we know boebert doesn't do legislation. she does theatrics and stuff. what would you concretely want to bring home to the third district if you are, in fact, elected. i'm a big fan of the caucus. in the house of representatives, 29 republicans and 29 democrats. i want to be one of the bipartisan democrats and work on things. my number one concern in our district, number two is ag, ranching, farming. three is to make sure we have a safe and secure independent energy. we have to make sure we make that transition to morey knuble energy. i can drive it. >> if you win do you expect her to concede or fight it? >> i would assume if past is pro log, she'll probably do battle. that generates money. that's all part of the angertainment industry. out of respect for the voters, i wouldn't think that's the right thing to do. i will do that if we come up short in this, but the person is not the person -- is the person who is certified by the secretary of state. >> yes. >> nothing else matters. we'll continue to work on the solution, the congress person elect. it coul

this is lauren boebert's district.hallenging her is a adam frisch and he's posed a very serious challenge to lauren boebert. he's said that all along that what he's -- what he's been running against is her brand of angertainment in washington that's done little for the people of the district. john, before we get to david on that, you've been looking at this as well. how close is the race? >> i have to tell you, i looked at it for the first time in a couple of hours and for the first time lauren boebert is ahead there. up until the last time i checked. >> 64 votes difference. >> 64 vote as head. now you have lauren boebert ahead by 386 votes. that might not seem like a lot but it's, what, five times what the margin was in the other direction yesterday. i wish i knew where that vote was coming in from. the county level here, pueblo county is the largest county that leans democratic. it's a d plus 1, d plus 2 district. there's still 83, only 83% reporting there so if you're a democrat, there's still hope that brianna keil

right now between adam fresh, the democrat, and lauren boebert the republican. symbolically there are a lot of democrats who would like to defeat lauren boebert. in terms of the math of the house, this becomes critical. given everything i've shown you, they're probably not going to be able to play up everything here but they need to do everything on this list i'm showing you, they need to defend just about everything on this list that i'm showing you here, including all of these california seats. that's the kind of combination for democrats to land, at 218, georgia 19 seats. something like that, it would be the ultimate inside stream and politics that's. we would take. , and that of course there is the question of whether kevin mccarthy is actually rooting for lauren boebert to run. if he's got a one seat majority, which would he rather have? . much more to come in this election night. stay with us. ay with us r insurance so you only pay for what you need!

my guess is that boebert holds on, right, yesterday boebert was behind. in. she was able to take the lead. but the fact that we're even talking about this just goes back to sort of my shock in general during this entire -- this is not where i thought we would be, and this race is sort of indicative of all that. >> i know this sort of stuff fuels you, harry, but i also know you have had no sleep this week at all. thank you for staying up for us on this friday. >> any time i can join you, ana. let me say your marathon run, i was watching you, probably one of the more impressive things so we've both been through different types of marathon. >> it's always a marathon every week. thank you so much, harry, for your kind words, i appreciate you. >>> explorers searching the atlantic ocean for world war ii artifacts make a stunning discovery. it wasn't what they were looking for. that's next. when you see things differently, you can be the difference. -how are you? -good. capella university sees education differently. our flexpath learning format lets you set dead

lauren boebert entered this race in a strong position.hird congressional district she represents was made more favorable to republicans when its borders were redrawn last year. unlike most of the colorado delegation she entered the race with a sizable campaign war chest. she also had national name recognition making headlines as a staunch ally of former president trump, a major big gun rights advocate. when she was sworn in she released a video of herself walking around capitol hill with a gun. she's promoted conspiracy theories, for example, about the outcome of the previous presidential election. and some analysts say one of the reasons why this race became so close is because her opponents used her behavior against her. now, adam frisch served on the aspen city council, he also asked voters if they wanted two more years as what he described as her angertainment brand. she for one is expressing optimism about her chances. she blamed the lack of voter enthusiasm for republican candidates for senator and governor but did start fund-raisin

lauren boebert, 64 votes. 64 votes she's behind. she has been closing so it's possible that she could lose but with some of those late-arriving ballots, don't be shocked if she does, in fact, eventually pull ahead. but this is just an indication of how close these races truly are, don. and it just gives you an indication that this is such a divided country. i mean, 220 to 215? my goodness gracious, don. >> yeah. that was the house. what about the senate here? >> yeah. let's go over to the united states senate, right? let's go to the call races. we know georgia going to the runoff. let's zone in on arizona first which is uncalled at this particular point. mark kelly, of course, the democratic incumbent ahead. 51.4 to 46.4. we're always watching maricopa county because it contains the vast majority of votes. 53 to 44.9. there was a slew of maricopa votes that came in last night that was favorable towards the democratic candidate. we don't know about the rest of the votes. election day votes could be much more favorable to blake master

colorado's third congressional district, lauren boebert remains tied in an unexpectedly close race. according to new reporting, some people who voted for brokered two years ago said they were fed up with what seemed like her desire to grab the spotlight over fighting for them. republicans like mastriano and boebert push the idea that america is a christian nason and should be governed by christian leaders. they want to tear down the wall between church and state. performances by many of these candidates, it does not go away. i knew colin from time magazine reads, quote, christian nationalists systematically overestimate the strength in numbers. they will almost certainly do so in the future. these leaders and their followers are unlikely to be dissuaded from their mission and confronted with the reality of the shrinking numbers. the struggle of candidates like mastriano or boebert, voters may turn away to the far-right candidates, others prevailed. self described christian nationalists marjorie taylor greene held on to the house seat in georgia. florida was in a congressional distri

now boebert is ahead. we think pueblo county which is skewed largely democratic, there are still a few thousand votes left to count. it's possible with the margin so small, this could flip again. although, she grew her lead in the last hour from the mid-300s to 400s. i know it's not a lot. it's very narrow. >> john berman, you have been busy for us. thank you, my friend. we'll see you, hopefully, if you're sending in the next hour. >> it's a whole new world. >> we'll send the magic carpet your way. >> thanks a lot. >>> we do have reporters on the ground in key areas across the country. josh is at the election center right now. josh, the board of supervisors said there were some 400,000 votes that still have to be countward you are. what's the latest on that? >> reporter: that's right, boris. we're talking about 400,000. that includes 290,000 ballots that were dropped off. they were in envelopes and dropped off on election day. for whatever reason, someone had their ballot but decided they wanted to go to a

republican congresswoman lauren boebert faced a serious challenge from a former local city councilmanas conceded -- frisch has conceded despite being just 554 votes behind being 454 that the race was a it was so close. if that's the case, why concede before the recount? >> great to see let me say this way, i want to be sincere we made a concession. it wasn't a legal concession, no concession is what it was a sincerely held concession. the chance of the recount changing 450 votes is so tiny i didn't want to change my view from life and politics about trying to be authentic and sincere. there were a lot of people who wanted to send us a lot of money, which was great. maybe i am crazy for turning back down. we also had a lot of people out there in the country that were going to be insincere about generating a tremendous a lot of money and using it for other things that had nothing to do with this race. we made the decision that we would concede. i made that call to the presented of lauren boebert a little before i went on the air on friday afternoon. again, if there was more than a handf

lisa: fact, republican lauren boebert in colorado is now leading again. last night, she was not, but this is a race that is just about 700 votes difference between her and adam. we have 98% or so of the expected vote with more coming in. this one has really been a barn burner and it could flip back again but right now, representative lauren boebert feeling a lot better than she did last night. let's look at another one of these states. california. katie porter, a very well-known, high-pfile representative. she is leading in her race right now by just 58% of the vote. these california races will take a long time. the largest group of races outstanding are in california so that is going to be a problem figuring out how big the majority is for kevin mccarthy. let's look at one more. las vegas. suzy lee was up by less than a point last night when we checked in. she is gaining more. she is up by two points. a whopping two points. republicans i talked -- i talked to some involved in that state who know this race well. they think they have a chance in this race.

trump got 60%, boebert sitting down to 65. almost a ten-point improvement for adam fresh here, it's a big part of the district here. so he seems very much in the game, although seaside just took you, through if he pulls it out, that's a democratic game. >> we have a projection to, make an important and closer watch u.s. senate, race this is the u.s. senate race, in the great state of north carolina. this is an open senate, feet made open by republican retirement at the projected winner, is a republican candidate. republican congressman ted budd, had a hard fought race against democrat cheri beasley, who is a former state supreme court justice, but ted budd is the projected winner, in north carolina. on a bring in claire mccaskill, in response to some of the stuff that we have just been hearing. in response to this north carolina race that we've just had the protection in, claire. >> yeah, listen, it's always hard when you go, gosh, if we could just put more money in their. elise keep in mind, where the investments were made, a

. >> there has been a lot made about some of colorado's elected leaders and lauren boebert in particular who almost lost her race, eeked out a win to keep being a representative there and she in the past has, you know, people say targeted the lbgtq community unfairly. she's tweeted out today her thoughts and prayers are with the families and the victims in this violent incident, but she's been called a hypocrite and part of the problem in response. what is the reaction in colorado? what's the reaction, the general reaction to this? and is there a sense that, that this can be stopped? >> you know, i think the initial reaction is shock. but we're also not surprised that this happened. this again, it has been pushed by a party here in the state of colorado to continue to demonize our communities, and to continue to make us less human than any other community. and the rhetoric that has been spewed by so many folks on the right, especially leading up to an election, using that as a platform, i think they didn't realize how much, what they were saying were going to fall on people's ears and ho

laura boebert is someone who has run to make a lot point.ers in this district want the coalition of normal by just a little bit. 96% of the vote in. we will be watching this. amna: not get closer. we have talked about how election to nihilism has been on the ballot. this is the first big test for that. lisa: i think the primary that we are watching is the arizona governors race. and our stephanie sy will be talking about that. rit now, another 50-50, we are not making this up. katie hobbs, the democrat, secretary of state is winning by 4000 votes over kari lake, former tv news anchor. 67% of the expected vote here. ngthis rwaactce coituld go dcarefully. kari lake is someone who has run on a platform of saying the 2020 election was stolen, into change how she believes those are handled. and how elections are handled. let's look at other deniers as we call them of the 2020 election, who have no found evidence for that. these in this column are those we have categorized. . look at what has happened overnight. almost all of them have lost their

right now between adamfrisch, the democrat, and lauren boebert the republican.olically symbolically there are a lot of democrats who would like to defeat lauren boebert. in terms of the math of the house, this becomes critical. given everything i've shown you, they're probably not going to be able to light up everything here but they need to light up just about everything on this list i'm showing you, they need to defend just about everything on this list that i'm showing you here, including all of these california seats. that's the kind of combination for democrats to land, at 218 219 seats. something like that, it would be the ultimate inside stream and politics that's. we would take. i got much more to come in this election i stay with us. stay with us. and lost some weight. announcer: ozempic® provides powerful a1c reduction. in studies, the majority of people reached an a1c under 7 and maintained it. ozempic® lowers the risk of major cardiovascular events such as stroke, heart attack, or death in adults also with known heart disease. and you may lose weight

if they got the third, if they got the 27th, they would be at 219, and if lauren boebert hangs on in colorado, third, they would be at 220. there is a very competitive race in california's 13th that could probably go either way. so i think, you know, republicans, is it going to be 220, is it going to be 221? that seems to be where this looks like it will most likely land. first they got to get to 218 and we will see if there is a call there today. >> show me lauren boebert's district one more time to show you where it stands. there is a lead of 1100. there is a deadline tonight, midnight wednesday night, for the curing of ballots, so i think tomorrow is when we will get some clarity potentially in the boebert race. >> so interesting that we are still talking about that race in particular. steve kornacki, thank you so much. >>> let's talk about margins here, because margins matter. and to do that, let's bring in from capitol hill punchbowl an msnbc political contributor jake sherman. 220, 221, this is a tight margin for the republicans to control the house and an even tighter margin f

now, by most accounts boebert was the significant favorite going into this race.y republican district in gop hands since 2011 but, you know, this race perhaps best illustrating how close the contest is between the republicans and the democrats in this election cycle. t.j.? >> all right, mola, we thank you. >>> the race for the house played out a little differently than a lot of people had expected. let's bring in our abc news political director rick klein to break it down. we kept hearing about a red wave. was it a red ripple at least? what was it? >> definitely more in the ripple territory. the magic number is 218. look, the republicans more likely to get there when all the races are projected than the democrats but this is a glance at the districts that each party was defending. basically sorted from the easiest to the hardest to defend. so you can see the democrats were able to hold a bunch of their seats. they lost a few on the margins here but they also picked up some republican seats including, you know, ohio and north carolina, in illinois. meanwhile, the d

. >> in colorado this is lauren boebert's seats. she is a republican fire brand, election denier.he is someone democrats would love, i mean, they would just love to defeat her. right now she is trailing, she is trailing by, you know, 4,000 votes, almost 5,000 votes with 88% in. i do want to caution democrats not to get overexcited. one of the places where there is still quite a bit of vote to count, there's 86% in is in mesa county the most populous county in the state, her home base, she has a healthy lead there, she could make up that margin, but a tight race for lauren boebert there. another race i want to point out he was just in new york, i was telling you about the problems democrats are having in new york. let me go back there. this is the seat held by sean patrick maloney, westchester and other counties nearby, he's trailing by about a point, by 3,000 votes, 98% in. there is still more vote to be counted. republicans would love to defeat him here. this would be a symbolic victory for them, taking out the chair of the democratic congressional campaign committee, part of wha

as close as this race is right now lauren boebert and nevada, look at the closest races in history.he presidency, folks. i note ralph nader won 98,000 votes in florida that year. it's a reminder every vote counts. but how about six. six? >> whoa. >> yeah. that was the margin in 2020 for iowa's second district house seat won by miller meeks. six votes, folks. the closest race in u.s. senate history, two votes, 1974 new hampshire. this was a revelation. this took months, almost a year to litigate through its final iterations. >> could you imagine if that happened now? it was stolen. >> crazy town. >> yeah. >> you know what you don't get closer than? >> what? >> zero. >> what? >> zero. 2017, virginia house of delegates tied. >> i remember this. >> not only did it tie, the parties were evenly split so control of the delegate house came from pulling a name out of a bowl. cnn carried it live. >> wait, i remember that. >> i remember that, because we aired it. >> it was a coin toss basically. >> it's funny, ait's the same with new hampshire and iowa and the caucuses, coin flips. >> tuesday

. >> after the shooting, lauren boebert tweeted the news out of colorado springs is awful, this violence needs to end and end quickly. fast-forward to now and we have from our nbc affiliate in denver, boebert vowing to continue her antitrans rhetoric and rejecting calls from critics to be accountable for her words. saying it's disgusting to blame this on me and try to say i've had bad rhetoric about the lgbtq community. that's completely false. you think after something like this, the rhetoric would cool off. what are you actually seeing? >> unfortunately, that's not the case. in the end, you can't spend years and years and midterm elections demonizing lgbtq people, working to pass anti-lgbq legislation and trying to inoculate yourself against you're a part of this problem by tweeting this is a tragic and it's terrible that it happened. what we've seen throughout the last year and even before and certainly in midterm elections is a concerted effort by right-wing people like her to drum up antilgbtq sentiment and motivate voters to go to the polls. and these right-wing influencers can't s

this is lauren boebert the very conservative election denier. she now leads by 433 votes. this flipped. adam frisch was up by 64 votes a little bit earlier today. she has taken the lead and we do expect to hear more votes reported from there over the next several hours, guys. >> yeah. significant gain for boebert given that we were just talking about margin of some 60 votes just a couple of hours ago. john berman, we'll go down the disney vault another time. thank you so much. >>> well, president biden is set to take a victory lap just moments from now in washington, and while there are still several key races still undecided, he's calling out the lack of this so-called expected red wave. >> while we don't know all the results yet, at least i don't know them all yet, here's what we do know. while the pundits have predicted a giant red wave, it didn't happen. >> let's go to cnn's arlette sines. do we know what the president is expected to hit on in this event? >> reporter: both biden and kamala harris will be speaking here today to thank those democratic volunteers who help

. >> let's talk for a second about lauren boebert, the controversial colorado congress member. too close to call. i forget what the latest projection is. >> it's still not a callable race. i think a lot of democrats were prematurely doing a victory dance. yesterday, republicans got good news when lauren boebert retook the lead because some of the late counted in-person and mail ballots had been trending her way, particularly in pueblo and mesa county. she's been able to reclaim this lead of over 1,000 votes. i think it's difficult for the democrat to overcome that with what i understand is still remaining, which is not very much. we will see in the days to come. >> on arizona, nbc is waiting for more votes to come in before making a projection in the senate race. you seem confident senator kelly is far ahead. >> he is in a great position. although, nbc has not called this race. look, catherine cortez masto, you know, you would rather be her than adam laxalt at this point given what we know about the nature of the outstanding ballots in clark county. mark kelly is in an even str

i do not advocate violence -- >> but people like boebert are calling -- >> there's i dig -- >> people in the lgbtq community. she's using words like "rumors," right, which insinuating it could lead to violence. is that contributing to what we saw? let me let scott answer that. scott, can you answer my question? >> yeah, look, like i said, i don't know of any republican politicians who are out there calling on people to commit violence. and i think it's a pretty far jump. these issues have become hot button issues in america and certainly republican politicians have picked up on it. and some use heated rhetoric. but i'd still defy you to find a republican member of congress or anybody else who's out there saying, let's go commit violence against a particular community. i just don't think that's happening. and beyond that, we still don't know everything we need to know about this guy before those kinds of jumps are made. to me, i'm wait and see on this. but i would just say, violence is wrong. rhetoric should be cooled down. but i think to ascribe violence to people, republican politici

boebert was called out for hateful speech writing, words matter.w from colorado springs is nbc's steve patterson. five more families with empty chairs at the table this thanksgiving. what are we hearing from the victims' loved ones? >> reporter: just a particularly difficult time, especially right before a holiday. unimaginable loss. unimaginable tragedy for these families. really just heartbreaking for the community in general. colorado springs, a place where from what we have heard, there aren't that many safe places for the lgbtq community. this one behind me was not only the biggest, it was the brightest. it was thought to be the safest one and have that taken away, especially with a lot of families in this community, a place where that would be a welcome space to gather if somebody didn't have a family, i think it's that much more difficult, especially here in this community. then for the families, my gosh, i think there's this assumption that i had as well -- not having a tragedy of this level in my life -- to where you would assume that mour

boebert. >> don't get me started. >> thank you. >> but drama queens. they love to create drama.laptop thing is coming up again. why? you know what i mean? they've got no plan, none that i've heard of. >> there is no plan. so they have to play drama. >> its infrastructure day. now they're gonna try to impeach biden. >> but here's the problem. and it's not just republicans. it's also when you have years now, we have years of investigations. we have people on both sides that they were partisan in nature in that they were wrong. now you get a party that says, okay, we're gonna do the same thing to you because you did to us. and now you get in this tit-for-tat, and it's not what the american people want. and it's going to be -- >> okay, but investigating donald trump and all that he did is totally different from hunter biden, who has nothing to do with -- >> i'm not equating the two things, what i'm saying is the perception, depending on which side of the aisle you are on, is that you are unfairly being investigated. and so when you get your opportunity, what are you going to do? we'

right now we've got the incumbent republican lauren boebert railing. 49.4% of the vote to adam frisch is 50.6. again, we'll have to wait and see how things turn out. but with 93.4% of the vote counted so far, if these trends continue, this could also be a pickup for democrats. it's still up in the air. stay tuned. coming up. >> yeah, james, facebook's parent company. meta is laying off thousands of people this morning. coming up, the reasons for the layoffs and how the plans to move forward. >> and today is set to be a cool one, but not a rainy one like yesterday was mid 50's at the coast. upper 50's to low 60's elsewhere. i'm talking more details and the rest of the week's forecast. still ahead. and as we go to the break, here's a look at the board of supervisors. races in san francisco will be right back. >> it's going to be so sunny and it's doing hold. i looked straight sometimes that sunshine doesn't work for some and yet today, even though we get all the sign still feels just as cold as yesterday, but better to get outside. still the dogs want to go out at i'm glad to get kind o

boebert trailed fresh most of the night tuesday despite trump carrying her district by more than 8 points in 2020 >> nick smith for us there. the national archives will release 75 pages of their communications with former president donald trump regarding the documents seized at mar-a-lago in august. this is dissatisfied more than 50 freedom of information act requests. these include e-mails to representatives of former president trump himself as well as other outside related to the 15 boxes that were taken. but the agency is still withholding more than 900 pages because of the ongoing investigation. so candidates. and alameda county are left in a holding pattern right now. a large number of votes are still being counted with oakland's ranked choice voting. it's even harder to predict the outcome. the latest figures released on election night show that terry wiley, one of the candidates running for alameda county district attorney. has 51% of the votes and his opponent, pamela price currently at 48%, oakland unified school district candidate mike hutchinson says the city relies on ranked c

boebert as an extreme conservative election denying gun loving member of congress there. 90% reporting right now. there is still more to count but democrats would love to pick up this seat just for the symbolic value. the converse of that is if we go to the state of new york where actually democrats here and i will show you a filter here, democrats here are really underperforming what they had hoped. there are ten competitive districts in the state of new york for congress, republicans are leading in eight of the ten competitive districts. two years ago in these same borders eight of these ten were joe biden districts. so it's completely topsy-turvy in terms of what democrats had hoped for there. and in the races that are uncalled you can see they include this district right here, you showed it before, sean patrick maloney the democratic congressional campaign committee chair is down by 3,200 votes, 98% in. to the north of him pat ryan won a special election in a district that was a little different, he is only ahead by 687 votes, 97% in. super close here in new york's 19
