bucks county, as you know , is the most purple of the philly burbs . if it comes down to pennsylvania it will come down to the philly burbs. donald trump has lost his county twice but by different margins. if he could keep a close or when it as in 2016 it would be a good sign for him. if the margin out of the county as it was in 2020 it is problematic for donald trump a good news for kamala harris. the county is shaped like a rectangle. you are in lower book which tends to be dense and democratic, the farther north you move the more rural and conservative it becomes. where i am in doylestown, my hometown where i was born and raised , is really a purple area . this is the purple list of those counties. if you know what's going to happen here, you have a good insight into how this all turns out. >> i had some good insight this morning , we spoke to the first motor heading in and she lied up more than an hour before and she said she wanted to be here to vote in person and she was voting for donald trump because she said what her focus was the economy, the

she tells me that one over, even lifelong democrats in her town has been sell them in bucks, county. they did not feel a so what the democratic party was fighting for anymore was the things that they believed in economic basics was a huge thing. economics to have a lot of it and that's something we've heard over and over again here. the economy, but also immigration and foreign affairs simply felt better managed under donald trump sentiment his campaign capitalized on in purple counties like this one. until november, 5th bucks, county had not voted for public in president in 35 years or weeks leading up to election day. places like these in bucks, county pennsylvania were fiercely fight over by both comma harris and donald trump . that effort paid off for the president elect. one of the counties like a little over $500.00 clubs. that slipped margin means expectations for trump 2nd term are mixed here. in nearby doylestown, we spoke to residents about what they imagine the next 4 years will be like more money in my pocket. uh, close the border down. illegal aliens. yes. going to be mu

with that recount underway, bucks county officials say they will now comply with the state supreme court order to throw out illegal ballots after a county commissioner said this a few days ago. listen. >> i think we all know that precedent by a court doesn't matter anymore in this country and people violate laws any time they want. so for me, if i violate this law it is because i want a court to pay attention to it. and there is nothing more important than counting votes. >> sandra: nate foye has more. >> this commissioner apologized yesterday claimed her comments were taken out of context and that she meant to refer to provisional ballots rather than the mail-in ballots the state supreme court already ruled on. >> it was genuinely not the best words. i would do it all again. i feel terrible about it. i should have been more clear. please, i will be more clear in the future. >> but bucks county residents heard the commissioner say she would break state law and count ineligible votes. when she tried connecting her comments to abortion rights the crowd was not having it. >> when i inartful

and there is nothing more important than counting votes. >> bucks county now says it will follow this order while philadelphia county says it will continue to fight through every legal avenue. the court ruling has some wondering why casey hasn't conceded. he told fundraisers in a note last night quote, the answer is simple, pennsylvania deserves to have their voices heard and the worth of someone's vote is not determined by how long it takes to be counted. the replay will take place over the next week. >> bill: we're watching it. nate foye in new york. >> dana: we are awaiting a major decision out of new york. judge merchan is set to rule on trump's criminal conviction. trump's re-election upended a new york court's plans for falsifying business records. the question is really if you are following the bouncing ball, one of your favorite sayings, all these trump cases i will give you an update. this is the new york criminal case. we're waiting because his team said well he just won the election. can we see what we should do next? prosecution agreed to that. now they have to go before a

to win pennsylvania, youable and to be on the top end in bucks county. at the moment, the vice president is on the losing end. then you move over here to lehigh county. both candidates in the final days with the madison square garden event. will trump lose the puerto rican vote, the latino voice? at the moment, harris, 95%. not a lot of room for this toto change. she's winning the county. but she's not winning the county again, look at joe biden. trump had the advantage. it was a pandemic. you can rationalize it away. we do the math and the math is that she's running behind. 53% for the president. and once again, the vice president. it will be a lot of conversations about blue collar workers. is it racism? is it sexism? this will be the conversation. here's the place. this is trump country, pennsylvania. you always look at the margins where the other guy is winning or the other gal is winning. you want to cut into their margins. donald trump at 60. the vice president at 39%. you come back here. joe biden at 39%. when you're winning, round them up. when yo

one of those counties they stopped in was bucks county.e multiple stops but bucks county perhaps the most critical swing county. their voters endured hours long lines to participate in on demand mail-in voting. the unique process ended tuesday but it was extended through today after a judge sided with the trump campaign which sued because some voters had been turned away earlier this week. the bucks county communications director stated in part, we've added people to help process, we are throwing all the resources we can add it. in 2020 democrats had a 3-1 mail-in ballots admission advantage. this year 553,000 republicans returned there's so far compared with 947,000 registered democrats. that's 2-1. an improvement for republicans. here in chester county drop box was buzzing this afternoon because it's too late to mail back the ballots. 2020 president biden secured 57.8% of the vote but some mines have changed since then. >> trump is my choice. >> reporter: who did you like last time? >> last time it was joe biden. >> reporter: biden and t

a bucks county spokesperson told bbc verify that mail—in ballot queues can be cut off if there are toog for mail—in ballots was october 29th, when most of these claims came to a crescendo, but a judge has extended the deadline for bucks to november the 1st after trump took action in the county. and they're also widespread claims about registration fraud which trump has highlighted. in lancaster county in the south, officials say they are investigating around 2500 suspected fraudulent voter registration applications. the county for context has over three to 65,000 registered voters. as election day gets closer and more claim service —— surface about the integrity of the election, officials are keen to emphasise that the selection can —— this election can still be trusted. following this information has been a huge issue impacting us politics in previous elections. our team has looked into the impact of russian disinformation, specifically a network that's been impersonating dozens of media organisations including the bbc which has been sharing fake news, reports about the us election. h

if no, we'd like to take look at bucks county. there's a lot of legal issues taking place here.president biden might be taking questions. we know he was in pennsylvania, at least in philadelphia last night. he's speaking still. he was speaking to union workers, this is a campaign event. he looks pretty fiery right now in his remarks that he's making, encouraging everyone to cast their ballot because in bucks county, that's one example of areas where people have been very, very passion name. pennsylvania has on-demand, mail-in voting. it's been prolifically used this year, but long lines and confusion have been plaguing especially there in bucks. the trump force 47 bus tour went through bucks yesterday, and mississippi republican senator cindy hyde smith was onboard or or and showed how dedicated those voters had been. >> they weren't about to get out of that line. people are committed, they're excited, they want a better america, and they will be glad to tell you about it. >> reporter: already been widespread complaints from erie county residents when say they -- >> so right the

now, bucks county is the only purple suburb of philadelphia that could very well swing the must that could very well swing the must win keystone state for either vice president harris or donald trump next week. polls show they're locked in almost a dead heat with leads for either candidate well within the margins of error. as for the pennsylvania senate race the democrat bob casey holds a slim lead over his opponent, dave mmm cormic. the last few days of the campaign are crucial which is why today they announced the final location on monday right in front of the rocky steps of the museum in pennsylvania, the state she seems to be betting onto win this thing. joining me now democratic senator bob casey. senator, you are down to the wire. what's happening? what's changing in pennsylvania, if anything? >> ali, great to be with you. the difference in my race that you're seeing playing out right now is the influx of billionaires. out-of-state billionaires funding 80% of the television advertising for my opponent. so you have out-of-state billionaires funding in essence an out-of-state can

the mccormick campaign said bucks county violated the law and an effort to help senator casey.ormick is pleased with this really looks forward to take the oath of office in a few short weeks. pennsylvania governor josh shapiro wait in as well and saying any incidents insinuation our laws can be ignored and do not matter is irresponsible and does fate to r process. the commonwealth and as i have always said it is critical for counties and officials in both parties to respect it with both rhetoric and directions. mccormick leads democratic incumbent senator bob casey by 17,000 votes but associated press called the race for mccormick november 7th young outstanding ballots would not be enough for casey to overtake mccormick. >> the state supreme court which is 5-2 democrat majority literally wrote it in all caps like saying, you guys, we told you this already! and you were doing it and so we are going to tell you again like they were 7-year-old children. even if they were able to count illegal votes, it does not matter. mccormick still would win by about 10,000 plus. speak of the r

well the rnc and the trump campaign, they sued bucks county. they got the deadline extended. so today actually only in bucks county voters have an opportunity to do that early voting really that on demand mail in voting until the end of the day. so, sarah, these are all these sorts of stories that are kind of swirling around pennsylvania in these final days before the election it's challenging. it's confusing to some voters. and really, when it comes to mail in balloting, the legislature of pennsylvania had opportunities to kind of get in there and fix some issues over the past several years since they introduced this back in 2019, and they just haven't. and i think now you're seeing some of that come to fruition again in these final days before the 2024 election. sarah, there'll be lots of questions about whether voters, if they accidentally put the wrong date, can cure that. lots of questions here. and it's such an important state with 19 electoral votes. danny freeman thank you so much for your reporting, john all right. >> republican liz cheney responds after donald trump

minnesota governor tim walz spoke to union members in bucks county pennsylvania. bucks county is the only purple suburb of philadelphia that could very well swing the must- win keystone state for either vice president, harris or former president trump next week. polls show the race in pennsylvania is locked in an almost dead heat with leads for either candidate well within the margins of error. as for the pennsylvania senate race, the incumbent democrat bob casey held a slim lead over his republican opponent. the last few days of these campaigns are crucial which is why today the harris campaign announced the location of its final rally on monday, right in front of the rocky steps of the philadelphia museum in pennsylvania, a state she seems to be betting on to win this thing. joining me now is democratic senator bob casey was running for re-election in pennsylvania. good to see you. thanks for being with us. it is down to the wire in pennsylvania both for the presidential race and even your race, which did not look like it was going to be all that tight a few mon

29th in the state when most of these claims came to a crescendo but a judge has extended the county of bucksthe county. and they're also widespread claims about registration fraud which trump has highlighted. in lancaster county in the south, officials say they are investigating around 2500 suspected fraudulent voter registration applications. the county for contacts has over three to 65,000 registered voters. as election day gets closer and more claim service about the integrity of the election, officials are keen to emphasise that the selection can still be trusted. pennsylvania is not the only place where claims are emerging about voting. some are focused on voting machines made by a company called dominion. let me show you a couple of statements. first here's michigan's secretary of state, saying dominion voter access terminals "have an issue with the straight party voting and a programming issue which has affected the machines". we'll explain exactly what that means in a moment. then here's dominion saying: "there is no issue preventing any voters from voting or making their preferred s

we the people of the bucks county are fed out, your hearing is loud and clear. >> at philadelphia cityioners explained their process for counting ballots today, commissioners agreed to follow the state supreme court ruling to not count mail in ballots with a incorrect or missing dates but several of them said they disagree with that ruling. this in here. >> we know we got that ballot in time and therefore i believe in my opinion that that biology account. >> in the initial accounts, senator elect dave mccormick received 16,000 more votes then to the incumbent democratic senator bob casey, the results of the recount will come back next week, there are more than 1000 -- when does an open legal challenges in pennsylvania, over thousands of questionable ballots but even if every single one of them went for senator casey it would not be enough to make up the difference. despite that he still not ready to concede telling donors quote "i'm not giving up the fight, i hope you're not ready to give up either "big. >> martha: thank you very much for nate for. the president, ain't coming president

he's going to do well in bucks county. if kamala harris doesn't crush is in the philadelphia suburbs, she's going to lose. >> to the discussion earlier, it seems like he's intentionally doing things to pump up the vote in the philadelphia suburbs. >> that's one of the issues. this ad running nonstop. people watching the show, rjc ad running that has like four jewish mothers lamenting they don't like donald trump but they're concerned about their kids and anti-semitism and they think trump is going to make them safer in is some of the same narrative. we don't like trump, we're going to vote for him. >> i think you want her to perform like obama 2012 in philadelphia where he actually increased his black voter turnout by 4%. if she can do that, people thought he had maxed out in some places. he had not. he went, he found people who had not engaged in our democracy. if she can do that. that's what i mean with some surrogates. >> romney campaign. i just want to clarify i wasn't saying he was pumping up the vote for himself. i t

in bucks county a democratic commissioner made this argument when voting to count contested ballots.w that precedent by a court doesn't matter anymore in this up country, and people violate laws anytime they want. so for me, if i violate this law, t it's because i want a court to the pay attention to it. and there is nothing more important than counting votes. >> reporter: republican dave mccormick's campaign99 and the republican national committee are asking the state supreme court to affirm if its decision. bob casey's campaign, on the other hand, argues counties should be making their own decisions and that the high court should not intervene. casey has not conceded even though the associated press called the race on november if 7th saying the outstanding ballots would not be enough for him to overtake mccormick. mccormick leads casey at this point by about 20,000 votes, that's a threshold which under state law automatically triggers a recount. mccormick's team says the lead is insurmountable which the ap made clear in calling the race. a recount will be a waste of time and taxpay

we are here in bucks county that is the premier county to watch in pennsylvania.ulated. 650,000 people. president biden won it by 4 points in 2020. but now this year for the first time in 15 years, registered republicans outnumbered democrats. now, looking statewide, the commonwealth of pennsylvania. former president trump he woken the state narrowly in 2016. then lost it narrowly in 2020. so, for vice president harris, her success here in the state, potentially will depend on the colored counties, the suburbs, philadelphia, chester, here in bucks county that pushed president biden over the edge in 2020 so it's make or break. polls close at 8:00 p.m. that is not necessarily the case everywhere. in luzerne county there is one polling location in laflin. that is going to get extended until 9:30 p.m. some issues this morning are also why cambria countyna. sex tended to 10:00 p.m. tonight. those ballots cast by after 8:00 p.m. will be provisional. again, 2020, the count here is slow. took four days. but there were 2.6 million mail-in ballots: have been. >> alexandria,

here in bucks county voters have until 5:00 p.m.and mail-in voting. apply, fill out and turn in your mail-in ballot all in one visit. this in person mail voting ended tuesday across the commonwealth. it was extended here in bucks county after republicans sued following complaints that voters were being turned away earlier than the posted hours. democratic governor josh shapiro last night down played the concerns. >> our system is run by republican and democratic clerks of elections in our 67 counties. it's overseen by my secretary of state. bret, who is a republican. we will, again, have a free and fair safe and secure election. >> we spent time with new york congresswoman elise stefanik as she door-knocked for trump right here in philadelphia suburbs targeting jewish voters. >> do you believe that the jewish vote could be the difference maker in pennsylvania? >> it is going to be. i think not only in pennsylvania, but also in some key congressional districts. we were talking about new york state. if you look that significant shift

is it shearing up bucks county, which is one of the four collar counties in pennsylvania, which end uph a population larger than pennsylvania and pittsburgh combined? is it winning little votes in counties across the state, that might otherwise go republican, but add up to a higher vote total? is it all of the above? what has to happen? because the whole country is looking at pennsylvania. this is truly going to be where this all goes down. >> yeah, i think it is all of the above. i think you described it pretty well. we have to get our base vote out across the state. i do, so those kamala harris and tim walz and they are working at it every day to get the vote out. the number of volunteers is at historic levels. we are thankful for that. but, we have to make sure we get our vote out, but then in rural counties -- and we have 48 out of our 67 counties are rural, and all of them are republican counties -- as you can see on the map, there. those red counties, you have to reduce margins. but, i think the way that we do it, is not simply the work that is being done by the volunteers, but c

the eyes of the world are on pennsylvania in bucks county.e line formed out here at this polling station. this polling place has about 150 to 200 people already. there is an excitement here. we spoke to the very first person who got here at 5:20 in the morning. his name is bill enen, a 73-year-old. we spoke to an 18-year-old. his name is chris both say they are going to former president trump.

here in bucks county they see themselves on the screen right now. it means a lot. if he were to win bucks county, that would be the first time a republican presidential candidate has taken this county since 1988, and the suburbs of philadelphia, this is what pushed biden over the edge in 2020. harris needs to do well in these counties and she stand to have a chance of taking the state, g guys. bret, martha? >> bret: alex, thanks. >> martha: let's go to bill and see, what are you cooking up over there, bill? >> bill: we heard so much about msg and the insult comic about the puerto rican joke. trump, new york is his home. not living in florida, mar-a-lago. i'm going to go ahead and use the slide bar. eight years ago, running against hillary clinton, this is his margin in new york. 37.5 compared almost 15 for hillary clinton. and against joe biden, it was three tenths of a point, and now we come to 2020 and see the numbers on the board here. that's a pretty decent performance. we are getting some insight in new york city. he did well over 40% of the vote here in new y

simply if it i cuts into the margin that democrats need here in bucks county. heir seeing themselves on the screen right now. it means a lot. if he were to win county, bucks county, that would be the first time a republican presidential candidate has taken this county since 1988, and these suburbs of philadelphia, this is what pushed biden over the edge in 2020. harris needs to do well in these counties if she stands to have a chance of taking this state, guys. bret: alex, thanks. martha: thank you. so let's go to bill and see -- or what are you cooking up over there, or bill? >> i was just looking at new york. we heard so much about msg and the comic, the puerto rican joke? trump, you know, new york's his home, right? now living many florida, mar-a-lago, but just look at this. i'm going to go ahead and use the slide bar, and okay, eight years ago when he was running against hillary clinton,-the his margin in new york, all right? 37.5 compared to almost 59 for hillary clinton and then existence joe biden it was or, what, oh, my gosh, it was -- [laughter] it was

there is bucks county, montgomery county involved in unlawful counts of unlawful ballots.ately we are at the hands of thousands of votes and dave mccormick is in the lead and we are going to win. quite frankly, it is quite unconscionable of these counties are engaging in this behavior. we have been very clear about holding them accountable. our legal teams, rnc, we will hold the counties accountable for their actions because these election officials need to follow that allow. the supreme court in pennsylvania, which by the way, controlled by democrats have laid out what the law is. we are asking the counties to follow it and unfortunately two or more counties have decided that they will not do that. so we will fight to hold them accountable every day. >> carley: what you are referring to some democrat officials admitted to counting ballots the pennsylvania supreme court said should not be counted because they are lacking dates or signatures. here is one quote that really stands out. take a listen to this the bucks county commissioner what she plans to do with this recount

pressler was in bucks county pennsylvania, because of a controversy over what ballots would be counted in the senate recount. a frustrated county commissioner had said some misdated and unsigned ballots would be counted. despite the rules if i violate this law, it's because i want a court to pay attention to it. this went very viral, in part because of pressler. she apologized at the next meeting. >> the passion in my heart got the best of me, and i apologize again for that. i made a mistake but by then, the pennsylvania supreme court had ruled those ballots wouldn't be counted. >> pressler and his fans had won, yet they turned out anyway. and the room had a kind of intense vibe do you think that 2020 election was stolen? >> it definitely was stolen. >> okay, so can you explain something to me? why, if they can steal an election why would they steal it once? but not this year. >> because people were on to them. >> the divisions and the democrats made it very hard for them to try and steal it again. >> thank you to every single patriot that showed up today. we did it. i think what you h

. >> that is bucks county. yeah. oh my god, it's gone. read donald trump and if we look back in 2020, joe biden won this county by four points. and now donald trump has a narrow lead there in bucks county. it's always the tightest one. but it is one that biden won in 2020. it's also one that hillary won in 2016. >> i don't think i do have 2016. yeah 2016. you could see hillary clinton won it. >> gary johnson put up a strong two and a half. >> but i'm just saying, if donald trump is winning it now and not all the votes are counted, that's still significant. and it says something about how this night could go absolutely absolutely. and so if we look let's look at the outstanding vote here you can see bucks county still has quite a see down here that philadelphia county montgomery county delco, they all have a significant number of vote outstanding and so that is a key key moment of what we can see. now let's look at how kamala harris is outperforming what joe biden did in 2020. you can see that she is winning by more than joe biden in some

this was a controversial situation in bucks county.ing about about a hundred ballots. this is not going to tip the race but in a recount, every vote matters. the democratic election board in bucks county in defiance of a state supreme court ruling decided yesterday to count these ballots that may not have signatures on every single spot where you need them. when you vote provisional in p.a., you need to sign the ballot twice. they said if it only has one signature, they will allow it. that's in defiance of what the state supreme court said before the election. you're not supposed to defy the supreme court, and some of the comments from one of the democratic commissioners have gone absolutely viral on social media for the pretty strong stand that she took. take a listen. >> not going to second that, mostly because i think we all know that precedent by a court doesn't matter anymore in this country. and people violate laws anytime they want. so for me, if i violate this law, it's because i want a court to pay attention to it. >> and this

here's a democratic commissioner in bucks county explaining her decision. >> i think we all know thatdent by a court doesn't matter anymore in this country and people violate laws any time they want. so for me, if i violate this law, it's because i want a court to pay attention to it and there is nothing more important than counting votes. >> reporter: there's been a flurry of lawsuits. republican dave mccormick's campaign and republican national committee are asking the state supreme court to affirm its rulings. democratic senator bob casey's campaign argues the high court should not intervene to allow counties to make their own decisions. casey has not conceded even though the associated press called the race on november 7th saying the outstanding ballots would not be enough for him to overtake mccormick. mccormick leads casey by 20,000 votes. the margin falls within half a percentage points, under which state law triggers a recount. mccormick's team says senator-elect mccormick's lead is insurmountable which the ap made clear in calling the race. a recount would be a waste of time
