvania today, lieutenant governor john fetterman insisted he is healthy enough to serve after suffering a stroke. >> it's no secret that i was going to miss some words, i was going to mush some words together. and as we've been very clear in the debate and during this interview, i've been using captioning. >> reporter: fetterman, a democrat, still has a slight lead over republican mehmet oz. cbs's robert costa is in pennsylvania. >> reporter: suburban philadelphia is a crucial battleground, and both campaigns are seeking out women voters. >> so when you see prices go up, how does that influence your politics? >> well, it makes you think about who's going to do the best job. >> do you believe abortion rights will galvanize democrats? >> i think so, especially women.

>> reporter: and when it comes to suburban women, a new "wall street journal" poll finds a huge 26-point swing in their preferences just in the past few months. back in august, norah, they favored democrats by 11 points. now they favor republicans by 15. >> that's significant. nancy cordes, thank you. one of the political heavyweights hitting the campaign trail is california's democratic governor. gavin newsom can pull in the crowds and the donations, leading many to question whether his political ambitions extend beyond the golden state. newsom talked exclusively with cbs's major garrett. >> reporter: california governor gavin newsom's race for re-election is not close, so he's campaigning for embattled democrats. >> does it feel like a red wave? >> yeah, of course it does. and, again, i'm not paid to say that. i'm paid to say, you know -- i get it. look, i could be the

cheerleader. i'm also a pragmatist. you feel it. >> reporter: newsom, with one of his party's biggest digital and fund-raising operations, sounds like a democrat with bigger ambitions. >> and it goes to my fundamental grievance with my damn party. we're getting crushed on narrative. we're going to have to do better in terms of getting on the offense and stop being on the da >> i urge all of you living in florida to join the fight or join us in california. >> reporter: newsom recently bought advertising in states like florida and texas, further elevating his profile. he's practiced at deflecting the presidency question. >> no. >> how can you be so sure? >> because it's not my ambition. it's not the direction that i'm leaning into. it's not the moment. >> so one way to answer that question is, i will never run for president of the united states. can you say that? >> yeah, i have no interest. >> reporter: newsom told us he, unlike some ambivalent democrats, wants president biden to run again. >> it's been a master class the

last two years, not necessarily in effective communication and generating narrative, but in terms of the substance under the circumstance, with all the headwinds and obfuscation and opposition, i think it's been remarkable. >> reporter: but those ciumstces for the idt wod t tous take the house. kevin mccarthy, speaker of the house, fills you with what? >> i don't want to say it out loud, but fear. what he's done to aid and abet this notion, the big lie, how he's aiding and abetting functioning authoritarian leaders across his party, yeah, it scares the hell out of me. >> reporter: we asked kevin mccarthy's office for a response to newsom and did not hear back. newsom will spend the next week campaigning in california for democrats in unexpectedly close house races. it's his effort to bail out a party he says, norah, is being, quote, destroyed on messaging. >> what a revealing interview. major garrett, thank you. and we will have full

coverage of the 2020 midterm elections next tuesday. that's starting at 8:00 p.m. eastern time, and we hope you'll join us here on cbs news.
