long battle, many verbal punches, new york will finally find out if former governor of new york, eliot spitzercome the city's new comptroller. what do new yorkers and wall street expect if spitzer is victorious in tomorrow's election? here is charlie with his take. >> this is the primary. not the general election. he is likely to win. heavily democratic. let's go through a couple headlines and let's whack it around. if he is victorious he will remake the come troller's office. it will be a mini version of ag's office. it will be very activist. probably gone after companies. he already said he wants to go after jamie dimon and jpmorgan, essentially to break up dimon's role as both chairman and ceo. we should point out that the new york city comptroller's office sounds like a sleepy office, only if you do the regular parts of the job. the office has subpoena power. it's a large institutional investor. that means, basically watches over investing of public money, of public pension money. this guy can really wreak havoc. it also puts him in the driver's seat to become mayor. for what we care, we c

and that's not going to go away very quickly. >> let me ask you about eliot spitzer, shift gears here, about the lawsuit you filed against spitzer. what are you looking to -- how are you expecting this to play out? what are you looking to achieve? you want those e-mails. >> we want 9 e-mails, yes, because we believe there are things in those e-mails that were just out of order. and we've been fighting to get them for several years. and ultimately i believe we will. you know, spitzer made remarks that were simply wrong. not only remarks. i mean, he's way overboard. >> defamation. >> that's why i'm suing him. absolutely. >> you saw him on this program also. >> i'm going to hold him accountable also. >> of course i saw him on this program. >> you say you're confident that what he did was improper and that the courts will have to decide that. this has been going on a long time, hank. >> i know that. >> you're there. >> i've been fighting for 8 1/2 years. i will continue to fight it as long as it takes. >> here we are on election day. >> yes. >> he's trying to become comptroller. >> yes. >

and eliot spitzer -- >> but she is 23, as you said. we cut her a little more slack than we do for anthony weiner. >> eliot spitzer's race was tight. >> 53%. now, diana nyad, we were talking about it yesterday. we were sort of standing up for her for this 64-year-old woman who finished this 110-mile race from cuba all the way to the keys. >> she swam all the way. and then there were these naysayers saying oh, diana nyad, blah, blah, blah. >> so for 3 1/2 hours yesterday she was on a phone conference call with these swimmers that were questioning her. >> well, she actually spoke. >> yes. >> why don't we listen to what she had to say? >> okay. >> don't i deserve a little luck after i've had so much bad luck on my previous four tries? i had at least the persistence to keep trying until finally we got a little luck on our side. when you set a huge world record like this, you've got to vet it. you've got to ask every question. you've got to put the swimmer under a microscope and make her answer all these questions. i did the swim with my own

i think there is a 51% chance eliot spitzer will lose tomorrow. establishment is against him. although he has outspent his opponent by 10:1 or something. we shall see, to be very interesting to see how this thing goes tomorrow. it is the democratic nomination in a heavily democratic city putting eliot spitzer in office. we got into that, you and i. it looks like he is leading that race, but that could be a little tighter. my guess is if they are in a runoff, thompson will actually win when the runoff is over because i think everybody who did not vote will now vote for thompson. it'll be an interesting coalition. a really smart guy, think is much more conservative fiscally. and much better mayor. he was city controller. cheryl: charlie gasparino, thank you very much. it will be fun in new york city tomorrow. 30 minutes to go. coming up next, trading on treasury worries. what that means for the broader market. the playbook for rising interest. 10-year treasury note hovering below 3%, and the fed getting ready for the big meeting next week. we went out and asked people a simple q

>> well i think eliot spitzer has a reputation as a wall street crusader. is the support of the establishment in new york city. he has gotten all of the endorsement in the race. spitzer has been out of the game a while. and nowhere on the field. in a race where there are 3 million registered democrats, 500,000 to 700,000 expected to have voted in the race. only really hard-core, engaged voters turned out. that's the people who are following their local machines and those are the pooh who backed stringer. >> basically the stringer model is playing it safe, playing it traditional. in a campaign which is what it seemed to me that christine quinn campaign was. why didn't that work for her? >> well the difference is stringer had this sort of support across the board. christine quinn was kind of operating in this almost conservative wing of the new york city democratic party, allied with bloomberg. she had some establishment support coming from bloomberg but not across throughout the city elected establishment. >> so in the run-off -- de blasio/thompson run-off.

before we wrap this up i have to ask you about eliot spitzer.for defamation claim against him. he made comments on tv. you know, long time nemesis of yours. we should point out that the charges he brought against you have been mostly thrown out. >> yes. >> vast majority, the ones that are left seem pretty picayune. how did you feel the night that eliot spitzer lost the bid to reenter politics as new york city comptroller? >> i felt very, very good. >> did you? >> i did. >> why is that? >> first of all, you know he, he was, he was a disgraced politician. he did not, i -- >> right. i do not believe that he understood some of the things that he was bringing charges. >> do you think he was a bad guy? >> yeah, i do think he was a bad guy. >> we have breaking news. guys back to you. thank you, hank. a pleasure. >> good to be with you, charlie. >> thank you, gentlemen. lori: this is a bit of a breaking news. this is another trading glitch. options trading halted after several u.s. exchanges because of data feed pricing options to traders. omx, bats, mi

eliot spitzer, when i'm with him, i like him, i see the charm, i understand why people like him.ently the guy who ran against him, stringer, did a really good job of saying, hey, you were against sex trafficking, the toughest guy in the world against sex trafficking is and now you hire sex workers for you. >> this is directly analogous to david vitter, who survived the same thing, a prostitution scandal. and eliot spitzer is a brilliant guy, probably no more qualified than the job he was going for, but there was a certain amount of, i don't know if you want to call it arrogance, a certain amount of lack of contrition, an in-your-face quality to him. and in vitter's case, he finished state. >> i can't explain vitter. maybe it's new orleans, or louisiana. joy, thanks for being on. and steve mcmahon, thanks. we'll be right back after this. i dbefore i dosearch any projects on my home. i love my contractor, and i am so thankful to angie's list for bringing us together. find out why more than two million members count on angie's list. angie's list -- reviews you can trust. >>> let me

that was the eliot spitzer contest. the new york city comptroller race. you put an ad in the independent. it was a full-page ad. you said are you going to let eliot spitzer buy your vote the same way he bought young prostitutes' bodies? jerry della femina. >> i was really feeling no one was taking him on. he was running around saying he was going to be the sheriff of wall street. you know, i think when he was here, he did more harm than good. i thought that he was going to get by with just, you know, that same very slick commercials. he was buying -- literally buying votes with those commercials. i wanted to do something or say something that stopped it. interestingly enough, i thought that many more people would pick up on it. but i think that they were still a little nervous about him. he lost. it's good for everyone. >> people are afraid to go up against him. >> yeah. he's tough. you know, a combination of him and also having dibasio now as our next mayor, maybe. >> yep. what do you think about dibasio? >> he frighte

on me. >> reporter: the other politician embroiled in a sex scandal, former new york governor eliot spitzeroach. less drama, more results. spitzer resigned after his klein the number 9 stint with a prostitute in 2008. he fell short in his bid for new york city comptroller but he came close. quite the opposite outcome for weiner who constantly had to face critics on the trail. >> you're my judge? what rabbi taught you that. >> reporter: weiner lost by a large margin. his campaign came to an end with an uninvited guest chasing him to his concession speech. out the door, just like his campaign, weiner's exit, unlike any other in politics. so what's next for anthony weiner? folks, that's the big mystery this morning. and kate and chris, we're all wondering why? i wonder if it was the buildup of the day, sydney leathers chasing him to his hq, going to his primary party, crashing it and trying to confront him? we talked to her. she said i'm just here for the media attention. >> one thing we do know is the voters have finally spoken, which is one thing we've been waiting to hear this entire time w

but anthony weiner and eliot spitzer were both knocked out.nd you've done a lot of polling on this, i know, but i want to know what pushed bill deblasio to the front? because he campaigned on class warfare, beat up on wall street, beat up on the banks and he also brought race into the campaign. you've done the polls and what put him on top. >> 89% of new yorkers didn't find the city to be affordable right now so there's a basis to build from. only a third think the mayor can make a difference about that, but that's a separate question, you know, the issue of term limits and michael bloomberg getting a third term extension. and the fact that three quarters of democrats want to move in a new direction, turn the page. he tapped into the change message as well. so, and the dante effect, new yorkers saw with his son and-- >> his wife is black, mixed race son. put the son in the ads and his stock, so to speak, went up at that point. >> absolutely. stuart: look, we've got viewers all over the country and all over the world and they want to know, is t

uh-huh. >> i think eliot spitzer. 48.4.rol room. so that's too close to call. that's for sure. >> yeah, that has been a tossup for a while. early polls showed spitzer who has better name recognition with a huge lead. as soon as stringer got his ad up. he really, really closed the gap. i think you see a sp spitzer has name recognition. >> looking good in the poll from the outset. for what i thought was a perfectly reasonable reason. he may very well be the most qualified candidate for that office in the history of new york city. and his problem as the a candidate is his personal history and the reason he had to resign his governorship. what, what has been the die naming name inameynamic of the race? >> well i think elliott spiiot has a reputation as a wall street crusader. what stringer has is the support of the establishment in new york city. he has gotten all of the endorsement in the race. spitzer has been out of the game a while. and nowhere on the field. in a race where there are 3 million registered democrats, 500,000

weiner finished a distant fifth in his race for mayor and eliot spitzer lost his bid for city co comptroller. >>> voters in colorado went to the polls to throw two lawmakers out of office. this morning those votes have succeeded. senate president john morse and senator angela gerren have been recalled. the two democrats provided crucial support for a package of state laws strengthening gun control. the outcome will not affect those measures or their enforcement. it also does not change control of the general assembly. >>> google's street view vehicles can collect a lot more data than just pictures. a judge has ordered had they stop doing it. the internet giant had vehicles collect e-mails, passwords and other internet data while photographing neighborhoods. after the loss in court, google agreed to stop collecting the data, but still claims what it did there was not illegal. >>> flood waters in arizona have some residents maneuvering through treacherous floodwaters using canoes. more storming is predicted throughout the day today. bill karins, whenever you see canoes like that -- >> how abou
