5:35 pm
going to be lemmings for this projet 2025. >> reporter: harris said she has now filled out her own mail-in ballot and sent it off to her home state of california. she'll be staying the night here in michigan before spending her final full day campaigning in the largest battleground state, pennsylvania. jericka? >> all right, nancy cordes on the campaign trail, thank you. now to cbs' nikole killion in the battleground state of georgia with trump's campaign. nikole, good evening. >> good evening to you, jericka. former president trump is making his last visit to georgia here in macon which is typically blue territory. while his campaign looks to chip away at democratic margins, trump's rhetoric on the trail may once again be distracting from his closing message. supporters greeted former president donald trump as he capped off a three-state sprint in georgia sunday. following a return to north carolina --
5:36 pm
>> hello to north carolina. >> reporter: and pennsylvania, where he went off script. >> isn't this better than my speech in. >> reporter: the former president renewed false claims about election fraud, telling the crowd he shouldn't have left the white house after his lost in 2020. >> i shouldn't have left. i mean, honestly, because we did so -- we did so well. >> reporter: trump also went on a riff about the bulletproof glass surrounding him and appeared to take aim at the press. >> to get me somebody would have to shoot through the fake news. and i don't mind that so much because -- >> reporter: the trump campaign quickly responded. the president's statement about protective glass placement has nothing to do with the media being harmed our anything else. >> i'm not down in iowa. >> reporter: the campaign also dismissed a new poll showing trump trailing vice president harris in iowa, and in the overall race they asserted the gender gap between both candidates may not be as wide as it seems.

5:38 pm
passed. the final days of the control of thearily divided house has shifted heavily to new york. republican speaker mike johnson rallied through competitive districts there, trying to salvage republicans' narrow majority in three of his embattled first term new york republicans. tomorrow the house democratic leader hakeem jeffries is expected to make a last-minute push through a district for a two-term democrat trying to preserve a seat near west point. the playing field is so small, our cbs news review shows roughly 30 battleground districts in the u.s. house naionwide. that's fewer than 10% of all races, and you can see a group of potentially vulnerable republicans in california and three competitive races in pennsylvania. in the race for control of the senate, democrats can lose a net of just one, maybe two seats and risk losing their narrow majority, help organize handcuffing a future president harris or future president trump. and those blue wall battleground states have tens of millions of dollars in spending for senate race taos. michigan, pennsylvania, and wisconsin. >> all very important states.

5:40 pm
widely regarded as illegal under international law. but in a major shift in u.s. policy, the trump administration declared that israeli settlements were not illegal. >> and our alliance with the state of israel has never, ever been stronger than it is today. [ applause ] >> reporter: with israel now at war in gaza and in lebanon, and led by the most right-wing government in its modern history, a recent poll here found that 66% of israelis would prefer donald trump win the election. only 17% prefer kamala harris. does donald trump understand the middle east, do you think? >> no. he's a very transactional man. >> reporter: alon pincus is a former adviser to four israeli prime ministers who tried to negotiate peace with the palestinians. but he told us trump's
5:41 pm
isolationist america first approach is dangerous, making kamala harris a better choice. >> i think her understanding of america's global responsibilities and commitment is different, qualitatively different than donald trump. that doesn't mean he is not a friend of israel. in the long run, i'd rather have her as president. >> reporter: holly williams, cbs news, tel aviv, israel. today in spain, an angry reception for the country's king and queen as they surveyed damage from historic flash floods. take a listen and take a look at that. crowds tossed mud and insults at the spanish royals and government officials touring the eastern region of valencia. the country's worst floods in decades killed more than 200 people. today tornadoes battered oklahoma, leaving at least six people hurt. mountains of debris piled up in oklahoma city where storms damaged several homes, tossed
