steve harrigan is live in nashville. why is this race getting so much attention?, a lot of national attention here. a lot of outside money pouring in as well. this senate race could become the most expensive nut history of the state of tennessee. it could decide who controls the senate. it can also mean a lot to determine president trump's influence and popularity. keep in mind, in 2016, he won this state by 26 points. and the republican likely candidate martha black burn is basically running on a platform that she will do everything she can to push forward out pit's agenda. here's blackburn. >> a u.s. senator who is going to support the trump tax cuts because the trump tax cuts are working. and they know that my opponent called them crumbs. said he would have voted against the tax cuts. and they want someone who is going to be there every step of the way for tax cuts. >> if blackburn does win, she will be the first woman senator in tennessee's history. dana? >> dana: phil bredesen, trying to run away or distance himself from the democratic party? >> he really doe

steve harrigan is live in honolulu. what's the latest? >> jon, as the danger from wind, this hurricane has largely fallen apart. there's no longer a hurricane. no more a tropical storm warnings either across the state of hawaii. we just heard the mayor of honolulu a short time ago saying the state has dodged a bullet. but still as a rain event, there is still danger ahead. we have seen more than 45 inches of rain on parts of the state, including the big island. there's been some flooding there of highways, some people rescued from their homes as well, and fema administrators have warned that the state is not out of the woods yet. >> any time a hurricane or tropical storm is losing -- is moving less than 10 miles-an-hour obviously the -- it has a high propensity to dump torrential rains and that's what we're worried about right now. >> it looked like here in honolulu we could be facing a direct hit. instead that storm veered quickly to the left and people here were told to prepare two weeks of food and water, but as you can see, the relaxe

steve harrigan is in atlanta. ar after the massive storm there is simply a huge gap. initially the government of puerto rico saying 64 people died. now they're saying 2,975 people died. the island that was not prepared for this storm was also unable to count the bodies afterward. at this number it's the largest hurricane death toll in the past century in the u.s. >> my only consideration is the well-being of the people of puerto rico and was getting the best available information and the truth out there. so yes, i made mistakes, yes, in hindsight things could have been handled differently and my commitment as governor is accepting that criticism but also building upon it. >> the new numbers from the government comes on the heels of a report by george washington university which looked at indirect deaths from the storm. things like delayed medical care after the storm and also the gap between the number of people who actually died in puerto rico with the expected number to die during the weeks and months after the s
