dan mccready has a lot more money. he will be using that money to attack dan bishop for giving a donation to a social media later became a hotbed for white nationalists. bishop is denying that he knew that cite was headed that direction and that he regrets was headed that direction and that he regrets that. it probably won't be a high turnout. i give dan bishop a tiny edge. host: if democrats do win that the, what does that do for hopes of republicans taking back the house in 2020? guest: it would be icing on the cupcake for democrats after gaining 40 seats in 2018. there's less urgency for democrats now that they've already taken back the house. maybe there won't be the same rocket fuel dynamic in the democratic base to turn out and vote in a late-summer special election. host: which we've seen in previous cycles. massive amounts of money that went into these special elections. guest: right. nice for democrats, it would be more demoralizing for republicans after 2018 and another setback in their drive to take back cont

party controls the house in the white house, it features republican dan bishop against democrat dan mccreadyls show the race to be extremely tight, immigration is a hot issue with republican blasting law enforcement officials. democrat pushing more bipartisan approach. >> several sheriffs in the the state have said that, i think it's a not only totally inappropriate in terms of ordinary concepts of cooperation but it is putting us at risk. >> it should secure our border. it should respect our laws and it should uphold our values. >> president trump won that district by 11% and republicans have held that seat since 1963. that was before a district court redrew the gerrymandered boundaries to correct underrepresentation, adding two g.o.p. worries the special election is only happening because last november's result a 905 vote win by mark harris was not certified, a staffer was found to have engaged in ballot fraud, he was charged with a crime. the winner ultimately quit and agreed a new election without him should take place. democrat mccready has the advantage of exposure. republicans are thr

dan bishop and dan mccready. a trump backer who will answer any question about anything. and then you have mccready who won't answer anything. they keepg. asking him, are you far from borders. i going to from senate. it just looks like it is coming down to the wire. i would just ask david what his take on this race was. >> a very competitiveti do over election. keep in mind that this race came down to a couple hundred votes in 2018. it was found that absentee ballot fraud was prevalent enough that it warranted another election. which is why the seat has been vacant for nine months. we had it in our tossup column. i doo think republicans may have a slight edge here. the reason is dan bishop, the republican state senator represents the portion of the ninth congressional district where democrats typically have done well. if bishop can neutralize the election in his own backyard, then it is hard to see the democrat making up that margin in a more conservative area in this districtmc county. he will be using that money to attack bishop for giving a donation to a social media p

dan bishop took their side. >> reporter: mirroring national controversies, attempting to tie bishop to white supremacy, a charge he denies. >> i'll go to congress and fight these clowns for you. >> reporter: and paint mccreadys he's running as a moderate as a liberal who would go with the squad. do you feel you're running against bishop or trump? >> i'm running against dan bishop. unfortunately for him, he's not running against a socialist. he's running against a capitalist who's built a business from scratch. he's running against a united states marine. >> reporter: and dan bishop is going to be getting more help. don jr. here yesterday, his father donald trump the president will be back in north carolina at a rally on election eve to support bishop. this is an important race for republicans. john, mccready says he's going to keep doing what he's been doing for more than two years now. simply going out, talking to people, and letting them know he's going to be the best representative for them. >> home stretch there after 27 months. thanks so much for being with us this morning. >>> so on a related note, if you look around congress lately, a surprisingly high number of republicans who were there before dona

. >> that was dan mccready, the democrat there. >> he's also a veteran, which is what democrats are reallye. this is a big race. we always overinterpret special elections but this one has real potential. if the democrats can win that, it shows that the suburban voters, trump has lost them. he has really pushed health care, which was their winning issue in 2018, and we'll see if that still has the power that it did back then. >> i don't know, i'm going to disagree with you there. i think more times than not we interpret the special election the right way because it pour tendings -- sometimes it doesn't go that way. >> i've blown a few. >> it will have some impact based on how republicans down ballot decide to campaign, how much they nationalize their races and how much they distance themselves potentially from donald trump based on how this race potentially turns out. >> and the suburban thing is really incorporamportant. it's not just where it is in the electoral map, it's where the district is. >> if suburban voters in the south are turning on republicans, they have a real problem. >> tha

and dan mccready, he served in the marines, and he created jobs as a solar energy investor and is alsolth care. so those are issues. but i think the biggest issue is going to be the economy. this is why this special election might not be that telling. but it's an interesting district, lisa. it runs from the eastern part of charlotte all the way out to near fayetteville. it covers blue and red. >> lisa: they always say -- which is kind of lame -- special elections are special for a reason. but they really are. this is an isolated race outside of what we will see in 2020, when you look at a whole federal landscape going on. it really is an isolated incident. so i wouldn't try to draw too much conclusion from this. as we've already stated, we are so far out from 2020 we don't even know the nominee is going to be. we don't know the issues that are going to be dominating the forefront, either. you can't really draw too much conclusion. >> elizabeth: that's a great point. maybe it will be a bellwether on how voters come out on the issues. what matters to them. we would be born a security? th

. >> back in november of 2018, gop house candidate mark harris beat his democratic rival dan mccreadyy a razor-thin margin. but right away, allegations of ballot tampering emerged. so basically, this whole thing is about whether or not this election was decided fraudulently. like a 900-vote margin in the campaign. the harris campaign accused of illegally going door to door to collect mail-in ballots and altering them to help the republican ticket. and until it's sorted out, the congressional seat is empty. >> we're sitting here -- >> there's no representative. is there any evidence that harris knew about this? >> well, that's what they're trying to find out. mr. harris -- >> while jacob and i were talking, harris and his team took a break from the hearing. >> let's go that way. >> we wanted to get some answers straight from the source. >> mr. harris, what do you have to say about the illegal ballot harvesting by people associated with your campaign? >> did you know about it, mr. harris? >> did you know about the illegal ballot harvesting? >> if you're confident that you won, don't you

dan mccready has a lot more money. using that money to attack dan bishop for giving a donation to a social media later became a hotbed for white nationalists. bishop is denying that he knew that cite was headed that direction and that he regrets was headed that direction and that he regrets that. it probably won't be a high turnout. i give dan bishop a tiny edge. host: if democrats do win that the, what does that do for hopes of republicans taking back the house in 2020? guest: it would be icing on the cupcake for democrats after gaining 40 seats in 2018. there's less urgency for democrats now that they've already taken back the house. maybe there won't be the same rocket fuel dynamic in the democratic base to turn out and vote in a late-summer special election. host: which we've seen in previous cycles. massive amounts of money that went into these special elections. guest: right. nice for democrats, it would be more demoralizing for republicans after 2018 and another setback in their drive to take back control of the

dan mccready faces dan bishop and jeff scott and alan smith. 2013ady ran in the election.or both parties, the special election is considered a harbinger of 2020. that is why outside groups have spent millions on the race. from mark, democrats line. you are next up on your top issue for congress and your member of congress. caller: good morning and thank you for c-span. i want to reiterate what kim from north carolina said. issue isimportant climate change across the board. if we destroy the planet, what else matters? all the petty infighting republicans and democrats do will be so meaningless in the future when we are having a hard time breathing. i believe we should have very firm regulations, we should have electric cars, solar and wind energy only, there is so many things we can do, the science is there and members of congress keep fighting and it is pathetic. host: do your members that represent you hold the same views you do when it comes to climate? aller: i know i have democrat representation, which i am glad about, but i believe they can be stronger. i have written

the special election between dan bishop and democrat dan mccready is september 10th.his forever home. meet b.j. a 26-pounder with a lot of the cattitude. guess what we are not kitten. the shelter tweeting these adorable photos omg mr. b. is a chunk, a chunk of a chunk. adopt this jumbo size package of fluff and love. apparently a lot of people are feline like is he a pur-fect match for them. by is so popular the site is down right meow. brian: are you sure that's not a leopard? jillian: it's a cat. steve: all the cat puns. jillian: you are welcome for reading it like that. steve: well done. brian: jillian, see you soon. have one of janice's donuts. 13 minutes after the hour -- which will not win the contest. some democrats support 2020 reparations. will they put money on the line? our next guest went to find out. >> is there any way i can have the money enough to? like i got cash app., paypal, ventricle know. >> you probably want to take extra bill pending in the house. more than just dishes. with 3x more grease cleaning power per drop, it tackles tough grease on a va

dan bishop, the candidate. he's a strong, fiscal conservative. mccready is a democrat. he's actually very vulnerable on nonpartisan issues because he won't answer questions and it looks like he's hiding liberal views. and the voters are starting to sense that. so, i think in the one way, every election for congress has a local element. they have people they like and don't like. this one is starting to become nationalized. it's going to be, will a trump supporter, republican, be able to win what should be a republican seat against a democrat who tries to distance himself from nancy pelosi? tries to, but then has overwhelming support from radical environmental groups aligned with some of the new green deal and the most radical elements of their agenda. so, i think it's a test. will a mainstream conservative republican, who supports the president, win against a democrat who claims not to be a socialist like everybody else, but in reality is supported by the same forces? >> you tend to get involved more often in open seats, but you haven't been afraid to challenge republica
