3:07 pm
turned over to congress, she's questioning why the national guard wasn't already on scene so, yeah, she also calls donald trump a domestic enemy. meantime, special counsel jack smith filed a revised indictment against trump with less than ten weeks before election day. it still charges that trump engaged in a conspiracy to hold on to power and to overturn the results of the 2020 election, but it's pared down to comply with the supreme court's july ruling that presidents have broad immunity for official acts. we just got reaction from south bay congresswoman zoe lofgren,
3:08 pm
who was on the january 6th committee. source from trump's legal team that said the revised indictment was not a surprise and that the whole case is flawed. meantime, president trump's former president trump's next scheduled appearance is in wisconsin, where he is set to hold a town hall style meeting. he's going to be taking questions from the audience his running mate. meantime, jd vance is campaigning in another critical battleground pennsylvania, where the candidates are running neck and neck. big theme for him today that controlling the border is the key to a stronger u.s. economy. also today, vice president kamala harris hitting the campaign trail for the first time since accepting the
3:09 pm
nomination. she and her running mate tim walz spending today and tomorrow in georgia. that is a state that biden won in 2020 by less than 12,000 votes. earlier today, governor walz worked to shore up labor support. he was talking to firefighters at a union convention in boston. and tomorrow a joint interview. walz and harris, they're going to sit down with cnn. that is their first interview since she declared her bid for the white house. and >>thanks so much. now, before this latest indictment of former president trump was released, supreme court justice ketanji brown jackson weighed in on the court's landmark decision on presidential immunity. in an exclusive interview, she spoke with norah o'donnell for cbs sunday morning in connection with her memoir, lovely one. in her dissent at the time, the justice accused her colleagues of breaking new and dangerous ground when they ruled in trump's favor
3:10 pm
3:11 pm
political process and so the supreme court has to be prepared to respond if if that should be necessary >>and still ahead, we'll talk live with the sonoma state political science professor about this latest indictment and ask does it even make a difference? ahead of the election plus, the dnc had a very different vibe and a lot of excitement. but will young voters stay engaged all the way until november
3:14 pm
you never know what you're capable of ♪♪ till you rise to the challenge. because there's nothing better. than the sweet smell of victory. and trash bags. smells good in here. cool! strength that's anything but ordinary. hefty hefty hefty. strength that's anything but ordinary. there are 69 days until election day and new data shows a major surge in voter registrations among key groups of voters. according to the data firm targetsmart. registration is up more than 175% among young black women in 13 states. that's three times
3:15 pm
more compared to the same time in 2020. among young latinas, it's increased by nearly 150%. voter registration has also gone up among black women and black americans overall. joining me now is sonoma state political science professor david mcewen. thanks so much for being with us. >>pleasure to be with you. good afternoon. >>all right. so the last time you saw your students or another class was back in may when the election outlook was very different and i can imagine for most of your students, this is the first time they've even voted in a presidential election. you're back in school now. what are your students saying? does your curriculum change given this sort of historic magnitude of this election >>well, everything changes with this election. we haven't been in a place like this. if you think about young people and what's going on, i study a group called the ray, the rising american electorate. if you start to look at that group more diverse, more urban, their politics are different. they're still concerned for example, about what's going on in their household, financial situation,
3:16 pm
but they're more likely to have a family member living with them, their have gone to three and a half years of college, maybe haven't completed college we have more women in college than ever before. and because we have more women in college than ever before, they're changing the workforce. they're changing the workplace and what it's expected and that emerging electorate crashes or clashes. right into the habitual electorate, the habitual electorate is older, whiter, it tends to vote regularly. there's not much else to do right. so that's what they're going to do. and when you see this clash, it actually spins out into a number of issues and you're seeing this in terms of the voter demographics that we're seeing so far, these voters younger voters weren't that enthusiastic about a guy named joe biden. they're much more enthusiastic about what's going here with kamala harris. and while most voters might get a migraine about what chuck smith is doing or what's related to january 6th, >>we >>also see other elements of the vote that voters that are energized. this is really important in a state like, for example, georgia, where kamala harris is going. we see more asian americans rising as a percentage of electorate. you
3:17 pm
wouldn't normally think of that in georgia, but it's going on there. latinas and latinos growing in places like minnesota. it's fundamentally changing the american voting public and this particular election is kind of an inflection point for that really coming to bear. yeah >>i want to get back to that indictment in just a moment. but kamala harris tomorrow and her running mate tim walz will sit down together for an interview with cnn. what do you think about the timing of this interview and what do they need to show voters? >>well, they need to be specific about a few things. you started to see some of that specificity when she rolled out on thursday night at her speech. but one of the marks against kamala harris has been that they haven't talked to the media. that they've been kind of insulated from, that they need to start doing that because they need to warm up headed into the first debate on september 10th. they also have to be prepared to get in front of some of the attacks that they know are going to come their way from donald trump and jd vance. those attacks will be about immigration crime, the economy, and as those move forward you got to put your alternative plans out there. so
3:18 pm
that means we're going to see a lot more of these two. and really the campaign is joined. and that makes social media another key component of voter changing demographics. social media becomes hugely important, especially for that 18 to 35 demographic. that seems energized with the vote this particular election. >>yeah, i'm curious. i want to circle back to the new indictment against donald trump. it's important to note that if he is elected, this case will probably go away, and if not, it will likely proceed. do you think that at this point, these new but same charges will make a big difference in this election? >>yeah. i mean for some voters on the margins perhaps a lot of voters, there's a great deal of fatigue about this. again, you know, there's an exhaustion factor here. if we had joe biden and matched up against donald trump, a lot of voters would be tuning out from this. but when you see this indictment and you look at what's happening, the most we could expect is some type of hearing related to evidence and evidentiary hearing that could possibly occur before the election. but there isn't going to be any resolution to this
3:19 pm
until after the election. and as your viewers know, the election doesn't necessarily end on election day itself. >>california >>has this long running kind of count that goes on the events of january 6th. there's a lot of room still to go after this, and that also exhausts voters. so in the ether, with everything going on voters are tuned in, they're excited and energized. we've seen that with harris changing the race but we've also there's a bit of a marathon going on here. and even though it's 69 days for a lot of voters they're going to see that as a long ways away >>and >>you know, certainly looking forward to election day, >>i have no question. you mentioned earlier trump and harris will debate on september 10th. what are you going to be looking for? is this going to be about getting their messages across or creating those viral moments? which is more important right now? yeah, >>thanks for that question. because look, the viral moments and the off the cuff remarks. that's right in donald trump's wheelhouse. right that's how he functions. and if you're a prosecutor, if you're trained in the legal field, you're
3:20 pm
about kind of building up those arguments, building up those arguments, building up those arguments. can you do that stylistically and still get your point across while your opponent on the other side is shooting from the hip, if you will? and i think that's a bit of a challenge stylistically for kamala harris. she should strike back. i would expect that she would do that, but she's also going to have a high level of expectations because she was a prosecutor so as we get closer to september 10th, she'll be ratcheting down her and her team will be ratcheting down expectations so that they can over perform. it's the performance of the debate. the eyeballs around the debate itself that we know are going to matter in the next 24 to 48 hours after the debate itself. that sets a moment where if kamala harris wins, she's in the driver's seat. if she's perceived to have lost and donald trump is perceived to have won, it is a dogfight to the end to november 5th. >>we'll be watching. all right. we'll >>need a lot of popcorn. >>no question. all right. professor david mcewan from sonoma state, thank you so much. nice >>to see you nice
