theaw a big story line that national republican senatorial ads ittee has pulled reserved for senator johnson, what kind of statement are they there? guest: well, they're trying to downplay, of course, that ad you played the johnson ad was paid by the art, i believe, -- not e of those offshoot organization, they have put some money in the race, put of so-called points for it. 800,000 pull out of the race, you have to say would be a big blow. the democrats have pulled out of race, but they are saying they have done it because they re ahead and, you know, the polls have shown they are ahead. i think what is interesting bout the two ads you showed, feingold had, he came out early strong against the transpacific partnership. he believes the trade deals hurt workers. johnson has not stated position as in manufacturing state. ou know, these deals don't go down as well as in other states. you know, an early move by feingold, he keeps with ng that issue and his ad, he drive its home, getting quintessential wisconsinites to talk about how allegedly are hurting american workers. it appears to b

he came off as very professional and very senatorial. i think that came across in the debate. >> what was his best moment on what issue? immigration and the things that he wanted to do. i think she was a little more vague when she talked about the border security. that was like almost an after thought. she was more concerned with dreamers than she was border security and he was more concerned with border security than just about anything else. >> that was his number one issue. the number one issue for people when they consider the issue of immigration in general here or immigration reform, if you want to put it that way. i think i security. once the border is secured, then we can deal with everything else. you can't have a flood of illegals coming in. >> her best moments and her strongest issue? >> i think when she actually asked him about the question about whether he took a pay cut when the government shutdown happened. i thought her question was great. i thought her follow-up responses were great. >> talking about the fact that she ac

they should do this as quickly as they can and they should focus on separating congressional and senatoriales from donald trump. the only place i disagree with sara is i'm more optimistic about our ability to see ticket-splitting in this campaign. the presidency is likely lost, but we don't have to lose the congress. >> i totally agree with that and -- we've seen our senate candidates running for ahead of donald trump in many states and hopefully he will continue to do that. the question is how many points can they realistically run ahead of trump? >> fair point. fair point. and the good news is these are really good senators and i'm a republican, i'm biased but kelly ayotte is an outstanding person, pat toomey in pennsylvania, we're not running a bunch of weak incumbents. these are strong incumbents with strong relationships with their state. they ought to be able to separate themselves from trump and it's not too late to start the process if they haven't done it already. >> let me ask you what happened with paul ryan, though. he got heckled in wisconsin when he made even a glancing illusi

i looked at his senatorial salary and his investment incomes. makes aboutthat he $343 and $.57 per hour based on a 40 hour workweek. and there was a bill in the senate to raise the minimum wage to $10 and $.10 per hour. and he voted no. versusd $.57 per hour $10 and $.10 per hour. minimum wageke the challenge. i tried to live on the minimum wage for a week. i did that a couple of years ago. i ate a plot of items off of the mcdonald's dollar menu. i ate a glut of bananas. they are pretty cheap. i did not make it. on the fifth day, my nephew told me he was in town for some special training before he went to afghanistan. i decided to take them out to dinner and i look the minimum wage --drunk the minimum -- broke the minimum wage challenge. many brothers and sisters and uncles may have a loved one who could not even afford to take their loved one out to dinner. that is the way minimum wage folks have to live. jerry: your rebuttal? sen. portman: when ted strickland was governor, he had a chance to speak on this. he supported the ohio minimum wage, w

you and i were talking about a couple of days ago the fact the democratic senatorial committee decided to pull out of florida. finished. he's dead even. it's the presidential race dragging rubio down and lifting mrphy up. i think it's going to be that presidential race that both of them have to ride as the wave to get their both advertising. that's not an issue. it's the presidential race that will drive which one wins. >> in congress republicans have a 60 seat margin. yet you have this hand wringing from republican leader across the nation fearing they can lose the majority. do you think that can in the releases out today. i don't trust polls for the first time in my life. we use the best and that's opinion savvy. that's been dead on. but i don't know the turnout modelful it's such an unusual year. we had so many crazy things happen. it's possible you could see a wave go one direction and the democrats take over both the senate and the house. it's also possible we could be wrong and donald trump could come sweeping into office and the republicans would be safe. i don't think the polls

(joe heck/(r) nevada senatorial candidate) "i am the only one who has worn a uniform and served overseas, commanded troops and has taken care of veterans. it comes down to who has real world experience on the issues that matter most to nevadans." the race between heck and cortez masto has been neck and neck. exclusive rasmussen poll show masto leading 43 to 41 but that is within the margin of error. u-s defense secretary ash carter is suspending "all efforts to collect reimbursement" from members of the california national guard. veterans and their families were asked to pay back enlistment bonuses improperly awarded 10 years ago. in a statement, carter said some soldiers knew -- or should have known-- they were ineligible for benefits they were claiming -- but many did can resolve the cases by next july. a california homeowner tired of living in a community terrorized by thieves.. takes matters into his own hands when he hears someone breaking into his car. the man says his neighbor called him to let him know there was a woman taking stuff from his car. he decided to do something about

senator rubio and representative murphy clashed at the final senatorial debate. >> economy was a hot topic with rubio focusing on the high cost of living. >> it is not just housing, it is things like access to the internet. you can't do homework if you don't have access, data plans are out of control. people's phoneerize catching fire, all-- phones are catching fire, all kinds of obama care premiums expected to rise 25% next year, patrick murphy had this response on that issue. >> no question the affordable care act was a huge step forward for our country but the focus now has to be on getting it right. working across the aisle to insure that we are fixing it. making sure we have more coverage for more people, that is more affordable. i believe we can do that but you got to show up to work. option to lower costs, especially in rural areas. >>> candidate for u.s. senate? >> a third party senate candidate crashed the party there, margaret flowers didn't meet the 15% polling requirement to be included, republican and democrat candidates stayed quiet as she was escorted out. >>> the late

. >> when the president of the united states criticizes a republican senatorial candidate as he did in florida, it might affect what is a very tight race. i will play it for you now. marco rubio said this was a dangerous con artist who spent a lifetime, a career sticking it to working people. now, that begs the question since we are in florida. why does marco rubio plan to vote for donald trump? and why is he supporting donald trump? >> there is a lot of things that hillary clinton said about bernie sanders but from a sitting president people pay attention? >> right, democrats are delighting to remind republicans of what they said about donald trump up to may 3rd. and what you are seeing now. is a worsening scenario for republicans trying to hold a majority in the senator and marco rub sxub portman in ohio are well positioned to hold on. you are seeing democrats pouring tons of cash in the race and they are licking their chops of a prospect of trying to wipe out republican senators that are in ten states that obama won twice. they are trying to mobilize people on the ground to vote for

very good news for donald trump, but we're looking at a stronger position for both congress and senatorialdidates for the republicans. i think probably some folks over at trump tower says this demonstrates donald trump's coat tails. >> well, definitely, and helping out in key states that we help in, like north carolina and nevada, he could be the difference especially in north carolina as we start to see his strength show through. what's really happening out there, though, lou, reality is setting in. the reality of the obamacare increases in premiums, the reality of the corruption by wikileaks. the reality of the deficits. the reality of open hemispheric borders, all of a sudden, the attention from this access hollywood tape starts to pale in comparison whenever mothers and fathers open bills for their health care premium and see it go up 22, 25, 28%, that's what's starting to happen is reality is settling in. lou: let's be clear, too. these people knew what they were doing. nancy pelosi, harry reid, president obama knew precisely what they were doing in 2009 and who this crushing force wo

senatorial debate. hello and thank you for joining us for the u.s. senate debate sponsored by abc 7. i am marked down from eyewitness news. it's the first time in the only time these candidates will be facing each other on the debate stage. let's bring them out right now to your applause. [applause] mark: we want to welcome the panelists. here it is an overview of the format. we will begin with a longform question. i will ask that question. the person to whom that is addressed will get 90 minutes to answer. they will think it one minute to respond. if the candidate so chooses, they will get 30 seconds after that. we will begin with a question will get aer and you chance to respond to that. then, we will begin the second half of the debate with a mix of rapidfire questions that the candidates will be able to answer plus the longform questions from the candidates as well. each candidate will have 90 questions at the end. we begin. yours is the highest profile race since california voters adopted the election system in 2010. you are both democrats. a lo

that is not preposterous that the presidential elections that direct the senatorial elections as a said ron earlier with all branches of government but it is designed so that people can pick so this election is our chance to weigh in on that. that we the people will hover referendum if you want garland you have to vote for the democratic senators and if you don't then you have to vote for donald trump and . i have one suggestion and i said listen this election is a referendum on the court. laugh and make its case. let his supporters make their case and the detractors say why he should not be on the court and use this as an opportunity to educate the american citizenry about the core and its future. if we do that and then we can confirm him and then want to or live along for another term. but to conclusion of a bite to see that immediately but i cannot tell you that. one final thing the issue that did come up not too long ago the ideological president the last year facing the senate nominated by the the party ronald reagan 1987 as conservative republican as a liberal democrat in face the

the republican national senatorial committee says it will kick in mid-october. johnson's campaign acknowledges the candidate is now -- that's why he's barn storming wisconsin. he's not getting help from the presidential campaign. in the primary, trump did poorly in the population centers of southeast wisconsin. johnson needs voter turnout there. mike tobin, fox news. >>> a federal judge is blocking an arkansas law preventing state funds from going to planned parenthood. the same judge had already issued an injunction in the case of benefits for three women. the latest ruling expands that protection to all patients. the state attorney general says the decision will enable planned parenthood to, quote, pad its bottom line at taxpayers' expen expense. >>> up next, did the u.s. make another major concession to iran in order to get those four hostages back? first to what our fox affiliates are covering tonight. in birmingham, alabama, a court removes justice roy moore from the bench. the panel ruled moore violated ethics by encouraging denying marriage licenses to ga

on the tip of the ticket makes a difference so kelly ayotte, who was -- is in a race to save her senatorialwants to hold on to her senate seat, takes part in this debate last night and is asked about trump being a role model. she has not endorsed him but she said she'll vote for him. listen to what she said. >> would you tell them to be like donald trump? would you point to him as a role model? >> i think that certainly there are many role models that we have and i believe he's -- can serve as president and so absolutely i would do that ch. >> then she had to release a statement quoting senator ayottement "i misspoke, while i hope our children aspire to be president, neither donald trump nor hillary clinton have set a good example and i wouldn't hold either of them as role models for my kids." >> my question is all of these down ballot folks are being asked this question and they have to deal with the ramifications politically. >> this is the tightrope we're seeing from republicans that are having to walk -- having to support their nominee or at least seem as if they're supporting their nom

polling averages, rubio's seat would be eighth which helps to explain why last monday the democratic senatorial campaign canceled the remainder of their ad. the florida sun sentinel which endorsed murphy strongly criticized the dscc. if rubio wins this by a percentage point or two and goes on to become a top presidential contender in 2020 dscc leaders will have no one to blame by themselves. joining me now is robert costa so there's some reporting that this has been the subject of very intense dispute behind the scenes. chuck schumer saying this money is better spent in other ad markets that are less expensive. others say you have a shot to take rubio out, the president might be interested in that. what's your sense of why this has become so hotly contested? >> it is because the airwaves in florida are expensive. they believe they can actually expand the map. a place like missouri with jason kandor doing well against roy blunt and in other states you have a real chance for democrats in the midwest and the rust belt to come back, they're reluctant to pour this money into a race in florida where

the national republican senatorial committee had these guys running more local sheriff type race from beginning, saw this might be an issue for them. portman is a puerto rico effect example. can it do well enough to last him these last three weeks. >> republicans frantically trying to save that senate majority. say trump's support the cratering. the big question is where is the line that senate candidates get washed out with him. new gop data shows trump down in double digits in new hampshire and pennsylvania. but those senators are also down in the polling by just a few points. in nevada trump trails by single digit by the republican candidate super. is ten points a line in which a trump loss would wipe out other republicans? republican strategists say it depends state by state. but they are trying to overcome a double digit trump deficit is an extraordinarily hard lift for other republicans on the statewide ballot. their advice to republican senate candidates spend the next three weeks running local and offering themselves as a check on a liberal clinton presidency. although they vi

one guy protesting that he didn't think he had a decent choice in senatorial candidates so he put hisame in who had passed a away. >> but gardner insists it intrudes on the sanctity of the voting booth. >> it is a special place. and a special place to be able to vote your conscience and not how someone else wants you to vote. there are no many things in life that people are equal. but the vote, it is equal. >> a decision onnen new hampshire's appeal of the selfie ban is expected in a few months after the election. in new york i'm eric shaw. fox news. >> all right good to know. you can take a selfie in a voting booth in new hampshire. kelly what gods's name are you doing in the background there. >> i'm photo bombing you. >> photo bombing? >> yeah. photo bombing you. my daughter's in the studio. all right. go ahead. >> there aren't many reasons for a kid to skip school. but this young man has one and proof to boot. he played hooky for a day to go to a book signing with none other than bruce springsteen. and when it was there turn, the boy had this typed noth happily explaining his answe

voting already under way and where control of the state, the prediction for the presidential and senatorial and gubernatorial races here have gone back and forth. so many of us have gone to other places in the country who know secretary clinton, who have served and worked with her and who can speak to her strength. i was at polling places and at grass-roots campaign headquarters in several places across north carolina today and was glad to be able to deliver a positive message. there are a lot of folks across the country, wolf, who have been turned off by the nasty and personal tone of this campaign and debate nationally. many are concerned that folks who would come out and vote for secretary clinton or for democrats like deborah ross who is running for the senate here in north carolina, might be turned off and stay home. we need folks to exercise their right to vote, even in the face of attempts to suppress voting rights here in north carolina and around the rest of the country, we need folks to come out and vote. it's something for which so many americans and fought and died over the last

there was a recount in minnesota, in a senatorial race in 2008. that was $460,000.l remember florida back in 2000, the bush/gore race down there. there was a state recount going on. it was topped by the courts, but "usa today" and "the miami herald" went ahead and did their own recount of just 60,000 disputed ballots. it took three months and cost $500,000, anderson. >> so how often do these happen and who pays for all of that? taxpayers? >> well, they're not really common. there's a group called fairvote.org that look at voting practices and they take a look at all of the votes that happened at the statewide level from 2000 to 2012, and they found the number of recounts, out of hundreds and hundreds of races, just 19. now, generally, if it's an automatic recount, yeah, the state may pay for it. but if it's requested by somebody, the requester pays for that recount, unless, in some cays, it's proven that the originally vote was fatally flawed. they're taking a real risk if you want to launch into this. and fair vote analyzed the results of this. they found that the

we're focused on senatorial races in missouri and congressional races and other legislative races.focused and why we're pleased that secretary clinton on the will address american people, answer questions from those who are undecided and continue to make sure that donald trump is accountable for everything he said. >> donna brazile, i have to leave it there. enjoy the debate. should be an interesting one. >> good to see you. >> up next, why i'm obsessed with a move the's made its way from the football field to the debate stage. ats success? is it a professor who never stops being a student? is it a caregiver determined to take care of her own? or is it a lifetime of work that blazes the path to your passions? your personal success takes a financial partner who values it as much as you do. arn more at tiaa.org wi another nlavor yout never saw coming... grilled, glazed korean bbq shrimp. and try as much as you want of flavors like new parmesan peppercorn shrimp. just come in before it ends. 80% of recurrent ischemic, strokes could be prevented. and i'm doing all i can to help prevent

s nrsc sort of recognized early on, the senatorial committee for the republicans, indicated he mightant to do that at the top of the ticket. they have their own ground games that don't have anything to do with him. if this gets out of handfor him i'm not sure they can still overcome it. >> mary kathryn, ryan, thank you. >> thank, don. >>> coming up a former "apprentice" campaign is one of the newest accusers. we'll get reaction from two other former contestants, as well. ..i'm in bristol, tennessee. on this side of the road is virginia... and on this side it's tennessee. no matter which state in the country you live in, you could save hundreds on car insurance by switching to geico. look, i'm in virginia... i'm in tennessee... virginia... tennessee... and now i'm in virginessee. see how much you could save on car insurance. or am i in tennaginia? hmmm... w...i was always searching for ways to manage my symptoms. i thought i had it covered. then i realized managing was all i was doing. when i finally told my doctor, he said humira was for people like me who have tried other medication

pedro: talk a little bit about the senatorial races. i want to get this in there before we go.hard burr, what challenges does he face from deborah ross? dallas: the biggest challenges he faces is all kinds of liberal special-interest money pouring into the state. but this was always going to be a close race. i think mr. burr will pull it out by two or three points. in north carolina politics these days, that is a landslide. ms. ross has a very long record in the legislature and through her time as attorney for the american civil liberties union, which reflects some values and some interests that i do not think match very well with the people of north carolina, including being very soft on crime, not for collection of dna versus accused felons, being against the original creation of the child sex offender registry. and i think even for a state certainly has got a moderate streak to it, i think they're going to find that ms. ross is too liberal for the state of north carolina. pedro: what do you expect turnout to be this year compared to previous cycles? dallas: we expect turn ou

brian walsh, communications director for the national republican senatorial committee a couple cycles ago. welcome. brad, i'll start with, you know, we know that there is stuff you do to within a presidential election and then there is stuff you do when you've got to keep the party in tact. today, i'm guessing donald trump did exactly what richard burr would want him to do in north carolina. >> there certainly are a lot of our lower republican voters who are the most excited about donald trump. i think pat toomey actually may end up being the biggest beneficiary of all. there are rarely recently for r er democrats in the part that is not filly philly or pittsburgh, more excited about trump than any democratic candidate. romney had a problem with low propensity republicans at the end of the campaign. that won't be the problem this year. it is the higher propensity republicans we're focused on. i think most of the people will come out for senate candidates. >> this was in pennsylvania a few minutes ago. it was almost as if the folks running the senate committee, the folks running toomey

of expanding this, all of a sudden now all of this is going to wet the feet of congressional and senatorial candidates. the evidence so for showing they have weathered the front end of this storm and it would likely be okay on the back end. >> before i let you go, elise, i just want to follow up. you have indicated there are more tapes. do you know that, how do you know that? >> it's been reported, right, that they are going to -- they're just starting looking into -- i'm trying to remember where i read this. >> she's right. >> you think that -- you think hugh hewitt -- hugh hewitt said earlier today, there is going to be more opo dumped on donald trump. >> absolutely. in the primary, every gop candidate's campaigns thought that someone else was going to do the dirty work of digging through donald trump's opposition. digging into all the dirt in his background, and a lot of campaigns concluded they didn't have the resources and attacking trump only alienated trump supporters so they needed to stay in the race because everyone who attacked him went down in the polls so now we're reaping a wh

i think the rnc recognized early on, which is the senatorial committee for republicans, they needed too that and he might be at the top of the ticket. they've put in work on that. they have their own ground games with nothing to do with him. there may be more ticket splitting than usual, but if it gets out of hand i'm not sure they can overcome it. >> thank you. coming up, a former "the apprentice" con teps atestant i aeps newest accuser. "is that credit karma again?" "just wanna see if my score changed..you wanna check yours?" "scores don't change that much. i haven't changed." "oh really?" "it's girls'night. ah huh."
