which, again, brings us back to pittsburgh and the pittsburgh declaration that i hope we put on your reading list for this week. there were five authors of it. one of them was johan must, as you would expect, but the other was albert parsons. he had come the full way by 1883, and he represented an american anarchist. and, it was probably to his influence that the declaration and other declarations tried to root anarchism not just in europe, as a european import, but as american. the declaration of independence, for example, were trying to broaden the base of anarchism by making it an american thing. here are the key beliefs of anarchists in 1883-1886, and you will find them in readings too. that revolution was necessary. society could not evil. it would take a revolution to have change. -- society could not evolve. it would take a revolution to have change. but the wording was very carefully skewed so that it was not necessarily a violent revolution. anarchists were aware of the connection with violence, so the violence is alighted, but the revolution is central. opposition to the st

voters in pittsburgh are casting their ballots for the u.s. house seat.a tight race with connor lamb and rick saccone. many political observers are looking at this as a bellwether a sign for the mid-terms to come. let's bring in the former republican gore, tom corber. great to see you. talk about the tightening of this race. my social media might inform us, people are wondering who is the republican? should they be confused? >> well, a lot of confusion going on out here, harris. thanks for having me on. some of the confusion is people don't know that you have to be living in the 18th congressional district to vote. from what i'm hearing, we have people going to the polling places in the 17th district and other places and not getting a chance to vote. so we start with confusion. it's an interesting race. i think it's going to be an unset win for representative saccone. people say why? and this is a 50-plus democratic district. yes, president trump won the district but that was in a different time. president trump enjoyed the support of labor. our congressm

even close to pittsburgh. it's nothing like what you think of when you think of the pittsburgh pirates. >> steve kornacki has that look in his eye. >> i think we've got it answered as clearly as we can be. we just heard it's going to take a few hours to get the absentee ballots here in washington county counted. we're looking at 1195 that were requested. the question here is how many of these are going to be for saccone? is it going to help him eat into this lead at all? here's what we know from the past. remember we were saying we think allegheny county tends to favor republican votes. the county is not sure how many of these were absentee versus outstanding precinct votes. i think it's probably consistent with us that a lot of these are absentee ballots. here's what we know. on election day it was 63% trump, give or take, in the county. in the absentee, it went down to 56. we said trump did seven points worse in the man as a tee is what it's going to be in washington. this thing we were playing out would the

this is suburban right outside pittsburgh. this really is kind of the tale of two districts.s the numbers come in tonight, you expect conor lamb to do well in allegheny. the question is how well does he do and then you expect saccone to clean up in the rest of the district. the question for him is how well does he do there. mainly the precincts that are in and this is what we're getting kind of a scattering of precincts but mainly those are concentrated in allegheny county in lamb area. what i can tell you, we're just scanning these trying to get little clues. we knew there would be movement. you mentioned trump won this district by 20 points. how much movement are we seeing in these precincts from where trump fared? how trump fared in 2016. looking at it, i can tell you basically this. the closer saccone comes in these allegheny precincts to doing 10 points worse than trump, that's bad news for saccone. the numbers we're seeing, 6, 10, 10, 6, 8, 12, 9, 3. that sort of is what we're getting. added together early on, it's right on that cusp of what the democrats want to be see

pittsburgh does not look to embrace steel anymore. pittsburgh is going in another direction. do you think you would have been in the steel industry longer if there were terrorists back when you were working and would it have helped you keep your job? i don't think so. it was in the 1970's. technology, the digital age was starting to develop and people in pittsburgh were trying to embrace the technology. they were looking for better ways to do things. pittsburgh,y in everything was going away from the steel mill. there was a big thing about the labor unions back then. it was a big thing about fossil environment. pittsburgh wanted to get away from that. they have done an excellent job doing that. host: are you glad you work in the steel industry -- you worked in the steel industry? it was a good job of the time. it was good money. , as i hard work, but thing back of it, it was bad for the environment. i remember coming out of work metal flakes all over your car from the stacks where they were making the steel. it was a dirty job, a hard job. host: if you had a chance to talk ab

walt is in pittsburgh, pennsylvania. good morning. all, a pox onof both offices. lobbying is in the constitution but it should be done in front of the full body of the congress and senate and there should be no money given. -- other thing is we need to hire people who are independent to study this before it happens. the other thing is chuck schumer has a $300 million title from new jersey to new york. build one in pittsburgh was supposed to be $300 million. nobody's going to watch this. there's going to be more kickbacks from schumer. just like republicans. i'm not going to say it's all democrats. it's worse when you hear them talk. that's the real problem in this country. we've got to get rid of these lobbyists and there got to do it in front of the full house. constitution founders didn't plan on people getting money for being in office like this. that's basically my point. say moneytainly they is the mother's milk of politics. there is a lot of campaign cash going on and it's one of the issues that we have tried to follow theey
