mr. burr loves nothing but himself, thinks of nothing bus t his own and will be content nothing of short of permanent power in his own hands. no compact that he should make with any passion in except ambition relied upon himself. he goes onto say, that mr. jefferson, i suspect will not dare much and he urges colleagues to vote for jefferson. so, you know, in some respects you might think that it's dejavu all over again. if we've got choice that is perplex people because they're not really thrilled, if the system isn't working, why bother to vote. i will ask you, tom, and then we will go across to mr. nader and gloria and then we will open up for some questions short -- short questions from the autoyens. >> -- audience. >> i am going to vote and there's optimistic side to all of this. tell i'm going to vote to stop tump. there's hopeful thing out there, the bernie campaign that was amazing, a man by the ordinary standards of american politics a be totally unacceptable in washington, d.c. he is

i think mr. burr will pull it out by two or three points.north carolina politics these days, that is a landslide. ms. ross has a very long record in the legislature and through her time as attorney for the american civil liberties union, which reflects some values and some interests that i do not think match very well with the people of north carolina, including being very soft on crime, not for collection of dna versus accused felons, being against the original creation of the child sex offender registry. and i think even for a state certainly has got a moderate streak to it, i think they're going to find that ms. ross is too liberal for the state of north carolina. pedro: what do you expect turnout to be this year compared to previous cycles? dallas: we expect turn out to be really healthy and really good. it may not quite match 2008, but it will probably be into 2012, that range, somewhere in there. it will be a good, strong turnout. pedro: how much did you get in 2012, turnout was dead wife -- turnout wise? dallas: i would have to look b

burr, washington correspondent for the salt lake tribune. welcome, thomas. >> good morning. >> good morning. mike pence is very popular in utah. mr. how important is pence's visit? >> you know, the fact we are talking about the vice presidential candidate on the republican side visiting utah 13 days before the election is very telling of the campaign right now. yes, mike pence has visited utah a couple times before, actually, in this campaign and last time was with governor gary herbert and other leaders in the state. this time, not so much. >> what do you mean? because you mentioned pence was there before. senator mike lee welcomed him, a very popular republican senator in the state of utah. but things have changed. tell us how, especially with senator lee. >> absolutely. senator lee has never supported donald trump actually in this campaign. he has kept silent on who actually he's going to vote for at the end of the day. but mormons in general which make up about 60%, 65% of the state, have not been very supportive of donald trump either and right now, all polling looks like evan mcmullin, independent candidate from provo, born

mr. trump. on the other hand, i think it looks good for the republicans on the senate side. whether it's kelly ayotte in new hampshire who has drawn even. pat toomey who is ahead in pennsylvania. burr in north carolina, blunt in missouri, joe heck in nevada. even ron johnson in wisconsin is catching up to russ feingold because of one thing. obamacare and its collapse. and i believe that that will drive the last two weeks in a very personal way, stephanie, when people get those premium hike notices in the mail, they see their deductibles going up from $6,000 to $14,000. i believe they're not going to send hillary clinton to do more damage in washington, d.c. without a republican congress to keep a check on her. >> then help me understand, if you're saying republicans are doing well and donald trump's -- donald trump presidency looks bleak, why wouldn't leading gop members start to leave him in a bigger way? >> well, it's all complicated. you're todd young in indiana, mike pence is on the ticket. mike pence is helping todd young catch and surpass evan bayh who has kind of collapsed under charges of cronyism and being absent out of the state. todd is a veteran of the iraq war. so todd
