yeah, so there was a culture of violence in philadelphia. i think the most remarkable of which is probably the volunteer fire companies in that would go out to fires and compete to be the first to plug in their hose at the fireplugs the hygrims as we now call them and if another company got there first, well, maybe they cut the hose or maybe they would, you know, try to beat up the other company to get to the hose or if that didn't work. maybe just wait till the next weekend and try to raid that company and steal its hose carriage hack it to bits in the street and then these companies would have unofficial gang so you'd have official members of the fire companies glad to be 21 years old or older usually and then some sort of 19 and 20 year olds hanging around and if you've ever met a 19 or 20 year old, you know that they may not have the very best judgment and may take some excitement on the warm summer night. and so south work was notorious for being full of these gangs and if you cross to the wrong side of the street and didn't notice the

i am chuck todd in philadelphia. it is a city rich in american history and a fitting place to talk about the future of our country less than a week before some of the most important primaries on the 2022 midterm calendar. pennsylvania will be key in the midterms and key in 2024. it may have replaced ohio as the state. we spoke to voters, officials and one of the top republican senate candidates at the center of a very muddled and messy primary. today the focus is on the future of the democratic party and the message pennsylvania democrats appear to be sending is clear as an unorthodox politician appears to be pulling away in the primary. this wasn't expected to be a blowout if you will. according to one poll the lieutenant governor john fetterman is up nearly 30 points over the more moderate congressman conor lamb and malconkenyata. we have an exclusive look at the fettermans, he and his wife in a moment. the question on the minds of democrats around the question is whether john fetterman is the future of the democra

, the suburban collar companies outside of philadelphia. voter rich, about a quarter of all voters will come out, of it may become slow to report. one of the big ones we got, delaware county we've got a big batch of votes from delaware company. it's a good batch of votes for mccormick, he leaves in that batch over oz so that helped to push david mccormack's lead up statewide that number that you see right there. now the other places here in the philadelphia area where we have big outstanding votes will start in montgomery county you can still see a lot to come in montgomery county. it is kathy barnette's home county it's listed on the ballot as her home county. it's listed on the ballot is his home county as well. interesting lee our system we receive votes from is not necessarily plugged into the website of the county and we were just looking at the website of the county and the website of the county is reporting out a few more votes than we have so far recorded in our system and the upshot of it is that according to the website for montgo

of philadelphia. border rich, about a quarter of all those are going to come out of them. they've been slow to report some of them have. one of the big outstanding ones is right here, is delaware county, we finally got a big batch of votes from delaware county. it was a good batch of votes for mccormick. he leads in that batch, over us. that helped push david mccormack lead up statewide. to that number that you see right there. now, the other places here in philadelphia area where we see the biggest sounding both, was tied up montgomery county. you can see still a lot to come in montgomery county, it is barnett, it is kathy barnett's home county. it is listed on the county ballot. it's limit of a home county listed at as his own as well. interestingly, our system we received vote from where we received votes from is not necessarily plugged into the website of the county. and we were just looking at the website of the county and the website of the counties reporting out, a few more votes that we have s

he wasn't exposing a big fraud in philadelphia. the election wasn't stolen. >> while rudy was speaking i was off to the side with mike and murray. we looked at each other, and we are in awe of how long this was going on. >> and i know, i know he won't accept it, because of your hateful biases. but see if he can try to think rational. put some of those ballots and manufactured in advance by the democrat machine of philadelphia. wouldn't be the first time they did it. >> i didn't think anyone took this real serious. >> how can i possibly tell you? there's fraud or no fraud. >> you just said -- >> and somebody said, you know they have called the election for biden. >> who was a called by 00 my goodness. all the networks! wow! all the networks! >> all the networks! when the networks decide the election. and we're all thinking all the time. networks called the elections you can see this ripple among the crowd of journalist. >> as they try to figure out what to do. i'm kind of stunning thinking the same thing. do i need to stay here? or

it really is a steward and a pillar of the philadelphia a black philadelphia community. and i'm glad that you mentioned before for fortin women because that was i mean even into the era even into the far 19th century where we have charlotte horton his granddaughter. so a lot of a lot of important people who did amazing things. so going forward. there's what else are we hoping to discover about james fortin about black revolutionary war soldiers about how what else do we looking to discover and how will that be brought to life here at the museum? um going forward we are working diligently on an upcoming something that we're working on an exhibition on the fortin family it it's just kind it's just amazing how much i've been scaffold in the past few years since i've been here from discovery cards from fortin's work in the galleries to virtual programming. you know gives insight to fortin story. there's just so much to build upon and i'm very excited to incorporate nathan's work. we have other pieces to this play as well that you know, we'll see life one day. so it's just it

the philadelphia suburbs the biggest piece of outstanding vote. you see what's going on in those places. two things to keep in mind, number one, wherever this lands tonight, the final margin is critical because pennsylvania state law is automatic recount if the margin is less than or equal to half a percent, 0.5. you can see right now it's 0.2. it's .2 separating these candidates. so the prospect of a recount looms as a significant possibility at this point. and the other thing to keep in mind is they counted a few more in the last few minutes. we're saying now there are about 30,000 mail-in ballots that haven't been counted. some counties are going to count them up at the very end of tonight, but there are a number of counties in pennsylvania that are not going to touch their mail-in ballots until tomorrow. so there's the prospect that a significant chunk of these 30,000 or so mail ballots will not be counted until tomorrow. so again, you can do the math. mccormick and oz have been within a couple thousand votes of each other. this thing could la

. >> devin was living in new philadelphia in an apartment complex with her mother and her brother, dylan. >> when he got home and she went outside to play, everything was fine. >> it was around 2:00 p.m. when laurie dunham realized her daughter isn't where she thinks she should be. >> i got to the house, i noticed devin's mom was outside looking, calling for her, asking for her. >> this was about probably 2:05, somewhere around there. anthony at that point was coming from the woods. >> she had asked me if i could help look for devin, and she gave me 5 bucks. okay, well $5 to a 12-year-old kid is a lot. i was searching for my heart. i mean, she was 5 years old. she had no reason being away from home. we did that for a few hours. and then we stopped because a major storm was going to blow in. >> june 27th, 1998, i answered the phone. and a hysterical female was reporting her 5-year-old daughter missing. >> the community really pulled together, and it was amazing, actually. i don't know the exact number for saturday night, but i think it was like around 400 to 450 people that were searching

so you can see, philadelphia, the city of philadelphia is about 85/15 democrats to republicans. so just a slight distinction there. your point is well-taken about the collar counties here. bucks, montgomery, delaware. >> laura: looks like in bucks county, the numbers coming in for mccormick are also i guess decent, correct? >> in bucks county? >> laura: yes. >> mccormick of the votes tallies, 3,000 raw votes. oz has 2,700. officially, laura, back to .9%. >> laura: wow. bill, this is -- it's so great to be on the air with you at the billboard. thanks, bill. check back with you. tom bevan, again, this is so razor tight. we love nights like this. it's exciting. final thought on where this stands and how this might then go on and affect other primaries on the time goes on before november. >> yeah, look at the raw vote total. it's about -- mccormick is holding steady at 7,700 vote lead. oz has been ticking up in terms of the percentage, he might run out of runway here was there just aren't that many votes left out. may get to recount territory. that would mean we wouldn't know who th

and kenyatta did well, what, in philadelphia or -- >> philadelphia. that's what you've got to look at. it's still, though, fetterman territory. but he got 53,000 votes there. really the story tonight, the thing to watch, the thing the country and possibly control of the senate holding on to, is the senate. >> let's go back to this. there's 1,0 other 1,020 now. >> you see that getting titler. >> mehmet oz when he's addressing folks at his campaign headquarters saying we can still pull this off, this isn't going to be decided until tomorrow, he's right. >> 1,000 votes right now. .1%. >> is that a runoff? >> .5% or less is a -- sorry, is a recount. there is no runoff. >> that's what i meant. recount. >> but recount. we're very much in recount territory right now. this is going to go on for days, plural, potentially. this is as tight as it gets. >> wow. so you can see it's still coming in, it's razor thin, and it can happen now, but we shall see at least within the next couple of hours. cnn is ready to project the republican idaho republican primary for g

she suggests in philadelphia is a very dramatic kind of female academy french academy in philadelphia, which would be run always by a woman with a board of equally men and women but governed by majority votes so women would in essence have the vote and the woman who ran it would always be capable of getting speeches to 300 people in public and so this idea about education that is designed to take the the central idea about why women couldn't participate in politics, which is that women were not capable. they didn't have the right capacity and so in this sense, her idea isn't just women should get educated. it's an idea about establishing female capacity and the idea is if you can show that female that women have capacity have sort of the same intellectual capacity. man, then of course they're going to get to vote because there aren't yet gender-based explicit barriers in most places. and so one thing that's really significant is to understand that education here the desire for education the claim for education the insistence on equal education is a political claim. it's it's not a sid

in philadelphia. which we run always by a woman with a board of equal lee men and women. but governed by majority vote. women would have the vote. the woman who ran it would always be capable of giving speakers 300 people in public. this is an idea about education that is designed to take the central idea about why women can participate in politics. women were not capable. they did not have the right capacity this sense, the idea, women should not get educated, it's an idea about establishing female capacity. the idea is, if you can show that female, that women, and have capacity, have sort of the same intellectual capacities as man, then of course they're going to get to vote, there aren't yet gender based explicit barriers in most places. one thing that's really significant is to understand that education here, the desire for education, the claim for education, the insistence on equal education is a political claim. it's not a side like claim. so her educational ambition is huge. if we read it with

so the philadelphia suburbs, there's a meeting in philadelphia suburbs. i think there's going to be a single source of outstanding votes to come in tonight. and again, let's see if that shakes us up at all. here. the other issue, as i mentioned, is mail in ballots. ballots that either arrived later today, were dropped off today, were postmarked. many different combinations. different counties are handling them differently. there is some counties that made the decision, we are not going to look at mail-in ballots until the morning after the election. so, we are not sure on the exact number, but i would say there was at least 33,000 mail-in ballots that have not been counted. and they are not included in this. and many of those 33 thousands are not going to be processed and reported out until tomorrow at the earliest. so that is the other key variable here. we're looking at the same day vote. particularly in the philadelphia suburbs. there are other counties with same-day votes to come. that is going to have a lot to say as the mccormack shakes out. but whe

so you see philadelphia, the city of philadelphia is that it's aboutoc eighty five fifteen democrats to republicans. sora there's just a slight distinction there. but your point is well taken about the collar countiesoi her bucks and montgomery and delaware and it looks like in bucks county the numbers coming in for mccormick are also i guess decent.rr correctec in bucks county, yes. >> in bucks county? mccormick's out of the vote that's tallieded three thousand roll votes. dr. oz has twenty three hundred and the difference is seven percentage points. got that . okay, officially, laura ,ur back to pointa, nine percent. >> wow, bill , it's so great to be on the air with you at the billboard is awesome. thank you so much. belichick maga you all right? tom bevan again this so razor tight.r we love nights like this because it's really l. htngtight. final thought on where this stands and how this might then go on and affect other primaries as the time goes on before november.no >> yeah, i meanve youmber. lookt the raw vote total. i mean it's been it's about because it's been holding stead

i was a police officer employed by the city of new philadelphia police department. on june 27th, 1998, i answered the phone and a hysterical female was reporting her 5-year-old daughter missing. >> my cousin had went to the caitlin's house one more time and went to the neighbors, and the neighbor said that that family was on vacation. and at that point we had called the police. >> lori had indicated that she'd last seen daughter at 1:30 in the afternoon. and she didn't call the police department until 11 minutes after 8:00 that night. right away we're six hours behind on trying to locate her. >> the police called here and gave the official word that there was a search with neighbors and that they were desperately seeking this girl. and our news director, jennifer clark, had arrived and took that phone call and began making the announcements on the air. >> the weather was going to be really bad, so we really wanted to find her. so we wanted to get on the air what was happening. do you want to help? this is where you go. >> my daughter-in-law called me and said they h

oz, that's philadelphia county. it happens to be the biggest population center in the state, philadelphia. one, kathy barnette, in montgomery county in the suburbs out here. leading with about 15% in in this very important suburban area outside of philly, 30%, 25, 18. so that's what we'll be watching. bucks county, 31, 24, 19. so they're splitting the vote in the early vote as we come through it and you're looking for anything regional at the moment. obviously philadelphia is county number one. allegheny county in terms of population is county number two. here you do see mccormick with an edge in this three-way race. you see how the vote is splitting. in the population centers you want a gap like that if it holds up. it's only 12% of the vote but you'd like a 20-point gap like that in a major population center because that gives you math. but from the trump experience we know pennsylvania is a very competitive state or commonwealth and you see all these counties that are gray, that's trump country. so does the trump

he is a baptist minister from philadelphia. i created the narrative in which he is the presiding officer. he is the president, the george washington of the constitutional convention. what made him the george washington, or the president? he is the fifth generation descendant of sally hemings and thomas jefferson. i thought that was so fit! i called him up and i asked, despite never having talked to him before, would you like to participate in my imaginary constitutional convention. being the generous, beautiful human being that he is he was totally site to do it! he is my presiding officer. mike bruni is the guy on the bottom. he is the ceo, president of the sierra club. the world's largest environmental conservation group. i called him up because there is no doubt in my mind that environmental issues would be on the docket of a 2022 constitutional convention. i said, mike, would you mind being a participant in my imaginary constitutional convention? he too, beautiful person, says absolutely! he crafted language like he was a d

there aren't a ton of republican votes in philadelphia. but there are some left here probably just under a thousand election day votes to be counted in it philadelphia. you see that red color there. mehmet oz has been doing well in philadelphia among the republican who is have voted there. so oz could pick up some vote there is. and then really beyond that, it is just a question of ballots. we're not sure how many are left, but the number maybe around 15,000 or so. mccormick is outpacing oz with the vote by mail ballots. in those that have been counted today, we have had 10,000 ballots counted today. mccormick is leading oz among that group of votes by 7 points. so with the mail ballots. this is how they have slowly, slowly chipped away a little bit at this oz lead here. so basically can mccormick get extra volts when that's all counted up. he's likely to take sol kind of a hit in philadelphia. he may have a to win by a bigger margin. he'd need all that to happen to erase that 1,500 vote lead. however it finishes the margin between these t

we're live from philadelphia. my cloeg continues our live coverage from pennsylvania at 2:00 as voters continue to cast their ballots in one of the most closely watched election this is year. remember, follow the show online, on facebook and on twitter. chuck todd with "mtp daily" starts right after these messages. with "mtp daily" star rtsight after these star rtsight after these messagesh invested... in green energy. and also each other. digital tools so impressive, you just can't stop. what would you like the power to do? before i got aura, twenty-four of my online accounts were hacked! he uses the same password for everything. i didn't want to deal with it. but aura digital security just dealt with it. what were we worried about again? shopping on public wifi is sketchy. but with aura digital security, my devices are protected in like 3 minutes. it's time to protect your life online with aura's all-in-one digital security. try for free today at aura.com what was that password anyway? ew. you're pretty particul

philadelphia actually, this is kenya's home area here. he is actually leading in a boat here, followed very closely by fetterman, and then laminate this in here. primarily looking at mailing ballots here and this democratic primary. we talked about the disparity. mail-in ballots pick up a county of half of all the votes cast it in democratic primary in pennsylvania. for pets that are meant to be running up these kind of numbers from west to east, and in between in the middle of the state to. that's a substantial lead that betterment has built their over lamb. you can just look at that map and immediately see, here's the place where lamp can turn around. like i said, this is mail voting, we still have the votes from today that will be counted up. we will see if there's been some dramatic shift in the same day vote. that's what it would take four lamb to get into this. otherwise, fetterman is in great position right here. i thought your attention to the mail-in ballots for another reason though. let's compare -- they are counting up the vot

going through philadelphia suburbs. but we still have a fair amount to come next door. from montgomery county. a fair amount to come from bucks county as well. so the philadelphia suburbs, i think there's going to be a single source of outstanding votes to come in tonight. and again, let's see if that shakes us up at all. here. the other issue, as i mentioned, is mail in ballots. ballots that either arrived later today, were dropped off today, were postmarked. many different combinations. different counties are handling them differently. there are some counties that made the decision, we are not going to look at mail-in ballots until the morning after the election. so, we are not sure on the exact number, but i would say there was at least 33,000 mail-in ballots that have not been counted. and they are not included in this. and many of those 33 thousands are not going to be processed and reported out until tomorrow at the earliest. so that is the other key variable here. we're looking at the same day vote. particularly in the philadelphia suburbs. there are other counti

so the question is do you hold the the constitutional convention in philadelphia? and what i did is super interesting. i reached out to a great civil war historian who's now a princeton a guy named alan wells though. everybody should read his book about gettysburg. he was a when i reached out to him. he was at the time at gettysburg college, but now he's at princeton and i said, you know alan where here's my scenario where might they have held the constitutional convention in 1863 assuming it went on and i said, would it be new york or boston or something like that? and he's he wrote me back and he said bow they probably would have considered the framers probably in the 1863 probably would have considered columbus, ohio and i said hold on this ohio really and he said yeah, don't forget couple things one is they want to give a nod to those western states west of the appalachian to ohio is the third largest state by population. they probably would have given some thought to to columbus, ohio. but ultimately he said certainly not new york new york was very much kind o

in its editorial announcing no endorsements in the republican primary for governor, the philadelphia inquirer writes, how do you fine points of agreement when you can't reach common ground on facts, so basic that they could be used in a field sobriety test. republican voters in pennsylvania yesterday didn't do so well, on that field sobriety test, and so now you may be one election away from living in a country with newly installed republican governors in pennsylvania and other states, conspire with newly installed republican secretary of state in pennsylvania and other states, who deny that the express will of the voters of those states, at the ballot box, and gleefully followed donald trump's urgings -- just as donald trump or georgia to do last time, and delivered their states electoral votes illegally to donald trump. in a fair world, joshua pirro would get to run for governor, debating issues like taxation, economic development, education, environmental issues. the usual concerns of governors, this time joshua pirro alone in pennsylvania has the job of saving worked on in pennsy
