excitement at their national convention. and with less than three months until the election, what is the gop's next move? we're talking with the bay area political expert coming up in just a few minutes. but first, a look at some of your news headlines. this just in santa clara county, says it reached a deal to buy regional medical center in east san jose. that agreement would allow the hospital to continue to provide life saving trauma care. it all comes after a series of protests after the hospital's owners announced the closure of regional medical in march. the deal still needs to be finalized and approved. the city of san rafael taking a unique approach to the homelessness crisis. it is establishing a sanctioned encampment that is going to be along the northern stretch of the mahoney creek path between francisco boulevard and lincoln. the city says it's also partnering with the county and nonprofits for outreach services to the people who live there. east palo alto is partnering with two bay area counties to tackle the homelessness crisis in that region. the agreement allows
3:03 pm
cities in san mateo and santa clara counties to pool resources, things like supportive housing and prevention programs. that follows governor newsom's push for local governments to clear encampments or risk losing state funding. warriors legend al attles has died. he was known as the destroyer. he spent more than 60 years with the team. he coached the dubs to their first championship, and he was also a player, general manager and team ambassador. the warriors said attles died in his home in the east bay surrounded by family. he was 87 years old students back on campus at san jose state. the university kicked off the fall semester today. the school says it welcomed one of its biggest groups of first year students in recent history. today was also the first day back on campus for students in the campbell union school district. teachers and staff greeted them this morning with gold pompoms and a red carpet all right. first alert weather. now a cool down and even a chance of showers as we
3:04 pm
look toward the second half of the week. meteorologist zoe mintz has our first has our forecast from the virtual studio. happy wednesday. we're looking forward to much cooler weather on the way all across the bay area as more cloud coverage, more fog. it has arrived. we are going to continue seeing it over the next couple of days, as a storm system will be approaching right now and into this afternoon. inland areas are going to likely remain mostly clear, mostly sunny, while the coastal communities stick with a lot of fog that is going to stay around throughout most of the day. getting thicker into our overnight hours especially pushing inland where we might see a little bit more of that drizzle action over our coastal communities and maybe even pushing to areas around the bay. the fog and the cloud coverage will hold on tight tomorrow afternoon and keep those temperatures down. a couple of degrees below average. as that storm system it will be arriving later this week. it is a very early autumn like storm system that's going to bring not only a big cooldown along with the chance for rain and drizzle thursday and into friday, and also bring cooler temperatures starting thursday as well. a couple of degrees below average thursday
3:05 pm
and getting even more below average by up to around ten degrees. stepping out on friday as well this afternoon. it's not going to be as cool it's going to be comfortable for most of us, though, all across the bay area, high temperatures today are going to be seasonable. they'll be regular for this time of year. nothing too crazy as we step out over the next couple of days, these high temperatures are going to continue to warm up and we'll be seeing them upwards of upper seconds places inland. 87 in concord, 89 in antioch, 85 in livermore, half moon bay getting down to the mid 60s. and we're definitely going to be feeling more of that heat down south. santa clara valley will be in the mid 80s. so again, it really depends on where you are, how much of that heat you'll be seeing. but either way everybody is going to be feeling that cool down over the next seven days, at least over the next three days, i should say. but by the end of our seven day forecast, another big change is on the way. so we'll be in the mid 70s friday, getting back up to the mid to upper 90s by monday and into tuesday we're triple digits are possible for inland communities
3:06 pm
early next week. that's something that we are going to keep a very close eye on for our inland communities. closer to the bay areas, it's still going to be warm, still above average where we'll be in the mid 80s next week, but enjoy the comfortable heat this week while you can >anne>and energized democratic party is getting ready to welcome minnesota governor tim walz to the stage at the national convention tonight. as the vice presidential nominee. skyler henry is in chicago with a look ahead minnesota governor tim walz checked out the stage at the democratic national convention hours before he is set to deliver his keynote speech as vice president. kamala harris's running mate. >when you look at tim you see a democratic governor delivering results in every communities from the cities to the suburbs to rural towns former president bill clinton and former house speaker nancy pelosi will also take the stage tonight before
3:07 pm
walz officially accepts his party's nomination. it's an opportunity for the former congressman, army national guard veteran and one time high school teacher and football coach to introduce himself to a national audience. there are still quite a few people who do not know who he is. what are you expecting tonight? >i think there are lots of people. you're being generous senator laphonza butler of california says walls will address all americans. >coach walz, i believe, is going to speak directly to working families all across the country communicating what he and vice president harris want to get done. and moving our country forward. and while harris and walz try to continue to build momentum, william howell, a professor of american politics at the university of chicago, says to do that, they need specific policies. >they need to give a fuller sense of what their vision is, where they want to go, so that the interest is sustained and the enthusiasm is held. harris will have the opportunity to do just that tomorrow night when she accepts
3:08 pm
her party's nomination, >anne>and our ryan yamamoto bringing us coverage of the dnc all week. you can catch his next report live at 5:00 today. former president trump, meantime, is campaigning in north carolina today, holding his first outdoor rally since the assassination attempt against him. on stage, there was a clear bullet proof barrier added by the secret service. mr. trump, responding to the sharp criticism from the obamas last night at the dnc. >did you see barack hussein obama last night? take little shots? he was taking shots at your president and so was michelle. you know, they always say, sure please stick to policy. don't get personal. and yet they're getting personal. all night long. these people >anne>on north carolina is a key swing state. trump won it in 2016 and 2020. but a new york times siena college poll shows them trailing kamala harris by two points at trump's rally in north carolina, trump briefly
3:09 pm
stepped out from behind that barrier to check on a woman in the crowd who needed some sort of medical assistance. he gave her a hug and then made his way back to the stage. the trump campaign is scheduled to make stops in arizona and las vegas over the next two days, and today we talked with the chair of the california republican party, who told us they are expecting a rush of read in november >here in california. we had prop one on the ballot last cycle around. this is not going to affect the way people are turning out to vote here in california. what is going to affect that is the fact that everything is more expensive than it was four years ago, that our streets feel less safe than they were four years ago, that we're paying almost $2 more per gallon of gas, all of those things. i think that many americans will be thinking about as they head into the voting booth. how is life four years ago and how is it today after a biden-harris administration? >anne>well still ahead, we're going to talk with a sonoma state political expert ahead of
3:10 pm
3:13 pm
chicago day three of the democratic national convention, governor tim walz and former president bill clinton set to speak in just a few hours. it has been a very busy week already, with speakers criticizing former president trump and some of those jabs coming from a former staffer >when i was press secretary i got skewered for never holding a white house briefing. it's because unlike my boss, i never wanted to stand at that podium and lie. now here i am behind a podium, advocating for a democrat and that's because i love my country more than my party. >anne>well, we are getting reaction to the dnc from across the bay area. our kelsey thorat talked to a mix of voters in the east bay for their take on the road to the white house. so far
3:14 pm
barbara and rick palmieri say they watched almost every second of night. one of the democratic national convention, and were more than impressed. >last night was all the reasons why we're not only proud to be an american but proud to be behind people that want the things that america stands for. barbara and rick say, for most of their lives, they were registered republicans, but in recent years they've felt like the party they once believed >in >>has lost its way. >you know, i just see the trump campaign and just who he is and stands for. it's like it's almost like trying to be a dictator. and it's just been really hard to even hear his voice, for one thing. rick and barbara say they're now supporting kamala harris and the democrats, and they're not alone. ninan fox told us she too used to be a republican, but then changed to an independent. nina says she's also been impressed with the dnc so far. >really happy to see that steve kerr was selected to speak. he's just an awesome human being and he's had a lot
3:15 pm
of accomplishments, and i think he's very well respected. so i was most excited to to see him speak and i also thought that hillary clinton was a rock star. but not everyone we spoke with was excited about this election. desiree walton told us she's not a fan of either candidate. >i am so moderate that that i have to choose. the last four times i have been able to vote, i've had to choose between the lesser of two evils and it sucks. desiree told us the only candidate she's ever been excited about was bernie sanders. still, she's engaged and curious about how the trump harris debate will go back with barbara and rick. they, too, told us they're curious to see how the election plays out. it's one they think will be consequential in how our country functions. moving forward. >but right now it's about simplifying what it means to be an american and what it means to stand for the platform that america was built on, which is the fact that i, as an
3:16 pm
american, have rights, and i also have the privilege of voting and having a say in this democracy. and that is at risk. >anne>all right. so joining me now, sonoma state political science professor david mcewen. thanks for being here today >live>thank you. nice to join >anne>you. so far at the dnc, kamala harris has actually made appearances herself. she has spoken both nights and that is something we rarely see until the final night of the convention. what do you think the strategy is there? >live>yeah stylistically, she's a different style candidate, right? this isn't 2008 with barack obama. it's certainly not joe biden in 2020 or even hillary clinton in 2016. what the harris team is doing is really giving their own kind of style to this component. they want to build up but they also want to keep her there, kind of bring her in at certain key moments, not for long periods of time. like she's walking out in milwaukee yesterday, as, for example, she's going over the top in the delegate count with gavin newsom. her political cousin, there, making that pledge with the california
3:17 pm
delegation. so it's carefully choreographed and it has these moments which we see building on tonight. and we've seen some of this in terms of themes, right? certainly the obamas, who haven't been very public, have been privately, quite frustrated with donald trump. and they come out full bore last night, but at the same time, pushing that unity theme which built after joe biden and monday night, you're going to see more of that unity theme tonight that all builds in to kamala harris tomorrow because they want to push a unity theme that's beyond the hardcore activists and democrats democratic base into the election itself, which obviously begins as soon as she finishes her speech tomorrow night. >anne>so let's talk about tim walz. he's speaking tonight. and you know usually the vp candidate is sort of seen as the attack dog, the one who comes out swinging. do you think he's going to fill that role because everyone just sees him as you know, the nice man next door? >live>yeah. they kind of see him as you know, that. that fatherly figure who's going to, you know, get get your jumper cables and help out. you know, with something around the house. but he has a role that
3:18 pm
is beyond the attack dog. and that's because he's in some ways his politics may be more progressive than kamala harris in some areas. he's also has a different demeanor, and that demeanor is very minnesotan about what happens and in that process of that approach, it means you're going to mediate a little bit of what's going on in swing states. that's helpful in places like the rust belt pennsylvania, for example, michigan, wisconsin. but also in other states, particularly georgia arizona as well as nevada. so he plays a role that's beyond a traditional attack dog and sets up a very exciting vice presidential debate. there'll only be one of these on october 1st. so it's not just the presidential debate, but also the vice presidential debate that will be must see tv >anne>definitely. so, you know, a lot of people have been watching the dnc. the reviews have been generally positive there. do you perceive the trump campaign making any tweaks in its strategy based on what we're seeing at the dnc? >live>right. they're going to have to do this. they've been flailing. no doubt. he's been all over the map in terms of talking about some policy ideas which people like the california republican chair
3:19 pm
jessica millan patterson were talking about in the previous block, she they want to try to push them to talk about those economic issues. but donald trump has a different style. and that style is controversy. so look for him to say something in the next 24 hours to upset the media cycle, the news cycle that democrats have and he has to pivot. and the reason he has to pivot is not only have the polling numbers closed and it's a different race than it was four weeks ago, but also in addition to that, the money gaps have changed. so when you put those two things together, the polling gap, closing, the fundraising closing, that all leads to a different place or a shift in the race. and when that happens, you start to see differences that cement into voters and hold moving forward for an election that really is less than 2000 hours away. so they have to pivot. and the question is, you can't force donald trump to do that because nobody's willing to tell him what to do in that sense and force him to do it so you have to go gently into that fair wind and that's why you see surrogates like the california republican chair, like karl rove, like others trying to
3:20 pm
push donald trump to talk about pocketbook issues because they think they can link that with other things like immigration, the border, and also kind of more broadly, economic conditions. >anne>so it's going to depend on if he's willing to listen to some of that >live>advice. >>so >>yeah, teaching a 78 year old man new tricks. that's exactly >anne>right. and we don't have much time left. but we always see a bump in the polls for the party right after the convention. what does it take to actually keep that momentum going? >live>yeah, to keep that honeymoon going, that momentum going. the big mo she has to be, kamala harris for democrats. they need to be better than five points in swing state likely voter polls. that's what you want to look at around labor day. does that bump hold? where is it at. better than five points. you're talking about six points or better in places like pennsylvania and georgia and so on. she's not there yet. she's changed the race, but that's where she needs to be if she's going to have some hope moving forward for trump and his and the republicans, they haven't really hit her yet. and they're preparing for that. so that means we're going to have a very expensive contentious race, almost neck and neck moving forward after labor >anne>day. it's crazy. and then, of course, the possibility of the
3:21 pm
october surprise >live>there you go. right. throw throw that throw that pitch. >anne>all right. well, we know that we'll be checking in with you throughout the rest of the campaign. appreciate your insight. david mcewan from sonoma state. >live>nice to see you >anne>an. coming up, the conventions have been full of star power. a celebrity explains while why they are getting more political than ever >the bay area events calendar brought to you by broadway san jose. here's what's happening in the bay area this weekend. head to the palo alto festival of the arts. it stretches over several city blocks with arts, crafts, food, and popular italian street painting. expo. and get a look at some of the hottest wheels around at the hot wheels monster truck glow party. the family fun at chase center includes a laser light show and of course, robot disney's frozen premieres in san jose tonight for two weeks only. this is the final stop of the five year tour of this spectacular broadway musical, and must end september 1st. so
