joining me now from raleigh is leanne caldwell. have talked to voters who have waited in long lines to vote which is fwhad peopbad tha have to do that, but they are exercising their duty in american democracy. what have you been hearing from them? >> reporter: ali, i want to update your numbers for a second. the north carolina board of elections just minutes ago put out new numbers on totals. 16% or 17% of registered voters in the state have already voted. absentee ballots you can put in by mail and voting early has been going on for the first weekend. i'm outside the polling place in durham. the line goes down the street and stretches up to here and you see where the entrance finally is. voter enthusiasm seems to be extremely high. we also think of long lines as a form of voter suppression. in durham county, it has 14 places to go and vote today. you don't have to live in the district. you can vote anywhere. neighboring wake county where raleigh is has 20 places open. people are enthusiastic wanting to vote. that is what they have

those are your supporters, the ones you want to write before they ride it downtown raleigh. that's what we're dealing with right now. that is why the vast majority, almost every single law enforcement organization in north carolina has endorsed dan forest because they know the governor does not support law enforcement and he didn't did 6 years as attorney general either. >> thank you. next question has to do with medicaid and teacher pay as we've seen in the last few years, the republican legislature, the democratic governor have a long-running battle over this but what it is resulted in his teachers that getting pay raises and on the other side the medicaid not be expanded to people who would otherwise qualify for in the state. is there a way we can do that? what do we have to do to serve both groups? >> all we need is a new governor. i will work with the general assembly. i won't work against him. we have given teacher pay raises every therapy until governor cooper became governor and started vetoing every single pay raise. we were able to pass some intense negative badges

is inthe battleground is the circles immediately around the major metropolitan areas, charlotte, raleigh, and even the ing counties a little bit outside of the suburbs that are changing as the population changes. that is why you are seeing when the candidates or surrogates come to north carolina, the president is going to rural areas. joe biden and his surrogates are going to urban and suburban areas. host: joe biden is traveling to the state over the weekend. supporting the biden ticket, go ahead. caller: good morning, greta. good morning, mr. mclennan. you.is my poll for i voted for mr. biden. i took my ballot to the absentee board of elections. i am glad it is done. well iot get through, got through, but i did not get to speak to mr. boyum. that it kills say me to listen to these republican roting like tape recorders donald trump talking about how black people are doing so much better under donald trump when it absolutely is not true. what is surreal about it is these are the very people whose usual opinions concerning black people is that we are lazy, do not work, we live on welfare

those are my supporters, closer your supporters, derided in the downtown raleigh when you had that mask dangling around your ear and not your face, that's what we are dealing with right now. that's why the vast majority, almost every single law enforcement organization in north carolina is endorsed force because they know the government doesn't support law enforcement didn't as attorney general either. >> medicaid and teacher pay as we have seen in the last few years, the democrat guy and long running battle but what it is resulting in his teachers not getting pay raises and on the other side, the medicaid not being expanded to people who would otherwise qualify what in the state. is there a way to do this? what we have to do to serve both groups? >> we just need a new governor. given teacher pay raises every single rate year until governor cooper became governor and vetoed every pay raise. we were able to pass them but he keeps be killing them. once i want better pay but zero is not better than something. if given the 20% increases. we increases teacher pay every year end we will keep

windows boarded up in downtown raleigh. there is concern with that. the president has gone after our democratic governor for shutting down north carolina for so long. those are all legitimate concerns. i think social media and talking points from both sides has put people in this camp or that camp. both sides go into those camps, and they do not want to hear from the other side. host: how many people do you estimate are undecided in the state of north carolina? guest: [laughter] i cannot imagine there are very many. the polls show there are enough percentage points that it will sway this election. interesting is not those that are truly undecided between joe biden, perhaps those that are deciding do i skip that race? do i go to a third party or not vote at all? we are atrue that 0.7, those voters could make a huge difference if they choose not to vote for one candidate or the other. it is hard to imagine that there are true undecided voters. at davidson,te north carolina, they have a handful that are out there. host: welcome to the conversation. you a

i'm in cary, north carolina, a suburb of raleigh. i just talked to the chief election judge she said they just topped the number of voters they had yesterday today, and there is still some time left i spoke to a lot of voters about why they decided to come out and vote early, even some standing in line in the rain. here's what they had to say. >> i remember a time when you couldn't vote early. so this is one of the finest hours. you can do it. get in there, cast your vote. >> for me, there is justg also. >> reporter: and north carolina something about coming in person and voting as long as i'm physically able, i want to be able to do that, and just to really experience the other people out here voting also >> and shepard is a political battleground most say he can't win the presidency unless he wins the republic so republicans can keep control of the senate. both sides are contesting it both sides think they can win, and it's evident in their visits here the president was here yesterday. vice president pence was here today. and joe b

raleigh, you should have seen the one that got away, three feet long. >> if you ask eisenhower like he's dedicated the rest of his life to the service of america instead of retiring to take it easy on his little farm in gettysburg, you will point to a picture of this baby. a chip off the old block. >> i want my grandson and yours to grow up in a free america. >> he is proud of his grandchildren. there are three of them now. you can tell that eisenhower believes that our real first mind offense is family, and old-fashioned and well understood american idea. and mired as well in the rest of the world, especially in france. >> france was the first nation to hail eisenhower his crusade in europe. the french love liberty. under hitler, they tasted slavery. to frenchman, eisenhower is a liberator. this ally likes ike to. and across the english channel, that hitler could not cross, people of battered london who would never yield to the blitz, surrendered with a cheer to ike. >> to every londoner, whether he's taken a soldier of mine into his home, i say you always have my profound gratitude. to

you don't have to get the legislators to raleigh. we have a citizen legislator so here.they're not a full-time congress. very important to act quickly in emergency situations. if we're under a terrorist attack or what have you. we need to delegate some emergency authorities. but that can't be an open-ended ability for the governor and only the governor to broadly regulate it. in the breath of authority here. cooper is not unique in this among governors around the country although he is one of the more extreme of using emergency power. the breadth of this is basically telling people you can't open your business. you can't leave your home in a hurricane. this is the sort of power that we want to get the governor. there is a long-standing history of certain types of quarantines. i go through some of this and epilogue of my book talking about the situation. george washington moved the cabin at a philadelphia. they cut yellow fever and baltimore new york. and people said they can't come here. it was scary garrett carried by mosquitoes not people. they did not know exactly wha

raleigh-durham, medical workers, college educated women. the suburbs around charlotte as well. suburbs around winston-salem. look to the urban areas. they must get african-american turnout. but in joe biden is going to turn north carolina back from red to blue, it will be because of his support in the suburbs. >> john king, thank you so much. let's look in on the state of the race right now. back with me, nathan gonzales and sabrina saddiqi. nathan, north carolina isn't usually in play like this for the democrats. we heard john king's explanation. but why is this time different? >> well, i think this time, you know, we have the president being the incumbent which san overall big picture thing but also this is a critical part of the electoral college. you also have a very competitive united states senate race between republican senator thom tillis and the democratic nominee cal cunningham. what i also think is interesting, and it tells a larger story, is i believe the congressman richard hudson, the republican, is at the president's rally today. now four years ago, president tru

. >> our correspondent diane gallagher joins us in raleigh this morning. remarkable the early turn out there, diane. >> reporter: not just when you look at it but look at it compared to 2016. more than 85% of the total votes that were cast in 2016 have already been cast here in north carolina. and we still have one full day of early voting to go, that's today. and tomorrow the last day of early voting until 3:00 p.m. that's the way the overwhelming majority of people in north carolina have chosen to vote. this early, in-person voting, according to state data. roughly 80% of people who requested their absentee ballots by mail have already returned them, either successfully returning their mail-in ballot or by spoiling that ballot and choosing to vote early in person instead. tomorrow is the last day of early voting. it ends at 3:00 p.m. though. so officials in north carolina have said, go ahead if you plan to vote early in person do it today. campaigns, this is a place that president trump has said he needs to win. he won in 2016, and his campaign has place

raleigh up here. he's going to land in charlotte, mclinberg county. romney was at 56.ore votes in a state that was decided by 77,000. everything matters. the advanced vote in north carolina is impressive. that's 2012. that's 2016. this is 2020. as of today, chris, you have 600,000 ballots returned. 1.5 million people voting in person. you're already at 20% of the advanced turnout in north carolina. it's critical. the president won it by 3.5 points. how do you see this as of today, chris? >> it's a good pick with gadsden county. charlotte suburbs. the deal for the trump campaign, they're not doing anything near what they need to do in the suburbs, right? affluent voters have turned open trump. but if they can juice the turn outin lower income areas and rural areas, gadsden county is going away from charlotte, if they can get higher turnout there and higher turnout with white working families, that's what the trump campaign is counting on in north carolina. on both sides of the state, east and west. if they want to juice turnout, the people whose families voted for jesse
