why not go that far if there is that yount to be made address more systemic problems? applaud airbnb and facebook and google for following it. barhink that the fact the is being raised for everyone is a good thing. it is a great thing when you have companies competing to raise the bar on an issue like this. when we took the step to announce the end of mandatory withration, we did so safety primarily in mind. this is a first step but not the only step. these are active conversations we continue to have. i should say that there is nothing wrong with arbitration. that an appropriate tool is used by businesses every day in an appropriate way. what we determine is that it is used -- its use when it comes to sexual harassment was inappropriate because it strict control from the survivor. to do what the original act can do in terms of stripping the control. it is not an appropriate tool there. you want to give the survivor a atice area at as we look whether or not arbitration is appropriate for other types of claims, that is the kind of frame that we will approach it with. >>

they talked about adam yount. it was great.alfway through the show, though, i feel a little something stuck in my beard. turned out it was one last little bit of roast beef. [ laughter ] and i ate it. and it was delicious. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] what are you going to do? i told the people here at work, they're like oh, that's disgusting. i was like oh, it is? i don't know. this is how vikings would get through the winter, they'd store bits of meat in their beards and they'd eat it when they're hungry. anyway. tomorrow morning if you haven't already i hope will you vote in the midterm elections. [ cheers and applause ] and then hopefully we'll be done hearing and talking about this for a while. i've had enough. i've got more e-mails this week from the beto o'rourke campaign than from my mother, my father, my children and my wife combined. my wife and i were in las vegas in nevada over the weekend to help drum up voter enthusiasm. and it was actually great to see a lot of young people out there motivated, exciting,

now, i am not sure if you talk about this or -- what yount to know think the implications of such a mistake our? do you think of the implications such a mistake our? caller: well, i think there are a few things that have to be set about it. host: such as? caller: one, it is a major mistake because it could have swayed the polls in a different way. if you notice, they had gilliam -- was that his name? the democrat? host: guillen out of florida? yeah, they had him beating the other guy. then it ended up the other way. sometimes that depends on districts and when results get in from various districts across the state. florida is a big state, so you might have seen it at a point where initially he was ahead, and that changes as more information comes in. caller: that could be true, yes. i am just saying -- mistakes like that can't happen. host: ok, that's caleb in alaska. aboutre telling us that two minutes from now, the president will address the reporters. again, we will bring that to you. to show you some headlines, this is the houston chronicle, from the senate race that took place. the hou

onhappening and if we just sit here and completely grim, then i don't know if it seems to far away that younton't even be ae to enter. you know, these are people just like us. they happen to be born in the wrong place and that's the only thing that separates them from us. >> i understand what you're saying, these things are unbearable in some cases and i think one of the strange things about spending time in a country that's in the middle of a war or violence, you know, uprising, is that -- or even a country that has been going through that for many years, is that people have in strange way -- i'm often finding myself sitting there stone-facing, oh, my god and they are laughing. >> yeah. >> i was with a group of people who had been in libyan prison during the -- the last months of gadhafi's reign in 2011 and they had gotten out at the time of liberation and they had gone down and tracked down guards who kept them and they then put them in their own prison. they found the videos made of them and their friends being tortured and they started watching them. and i sat there with them, i was just

betsy: and want to get a little more into trump in a second but younted to ask david here, alluded to polling being off. can you talk a little bit more about why that is, what we have to think about when we are actually reading the polls, why are these public polls not as reliable as some of the private polls within campaigns. you also have to look at with a little bit of suspect. dr. barker: it's a complicated picture. the first thing to note is that, and this is sort of like what we saw in 2016, when the polls got a bad rap. the other day, generally speaking, across the board, this was a great night for polling. if you look at all the individual races across the country, the vast majority of them were determined in margins that were inside the margins of error for these polls, and historically it's really difficult to poll well within states, let alone within particular districts. i would say it was a great night for polling. if you look at the 538 final projections, the meat of that projection was democrats would pick up about 35 seats, which it appears like it's exactly what they'

i know yount have to define the need, set the expectation, put these requirements and are to clayton. assuming that's been done. this is an i.t. issue. and again it feels like an exercise in futility, just about every program and every good intention of this committee where we're trying to solve the problem answer our veterans and then it's just more i.t. rigmarole and legacy this and that and the other. brokenness and dysfunction. i feel like there's a a leaderp issue. i feel like there's lack of strategic management. i think there is real plan for the i.t. architecture of this agency. i just think it's fundamentally broken. do you agree with that, yes or no? >> i don't have context that you have to respond to the broad question speedy you work there. they are not serving you and you hear before this committee. you believe it's broken fundamentally and dysfunction? has booz allen, i've more confidence in. his expertise and he says he uses the word legacy. that's a nice way of saying it's old and its antiquated and it doesn't work well and in doing the best i can with this old antiqua
