i work for new hampshire. i get up every day putting new hampshire first. if you want to see the bills in that survey, one is the defense bill. well, i worked hard, i'm on the armed services committee, i worked for the defense bill because it has provisions in it to help our shipyard, to help our national guard. i didn't support that bill because the president supported it. i supported it because it was good for new hampshire. another bill that's in that list is the equal pay act. well, i believe women should get equal pay for equal work. that's why i voted for it. the twice it came up when scott brown was in the senate. he opposed it. he's talked about the nfib and chamber the commerce. look at the survey that the nfib came up with. one of the things that's on there is raising the minimum wage. he opposes it. i support it. that's why i'm not on their list. another thing that's on it is regulations the clean air act and clean water act. i think we need to support the clean air act and clean water act. my opponent opposes it. >> senator shaheen, your opportu

reporting, live free or die, obamacare in new hampshire. now from the state capital of concord, brett baier. >> live free or die. that's the motto of new hampshire and right now there is a life and death political struggle going on here that reflects the national furor over the affordable care act, better known as obamacare, a law that is already reshaping health care in new hampshire and is part of a larger battle that may reshape the senate this fall. i've traveled here to the granite state to discover just what effect obamacare is having on these fiercely independent people. as you'll see, there are a lot of different opinions. but this much is certain, it's shaking things up. >> rochester, new hampshire, home to 63-year-old grandmother, margaret mccarthy. >> i'm not a lawyer. i'm not a political activist. i'm just an ordinary person that would like to have affordable insurance coverage that would allow me to continue to see the doctors that i know and trust. >> reporter: mrs. mccarthy is a retired bookkeeper who for years has purchased

polls show obamacare scoring poorly in new hampshire as it does elsewhere. it could be a liability for one term democratic senator jean shaheen whose vote for voeb care and support for president obama have become key issues. >> do you approve the job president obama is doing. do you approve yes or no? >> in some ways i approve in some things i don't approve. >> that is senator shaheen debating scott brown shocked the country when he won a special senatorial election in masses four years ago. >> they don't want a trillion dollar healthcare plan being forged. >> it is are a referendum or obamacare not law. he has vowed to repeal obamacare. >> there were 60 of us. everybody was a deciding vote. >> every democrat voted and every democrat was the deciding vote. the average of the latest polls shows the new hampshire race is extremely tight. >> the affordable care act doesn't think jean shaheen will have trouble convincing this was the right thing to do? >> do you like it or don't want to do it. the clear majority doesn't want to see this repealed. they want to se

. >> jean shaheen is a very tough candidate, rooted in new hampshire, she is the governor of new hampshire. she is fairly popular in new hampshire. but i pick scott brown because i -- i mean, i saw him coming on and he's an enormously attractive guy and he has roots back in new hampshire. so i pick scott brown. but i will say this. people should watch new hampshire on election night and the way that goes. if scott brown wins new hampshire, it is going to be a blood bath for the democrats. >> eleanor? >> if jean shaheen wins new hampshire things will be looking better. she is popular in the state. he really is a carpetbagger. he ran in massachusetts junior lost . then he moves to new hampshire. he was asked about sullivan county. he had no idea where it was or what it was. big gaffe at the end of the campaign. >> the polls show 49% to 49%. clarence? >> in brief i think shaheen pulls it out because she has got the roots and brown doesn't. >> i agree i think shaheen pulls it out. it will be a very close call but i think she will basically pull through. >> caller: says brown in a come from beh

it's not like scott brown has won the hearts and minds of people in new hampshire, but new hampshire is a fiercely independent state and there are a lot of independent voters there. and he has made this very much tried to nationalize this race. and it's hurt a little with those independent voters. the electorate in new hampshire in the off years, in the midterm elections, tends to be different than the -- as in the rest of the country but more so different than a presidential year and it's less hospitable to democrats and the president's approval rating there is about 40%. he's capitalized on that. so even though he's not popular, he's a vehicle for people who want to send a message and that's made this race close. >> yeah, david, it sounds like the woolly mammoth that powers this television station is up and running again so we have those clips. let's play them for our audience. >> how is the race this close at this moment. scott brown is not from new hampshire, scott brown has been talking about isis and ebola. how are the polls still neck in neck. >> we always knew this was going

she is rooted in new hampshire. she's the governor of new hampshire. and she is fairly popular in new hampshire. but i pick scott brown because i saw him really coming on and he's an attractive guy and he does have some roots. so i pick scott brown. i will say this, john, people should watch new hampshire on election night and the way that goes. if scott brown wins new hampshire, it is going to be a blood bath for the democrats. >> eleanor. >> if jean wins, he is a carpet beggar. he ran in massachusetts, lost the seat and moves into new hampshire and in the last debate this weekend, he was asked about sullivan county. i think one of ten counties in new hampshire. he had no idea where it was or what it was. big gasp at the end of the campaign. >> it's 49% to 49%. clarence. >> i think shane pulls it out. she has the roots. >> i agree. i think he pulls it out. it's going to be a close call. she's going to pull through. >> two errors. mclaughlin says brown will pull it off and a come from behind victory. new hampshire stays democratic. okay. north carolina

abc news ready to project jeanne shaheen will hold onto her seat in new hampshire. >> this is big. she defeated scott brown, the former massachusetts senator, trying to become the first senator, first person ever since weapon had direct election of senators to win in two states. here's what shaheen did. she did well among women. beat him badly among women. she did well among mold rats. here is the key. scott brown tried to tie her to president obama. new hampshire-ites don't like president obama right now all that much. republican leaders in congress even more unpopular, even more against that. that worked for shaheen. >> very interesting. when asked at a debate why the president hasn't come to campaign for her, he's busy in washington. >> she did have hillary clinton. >> she did. george, thank you. >>> and there is still much more ahead on "world news tonight" this tuesday. the mystery in the sky. and what we're just learning at this hour. take a look at this. what appeared to be a fireball across the sky. calls coming in from more than a dozen states. but tonight, word of an oppo

senate race in new hampshire may show how potent the race could be. in this race, it's a virtual dead heat. jeanne shaheen going after republican challenger scott brown. he's a republican. last, the u.s. senator from massachusetts. because he's not from new hampshire, the phrase of carpet bagger has been thrown around. she joked about it using the very controversial issue of immigration reform to talk about keeping scott brown out of new hampshire. >> we sort of let this guy sneak over the border. you probably have noticed that we've been debating border security a little bit in the campaign. literally, we didn't do enough to secure the southern border in new hampshire. >> she's voted not to secure the border, not to send troops to the border. i have. and i'm going to continue to bring that message to the people and, listen, to their rational fears about this real issue. >> reporter: brown is drawing big and enthusiastic crowds and he's making the argument that jeanne shaheen has been a loyal democratic supporter for the only agenda and for that needs

let's go back back to new hampshire, though. michael gerson, this was a state, again, democrats thought they were in good shape there, and they were sweating it out. >> well, this is one of the things i'm looking at tonight. can republicans win away games? can they win in places out of the south, out of their normal round house here? and new hampshire a lot of republicans had some hopes here. and that's been disappointed. we're looking at north carolina in that category. we're looking at iowa and colorado in that category. that indicates to me a lot about 2016. can republicans win in places that purple states, not just red states? >> well, the question is whether the candidate is the strong one or the challenger is the strong one? as we saw in kentucky, i think we have that speech from mitchell mcconnell, that excerpt. we're going the look at it right now and talk about it on the other side. >> when you get right down to it, that's what this campaign was really all about. it wasn't about me or my opponent. it was about a governm

a snapshot of new hampshire, one ward in the busiest city in new hampshire. the busiest ward, ward one, jeanne shaheen according to the early results has taken it by a narrow margin, roughly 300 votes. >> we'll see if she can keep that up statewide. the polls close at the top of the hour. new hampshire an important state democrats need to hold on to the senate seat. >> desperately. now that mcconnell has won, he is sitting around looking at the map. those are the votes from up in the state. we are very early on. so forget the percentages there. scott brown, the former senator from massachusetts, he was born in new hampshire and moved there and ran against jeanne shaheen. she was a former governor. and her defense against the obama drag is that you know me. i'm -- i was your governor. i'm jeanne. she is trying to get away from the national climate. if you talk to her supporters up there or people who voted for the president, they call it the national environment. the hillary clinton supporters call it the presidential drag. and in a state with jeanne shaheen w

that was new hampshire senator jean shaheen. while the crowd thought it was a funny moment, hard to imagine there's much laughter at shaheen headquarters after this race tightened up. scott brown was not supposed to even be a contender. maintained a ten-point polling lead in the last six months only to see it disappear in the last few weeks. chief political correspondent carl cameron now with a look at how that happened. >> thanks, megyn. the u.s. senate race in new hampshire really may test how potent the anti-obama and democratic agenda strategy by republicans can be. in this race is a virtual dead heat. jean shaheen going after republican challenger scott brown. he is a republican last u.s. senator from massachusetts. and because he's not from new hampshire the charges of carpet bagger have been put on quite a bit. at a chili cookoff she joked about it using immigration reform to talk about keeping scott brown out of new hampshire and denying him entry. watch. >> we sort of let this guy sneak over the border. you probably not

molly line in new hampshire. martha: president obama is not on the ballot but he said the americans will be voting on his policies. now the white house seems to be downplaying the role of the president in all this. >> reporter: the senate contests that so closely followed. it would not be wise to draw as broad a conclusion about the outcome this election as you would from a national presidential election. so these are states he didn't win in anyway. so it's not a referendum on the president. >> it sound likes he's setting up the white house to explain away what i think will be a substantial republican victory. the only outstanding question is how large will that victory be? >> we talk about the 6-year itch but it's very unusual in recent times for a president to experience two mid-term shellackings. it didn't happen with bush. clinton gets killed in '94 and comes back with a good night in 98. this is a president getting rebuked in 2010. and getting rebuked again. they will pick up potentially 7, 8, 9 seats. you l

england and new hampshire. and since entering office, i've really brought focus to that challenge, so we've released the first energy strategy in over a decade in new hampshire, an energy strategy that focuses on expanding national gas supply and increasing conservation and making sure we find ways, private-partner public partnerships to finance clean energy and making sure we move to a more reliable and flexible grid. in particular, we entered a agreement with the other new england governors to bring focus on to the particular challenge of bringing more natural gas capacity to this region because our gas spikes are related to that and am very glad we see the private sector coming in with two specific proposals to do that. thank you. >> mr. havenstein? >> the 10-year strategy the governor is referring to makes mention of the cleanest and cheapest renewable energy and that's hydroelectricity. we need to find a way, a new hampshire way, a balanced way to bring hydroelectricity into the state. yes, it goes to the

[cheers and applause] tonight the people of new hampshire chose to put new hampshire first. a few minutes ago, scott brown called to concede and wish me well. scott brown ran a vigorous race, and i wish him and gail and their family all the best. i am so proud to once again be able to represent the people of new hampshire in the united states senate. [cheers and applause] thank you. i promise you i will work with anyone in the senate -- democrat, republican, independent -- to get things done, to help new hampshire's working families and our small businesses. with the new term you have given me, i will fight to make sure that students can refinance their student loans. >> thank you! >> i will fight for a smart energy policy that focuses on efficiency and new energy technology. to end our reliance on oil and coal and fossil fuels. i will fight for a minimum wage -- [cheers and applause] that ensures that no one working 40 hours a week is stuck living in poverty. and i will fight for equal pay for equal work for women. [cheers and applause] i will fight for smart, serious, nati

also, new hampshire wants to swing. every single election, if there is even the slightest that of a wave, it goes with whatever the trend is. >> that first congressional district is a doozy. >> those congressional districts have gone back and forth every year. voters they are i think are more primed for that than in virginia. >> in terms of the races the republicans wanted to put on the table -- oregon, michigan, and minnesota -- this has to do with how deep the blue is. those are deeper blue states than new hampshire, north carolina, or virginia. i think partisanship is a significant factor. i think recruitment is really important though. there was a lot of of ink in michigan, but people i talked to found her of more limited appeal than other candidates. it has to do with the combination of candidates and -- virginia, i think that is so expensive. northern virginia has become such an important part of the vote, and it is hard to change the index. >> two dynamics. alison grimes asked repeatedly whether she voted for the

the early warnings have been new hampshire, north carolina, and a surprise in virginia. let me show you here, north carolina, this one is an incredibly close race, as you can see at this point. hagan is maintaining a lead here. all of our models indicate she's slightly up, but it's still a too close to call race. up in new hampshire, another democratic incumbent, jeanne shaheen, one of those republicans were picking this up, makes it a lot easier to find their road to six seats. but as you can see here, we have her ahead, just 16% in, but our models also seem to indicate that shaheen has a good lead. but we'll see how big it is later down the road. but the big surprise to me that tells you a little bit about this environment, it really was a republican environment, is what's going on in virginia. most of the vote that's come in is from republican territory. ed gillespie wins here. one of the reminders in 2012, if you remember, took a long time for barack obama to get the lead when he carried the state of virginia. the late reporting counties are in the washington, d.c. s

the governor of new hampshire, the two members of congress. all women. in iowa, with bruce braley, chicken dance, referring to the ad that they're running against the democrat. >> the chicken dance. bruce braley claims he's a farmer. >> so am i. >> but he's really a trial lawyer. >> i've spent 24 years of my life practicing law. >> the chicken dance. braley supported obamacare. he wants to be our senator. >> shows you the power of advertising, they got people curious. it's dangerous if you think about it. the odds may be long, but there's a way for democrats to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat and keep control of the united states senate. it means winning five highly contested states. we'll talk about that next with our roundtable. you're watching "hardball" up in new york, the place for politics. >>> this is going to be important coming up. the odds are long, but the democrats can keep control of the senate if they win just five close races. i think their best bet is new hampshire. jeanne shaheen should win that race. kay hagan, north carolina has

new hampshire is a state that is very us is suspectble of the national mood. we've seen the national mood sour in the final week of the campaign. scout brown very successfully capitalized on the idea that voters are anxious. isis, ebola, those are things that, you know, in new hampshire can resonate. there's a a lot of veterans in new hampshire. it's an important voting group there. i think it's contributed. >> you say ebola and isis. when you talk to voters those are not the critical stories while they sucked up the energy in the news cycle. we were leading with ebola and certainly isis for legitimate reasons. they were more stories that took up the oxygen but did not and do not affect how people are voting. it is going back to the economy and too that instability and fear despite the numbers that show an improvement in the economy and a lowering of the unemployment rate that the democrats could not sink their teeth into. >> people just aren't feeling that. we see it in the big numbers in the gdp numbers, even in the unemployment rate. >> what are they feelin

new hampshire and north carolina, move that over. the big if in kansas, say orman wins and goes with the democrats. the republicans then at 47. this says 46. you have to remember, there are two independents, king in maine, sanders in vermont, caucusing with the dems. that's 48. add two. which means the democrats are two short of what they need, they need 50. there are five states on the board right now. the bad news for democrats, in each of these five states, they're behind in the polling. so what is the most likely way they can get there? colorado, udall is running behind in the polling right now. democrats will say, the last time there was a major competitive senate election in colorado in 2010, the 11 polls in the month leading up to the election, not a single one of them put the democrat ahead and yet they won by two points on election day. they say they missed the latino vote. two major variables. let's say the polls have missed that in colorado and democrats can pick it up. where else do they look? i think the next most likely

hampshire. >> jeanne shaheen is a pillar of the politics in new hampshire. she was a popular governor. the fact that she was winning by a few points, if she had lost, boy oh boy that would have been more than a problem. counting in the senate. that would have told you that the obama head winds and the head winds in the current mood of the country are stronger than the evil pessimistic. a tight margin in the race. tighter than thought. >> it's important for republicans, for this midterm to matter. they need to pick up states, blue or purple. >> you made that point earlier. >> republicans picked up three states, in republican leaning states. they need to win north carolina, in iowa, colorado, new hampshire is off the stable. virginia is in play. they need to make a case that they can win in blue or purple case to have a case to win in 2016. when it will be more difficult. >> thought on that? >> you look at this map as we did before this election. i think we agreed that this was unfavourable for democrats. republicans had to bounce. i pay attention to what ray

>> it would be new hampshire. i feel she should win. if she does not win -- and least competent, i would have to say mark pryor. but frankly, joe, i do not even know that we were talking about that as a contested race. i would say colorado. and it is a close race, but gardner has been strong. and i would say north carolina. >> a superstar candidate. who is the strongest candidate? >> fred will hate me for this michelle nunn. >> michelle nunn. >> she put it to bed early. doesn't have to be in a contested one? you said open. >> all right. >> michelle nunn,.. either way, she is a winner. stay tuned. we are not done with our experts yet. we will have even more smart people at this table. actually, they will be even smarter than the current people. stay tuned. ♪ >> tomorrow night, all sorts of fun election stuff until we pass out or have to go home. we will have a rotating panel of people here smarter than us. here is the next group. a communications director formally with the white house, a veteran and republican ad maker, and we are recy

i know scott brown has used it in new hampshire and tom tillis in new hampshire. what have you seen? >> sure, we've seen that very much that there's such disquiet about the state of the world and particularly the administration's ability to handle these unexpected events that we're seeing national security pop up in a number of races and it's usually to the republicans' advantage. >> so, what races are you looking at here in -- you go to tuesday, how would you advise viewers to look, which races as the bellwethers in terms of the senate? >> there are five critical senate races that are all in states that are completely in the eastern time zone. so, we're going to get a pretty good indication early. georgia, north carolina, virginia, west virginia, and new hampshire. if the republicans only win one of those and they're pretty well assured to win west virginia, then they can still take control of the senate but it's going to be a long night. if republicans win three or four of those five, it's going to be a great night for the gop. >> okay. now, i know you know geor

i'm going to be watching new hampshire and kentucky. in new hampshire, jean sheheen is ahead, that's a good night for democrats because that bias may be the same in other states. on the other hand if she wins by less than that or she even loses then that is obviously not such a good night for democrats. similarly in kentucky mitch mcconnell is not in any real doubt now, he is leading allison lundergran grimes. if he wins by five points or less we should look to other states to have some surprises, some pleasant surprises for democrats. >> so let's talk about what many have talked about which is that this could be a way of election for the republicans if cnn and the washington post are right, they end up winning a lot of these races and take control of the senate does that necessarily mean that it is a wave election for republicans? because it's not same story when you're looking at state houses as who might win groafnls governor's rations. >> lot of them are reluctant to use the word wave. field that favors republicans so they have been

in the new hampshire senate nbc news long ago projected the winner of the new hampshire race would be the incumbent democrat in new hampshire jeanne shaheen defeating scott brown, scott brown who moved from massachusetts to new hampshire specifically it seems to run in that race. nbc news projected that and a lot of other news organizations projected that early in the night. scott brown for a long time was refusing to concede, making a lot of noise that he had not lost that race. that has changed and that makes him unique because he is now the only person who lose senate races to two different women. i'll keep saying that all night lost to two different women. we'll be right back. . >>> if you love politics you love nights like this. an historic night for the republican party, as they run a lot of the table tonight in the six-year mid-term elections during the barack obama preds cy presidency. let me give you a lay of the land of what has happened thus far tonight in the senate. in virginia, nbc news has projected the apparent winner in a very close senate race mark warner projected t

and again, it's like new hampshire, joe kapp chured it exactly right. it's going to be a bad night for the democrats as we move further west. >> even if democrats hold it in both of those cases, that's an indication it's going to be a bad night. and conversely, if the republicans take those, it's going to be a wave election. >> as you can see, my guys here can't wait to start breaking down some numbers, picking up some trends and wait for this, because look for the cam pain cowboys, we're going to break out our stetsons and bandannas sometime on tuesday, so you may want to stick around. >> you have really ridden that campaign cowboy thing. >> we haven't begun. >> i don't know if i would accept the invitation otherwise. our political panel be their ann analysis of what's moving the numbers. >> this is really the last chance for america to pass judgment on the obama administration and not it's policies. >>> this week marks the final time president obama will be campaigning for an election that directly impacts his presidency. >> charles krauthammer, juan

we're doing better in north carolina and new hampshire. we have candidates across the country focused on the issues, importance of the middle class and working families. and the republicans have doubled down on obstruction and extremism. stack up our policies of increasing the minimum wage and fight for equal pay for equal work which republicans oppose. i'd stack up our surrogates. we have president obama, vice president biden, secretary clinton, president clinton. and they have rand paul, chris christie and ted cruz. so going into election day, the advantages that we have are superior to the ones the republicans have. the most important things that voters are asking themselves is who has my back? and they will consistently across the board say democrats have their back. and that's why in the midterm election where normally the president's party loses an average of 29 seats, these races are extremely close. when we keep races close like this, democrats win. that's what's going to happen. >> if republicans don't take the senate on tuesday,

good morning. >> that's right, that is razor-thin vote here in new hampshire for the senate. it's a virtual dead heat depending on what poll you're looking at, jeanne shaheen might be ahead by two points, other polls have scott brown ahead by two points and that's well within the margin for error so this is a razor thin vote going in. republicans seeing this as a great chance to pick off a democratic senate seat. you talked about how scott brown is tying jeanne shaheen to president obama. he has wasted absolutely no opportunities during this campaign to tie her to president obama who is incredibly unpopular in this state. his approval numbers are in the 30 percentage points here and he at every turn scott brown has tied her to president obama saying both jeanne shaheen and president obama have left the country vulnerable to the ebola virus, to terrorism. he's talked about isis in the campaign. now, countering that, jeanne shaheen has painted scott brown as an outsider. he held a senate seat in massachusetts for two years before losing that seat in 2012, he has a vacation home

the only one that got bad news is new hampshire. in this wave, if they wouldn't win that senate race in new hampshire, you start to say that maybe new hampshire is becoming more and more part of that blue wall. we can put it it there now. new hampshire state democrats can feel a little bit better about. that's a quick look ahead to 2016, based on what happened this week. we'll be going back to this map once or twice more. we hope we look at it. hopefully get the right colors next time, too. >>> speaking of scott brown, the one republican who didn't catch that wave on tuesday was scott brown. why did it miss him? we'll ask that question next. ♪ vicks nyquil severe. helps relieve your ugliest, nastiest, roughest, toughest cold symptoms. vicks nyquil severe. with maximum symptom fighting ingredients. ♪ wow!

now he's back and he's in new hampshire. this could be extremely close. look at the most recent polls. some show him narrowly behind jeanne shaheen and one poll showing him leading. what does that tell you? well, like many races, it is something of a referendum on the president's policies. scott brown isn't running a campaign based on what all jeanne shaheen has done wrong. she's quite popular in this state. he's running based on her voting record, calling her a rubber stamp for the president. she's calling him a carpet bagger. can't seem to make up his mind what he wants to run for or where. because of all of this excitement, we could see record voter turnout here in new hampshire. jake? >> a hard-fought race. michelle kosinski, pamela brown, thank you so much. what's election night without nail biting? we'll look at canada's closing the gaps in the home stretch and it's not just balance of the power in the senate. it's how the race for governor could affect two key races. back after this. >>> meet charlie crist. he used to be a republican governor. then
