if he'd get michigan, then he'd be over 270. trump path back to the white house, he'll have to win back one of those three midwest states, and michigan could end up being his best shot at it. you take a look at those primary results this week, trump more than 40 points ahead of nikki haley. he does win every county in the state. you do see a quarter of the vote not going to trump. remember, open primary in michigan, democrats could vote, republicans could vote in the republican primary, some evidence that there's a fair number of democrats and independents who have been come in just because they want to vote against donald trump. but if you looked inside these counties, you would see donald trump's biggest vulnerability, and his softest support is in the suburbs with high concentrations of high voters with college degrees, affluent white voters and a place like oakland county just north of michigan and gigantic white collar suburban county and joe biden had carried this by almost 15 points by 2020. trump did win it in his primar

what he was doing in michigan in 2021, independence clearly in michigan as part of his victory there in 2020, according to the exit polls and here in our he is way underwater with independence. i don't know >> i'm not sure. okay the independent breakdown, if we do, we'll put it up >> and the other you mentioned young voters. the other thing i would take is female voters in michigan, in pennsylvania on there in pennsylvania, you see, he's performing as you would expect, biden to form with women. it's an advantage category for him, not so in michigan, there almost evenly divided among women, between the two candidates that obviously if they're evenly divided among women, that's gonna be a real problem across the board for joe biden? yeah, karen 20 what's up with that >> so couple of things i would say. one, just looking at the averages of a couple of in other posts, the margin is about 3%. so again, this is going to continue to go up and down, but couple of things i would say, number one, let's remember that in michigan, we have a strong governor, a strong democratic party, and not jus

when you look at michigan michigan, again, look at these same demographics, places. biden is minus ten to trump among independents. well, back in the 2020 exits, biden won independence in michigan by six women. it's roughly even here given the margin of error, i would call that three-point split 48, 40 if i have roughly even split among women between trump and biden. biden won women in pennsylvania by 14 percentage points in 2020 and the exit. so there is clearly pieces of the biden coalition in michigan that are not yet sort of returning to the norm of where they were in 2020 and what about the continuing question about a third party david >> kate, i find this fascinating look here that just horse is again, among registered voters were not in the season of looking at likely voters just yet. but you see here in pennsylvania trump gets 40% to biden's 38% to rfk junior, 16% to cornell's 4%. the first thing i want to just note here, because i think this is the biggest factor of the third party support at this moment. it lowers trump's when number right? he's winning tha

by representative rashid tohli, who represents the city of detroit and represents they are michigan . it happened in the house of representatives. a very strong movement was formed in less than a month . in minnesota, massachusetts, virginia, this process continued, and yes, a significant number of so-called white votes, not voting for biden, and voting in protest . the point and impact of the votes that happened in michigan, those 11,000 votes, we were the victors, we saw that mrs. kamel hadith, mr. biden's deputy , demanded an immediate ceasefire for the first time, and this is an important point, and mr. biden and his campaign consultants know this. just as mr. rocana, the representative of california who works in the biden campaign , traveled to this state before the michigan election and met with muslim leaders and arabs. after that meeting, in the articles and interviews they had, they clearly said that if mr. biden wants to win michigan in the 2024 presidential election, he should end this war and give importance to the votes of the muslim arabs, and this is an important issu

fits very well with my district, my district right now entire southern border of michigan. i'm there to keep out all buckeyes. [l >> and if you're a buckeye tough. you can always move across the line and be where the national champion undefeated wolverines. i have to use it while i can and then the hoosiers. i'm not that hat about keeping hoosiers but notre dame has been a challenge because i was raised by a father who was a big ten guy, i was raised on the south side of chicago and he said, tim, it's okay i'm a christian you're a christian, it's okay to hate two things. what's that dad, new york yankees and■ir1 notre dame. a lot of people loving notre dame, his souther p have had to acquiesce to the fact there's notre dame paraphernalia in their about bue growing with the task. i can hard i will say it i'm so down.d to my house a week and i didn't have broadband living out in the country. so i have a quick primmer into the expansive nature and ability of what broadband can bring. society in general and, of course, being able to talk to industry as well as connected with th

popularity in the state of michigan recentl ?larity in the state of michigan recentl ? ~ , ., recently? absolutely. i would say that what we _ recently? absolutely. i would say that what we are _ recently? absolutely. i would say that what we are watching - recently? absolutely. i would say that what we are watching now i recently? absolutely. i would say that what we are watching now is | that what we are watching now is quite frankly something that is very common among sitting presidents. those presidents are not really challenged when it comes to the primaries. that extends to both parties. outside of thatjoe biden knows these are competitive races, he knows that come november there are battleground states in michigan is one of them. it's seen as a purple state, not red or blue. you have to fight for every single vote. michigan also has the largest proportion of muslim americans and palestinian americans and it also has a large portion of black voters and younger voters who quite frankly are very upset at what they are seeing

i didn't have bro tipton, michigan. in fact, the suburbs of tipton, michigan.t's okay, most people don't know where that's at either. but i love, leeing out in the country but, man, if i had not if had broadband for all of the zooms meetings that we had, committee meetings, markups online from my house, it wouldn't have funked. so i got a quick primer into the expansive nature and ability of what broadband can bring to and, of course,, now being able to talk with myarmers also, so it's very diverse. but energy and communication are major components of my district. so i'm delighted at what you do in all of the industry and the impact that you make, and it's only going to■Ñ expand. when i talk to those farmers and i get irritated with them, say don't use that expression i'm ft no dumb farmers out there. if you're going to make it in the agriculture community today and having to have capabilities that come from satellite, the internet, broadband capabilities for your farms, for your combine, for your tractors in doing the type ofming that you do today, it's import

, but they could get 11 thousand votes, so it is important that the state michigan and the cities ofoit have the largest population of muslims in america, and the voters of these two cities voted in protest in michigan and this movement to the leader. and the support of representative rashid tlieber, who represents the city of detroit and represents michigan , happened in the house of representatives. a very strong movement was formed in less than a month, and we saw that yesterday in other states, that is, in egypt, states like utah, massachusetts, virginia. it continued, and yes, it is significant from the so-called white vote , not voting for biden, and voting in protest the point is to travel to this state before the michigan elections and have a meeting with muslim and arab leaders after that. the meeting in the article and the interviews that they have said clearly that if mr. biden wants to win michigan in the 2024 presidential election, he should end this war and give importance to the votes of the muslim arabs and this is an important issue because michigan is one it is one

your prediction on michigan in 2024?rong support in michigan right now and i believe the auto workers are with him and once you have the autoworker withs him and democrats stepping out, saying that democrats have abandoned the black community there and trump will come in and see strong support with people saying we want those policies that he had in 2016 and we want to see a trump presidency and we want to feel better about our finances and we know it. will: we have more after the break. ♪ she runs and plays like a puppy again. his #2s are perfect! he's a brand new dog, all in less than a year. when people switch their dog's food from kibble to the farmer's dog, they often say that it feels like magic. but there's no magic involved.

not just in michigan but across the country. their voices matter.ecause of the political implications, because they are americans who have a connection to that part of the world and they are seeing people in their own families suffer unconscionable treatment by the prosecution. it is not to say israel doesn't have the right to defend itself. one of the things we have to do is not get ourselves in a position where we have to choose which lives are more precious than the other. all lives are precious. but when we see 30,000 dead in gaza, we see the possibility of large-scale malnutrition and the israeli government blocking critical aid to those people, the u.s. can't be neutral on that question. and the way we address it is first by making sure we have an open and ongoing conversation with the arab and muslim community in this country, the way i do every week. >> but don't you get to meet the president at the table when he is in the backyard? >> it is not just the president but the people around the president. the president for sure. >> to your point,

, 50%, to 42% over biden in michigan. and i want to show you here if i add the third party candidates in like robert kennedy jr. and cornell west, look what happens here. kennedy is getting 18% of michigan, 16% in pennsylvania. now, we'll see and track that throughout the rest of this election season to see if he can hold onto that support. but what we see underneath them is that he's kinda pulling from both parties. but what's critical? to see here is that the third-party candidates really lower the wind number needed for donald trump in these states, he hits 40% and that would be enough. i mean, pennsylvania's within the margin of error, but that would be enough to be numerically on top just 40%. that's really what the third party factor is something to watch out for this michael >> let's take a closer look. david, at michigan, where some of president biden's issues are there. >> yeah. so why is michigan behaving differently? well, one thing i wanted to show you here, take a look here we ask people to recall their vote

let's also get to michigan. former president trump already won the primary contest in the state and nbc news is projecting heat will sweep the caucuses. nearly a third of gop primary voters voted against him. what will actually be on display is disunity inside the state republican party where the rivalry between its thought right former leader and more established friendly replacement has taken place. we heard but lot about the uncommitted vote at michigan on the democratic side but what do you make of this infighting amongst republicans in this battleground state for nevada? >> i think that that republican party is doing everything it can to aid the democrats and joe biden in michigan, in particular. most of the coverage last tuesday, out of michigan, i think, got it wrong. the uncommitted vote and that democratic primary was right within the historic norms. that's not to say that it joe biden doesn't have issues with his progressive base, especially with gen z voters. but those are fixable. what thought number

the arab minority should wake up, especially in the state of michigan.they are in voted for biden in the last election and saw where biden led them? biden spent billions on the war in ukraine and gaza, which greatly affected the american economy. activists of the listen to michigan campaign held an event similar to a candidate's campaign event on election night , where they gave impressive speeches asking joe biden. stop supporting what they called genocide in which the lives of innocent people are taken with american weapons. activists emphasized that refusing to vote for biden is a warning to him and that it is not necessary to have relations with the candidate democrats are completely cut off. if biden really stops the killing and ends the blockade of gaza , we might have a conversation to see how we should interact with him. arab and muslim minority. next november, he may take the second term of the presidency out of his hands. the british prime minister wants to deal more severely with the anti- zion protests. protests against the war in gaza take s

and should win michigan. problem is that young people people on the progressive left, people of color, especially arab americans. you've got 300,000 michiganders who are muslim voters registered muslim voters or error voters were arab speaking voters from north africa the chance of a lot of those people staying home because they're seeing people that they know, people that look like them that are them being killed why are you risking losing those voters? why are you listening to young people? young people >> he really hates war of the most young people because they're the ones sent to war. >> so whenever >> they hear that we're doing saber rattling again, invading countries, or in this case funding. funding this, this war, abby could end tomorrow simply by the united states pulling the plug on the war machine. not, not pulling the plug on supporting israel, protecting anybody who's being slaughtered in israel all nobody wants that. everybody supports our jewish brothers and sisters and their right to life. >>

in michigan former president trump got more than 758,000 votes.ieve the number was 632,000 plus. so even with the 101 plus thousand votes committed he still would have been behind trump. >> yeah, that's an interesting point you make there. michigan, that is car city usa. the industry in the state. american made cars. for joe biden to play indicate his leftist base by going all in on the electric car policy. we know in michigan when obama tried to do that. the chevy bolt. they had to stop. no one was buying them and it was a horrible plan. people in michigan are very familiar with the impact of these left policies. to go along with the 100,000 voters who sat on the sidelines in this razor-thin state won by a razor-thin margin he is a catch 22. they sat on the sidelines. they don't like his policy on israel. if he turns his back on israel he loses another swath of voters. the democratic party today is in a state of peril. joe biden is trying to play indicate the far left base at the expense of the traditional democrat voters. >> harris: i don't thin

i'm hearing about uncommitted voters in michigan. president has work to do there, certainly. >> also tweeted trump will beat biden unless he chooses to listen to the working class of the country and change course and refer to the uncommitted turnout in michigan, guys, back to you. >> carley: ashley strohmier, thank you. as we mentioned, tomorrow is super tuesday and a total of 874 delegates up for grabs as voters in these 15 states plus american head to the polls to cast their votes in the 2024 presidential primary. nikki haley headed to the first day of the first primary victory after taking washington, d.c., last night. the g.o.p. delegate count now looks like this, 244 president trump, 44 nikki haley but despite trump's massive lead, nikki haley says she's in the race for the long haul and will not support the nominee if she loses. >> who are no longer bound by that pledge? >> no, i will make what decision i want to make, but that is not what i'm thinking about. while you all are thinking about that, looking at the fact we had tho

so in michigan, arizona, pennsylvania, let's clear the air. let's cover the air so that on election night, we have a great deal of confidence in the electoral system and the people know when they go to the polls, their votes actually count and they're being counted squarely and fairly. so i think the more, the better level the playing field right now, let's make sure people have confidence in their election system and no van and i've discussed, as we've discussed this altogether, i think i'd love to see on election night a winner declared, right? so the we know who wins on election night, and that confidence is rebuilt in the american electorate that our elections are fair and square. >> it. david david, i know you approach this from a very sober point of view. we've talked about this and covered this ever since 2020, but it's not that people think the election isn't fair because there was legitimate the religious, legitimate issues in michigan or georgia, or in arizona, it's only because trump and his allies repeated lies about it. none of th
