but last time around, mick mulvaney with a 20-point win. as the republicans have gone 4 for 4 in the special elections, we've seen it in montana, 15.8%. down to plus 5.6%. we saw it in kansas where more than a 30-point victory for the republicans last time around last year down to 6.2% in the special election. so what does it mean? we have to look at the balance of power heading into the mid-term elections next year and know that the democrats certainly have ground to make up. they have to start turning these close but no cigar races into actual victories. they don't have to win them all. the magic number is 218. so for the democrats to flip that over and get control of the house, they need to net a total of 24 seats next year. neil, back to you. >> neil: thanks, connell. so closeness of these elections, particularly some of these special events and the recent ones by a couple points, is that a message to republicans? that they shouldn't get too ahead of themselves here? aaron mcpike with us here. what is the sense? relief on the part, i gu

the other lower profile race tomorrow is for mick mulvaney's old seek in south carolina. georgia district, trump won it less than two points. trump won the south carolina district by 18 points. so, democrats are sort of quietly hopeful that they might turn out a win there or at least a good run there. because they love their candidate there in particular. but democratic party nationwide spent almost no money in south carolina to help and on paper it looks like it would be very, very, very hard for the democrats to flip. both of the special elections tomorrow in georgia and south carolina, the polls will open at 7:00 a.m. eastern time and close at 7:00 p.m. eastern time. which means by this time tomorrow we should be getting at least an early idea about how those races are shaping up and who might eke out a win but honestly i canceled the plans for tomorrow night and will be here late. ahh. where are mom and dad?

republican mick mulvaney held that seat comfortably for, i think, three terms. but before him, as recently as 2010, this seat in south carolina, house district 5 was held by a democrat named john separat sprat. it has been a sleeper race compared to what is really the marquee event tonight. this is the race in suburban atlanta, georgia's 6th district. this is the seat that was previously held by donald trump's controversial health secretary, tom price. now democrats in contrast to that south carolina race, democrats have thrown in as much as they could to try to help their democrat candidate in georgia 6, john of of. running against republican georgia former secretary of state karen handle. tonight is actually a run-offelection in georgia. there was a first round in april. 18 different candidates ran. jon ossoff won by such a margin that he almost won the seat right there that night. for want of 2 percentage points in april, he was ultimately forced into tonight's run-off by him and karen handle. it's interesting. read a lot of the nationwide commentary on this

and the reason i raise is this because mick mulvaney last week was quoted as saying several folks inouse have said they are interested in pushing a larger tax bill that would add to the deficit. that's mick mulvaney talking about deliberations here about what this ultimate package would look like. mark wasn't really sure yesterday about how to guide us through whether revenue neutrality is a key priority for the administration in tax reform or not. can you assist us? >> part of that is because there's a discussion ongoing with congress. director mulvaney, secretary mnuchin and others, gary cohn, are working with congress to talk about the plan going forward. so that's a conversation, as i mentioned at the top, the president's going to have a conversation in the next several minutes with house and senate leadership, and that will, i'm sure, be a topic they will discuss. >> so an increase in the deficit is something that the administration would find acceptable -- >> well, i think i would put it more like this, if there is a conversation that is going to go on with congress about how t

white house budget director mick mulvaney agrees that crop insurance is critical to farmers. but he says that's exactly why they don't need a big subsidy to get them to buy it. he also recently told lawmakers that the administration is helping small town america by rolling back regulations. >> farmers are farmers. they want to grow stuff and they want to be productive. they don't want to be paper pushers who trying to figure how the federal government is going to punish them for doing something that thought was right. >> reporter: still, some republicans are crying foul. senator pat roberts of kansas and represent michael conaway of texas oppose the cuts. they're the chairmen of the two agriculture committees in congress. they pledge to protect the farmers' safety net. the president's budget is just the starting point for negotiations. many farm states voted for trump. sawyer said he's hopeful that means the white house will listen to people like him. >> we knew there wasn't a perfect candidate. and honestly, there never really is. but what i believe in is smaller federal gov
