not all the mailers were sent. we're trying to stop the remaining mailers from being sent. and we have to get good information out there. and i think that's in partnership with media and local election officials. but i do want to highlight that the usps treating the nation as one election system is really important because maybe we should be thinking about the fact that all americans deserve the same voting access. you know, how is it that people in georgia have less access than people in colorado. these are fundamental rights. as a nation we should be looking towards vote by mail for all, early voting, same-day voter registration, and really adopting the accessible reforms we have in colorado so that all americans can have their voice heard pandemic or not in our elections. >> since this mailer did go out across the country, are other secretaries of states going to do the same and try to block it, or are you concerned this could be getting out to everyone? >> well, i have been in conversation with various secretaries of state that wanted to see our complaint and a lawsuit.

postal service from continuing to send this mailer. what about the mailer has you so concerned? >> thank you for having me on. that's exactly right, you know, as secretary of state it's my job to make sure that coloradans have the right voting information. and there were two things on the mailer that were inconsistent with voting in colorado. first, the mailer urged people to request a mail ballot. in colorado, we send a mail ballot to all registered voters and we actually asked voters to stop returning them through the mail eight days before election day, and instead take them to a drop box, and the mailer had inconsistent messaging on that also. >> many people have already received these mails, isn't the cat already out of the bag? what are you hoping will happen here? >> well, it's very unfortunate. we were alerted that the mailer would go out on friday. so we just learned about it, we filed a lawsuit friday night. we haven't had confirmation yet that every coloradan received the mailer. but i do think it's important, again, as secretary of state, just to make sure that color

in fact i know your top you're a top gossip columnist for the new york seem it in schrager norman mailer michael douglas jackie mason they're not c. list as you recount in the book but there were 400 people here and it died of that ok but the deeper question here is this facilitation of the rise of trump i mean the idea that some a great literary person like norman mailer would you say these people are all part of this facilitation let alone and i mean vanity fair magazine is mean the new choice me critical of the trump presidency you think of that sign you have. a 100 percent so. i don't know if you want to call it conspiracy but the agreement not to notice the parts of trump that we turned out to be so dangerous was widespread and included people like norman mailer included hillary clinton i mean trump invited her to its 3rd wedding and did she come yes she did with dell with bill clinton and you know she had said herself it seemed like a fun thing to do so yeah but there's a there's a way in which trial manages to drag people down to his level even. against their better instincts you

even 48% renewable is more than pg&e's 100% on this mailer. this was something that was never discussed with the public in many stakeholders meetings, we never knew this was coming. we need to find out whether it's true or not and we need to understand why we were not told by sfpuc staffer that this was going to go out. the understanding is that we would never let this happen. we would never let a price be higher than pg&e, especially with our lower being more expensive than their 100%. the fact this was not in the presentation is alarming. and the staff is not telling us things they don't want us to hear. they were going to make a deal to take their nuclear energy which the lafco needs to talk about in their next meeting. this is alarming that staff is not telling us things that it knows the public won't like. we should have been discussing this a lot sooner. the i.r.p. is another example of this. we could have been discussing it for weeks -- >> thank you for your comments. next speaker please. >> hi there, thanks for the opportunity. i would

the first-class mailers. the unions and others. and it is important that those people understand what is going on with the postal service and understand it on a regular basis. it is even more important now. there should not be a woman that comes up to me and says i'm going to push my 80-year-old mother to vote and we will stand in line. i don't care how long it will take. but i'm scared that the postal system will not deliver my ballot on election day. that is scary. i tell her -- you cannot risk that. people are scared. closer to the presidential election and continue to deal with the pandemic, how concerned are you about the continued reports that sorting machines are not being utilized to the maximum extent even in the face of admitted mr. dejoy? >> i listened to the last hearing. i remember you saying that you went into a facility and they were unplugged. me -- why can to you not just plug them back in and bring in a technician? and the american public would feel confident and feel more confident that their right to vote was no

. >>> colorado's officials suing the embattled postmaster general, louis dejoy over a mailer that she voters. >> this may have started as well-intentioned. but after we told them that it was wrong information, they should have at least delayed. >> i do believe that this mailer could have a suppressing effect. >> so the mailer was meant to inform you about voting by mail and advises you to request a vote by mail ballot at least 15 days before the election and return the ballot by seven days before. that does not align with election policies in colorado which are conducted entirely by mail. >>> in a statement usps says the card provides, quote, all purpose guidance on the use of the mail and not on state election rules. unquote, there. >>> you know what happened. nfl, we're in it. a lot of talk about covid, it's about social justice. there's one mom, though, who is either glued to an end zone of an empty stadium. fient out why. find out why. no matter where you live, where you live has never mattered more. for over 100 years, realtors® have brought local knowledge and deep expertise to

over the weekend, the postmaster general sent every home in america a mailer saying that voters who wish to vote by mail should request a mail-in ballot, confusing voters in nine states that automatically send a mail-in ballot. this could have been avoided if he allowed the governors of the states, as requested, to proofread the balance before -- proofread the mailer before it was sent out. company mayceo, his have received overpayments for services rendered. by dossier released today one of our witnesses shows that mr. dejoy continues to hold investments, assets command other interests in entities. mixes hismr. dejoy political and friendships with his position as pmg. for those who believe the postal service should not be the arm of any campaign, mr. dejoy continues to conceal his secret coordination with trump campaign associates, about which he has already provided misleading information and testimony before the congress. the chairwoman and i have repeatedly asked the postmaster general and board of governors about justifying the operational changes, clarify what mr. dejoy morevestmen

there's a mailer that the u.s. postal service sent out that says here's the postal service to remind people it's important. make a plan, vote ahead and you see it right there. look at it at first glance, that's nice. they are trying to get people to think about this, but a number of secretaries of states and attorneys general have been concerned about this because of the bullet points under dear postal customer, worried they might cause confusion because different states might do this different ways. >> that's exactly right. every state runs its own elections and has its own set of rules and to do one blanket mailer without even consulting with any secretaries of state about the content of that mailer was really a missed opportunity where they could have really helped us educate our voters. instead, they have created a little bit more confusion in many states and certainly didn't help advance the ball which is what we need to do right now in creating clarity for voters about the rules and options to vote in their p

griswold was seeking a temporary restraining order to stop the mailers. she tweeted hours ago, it has been granted. >>> we want to turn to a major development in the middle east. the announcement that israel, the tiny gulf nation of bahrain, will form a new partnership. this is the second time in less than a month that an arab gulf state has agreed to establish full diplomatic relations with israel. israel and the united arab emirates are set to sign their historic deal on tuesday in washington. but there are plenty of detractors to these new agreements. so let's bring in cnn's oren lieberman to talk more about it. he's in jerusalem to give us more perspective on how these came about and what are the questions surrounding them. >> reporter: well, you get a sense of why this is important to president donald trump and to some extent for prime minister benjamin netanyahu. these are major foreign policy accomplishments. as trump creates controversy at home, he can point to these successes overseas and say, look over there, and ignore the issues i'm having at

germany there is an existing ongoing type of ceremonial moral and it's held in the eastern town of the mailers where thousands of candles have been lit to make the death count. of bull now this is a project of one woman an accountant named gertrude shop who started lighting these candles back in march she had to take a break over the summer juice and fire danger well i spoke to mrs shop today and she told me that she is actually collecting candles again and she plans to start her tributes within a couple of weeks it's actually quite striking you know something else strikes me here which is you know given the fact that there's been so much noise made by protesters who are against the restrictions that have been put in place i imagine that having some sort of a memorial might send a political message well perhaps no coincidence that the president made this suggestion just a week after there was that major demonstration of coronavirus skeptics here in berlin which the president was also critical of he used the moment to remind us that the rate of infection is again increasing where now reaching a

other states considering similar legal action to stop the mailers in their states.s the information was inaccurate in some states. how much harder does that make the job of secretaries of state? >> well, this election is extremely challenging any way to try to make sure that voters are informed with accurate information. we created a campaign and initiative through our national association of secretaries of state called trusted info 2020 we're urging voters to go to their local and state election officials for accurate, up-to-date information and when every voter who gets mail gets something in the mail that isn't exactly right about how their state conducts elections like in the example of colorado, it does make our job a lot harder to be able to penetrate through the misinformation that's out there to make sure voters have correct information. so, again, at the end of the day, no matter what source you are getting your information from, go straight to the local or state election official to make sure that information is accurate that's the best we can do in trying

last thursday, we were told the postal service was planning to send a mailer with wrong information forretary of state, i am making sure we have correct information out. we filed the restraining order, we'll have that hearing tomorrow it underlines the amount of misinformation in elections. we need to be spreading good information, confusion, chaos leads to low voter turnout could suppress the vote itself >> yeah. colorado has been voting 100% by mail since 2013. colorado is very good at this. when you hear this kind of misinformation, and when you see what's been done by louis dejoy to the postal service, are you worried? i know you were in a meeting with him today did you address concerns, with dejoy at the head of the postal service, usps wouldn't be prepared this cycle to handle a colorado election? >> well, colorado has been voting by mail for several years. the colorado election model is very straightforward you register to vote, you're sent a ballot, you return it to one of hundreds of drop boxes through the mail or vote in person we have early voting we believe in accessible ele

forever in this matter fact my opponent says i don't wear a mask and as a matter of fact he sent out a mailer saying i don't wear a mask and by colin tierney. he's wrong about that. i've got my mask right here. camouflage to honor my 25 years of military service but americans have a right to be angry right now. attorneys come his party did the pandemic. politicians have profited on their knowledge of what was coming before citizens knew and other politicians delayed needed relief. and that i'm pointing directly at you senator warner because you voted against $105 million to reopen the schools, $258 billion for a second round of the protection through the paycheck protection plan and $31 billion for covid vaccine and $16 billion for testing. you can have it both ways can't say this is important and then vote against the needs of virginia citizens. moderator: senator warner, 30 seconds. warner: i'm proud of the record. i worked with republicans in the march covered really package produces significant investment in the history of our country $2.7 trillion. you're right it didn't vote for recent

colorado secretary of state told cnn today she's suspicious of these mailers bised on the president'srrative there will be widespread voting fraud tied to the election. what's going on here? how do you see it? >> look, so what the mailing said is that people need to have gotten their ballots in by 15 tas before election day. now, look, there's one of two things that can be going on. number one, it might just be sloppy or negligent from the u.s. postal service. their goal is to ensure that mail gets there on time. their goal isn't necessarily to protect elections. it might have been an act of just try ing ing to get people mail things in early. they sent that across colorado. now the problem, though, that i know it's a little confusing, but by setting that deadline, that is violating colorado law. now i know it's a little confusing. in contrast given the nation east history of voter suppression and given the conduct of the president's and the u.s. postal commissioners conduct around this election, the secretary of state had every right to sue the u.s. postal service to seek this tempor

postal service to immediately stop sending mailers that contain false information. and thenn talk k about mcconnell and the u.s. postal service. pennsylvavania, therere's s a ton of lilitigatin right now that the trump campaign is s litigating for example to try to p prevent vots from dropping off their r balane at drop boxes to avoid postal dedelays. there are disputes s over whethr hehe should d be able to s start counting m mailed ballots bebefe the election. right now you can't, which means it could take longer for the votes to count. republicans are refusing to allow boats to be counted earlier because they want uncertainty in terms of the processes. there'a lot of litigation in pennsylvania. ballots have not gone out there, either, and this is a pivotal swing state. in colorado, the post office it may list all 50 states, basically telling people if you request an absentetee ballot,, request it early. the problem in colorado, do o nt haveve to request an absentee ballllot. they automomatically sit ballols to all registered voters. they could turn around ballots

usps is sending millions of mailers to americans explaining how to successfully vote by mail in washington, i'm jessi turnure. >>well the weather outside we've been talking about that hasan that smoke a little bit better around the bay area today can see a little further, let's look at him to run back toward the golden gate bridge can't quite make it out but i think by the middle of this week we will get a change coming in the atmosphere and a much needed change finally a cold front moving its way in the pacific northwest bringing some rain up to seattle right now finally moving into portland bringing some rain there we're going to catch the trailing edge of the slight chance we could see some showers far northern california but more importantly to start to shift the win. now tomorrow not much of a ship so we're still talking about poor air quality around much of the bay area for tomorrow, although i think some improvement by the afternoon morsels we get into wednesday and thursday and friday this cold front. yeah, not moving very fast, you got high pressure out ahead of it you can see som

so he actually mailed a mailer, that tells the american people across the country, even though we have different -- every state has established their own plan that says request your mail-in ballot or absentee ballot at least 15 days before election day. we have states like colorado who mails everybody an absentee ballot an application, and we did it here in michigan. are you saying you having an absentee ballot mailed to you, but now go and call your state and request the ballot. it's confusing. given the circumstances surrounding mr. dejoy's actions, and just the conflict that we are seeing, the voter inteaggri commission, what should we be doing as members of congress to ensure these actions we continue to see will not continue to be a form of oppression as some are calling it, and others are seeing it as a way to interfere in the voting process. can you give me your educated opinion on what is happening? >> yes. thank you. i was the recipient of one of those and i know a lot about voting and yet i was confused as to why they were telling me this, because i live in california where e

he mailed a mailer telling the people across the country they have established their own plan at least 15 days before election day. but the absentee ballot application. and now you call your stay and request the ballot is confusing given the circumstances and the and what we are seeing what should we be doing as members of congress to ensure these actions are not the form of oppression others see it as a way to interfere in the process can you give me your educated opinion? >> yes. i was the recipient and i know a lot about voting and i was confused why they were telling you this and i live in california where everybody gets w the vote ballot it is so important that if mr. dejoy is not held accountable either through this discussion through the alleged behavior i believe there is sufficient evidence to see that but mr. dejoy rather than acting independently will do whatever it takes to appease the person who got him where he is in particular with the opposition to the mailing ballot to undermine the trust and confidence people have in our electoral system. we know when people believe t

but the funny thing is, chris, i am seeing mailers all across the country in wisconsin, north carolina, texas where the trump campaign is encouraging its own voters to vote absentee. so the trump campaign is not opposed to mail voting. they're opposed to mail votes when democrats use it and when it is easy to access. so there is an incredible double standard here where the trump campaign is doing everything they can to try to make it harder for certain people to vote by mail while whispering to their own people to vote by mail if you are uncomfortable voting in person. >> well, and we've seen this. this is not just a donald trump thing. this is the entire republican party and conservative movements have been doing this. you have tracked it for years. in texas, texas is a place where senior citizens can already vote by mail. their age is a reason they can request an absentee ballot. the largest county, harris county which includes houston wanted to be able to send an application to everyone and the texas state supreme court blocked it. this is like the fulcrum of harris county politics
