>> stacey: yes it does, the agencies and the operations. many democrats in this congress joined ma lawsuit because we had requested from gao, the lease and lease agreements pertaining to the trump corporations, a lease of government land. that being the post office where the trump hotel is here in washington, d.c. in the past, that information had been given to us. after the inaug yrgses it was denied. those are the kinds of things we are going to be looking at due to the emoluments clause and the need for the elected officials and those in appointed positions not to be gaining financial gain from government operations. >> pedro: so as far as though technical matters when it comes to the trump hotels and things like that when it comes to the administration itself are you the body that will look at tax returns. >> stacey: tax returns are with ways and means. i know there's been discussion with maxine waters the chair of financial services, will be looking at banking, but tax matters and subpoenaing will belong to ways and means whose chair w

so far, we have heard chants s "stacey, stacey, stacey" of course which is a nod no the oprah's time she gave a car saying you get a car, you get a car, you get a car. and now sh, oprah does a couple things for this race. one, she is here to energize the vote. she is here at this pivotal time with concerns of voter suppression, but andrea, a number of big names that have come out, and as a matter of fact, the vice president is here today, but for him, oprah winfrey, her power transcends politic, and so she is going to energize the women voters and the african-american voters to get out, and she is significant, andrea, but she does not get into politics a lot. you remember that she did endorse candidate obama back in 2006, and that is significant and helped him to energize african-american, and she endorsed hillary clinton, but this is the first major endorsement of the 2018 midterm election elections, and this is going to be significant and make a flash, and it is going to the raise new questions about her own potential political prospect, and there is a lot of buzz if oprah winfrey

that's what stacey stands for. >> joy reid is back with us from georgia. and joy, on the day that we discover to no one's surprise that donald trump says racist things in private there is barack obama out there on the campaign trail trying to address this, trying to heal in whatever way he can the racial division that's out there. >> yeah, and i mean again they are presidents of two different countries. and you saw it earlier today when john lewis spoke in makin', georgia, for stacey abrams and talking about what he went through just to have the right to vote. stacey abrams tells a story when she was valid victorian of her high school class, going to the governor's mansion and turned away by the guard who was white and saying you don't belong here. and having her parents who were both methodist ministers having to dress down this white guard who was refusing to let her into the governor's mansion. and the sort of poetic irony she's now running to be the governor of this state -- and i think we tend to consign that history of racism to it distant past, and

and i think stacey abrams is right. he's trying to distract from the fact that he's been involved in just a conflict of interest from day one. he should have recused himself as secretary of state while he's a candidate for governor. he's tried to use his office to continue this awful scourge of voter suppression. this is interesting. we were in georgia. the national urban league was working on getting out the vote and watch georgia and watch the millennial and gen-z vote. watch the votes of young women. this race is a race where there may be a realignment with voters who have not voted. there's always been a large number, particularly of african-americans, in georgia who are not registered. in atlanta who are not registered. and stacey abrams, i believe, has motivated them in a very special way. >> do you think the efforts that many say have been focused on suppressing the vote, brian kemp's office using this, you know, what had been outlawed, this technique of matching signatures and court had previously said he couldn

well, i'd like to remind stacey and oprah and willferrell, i'm kind of a big deal, too. and i got a message for all of stacey abrams' liberal hollywood friends. this ain't hollywood. this is georgia. >> we as women people need to stand united and vote our values. vote your values. vote your conscience. all this noise, all the noise, all the noise, you just can't get away from it. you turn on the tv. it's so much noise and crazy talk. all the vitriol in the ads, you know what, they are designed to confuse and confound you with fear. that's what they're doing. they're designed to confound you with fear. they are not designed for people with discernment. women people, we have discernment. when we all unite, i know for sure a change is going to come. so i'm here today to support a change maker. she's a woman who dared believe that she could change the state of georgia. >> let's go to georgia, in decatur, where stacey abrams' next event will soon get under way. what else did oprah say? >> reporter: as soon as she took the stage, she told the georgia voters in the audience, yo

this was not about stacey saying she personally has been cheated. she was saying the voters of georgia have been cheated. in terms of the evidence, there have been cases just this recently in this recent election where judges had to force the secretary of state or force the secretary of state's office to actually count people's ballots, to make sure that they were on the rolls instead of purged off the rolls. there is an abundance of evidence in a the secretary of state's office combined with other ways not only in this election but previous iterations have a pattern and a practice of disenfranchising georgia voters. this wasn't about -- not stacey sanding up saying i personally have been harmed by this. she is and itting up on behalf of georgia voters saying i am going to fight for you. i'm going to fight to make sure that your vote, whatever choice that you make, for, you know, in those votes, are actually counted and you have an fu opportunity to do that. >> important, were ut we are talking about approximately 3,5400 votes reinstated by this fed

stacey abrams here. i'm going to let her react to it. i'll throw it over to you. >> i tell folks i am mississippi raised and georgia grown, and there is no higher honor than to have myrlie evers endorse my race for governor of georgia. we know our fates are yoked together in the south. when georgia does something, when mississippi does something, when alabama does something, when louisiana rises, we all rise together. to be able to lead georgia and have her support behind me is an extraordinary moment. i want to say thank you to mrs. evers for all you've done not only for mississippi but for all america. >> i thank you so much. >> ms. evers, i wanted to just ask you, a lot of people don't know that stacey abrams is originally from mississippi. it's the state that has captured the sort of lurid imagination of the united states, because of its really difficult history including you and your husband's fights for voting rights. is there something happening in the south that the rest of the country has missed, a change, a sense of urgency, a

oprah winfrey asking you to make a fellow may grow stacey abrams the governor of georgia. amy: oprah winfrey campaigned with abrams last week. road to power is also responsible for racist robocalls targeting african-american florida gubernatorial candidate andrew gillum. students in high schools and colleges across the country are planning to walk out of class this minor 10:00 a.m. to march to the polls as part of the walkout to vote. organized by the youth-led network future coalition, studentsts will gogo to the polo cast ballots and, for those too young to vote, cheer on their older peers. a federal trial is underway in new york city that couould overturn the trump administration's plans to put a citizenship question on the 2020 census. votiting rights activists s feae question will deter r immigrants from participating in the censns leading to a vast undercount in states witith large immigrant communities. this could impact everything from thehe redrawing off congressssional maps to the allocation of fefederal funding. fedederal courts have ordered commerce secretaryry

we want to listen in to stacey abrams. let's listen. >> love you, too. [ crowd chanting ] >> thank you. thank you so much. love you, too. when you chose me as your democratic nominee, i made you a vow. in our georgia, no one would be unseen, no one is unheard and no one is uninspired. [ cheers and applause ] but we know a vow takes effort. it takes commitment to hold truth. reaching out, reaching across is hard work. as i told you then, hard work is in our bones. and we are proving this every day, georgia, with doors knocked, with miles traveled, with prayers prayed to the highest heavens. and tonight, we have closed the gap between yesterday and tomorrow. [ cheers ] but we still have a few more miles to go. hear me clearly, that, too, is an opportunity to show the world who we are. in georgia, civil rights has always been an act of will and a battle for our souls. [ cheers and applause ] and because we have been fighting this fight since our beginnings, we have learned a fundamental truth, democracy only works when we wor

stacey abrams gets that. she understands and she will serve the underserved of the state of georgia. here's the truth. all of us may have been created equal, but if you are woke -- [applause] oprah: if you are woke just a little bit, you've got sense enough to know that everybody is not treated equally. the reality is this. we see injustices big and small all around us every day of our lives. i know it is easy for a lot of people to feel you have no power against those injustices, but this land was made for you and me. this land was made for you and me. [applause] oprah: this land was made for you and me. that is not just a song. that is the truth. and i will tell you that we are not powerless. every single one of us has the same power at the polls. and every single one of us has something that if done in numbers too big to tamper with -- [applause] oprah: cannot be suppressed and cannot be denied. as our civil rights predecessors used to say, we shall not be moved. every single one of us has the same power a

ladies and gentlemen, stacey abrams! [cheers and applause] ♪ >> stacey! stacey! stacey! stacey! stacey! stacey! >> thank you guys so much. >> and you get a vote! and you get a vote! >> all right, spread the word! [cheers and applause] >> great to be here with you. >> everybody gets to vote! >> everybody gets to vote! [cheers] >> all right. we're going to talk for a few minutes and then take a couple questions from you all. could you have ever imagined that two girls from mississippi with the kind of up bringing that we've had would be sitting on this stage? [cheers] >> not at all. i'm still not quite sure i'm sitting here. i'm having a little bit of out of body experience. but it is awesome. >> i love that you had to pull to the side of the road. i love that. i'm intrigued by your story. so many people are intrigued by your story. but more intrigued that you have the idea to dare to take this on. i find in my own experience, when something major is happening, there's something inside you that feels like it's a calling. it's more than just oh i just want to have a career or i jus

he had a message for stacey abrams and her high profile backers. >> i would like to remind stacey and oprah and will ferrell, i'm a big deal too. i have a message for stacey abrams' liberal hollywood friends. this ain't hollywood. this is georgia. >> today, president obama campaigns in georgia for stacey abrams and in florida for andrew gillum and bill nelson. >>> funeral services will be held for the oldest victim of the pittsburgh massacre. rose mallinger. and richard gottfried was also buried yesterday. >> today is the first sabbath which is beginning at sundown. meantime, synagogue massacre suspect robert bowers pleaded not guilty in court on thursday. bowers was arraigned a day after the grand jury indicted him on 44 federal charges. 32 of which carry the death penalty. >>> president trump asking to begin drafting a potential trade deal with china. that is according to bloomberg. it follows a phone call with trump and chinese counterpart xi jinping on thursday. the president said he had a good conversation with president xi. tweeting on many subjects. those discussions are moving

i called stacey abrams and i said stacey this is oprah. you know what she said? she said, girl, let me pull over to the side of the road. >> we're just five days out from exercising our right, rve everybody's right. >> i wouldn't have the composure to salem pull over. i think i would just drive right over. >> the vote is the only way to have a say in how our government is run. here's where we stand. democrats are in a strong position to take back the house. the latest numbers from "the washington post" show dems have a four-point lead in the most competitive house districts around the country. while analysis on 538 shows democrats have about a 15% chance of winning the senate. i will point out, i think 538 gave donald trump about a 13% chance of winning the presidency right before the election so that's what it is. >> take that into account. president trump, he is continuing his campaign blitzes with a critical stop in missouri tonight. the senate candidates there are neck and neck and a veteran democrat, claire mccaskill, loses her seat, it is almost guaranteed

he had a message for stacey abrams and her high profile backers. such as "anchorman" star will ferrell. >> i would like to remind stacey and oprah and will ferrell, i'm kind of a big deal, too. i have a message for stacey abrams' liberal hollywood friends. this ain't hollywood. this is georgia. >> more than 20 million early votes have been cast so far. more than 20 million in georgia. far out pacing the last election. today, president obama campaigns in georgia for stacey abrams and in florida for andrew gillum and bill nelson. >>> steve king erupting over the issue that his comments are in line over the pittsburgh synagogue massacre. he was taking questions at the forum on wednesday. >> you and the shooter both share an ideology -- >> no, don't you do that. do not associate me with that shooter. i knew you were an ambusher when you walked in the room. there's no basis for that. you get no question. you get no answer. you're done. we don't play these games here in iowa. this is over if you don't stop talking. i'm leaving. >> you have given the answ

amy: that is stacey abrams. thousands of votes have yet to be counted. again, if during this count 50% of thedips below vote, there will be a runoff race in december. this is democracy now! when we come back, alexandria ocasio-cortez speaking to democracy now! from queens where she gave her vicictory speech. stay with us. ♪ [music break] amy: less than victory party for alexandria ocasio-cortez. she became the youngest woman in the u.s. house of representatives ever. this is democracy now!, democracynow.org, the war and peace report. i'm amy goodman with juann gonzalez. democrat took the house of representatives. republicans expanded their control of the senate. juan: i wanted to ask katrina vanden heuvel, we have been talking about this now, a split situation in the house and the senate, and you raised the issue of aggressive caucus in the house. unless thereosi, are some major of people, will be the speaker of the house and in the issue becomes to what degree will that leadership of the house allow the progressives to pursue, whether it is subpoenas,

i want to talk about stacey abrams, the democratic nominee in georgia. the way in which potentially her strategy has shifted a bit. the day after she won the primary, i want to play what she said then, followed by one of her ads in the general election and we will talk about the difference. >> democrats cannot win by pretending to be republicans. republicans see through it and democrats see through it. georgia is actually a bluer state than people realize. we have more than enough of those voters to win without compromising our values and pretending to be moderate to conservative to appeal to a certain segment. republican groups from outside georgia spend millions of attacking stacey abrams but republicans in georgia say that doesn't match her record. georgia republicans call stacey abrams a pragmatic leader who engages to find solutions and her view allowed her to reach across the deal to help the governor have a bill and she stopped the largest tax increase in georgia history. both sides agree stacey abrams works to help all of georgia. >> we have enou

stacey abrams and brian kemp just about couldn't be farther apart on the issues. brian kemp is going to cut your taxes. stacey abrams says she is going to raise taxes. brian kemp is going to cut regulations. stacey abrams has promised to grow government in georgia from her words, cradle to career. brian kemp is going to fight for farmers, ranchers, and producers, who were just hit so hard by hurricane michael. she actually said, people shouldn't have to go into agriculture to make a living in georgia. brian kemp is going to stand with the men and women who want to go into agriculture as a career in georgia, and agriculture is going to be bigger and more prosperous than ever. and while brian kemp is getting support from hard-working people all across georgia, we all see the stacey abrams campaign is being bankrolled by hollywood liberals. you heard about it? i heard oprah winfrey is in the state today. will ferrell wasn't here too long ago. i'd like to remind stacy and oprah and will ferrell, i'm kind of a big deal too. [applause] vice pres. pence: and we've got a

she's drawing attention to the race, creating publicity for stacey abrams. i think she's already having an impact in a very tight race. every little bit helps and oprah will help. >> alice, the vice president was in georgia on behalf of brian kemp. he mocked stacey abram for os for being bankrolled by hollywood liberals. >> i heard oprah is in town today. i heard will ferrell was going door to door the other day. well, i'd like to remind stacey and oprah and will ferrell, i'm kind of a big deal, too. did you get that? and i got a message. i got a message for all of stacey abram's liberal hollywood friends. this ain't hollywood. this is georgia. >> all right. so first of all, oprah -- oprah, not mike pence is from the south. second, the president is a celebrity as well. so what do you say to that, are alice. >> it's good to see mike pence and ron burgundy were bothing there campaigning in georgia. don, as you know, i was born and raised in georgia. i know that state very well. oprah hit on a very key issue that resonates with georgia. she says if you don't vo

stacey abrams was the focus of the celebrity visits in georgia last week. a visit from president obama and oprah winfrey. brian camp is getting his visit from none other than president trump. they're going to rally together in macon, georgia. that's a big thing for brian kemp. this is a very, very, very tight race. probably a statistical dead heat as you said. trump weighed in on that race. he spoke out about it last week unprompted. he said that stacey abrams was unqualified to be the governor of georgia. he said something about her past. he never said what he was talking about made her unqualified. went to spellman college and yale law school. we'll see if he has elaboration about that today. brian kemp is in the trump hold on immigration. he brought it up at a town hall that he held in suburban atlanta. he made some very strange comments about stacey abrams, saying that she's very in support of illegal immigrants. let's take a listen. >> she also wants taxpayer benefits, free college for those illegally. my friends, that will bankrupt the citizens. she's

for georgia, and why she wants stacey abrams to win the race. but it was also classic oprah. so, they sat down in plush arm chairs and just kind of had a one on one conversation. they talked about stacey abrams and her personal life and her family and her story. and so i think it was that two-prong approach. so, it wasn't just oprah on the campaign trail, kind of the way that vice-president pence and brian kemp have kind of said, you know, we don't need people coming from here just to say who to vote for. but it was also like that one on one oprah interview that she's known for. >> a.b., in your opinion, does this kind of thing get votes? >> i think that what she did was so counter intuitive, just injecting this positivity into the campaign, saying this is about discernment. we're going to turn our backs away from fear. this is about the privilege of voting, the power of voting. we're all the same at the ballot box, all of us. we live in the best country on earth. we get to do this. just absolutely the opposite of what everyone would expect. obv

she said, hi, stacey, it's oprah. she said, hold on, she was driving and she had to pull over to take the phone call. the audience behind me is just about to be let in for round two. having an intimate conversation on stage and talking about expending medicare, public education and abrams' plans for the state, if she is elected. ali? >> obviously, people at these rallies decided to vote for stacey abrams and you talked to people who said they voted already in early voting. april being there creates a buzz unlike anybody else being there. how does that translate? does that translate through local media coverage and is that how it is going to get the message out to georgians? >> it certainly is the talk of the town and definitely a lot of media folks here to cover it. but her point really, the people in that room have probably already decided they're voting for abrams. oprah's job is to actually get them to go to the polls. we found some people who said i plan to vote next week on election day. probably after hearing fr

keith, what can oprah do for stacey abrams, do you think? >> oprah can do a lot pf take the state of georgia. georgia is 32% african-american, 51% female. oprah has a great deal of resonance with both of those communities because of her popularity, her tv show. and she's out there campaigning, knocking on doors. she's drawing attention to the race, creating publicity for stacey abrams. i think she's already having an impact in a very tight race. any little bit helps, and oprah will help. >> alice, you know, mike pence, the vice president, was in georgia on behalf of brian kemp. he mocked stacey abrams for being bankrolled by hollywood liberals. watch this. >> i heard oprah's in town in tonight. i heard will ferrell was going door to door the other day. well, i'd like to remind stacey and oprah and will ferrell, i'm kind of a big deal too. do you get that? and i got a message. i got a message for all of stacey abrams' liberal hollywood friends. this ain't hollywood. this is georgia. >> all right. okay. first of all, oprah's oprah, not mike pe

what stacey and what andrew are overcoming, i mean that's the excitement. i mean the excitement is the overcoming. it's not even getting excited over the fact that there are ignore ant racists in the country. even if i don't call the president a racist, let's say that. let's say that i tell you that the president traffics in racism and uses it as a currency. >> no. >> let me tell you why i would say that. >> okay. >> i got to get to a break. >> the day before the mississippi primary, the sunday before the mississippi primary, i was in the studio with jake tapper when he said he didn't know who david duke was. you know why he said he didn't know who david duke was? because the mississippi primary was on tuesday, and he didn't want to alienate those voters. so it's a trafficking in rainfall whether you want to call him a racist or not. you're going to have to open up your eyes, steve. >> the republican party could have had marco rubio and nikki haley as their standard bearer, and this would be an entirely different scenario. i think this is what you get two y

we believe in stacey abrams. she is awesome. i even took some pictures with her. i love stacey. i am just rooting for stacey. >> what about oprah? >> i love -- >> don't forget oprah. >> my granddaughter wants oprah to canvass with us this weekend. we're doing a shout-out to oprah to have her to canvass with us. >> good luck with that request. >> thank you. >> as i said, this event starts at 12:30. we expect this line to get a lot longer. inside seats about 600 people. after that, abrams and oprah will head to another suburb of atlanta for a second town hall today to try to get out that vote in the last final days before the election, steph. >> it is exciting across the board. i want to bring mark thompson back. mark, as i'm reading all the names of the people who are going to be down there, this is at a time when the state of georgia has been marred. this particular -- is marred by voter suppression issues. at the same tile, we've seen a huge amount of early voting turnout. take me there. what does stacey abrams' camp think? >> they feel very confident and specifically what stac

[applause] stacey abrams gets that. she gets that, she understands, and she will serve the undeserved underserved of the state of georgia. because you see, here's the truth. all of us may have been created equal, but if you woke... [cheers and applause] if you woke, just a little bit, you've got sense enough to know that everybody is not treated equally. the reality is this -- we see injustices, big and small, all around us. every single day of our lives. i know it's easy for a lot of people to feel that you have no power against those injustices. this is what i am here to tell you -- this land was made for you and me. [cheers and applause] this land was made for you and me! that's not just a song. that's the truth. i will tell you -- i will tell you, we are not powerless. every single one of us. every single one of us has the same power at the polls. every single one of us has something that is done in numbers too they get tamper with. [cheers and applause] to not be suppressed, and cannot be denied. as our civil right

well, i'd like to remind stacey and oprah and w

stacey and her friends will get rid of it. you would not mind someone comes knocking, please, can i have your guns turned over to government? taking your guns away? please, give all of your guns right now. brian's opponent, stacey abrams, is one of the most extreme, far left politicians in the entire country. you know that. >> [booing] pres. trump: she wants to raise your income tax very substantially. she wants to raise your property tax very substantially. right through the roof. she supports a socialist takeover of health care which means you will never be able to see your doctor. just like the vets never got to see their doctor. and just like president obama, i'm going to be very nice, did not tell the truth when he said you can keep your doctor, you can keep your plan. he said it 28 times. and it was not true. >> [booing] you put stacey in their, and you are going to have georgia turn into venezuela. i don't think the people of georgia like that. >> [booing] pres. trump: and stacey abrams, and i spoke to law enforcement,

and latasha, you were at that event today with oprah and stacey abrams. i was watching it on television and i went into it i guess a doubter of oprah as a political force. i'm a big believer after about i don't know seven minutes of watching her. wow. oprah on the political stage is really amazing. how did stacey abrams do in her half of the act on stage together? >> oh, no. they were masterful. it was beautiful i think. what was hard to capture was that the image in the room -- the room was so on fire. there was so much hope, so much high energy in the room. stacey abrams actually on the second half she presented and she was just masterful. i think everything that -- you could hear her brilliance, she was prepared, she was grounded. there was this excellent energy that you saw this interplay between her and oprah. and after she presented they had like a one-on-one conversation with each other. and one of the ihad lights for me is that stacey abrams got to ask oprah a question around what was a hard moment for her. so it's such a really strong interchange

asking you to make my fellow negress, stacey abrams, the governor of georgia. where others see a poor man's aunt jemima i see someone white women can be tricked into voting for, especially the fat ones. and so i promise that every single person who votes for stacey abrams, you're going to get a new car. so you get a car and you get a car and you get a car and you get a car. everybody gets a car! >> that actually was sent out. here's what oprah winfrey posted on instagram tonight. >> i heard people are making racist robocalls in my name against stacey abrams, who i am 100% for in georgia. i just want to say, jesus don't like ugly. uh-uh. and we know what to do about that. vote. tomorrow show up and show out. and vote! >> oprah's response. i mean, what can someone say about the robocall? it's just sickening. >> yeah. and you've seen a few of these in a couple of the races here down in florida and now of course down in georgia. who knows where they're coming from? i think most of the candidates', camp. and desantis have rebuked them >> i think this one they know t

stacey abrams has always said georgia is a purple state. we're starting to see that there's actually a lot more purple in georgia than we initially thought. i mean, keep in mind, stacey abrams is the first gubernatorial candidate to march in an lgbt parade in the history of georgia. already there's some ground breaking energy there, but i think, you know, michael b. jordan has been knocking on doors. >> gotten a lot of star power help. >> this is just to get people excited about november 6th as well. >> mali na abdul also joins me, a professor at california state university there in los angeles. marina thank you so much. president trump also going to be in macon, georgia. president trump is going to be rallying for the republican in that race. brian kemp on sunday. which rally do you think helps more? oprah for abrams or trump for kemp? >> thank you for having me. absolutely oprah for abrams. i think that one of the things that's coming up is we're seeing tremendous enthusiasm around stacey abrams, so we know that it's not just the number o

so how is stacey abrams responding, first of all, to this investigation? >> reporter: yeah, that's right, wolf. the democratic party saying that these are scurrilous claims. they're 100% false. the democratic party did not create, discover, or attempt to take advantage of this deeply vulnerable system used by the secretary of state's office, as they say. this morning, stacey abrams was on "state of the union" with jake tapper and reacted to the news of this investigation. >> i've heard nothing about it. my reaction would be that this is a desperate attempt on the part of my opponent to distract people from the fact that two different federal judges found him derelict in his duties and forced him to allow absentee ballots to be counted. those who are being held captive by the system to be allowed to vote. he's desperate to turn the conversation away from his failures, from his refusal to honor his commitments, and from the fact he's part of a nationwide system of voter suppression that will not work in this election. we're going to outwork him. we're going

i called stacey abrams and i said, stacey, this is oprah. this race has become one of the hottest in the country. surrogates on both sides both have georgia on their minds. but perhaps this should be a big wake—up call to questions about america's future. the next governor gets to influence who counts and two is erased from the picture. a man who's paraplegic, is suing luton airport, after staff failed to provide a wheelchair he could use himself. justin levene says the one he was offered was too rigid and could give him pressure sores. it also meant he'd be less independent, having to rely on others. his own chair had been left behind on a flight, and so he was left he says with no option, but to drag himself through the airport on the floor. our legal correspondent clive coleman has the story. what could have led to this? luton airport, thank you very much. justin levene, a paraplegic, dragging himself through luton airport after his wheelchair was left behind by an airline. aged 20, justin coughed and herniated a disc, and an operation

oprah winfrey campaigning for stacey abrams. president obama also campaigning for stacey abrams and president trump is coming in tomorrow night, sunday night, to campaign with brian kemp. i was out there at president obama's rally last night. a very, very action-packed, exciting night for supporters of stacey abrams. at morehouse university, historically a black college here in atlanta. president obama very, very popular among black voters and stacey abrams really nields them to get over the top in a very, very close race, as you said. and president obama leaned into that. talked about the civil rights movement, the women's movement. how a vote in this race was to honor the people who came before to make voting possible for people who had previously been disenfranchised and a mel pretty well-received by the students and the many people in that gym. he's got a lot of great effort here in georgia to help get those black voters out for stacey abrams. she, too, sounded very, very fired up and feels she's going to put it over the top

if stacey abrams delivers, i think you'll see it in gwinnett county. there could be a ripple effect that could put this republican seat in jeopardy on the house side. >> steve, those are great things to watch. thank you very much for that. >>> there are the two big rations going on in florida. our own joy reid is in tallahassee for more on what's happening in the closing hours there. joy, welcome. joy, there is a really interesting relationship between andrew gillum running for governor at the top of that ticket and bill nelson. it really feels like the newcomer andrew gillum has been pulling up bill nelson in the polling. they've been polling the same. you talk to people from florida, it seems like the energy is gillum is sort of lifting up nelson. what do you think of that? >> yeah, i mean, if you believe the polling down here, gillum has been consistently leading desantis, his republican opponent, whereas bill nelson has kind of flip-flopped with the current governor rick scott and was behind for quite a bit of time, even when gillum was ahead above

we're talking about the fact that stacey abrams got this close. but stacey abrams got in close and she's still running a great race. she had to overcome all the voter suppression. there were people who did not vote till after midnight in fulton county. there were polling places in georgia that did not have. >> pour cords. >> for the voting. there was a place that had one or two voting machines and people were lined up. >> if you have electric machines how do you not give them power cords? >> this is america. bakari did, let me play this exchange from the president's press conference today. >> michael cohen recently said you called black voters stupid. >> that's false. >> only row sale accused you of using the "n" word. >> that's false. >> littejohn said you called him uncle tom. >> i don't know who littejohn is. >> he was on the apprentice. >> i see. i don't know. >> have you made racist remarks. >> no, and i don't use racist remarks. if i did, you would have known about it. i've been hearing there are tapes for years and years there are tapes. nu

polls put stacey abrams at 46.9% and brian kemp at 46.7%. texas congressman beto o'rourke pushed back yesterday on president trump's plans for troops at the u.s./mexico border. >> he wants to send more than 5,000 soldiers to this community and other communities at the border, demeaning the sacrifice of more than 20,000 border patrol agents who do an incredibly effective job of keeping the border secure and our communities safe. i want to make sure that we don't give into that paranoia, that we don't submit to that fear. >> o'rourke made the remarks in brownsville, texas. in the finally d days of the campaign o'rourke has hit the issue in an effort to lock dmoucdown much needed voters in the region. kristen cinema is neck and neck with martha mcsally. >> president trump's lawyer rudy giuliani voiced his support for john james last night, except he got one part wrong, his name. giuliani did it not once, but twice, tweeting, don james is running for senate in michigan. vote for don james. james responded, quote, thanks randy. >>> >>> as we go i

your reaction to stacey abrams' statement and the end results. >> i think stacey abrams was sending just as you're saying a very strong message about a system of suppression that was blocking black people from the ballot and that -- remember, brian kemp, back in 2010, he actually has a long history of doing this, back in 2010 he actually prosecuted leaders, black leaders and black folks who had elected to a school board first time in the history of that county, that blacks were a majority on that school board and he actually took them -- arrested them, charged them with voter fraud for essentially get out the vote registration work four years of ruining peoples' lives, zero convictions. and the purging -- voter purging, the other things we've heard, even his statement that black people vote its harder for republicans to win is all civil rights violation. >> that was directly quoted. chris liu, you worked in the justice department, we looking at something that clear spells out the weakening of the voting rights act was also something that helped set a climate for this because this would h

he was to have the last televised debate with stacey abrams this evening. they were counting on it, but he is instead going to appear with the president. is that the capital in a traditionally red state that the president is a greater asset than another opportunity to represent himself to the voters? >> the president is showing up only in very red areas. i can tell you that i know my former republican colleagues in marginal and swing districts are not inviting the president into their district and not talking about the things like birth right citizenship or caravans. they are talking about the economy. if you are bringing in the president at this late hour, you have a problem. i'm not saying he is going to lose, but he's got a problem and this is a desperate attempt. i don't think this is going to change anybody's vote. the abrams people are going to be with abrams and the kemp people with kemp. this is further muddying the issue. you are in trouble if the need the president at this hour. >> every campaign has been talking about whether it's an asset or an

you talked about stacey abrams. another really big, lot of momentum behind them in the democratic party. right now the race is still uncalled because, as we, as nick laid out earlier, she has not conceded the race. those are two difficult losses for democrats. another one -- ohio. if you talk about ohio, people going into this night thought richard cordray, the former director of the consumer financial protection bureau, had a real opportunity here. mike dewine, state attorney general, ended up winning this race by about four points. here's why that's problematic. you talk about what this means for the future. you're losing places like florida, like ohio, in governors races statewide, that has 2020 implications. more importantly it has redistricting implications. when the new census comes out and they draft maps, this governor has veto power. this is why democrats feel like they had a good night. let's look at the seats that flipped. and you're looking now at seven total if held and where are the seats? this is cruc
