you. trump vots are aroup of voters that will vote for you if ey believe you're into trump. no question cory stewart is all into trump. as you know in virginia sometimes it used to be a publican state, then it went purple lately. and then democratic blue. >> i think it is turning blue. few things about cory stewart, he needs to look at the numbers the oth night. winning vote total was lower than it was when he was nipping ed gillespie's heels. while he has support, fewer came out to cast ballots for him. but o thing he can take heart in,e did win in the close suburbs. creeping out toan spotsy, it hange.d to >> fairfax? >> loudoun

6:22 am
jennifer wexton beat three women for a chance to challenge comestock. she promised positive, progressive agenda. compare with co >> i think one of the enormous issues is e iss of gun safety, gun violence. you have barbara comstock strongly supported by the nra, and jennifer wexton pushed forward legislation to enact contls on guns. those two are out after that suburban female vote. it is annterestingistrict. stretches from mclane to wincster. you g from virginia suburbs where people are looking for
6:23 am
restriction of guns. >> and comstoc is onef the most vulnerable. >> she is, in great part because her district is turning blue.ll y clinton won her district. that's why she has her work cut out forha her. a tremendous reputation for constituent service, but she has lso been criticized for not meeting an open forum more frequently. she did give a boost to her re-election bid over the winter when she became a leading voice on capitol hill o thessue of sexual harassment. that's going to with women voters. >> women ters, big wave of women voters in 2017. >> we are going toalk about it after the break. be right back.

6:26 am
40 seats in the statehouse and sena are up. there was tremendous progress for them. republicans must be weary. >> what do you think? >> womis areg to the top. >> one more quick word, i heard some republican women were polled about hethat,'s a big group of republican in loudoun county, some said this blue wave of womens overblown. they're hoping to rise up and assert some pressure. >> virginia republican party is gearing up quickly to get on top ofhiselection, statewide election, whether or not cory stewart is l tder of virginia party. >> let's cross statelines, talk
6:27 am
about maryland. the r crowded gubernatorie is less crowded. valerie urban dropped her bid, unable to get her name added to the ballot following the death of running mate. she's throwing support behind baker. tom, she facedn up hill battle trying to get her name added and getting that reprinted. what effect will her dropping out have on theace? >> it is going to be hard to tell. it is important because all the statewide polling shows they're neck and neck. for her to drop out, say she's foan baker effect the vote 1 or 2%. she was polling 5 or 6. it could have impact. just don't know. the last ten days of the election is going to be remarkable as they try to ot
