i will be back tomorrow at 11 am. i will see you there and then of course on saturday and sunday, 2 pm eastern. simone starts right now. greetings. you are watching simone. we are 23 days away from the midterm elections. -- who are the gatekeepers of that democracy? the secretaries of state -- in this country -- well, they're on the ballot this election season. and there is an alarming group of election deniers who are running on these ballots. i'm talking to one candidate about why we should all be concerned. and a heavy hitter is coming to -- former president barack obama will be in georgia, michigan, and wisconsin, leading up to november 8th. will it make a difference in some tight races? we will get into it. plus, we need to talk about the conversation among some city council members in los angeles.

leaked audio revealed racist comments made by the council president. she has since -- i think some others need to step aside to. we will hear about an l.a. city council member about what happens next. -- i have something to say. ♪ ♪ ♪ the midterms aren't coming, they are already here. voting is underway in multiple swing states and it starts tomorrow in georgia. candidates are getting their final messages across in debates and polls are -- i need you to know something. while we talk a lot about these congressional gubernatorial races, because they are crucial, who you elect as secretary of state or who you elect to appoint your secretary of state, we will talk about that, we'll

have a defining consequence for the future of our democracy. the secretary of state as the chief elections officer of their respective state. there are secretary of state races in 27 places across the country. that is more than half this november. at least four republican nominees in swing states have refused to say whether they will accept the results or they have just been outright election deniers. i'm talking like candidates in arizona, nevada, michigan and minnesota. let's throw in swing states where the secretary is approved by the governor. and florida, where incumbent republican front runner ron desantis has -- and in pennsylvania, where republican nominee doug mastriano has outright denied the 2020 election results himself. that is 91 electoral votes potentially at stake if they are overseeing presidential elections in 2024. that matters because the electoral college is how we elect the president of the united states. for context, president biden's margin of victory in 2020 was

74 electoral votes. you do the math. and if you think cooler heads prevail in the general election, take a look at nevada, where former state legislature jim marchand is the republican nominee for secretary of state. if you are not familiar with, him please allow me to introduce you. >> we have in nevada elected anybody since 2006. they have been installed by the deep state cabal. we have had no say so in our election process in nevada. >> you are going to elect me as your secretary of state because i oversee the election system. [applause] we are going to make sure that you have a fair and transparent election system because if we do, we are a red state, i guarantee you. we have something in common, president trump and i lost an election in 2020 because of a rigged election. >> does that sound like a man ready to upset the results --

it does not to me. and then, you have this right here, a cnn poll that was conducted between late september and early october. this poll found that 46% of -- actually favor jim marchand over democratic candidate -- this is a poll within the margin of error. also minus five percentage points. it is a lot. i want to bring in the democratic nominee for secretary of state in nevada. he is joining me right now. sir, thank you so much for being here. i just played those comments for our folks at home. your opponent has said some unhinged things. your campaign has outspent his. i think some parties would argue that you should be farther ahead in the polls. what do you think it is so close? >> i think it comes back to telling our stories, having the time to tell our stories. -- to destroy our open and transparent election systems.

we are going to fight every day. we continue to fight every day to expose him for the lies and disinformation he is spreading. he is not a serious candidate, but at the people he represents are extremely serious. >> what are you planning to do to close the gap? there are three weeks until election day. what is the plan? >> it is voter engagement. it is getting out there and shaking hands with voters directly. it is selling them on the future rather than arguing about the past. jim marchand is so focused on the pass that i don't think he understands what the future looks like. -- it is about time we elected officials that represent our community and look like the community that we are. we are investing heavily, ever since that poll was taking, we have raised a record number of resources to be able to buy that time. we also friends outside the democratic association of the secretary of state and citizens united. we believe that democracy is on the line and nevada and we

understand what we need to do to tell our story and expose him for the individual that he is. >> i'm sure you know that in my former life i was a strategist and when i would talk to candidates, i would ask them, how do we make a case without mentioning our opponents. so, i will ask you, why should they cast their votes for you? without mentioning your opponent, why you? >> because i believe in the future of nevada. i have bipartisan support. strong republicans are supporting my campaign. they've invested in this campaign. they are talking to their friends and colleagues. on friday, i had lunch with a very conservative democracy -- he understands what is at stake. last weekend, he stood on stage with donald any unequivocally said that if you are elected secretary of state, donald trump will be the president in 2024. that is not acceptable. and all nevadans are starting to realize that that is not acceptable. this is no longer about democratic and republican

priorities, this is about the future of nevada and what all nevadans need to do to make sure that their vote is counted. >> before i let you go, sir, your race is within the margin of error. in the event of a narrow victory, how is your campaign preparing if marchand refuses to accept the results? what is the game plan? >> we obviously have a strong voter integrity legal team. they are looking at the situation with paper ballots because jim marchand has -- which is actually not true. we have a republican secretary of state now who has run very secure elections. we are some of the strongest elections in the country. not counting the voter access that we have in nevada with early voting and mail in ballots. we are at the model for the rest of the country and we will continue to be. but again, i think this will become a legal challenge and we are prepared and ready to do it and we have some of the best legal minds here on the ground.

>> all right. we will be watching. the democratic candidate for secretary of state and nevada -- thank you very much. let's continue this conversation. we are all talking about the countdown to the midterms and i'll bring in with my political panel. -- he is a political reporter for the atlanta journal-constitution and an msnbc can political contributor. he's also the author of the book flipped. mike madrid is here. he is the cofounder of the lincoln project and former political director of the california republican party. and democratic strategist -- joins us. he is the founder and president of -- strategies and was a senior adviser to bernie 2020. i have had run-ins with all three of yells in various places. i used to work with chuck. used to teach with mike. and i have called up a grudge a few times, trying to get my candidate in a story. it's good to have you all here. i want to start with georgia and before we get to debate, i want to talk about the carter center. they have actually agreed to send poll watchers to fulton

county. for folks that don't know at home, the carter center is founded by former president jimmy carter and his wife and the group observes elections in countries with fragile democracies. mike, america, we are a fragile democracy. is this what is needed now? >> yeah, unfortunately, that is exactly what is needed. i think it is a wonderful arc of history here to see jimmy carter recognized globally. the carter center's work on helping democracy that are in crisis. this is a sign that american democracy is in crisis. if we were looking at numbers for the entire political party -- simply for partisan sake -- in any other country, we would say that is absurd. the country needs help. that is precisely where we are at. i think we will rise to be that moment. but we should be under no false understanding that this is a very dire situation here in the united states and these elections need to be scrutinized. we need to see overseers. i wouldn't even mind bringing

other people from outside, global oversights, to have the rest of the world what what is happening here in the united states of america. >> i mean, on that point, everybody is watching georgia. greg, you are on the ground in georgia. i do believe tomorrow night georgia republican governor brian kemp and stacey abrams, his democratic challenger, they will debate. you are the moderator. brian kemp leads stacey abrams and most of the polls. and he is just over that mark that you need to avoid a runoff. talk to us about the reality on the ground in this race and can you give us a little preview of what we might get an act of a tomorrow? >> it will be a very important moment for stacey abrams campaign. she's trailing the polls. some polls show her back three or four points. some show a bigger margin. either way, she and her aides still feel she is well in striking distance. i mention the governor wants to come out and not make any major

mistakes. he just wants to survive the debate. i think that stacey abrams will come out swinging. she will try to emphasize her support for issues like gun control, i should say. expanding medicaid, abortion rights, reversing these states 2019 law that restricts abortion rights. these are the issues she hopes will energize democratic voters, who in the polls so far, you know, are giving her 45, 46%. but of course, she needs to gharib -- narrow that gap. >> i've talked to a lot of strategist. and they say that stacey abrams can close the gap. she is still in this race. i'm wondering, as an objective election observer, all things georgia politics -- what do you think? >> look, one of the biggest problems for sit daisy abrams is that governor kemp support has been solid. he has consolidated the republican party support even with donald trump's opposition earlier this year. and swing voters are, in some polls at least, breaking towards him. while at the same time, a significant number of kemp supporters are backing senator

raphael warnock against herschel walker. she can aim for those voters, either in the middle or as she's been trying to do, energize the base. because she is at 80% in many polls amongst african american voters, the most important democratic consistency in georgia. she used to get those numbers up to 90, 95%, and she's doing everything she can to do that. >> all right. for weeks to go. i want to talk about michigan, okay? we talk a lot about election deniers. there is that washington post story that talked about nearly 300 election deniers on the ballot in november. the michigan gubernatorial race has won. and that is a trump endorsed republican nominee. she debated this week. it was the first on the two women met on the debate stage in a gubernatorial debate in michigan. and i want to play a bit of what she said about michigan having a constitutional amendment on the ballot to enshrine abortion rights. >> the governor doesn't have

the choice to go around a judge or a constitutional amendment. she will lie to you tonight and tell you that the governor can do something about the constitutional amendment. >> mrs. dickson is either woefully under informed about the office she is running for or she is lying to you. it is that simple. a governor will absolutely impact these rights. in fact, the only right -- it's because of my action. >> now, governor whitmer is talking about the lawsuit she filed that stopped michigan's very extreme 1931 abortion law from being enforced. governor whitmer is ahead in the polls. but i remember when she appealed vulnerable coming into this election. was abortion the game-changer here? the dobbs decision? or was it just a bad candidate. >> it's a combination of all three. she has done a really good job and run a good campaign. then, the dobbs decision. you've seen a lot of work that she has done. people don't talk about this, though. with black voters, latino voters -- there's a big coalition that

has been doing a lot. there we are -- you need to start early if you ought to do this work. in michigan, they did this work because they knew that this would be a vulnerable democratic seat for governor. because she barely won the last time. michigan is a seat that goes back and forth. and we both know, in an off year election, fewer democrats show up. >> i have a member of my team who was recently in michigan and when he came back, he said, there is road construction going on anywhere. i'm like, -- before i let you go, got to talk pennsylvania. okay? and michigan. and, potentially, georgia. and i'm talking about president obama. he is apparently going to campaign all of these places. he's visiting georgia for raphael warnock and stacey abrams. greg, what you know about the visit and do you think he is going to truly affect voter turnout? >> it's a big moment. because it's in two weeks. it's right at a time right

before the last week of early voting here in georgia. and just as i mentioned before, it helped an organized african american voters. it gives a jolt of attention to the campaign. and for senator warnock, it's a safe space. you heard in the debate with herschel walker the other day, he is not embracing joe biden. but barack obama gives him a candidate he can embrace and a major way. and i think he will do that. >> all right. we look forward to seeing. it mike and chuck have a podcast that i really hope people listen to because i definitely believe them -- i hope people are reading -- it's where you get the real real about what is happening in georgia! thank you all very, very much. all, right folks. coming up, president biden's strong words about the final january 6th hearing before the midterms. and what the takeaways are from the hearing. and what that could mean for and investigations going forward. we will get into all of it. but first, my colleague, richard louis is here, with tonight's other top news

stories. >> hi. great to see you. it was a year and a half of. killing six people murdered, mostly latino. now stopped -- arresting a suspect saturday. arraignment is tuesday. authorities say there is no evidence this is race based. officials have said the 43 year old suspect was on a mission to kill when they apprehended him. and iran stage news agency says at least four people were killed and 61 hurt after a -- it houses political prisoners, anti government activists, and people with western ties. iran's news agency also saying some inmates set fire to prison uniforms at a warehouse and there were skirmishes between prisoners and staff. nbc news cannot independently verify those reports. this comes as national protests past the one month mark of the country over a woman's death who was in iran's morality police custody. around security forces responded to protests with violent threat crackdowns. symone right after this break.

most part, avoided talking publicly about the january 6th hearings, but yesterday, during a trip to oregon, president biden made it plain. listen for yourself. >> i have been going out of my way not to comment. we will see what happens. i think it has been devastating. i mean, the case has been made -- it seems pretty overwhelming. >> you know one of the things

that struck me most during the january six committee hearings this past week? it is the fact that through witness testimony, committee members really established the former president, donald trump, knew that he lost the 2020 election. and make no mistake. it was not that the former president was told that he lost the election and believed otherwise. witnesses testified that he privately acknowledged himself. take a listen to this. >> the president says -- [inaudible] yeah, we lost. we will let that as you go to the next guy. [inaudible] >> i popped into the oval just to give the president the headlines and see how he was doing. and he said, can you believe i lost to this guy? >> [inaudible] a lot of times he will tell me that he lost, but he wants to keep fighting it. and he thinks there might be -- he pretty much acknowledged

that he lost. >> in the video -- we have heard the trump folks talking about this. this is the first thing i want to discuss with civil rights attorney and msnbc legal analyst charles coleman. welcome to you, my friend. you had general milley in that clip, transforming -- if donald trump knew that he was lying when he said the election was stolen, how would that or even can that affect the prospect of a criminal indictment? >> absolutely. i think that ultimately the question -- [inaudible] [inaudible] i think that once you understand that, then you'll understand what relevance is valid -- i think that when you are talking about the fact that donald trump knew that he lost and that he had these conversations with his inner circle, it makes it very clear that everything after that

point that was going on, that he went out and intentionally spread falsehoods that he knew to be untrue, speaks to the nature of his intent, in terms of trying to obstruct what was going on, to try to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power and ultimately, potentially try to overflow -- overthrow the government. it speaks to the matter of intent. the question is, what charge will merrick garland pursue? then, the nature of the intent becomes increasingly relevant. >> all right. the nature of the intent. make it plain for us, charles. look, can you weigh in on this other point here? i am quite disturbed by what we have learned about the failure to act on the part of multiple intelligence agencies, including the secret service. this was a failure to act, not a failure of intelligence. congressman stephanie murphy had something to say about this. >> as you know, we are still going to tens of thousands of documents that the secret

service have turned over recently. i look forward to us calling back in some of those secret service officials, who have knowledge about what happened. and putting them under oath this time now that we have that information, to gather their perspectives. >> i think the under oath part of that was key for me. do you think we could be looking at serious consequences for members of the secret service? >> well, the thing that i have been noticing about the january six hearings is that there are so many different investigations, which need to be spun out -- of information that has been provided by the many witnesses -- this is just the latest. if you remember, we had an issue with respect to the secret service and the preservation of text messages. and that conversation has been lingering in terms of the need for investigation. this is absolutely another example of something that is surface throughout the course of these hearings that needs to be looked into. because barr none, it seems very clear that there are

likely internal procedures that were ignored. and if it wasn't a matter of nefarious intent or something that was done maliciously -- in this case, it is so blatant and hard to ignore that the public is ultimately going to have answers because without them, how can we maintain any level of faith in these institutions that are supposed to be protecting the american people? so, i think that if this warrant an investigation, it is clear it is needed. it just remains to be seen when and if it will happen. >> lots of folks knew about the threat and advance of january 6th. very few agencies did anything about it. let's move to the criminal investigations into the former president. the washington post providing -- reported earlier this week that a -- [inaudible] [inaudible] former president instruction at a time when the government was demanding the return of classified materials. now, abc news has not independently -- [inaudible]

[inaudible] >> well, simone, you talked earlier about they need to make it plain and i will make a plan with this one. donald trump's embattled on all sides. -- you have fani willis -- you have everything going on with -- and now you've january 6th. but everything that donald trump is facing, this is the most direct line to a potential indictment and conviction with respect to the obstruction of justice and the reason for that is the timeline. this is occurring after he has been subpoenaed by the department of justice to preserve these documents and to have them where they can access them. and after that, he is directly providing instructions to other people to put them in other places. so, that above anything else, provides a really direct line for a potential indictment and

prosecution. >> charles, thank you very much, my friend. >> thank you, symone. >> next, we are continuing my theories of interviews with the president of -- we are talking about the top issues driving get out the votes efforts. -- right after this break, they will be here. ey will be here what will you do? ♪ what will you change? ♪ will you make something better? ♪ will you create something entirely new? ♪ our dell technologies advisors provide you with the tools and expertise you need to do incredible things. because we believe there's an innovator in all of us.

>> it's hard to say what's going to happen. i don't know if they will announce their resignations or not. but i know we have to continue to conduct the business in the meantime. it's clear the city will never heal until -- resigns. >> i've to ask about this tapes, or when did you find out about it? >> i found out about it on sunday afternoon. i read the transcript several times. they were available on the press and i immediately called for the council resignation. that was stupid for me, i don't think anybody else would make that call. it turns out that everybody saw how incredibly inappropriate things were that were said i look at the other two counts members and said, well they didn't participate that much but they let the whole thing go.

how did you not at some point, if not from the very beginning object everything it was said? it is crazy that and their lens, everybody is on one side of the other. we are with the blacks, with the latinos they see that every one is on one side of the other one we are with everyone. as a council, i think it's their point of view but it's not everyone's point of view by a long shot. the rest of us were shocked that the things that were, said the vile racism in every direction and the idea that they could just manipulate the redistribution process. >> i want to ask you about, that to me this seems to boil down to some members of la city council who are latino that are being threatened by the power of black people and now you are

saying that they're going to investigate all of los angeles is really handling. pull the curtain back for, us what is going on in los angeles? >> i think that we are all just in shock and trying to deal with this. we are just trying to figure out on how to help the city heal. the only positives to this is some of the reforms that have been discussed and not really push forward like increasing the number of council members and have a cleaner redistribution process. even independent commission, relating that make the decisions. and some of these items to clean up city hall will be a value that enough it was worth finding a way to them through this terrible episode where we learn about things that our

fellow council members were actually thinking. the fact that it's behind closed doors almost makes it worse. now we know what they really think in what they really say. it is not good. >> los angeles city council member, i really appreciate your time today. thank you for explaining some things. >> thank you. >> when we come back my culture critics are coming. we're gonna get into coaching controversy involving jackson state head coach. we're gonna break it down, stay with us. with us. even when you're not working. a plan that includes all your accounts so you can enjoy whatever comes next. that's the planning effect. from fidelity. it's nice to unwind after a long week of telling people how liberty mutual customizes your car insurance so you only pay for what you need!

voltaren. the joy of movement. ♪♪ >> it is time for the regroup we, are digging into the. tv are circulating group chats. we are kicking things off with coach, prime day on sanders. and an interview with a local tv reporter, the jackson state head football coach accuse them of code searching and not using his authentic voice when the cameras returned. on dion sanders who is always authentically himself asked rob jt uses quote normal voice. the reporter said he was just trying to be professional, i watch sandra snatch them i can just said, i just want you to just be you was the reporter code switching i want to bring in the culture critics to weigh in. we're gonna start with shelby rushing. she is a radio host at --

hot 105 fm. shelby it's always good to see you, or do you think? was he switching? >> you know, i don't think he was code switching. like he said he was trying to be professional and it's a shame when you live in a time and now you're being career shamed because you're trying to be professional which is something that he should've done. if he came in and said what's at my dude, he would've had a problem with that. you know. you can't when. i think the fact is, coach prime is a former football star now and rob has been working in local news. i think a news anchor voice as you well know is a thing. but why does it always sound the same? i think it's not like what we're talking. it is that coach for most trying to save turned on a little extra. i think there's a difference between turning on the election

being professional. it may be, i'm not that familiar with the guy who's doing the interview. i do know he has been a part of coaches career. however i feel the way he handled it he could've been more tactful about it. they do it during the -- attack, lusty on those better. i understand he was saying, he could've gone about it differently. did he have to stop the interview and continued to disrupt the guy who is trying to ask him questions about how he was feeling and his team wasn't necessary? >> i think he was shook for sure. we might have to cut the cameras, honey. we might have to get the cameras. i want to bring in our girl nina brown as we talk about this next topic because i want to talk about these champs. nina did you see it the popular podcast it's hosted by norrie,

they got a new episode that drop with kanye west last night. canaan was just unhinged he falsely claimed that george floyd died of overdose. he continues his anti-semitic rhetoric instead a whole lot of other things that i'm not gonna have pete right here but this isn't about kanye west for me. i think that this is irresponsible for the county interview this sexist lander. if you want to be for the culture, you have to hold people accountable my pinion what say you? then i can't hear you. >> yeah, i can hear you. and i couldn't pay. the technical difficulties are taking me out. i think those totally irresponsible. i think they could take a page out of maga carter when connie went on that show i was talking reckless, they made a decision not to air. it i think all media platforms

should go that way when it comes to kanye west. he's reckless irresponsible and dangerous. i'm just worried that someone else gave him another platform. they totally lost my respect. >> i mean shelby, you interview people on the radio all the time. sometimes these folks can get unruly. we have to check them in realtime. kanye is always out here doing something. in this situation, kind of going to be something. but if you have this platform, you have to correct kanye. kanye can say what he wants but you have to correct that everybody knows what killed george floyd and it was labeled as a homicide we know it was in the derek chauvin. we know that. and for them to allow connie to say this and no one rebuttal, not good. but then who goes to drink

chant for accountability. this is what the streets have been said in my twitter account. they need to learn today and honestly looking at the culture and how people need to come to them as well. if you need to do with culture outlets, this is unacceptable. let's talk about this before we go ladies. did you all know that the queen of rock and roll is getting around barbados? >> yes, and that's barbie is a part of the signature collection. you are here for, are you gonna get the barbell tell me? >> absolutely it's a collectible for me no doubt. >> i literally can't. wait the dollars inspired by the legendary singer's biggest hit, what's love got to do with. it that was 38 years ago. who else do we think, patel's been doing the same honoring folks.

a couple months ago learned ox. who else do you think needs a barbell? flagellations to not turn. i cannot wait to put on my order the collectible item. shelby russian, ladies people can find you on the radio. you will make sure you tune in if you are going to reckon florida, these are my. girls love you both thank you for watching sweaters on the sunday. you can catch me right here on msnbc weekends at 4 pm eastern. anytime over an, peacock unless nbc have every monday and tuesday. and for more of the show, find us on instagram, twitter and tiktok. we are very excited. politics nation with the great revenue sharp starts right
