"Bob Menendez, who is a bad hombre. Let me tell you what, this guy, he has been around for 11 years lying and stealing and being deceitful. Oh my goodness. Bob Menendez has been indicted by the Department of Justice, so let's just focus on the facts here. First of all, Bob Menendez is no small cookie. He's no small fish. This is not just it's not like George Santos type stuff. He is the chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee in the U.S. Senate. This guy has a lot of power. He is in classified briefings all the time. He is in skiffs where highly sensitive classified information and material is being shared. Bob Menendez is as powerful as Joe Biden once was in the U.S. Senate. So just remember that for a second. Bob Menendez is getting the same briefings that Joe Biden would once get when he was a senator from Delaware. So Bob Menendez is an outright crook. And look, we have a lot of fans from New Jersey, but I just have to lay it on you guys. New Jersey has a specialty in producing politicians that embezzle and are corrupt and are criminals. I'm not saying everyone from the Garden State is like that, but boy, he really is continuing the time old tradition. And look, being from Chicago, I know a criminal when I see one. And Bob Menendez, he is in the tradition, the time honored tradition. Thank you. Of soprano. Corzine and many others. So first of all, Menendez Menendez got off on a hung jury just a couple of years ago. It was like a Medicare reimbursement thing for a donor that was a doctor. It was a little confusing, didn't look good for him. And he got off. You would think that that would scare him into stopping doing suspicious activities that he doesn't know any different. He doesn't know how to operate ethically because Democrats get lulled into sleep. Democrats believe they're untouchable. So they do not operate with the same sort of code of ethics, the same sort of, let's just say, atmospherics that Republicans or conservatives sometimes do. Now, I'm not saying that Republicans commit less crimes than Democrats. I'm saying that Democrats get away with their crimes. So creates a culture, the same culture that made Joe Biden so empowered to get on conference call after conference call with his son selling us out to foreign powers. So when Democrats think they're above the law and that they run the regime, they're going to be more empowered to accept luxury vehicles and gold bars from foreign countries. You would think that Bob Menendez would be a little bit more powerful, a little bit more careful, a little bit more precise. Everybody knows that you don't take the gold bars. You have your coke head addicted son take the gold bars and then give you 10 percent for the big guy. Come on, Bob Menendez. You didn't get the memo. Now, Bob Menendez allegedly, based on the DOJ indictment, got paid by Egypt and other foreign powers and not just, you know, hey, your your mom, your mom is on some sort of corporate board or that your wife is going to go give some speech. No, they just give him gold bars, kilos of gold bars. Play cut one fifty five. Here's the indictment against Bob Menendez, one of the leading Democrats in the U.S. Senate. Play cut one fifty five. The indictment alleges that Senator Menendez used his power and influence, including his leadership role on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, to benefit the government of Egypt in various ways. Among other actions, Senator Menendez allegedly provided sensitive, nonpublic U.S. government information to Egyptian officials and otherwise took steps to secretly aid the government of Egypt. We also allege that Senator Menendez improperly pressured a senior official at the U.S. Department of Agriculture to protect a lucrative monopoly that the government of Egypt had awarded to Hana. A lucrative monopoly that Hana then used to fund certain bribe payments, bribery, treason. Now, we wouldn't know anything about that. You could replace Menendez with Biden and Egypt with Ukraine, and it's exactly what Joe Biden did. But let's talk about what happened. What's really going on here? First of all, I would be remiss to not just say, you know what? Finally, a scumbag Democrat is having a bad day. I'll be honest, I'm not supposed to take delight and rejoice in the suffering of my enemies. Well, I'm doing that because I need it. It's cathartic. It's helpful. It's therapeutic. I hope you feel the same that finally one of these scumbags that is selling on our country is having a bad Friday morning. Bob Menendez is not laughing his way to the bank. But Menendez is getting booked, fingerprinted, mugshot, and he has to meet with lawyers for the next couple of weeks. But let's talk about what's really going on here before we take victory lap after victory lap after victory lap. It's important to understand. The way that the fourth branch of government operates is with intentionality, there are no mistakes. There are no indictments without the right hand knowing what the left hand is doing. So the first most obvious takeaway is important. They're doing this to create the appearance of impartiality so that they can continue their jihad against Donald Trump. So that under oath, they could say, well, as you can see, we have active indictments against Menendez and Hunter Biden, which gives us a mandate to go after Bannon and Donald Trump and Douglas Mackey, et cetera, et cetera. So it is the appearance of impartiality. And they do this low hanging fruit indictment, which, by the way, you better believe that Bob Menendez deserves this, this is not some sort of concoction, this is not a reach. Now, when you read the indictment, it also demoralizes me a little bit. Because when the FBI, when the Department of Justice wants to do their job, they actually do a pretty good job. You read the indictment and by pretty good job, I mean, it's thorough, Bob Menendez does not stand a chance against the evidence they have here. Bob Menendez, the day after he comes back from Egypt, they also have the gold bars. He Googles how much is a kilo of gold worth the day after he comes back from Egypt. So they did a rather forensically thorough job. But that's not what's going on here. OK, this is all surface level stuff. It's important. We've got to mention it. There's something much deeper happening here, and it involves the 30th of September. But before we do that, I just want to play the CNN tape because it's important. He is the chair of the Senate Foreign Intelligence Intelligence Committee. He is more powerful than the junior senator from New Jersey, Cory Booker. He is more powerful than Raphael Warnock and John Ossoff. He's more powerful than Mark Kelly. This is one of the big dogs of the Senate. Play cut one forty five breaking news that will have ripple effects in Washington and beyond. New Jersey Democratic Senator Bob Menendez, who is the chair of the House Foreign Relations Committee, he's being charged with corruption related charges for the second time in 10 years. He was charged indicted before and there was a hung jury and now he's being charged again for something completely different. You only act that way if, number one, you really have sociopathic tendencies like you got you got a big problem, right? The second is you just think you're untouchable.

And it's a Bloomberg and JIT stem report. Amy. All right, thank you, Karen. It is 6 44 on Wall Street and we continue to follow the news out of Georgia and its impact on Capitol Hill, Democrats gaining outright control of the Senate. Raphael Warnock won the runoff election in Georgia defeating Trump backed Republican challenger Herschel Walker 51.4% to 48.6%. Now joining us now, Bloomberg senior Washington correspondent and host of sound on Joe Matthew, and Joe just want to make it clear you're there. You are on the ground in Georgia. I'm curious what did you see particularly on election day and reaction to the results overnight, particularly as far as voter engagement, turnout division, what are you seeing? Well, that's a big question. I'll tell you the lines died out yesterday morning and it looked like a very quiet afternoon and it really reinforced the idea that the early vote was a huge part of this that Rafael Warnock had mobilized his voters to get out over the course of two weeks to set a record in early voting that really made yesterday apparently a little bit less of an important day for him a very important one though for Herschel Walker. At the same time, we say that you look at the numbers this morning here, Rafael Warnock beat Herschel Walker by 37,000 votes in the general, he beat him by almost a 100,000 votes this time around. 97,000. And it does make you think about what took place over the last four weeks. In terms of the narrative around this campaign and what it would have looked like if there was a different candidate on the Republican side and more specifically one not picked by Donald Trump. It's still going to be a divided government. I'm just looking ahead to when everybody is sworn in and seat at Republicans with the majority in the House. Democrats now have a majority in the Senate. And it's easy to say that that just means gridlock. They may find a way to cooperate, but is there a path forward that they are able to get more things done than just the basics? I mean, they can hardly agree on a budget now. So I'm wondering if this is it. Yeah. The thing is the Senate can do a lot on its own aiming. We need to remember this is the body that handles nominations. This is the body that approves judges that confirms nominees for the administration's cabinet. That extra seat was really something that Democrats were taking seriously here. They don't have to have a power sharing agreement now with Republicans they control the committees and they can clear judges and nominees on their own with a little bit of breathing room. With regard to budgeting, though, in other legislative issues, think of how many times last year we talked about Joe Manchin, almost as often kyrsten sinema. That's going to be a little bit less the case now. Joe Manchin is not exactly going to be the kingmaker that he once was with an extra seat. And knowing that Kevin McCarthy likely to be speaker will have just as thin a margin as Nancy Pelosi had in the house. You could follow a path of gridlock, but you could also see these lawmakers being forced to work together and they're going to have an opportunity to do that first on defense spending. Wait, now a sidebar. Is it a fade accompli that he is going to be House speaker? That's a great question. He doesn't have the votes now, and a lot of folks say, look, maybe Steve scalise could make an interesting move here, come from behind. But the fact is, you got to get the two 18 and at the moment, he's got at least 5 Republicans on the record who say no. I'm not aware of 5 Democrats who are going to say yes. So this could go to multiple rounds. The thing about this is though, other than the aforementioned Steve scalise, who comes up in these conversations, there isn't really a viable candidate running against him. Congressman Andy Biggs got 30 votes inside the Republican caucus when this came to a head a couple of weeks ago, but when it goes to the floor, it's unlikely that someone else will be able to stand up against Kevin McCarthy and eventually with some pain involved, he will likely get that gavel. Now, I want to change the path just for one minute. We had talked about how this is another defeat for a Trump supported candidate on the national stage. It was not a good day for Donald Trump. Two of his companies were found guilty of criminal tax fraud. Not him, just the companies. But what does that mean for the man who was once president and who wants to

"Of the Senate, now that Raphael Warnock has won the runoff election in Georgia, defeating Trump backed Republican challenger Herschel Walker 51.4% to 48.6%. Now earlier this hour we heard from Terry Haines of pangea policy, who believes that this could be the final straw for the former president in the Republican Party. The task for the Republican Party over the past two years has been, how do we get China? How do we get past this particular speed bump? And that process, I think, has greatly accelerated since the since the midterms. But between the midterm results, Trump's tone deaf announcement and then the whole business about suspending the constitution, which is I really think is beyond the pale for a great number of the party leaders. They are going to look now to try to make sure you spend out. And joining us now to talk about what last night's Georgia runoff means for Democrats and for the GOP Bloomberg senior Washington correspondent and host of sound on Joe Matthew Joe, you heard Terry they're talking about that this could mean the end of Donald Trump and the GOP. What say you? Well, it's difficult for me to weigh in on that one. Look, just like you, Amy, I covered the access Hollywood tapes. We've seen Donald Trump's political career called dead so many times we can't count it, but Republicans are waking up angry this morning. Republicans went to bed angry last night. This was a wider margin than what we saw in. This had been a different candidate potentially. This is the conversation here. A different candidate without Donald Trump's fingerprints. This could be a Republican seat this morning. There were moments last night when this was so close, people didn't know exactly how this was going to turn out. And it really speaks to all of the outside factors, candidate quality included in this race in Georgia. Now, every statewide race in Georgia in the midterms went for the Republicans. All of them did except for this one, it was a red wave in Georgia except this one. What does that say? I think it just reflects on what we just said. Donald Trump is not popular. Hated relationship here and it's the reason why Brian Kemp, the Republican governor in Georgia, did not endorse or campaign with Herschel Walker during the midterm cycle here during the weeks leading up to the general election. So look, if you Had. a different candidate without Donald Trump, again, it could be a different conversation this morning. Raphael Warnock ran a strong campaign, but my goodness, he was clearly beatable under certain circumstances, at least this is how Republican strategists look at it this morning. Now, all of this is happening as two of Donald Trump's companies were found guilty of criminal tax brought. I'm shifting gears just a second getting right back to politics, but I want to know what that might mean for the man who was once president and he's running again. He wants to be president again and his companies are facing these criminal charges. I think that though he was not personally, you know, he's running far away from this suggesting that the wool was pulled over his eyes or something to this extent, but that he had nothing to do with it. Some of the other instances, though, yesterday, could have a much greater impact, like the special counsel, sending out subpoenas to states like Michigan, and Wisconsin, to see all ending in the weeks leading up to and following the 2020 election campaign, you've got so many legal issues facing Donald Trump right now that I'm not sure his company is actually the worst one. Okay, let's shift gears back then to politics. We talked a little bit about the Trump effect and whether this might mean other candidates are going to start distancing themselves now. What would it take for candidates to be able to say, you know, you don't have to campaign for me. And the reason I ask is because when we were watching him campaign for Herschel Walker, he didn't show up. He wasn't there in person. He did it by phone. He was sort of trying to split the difference there so that he didn't take the blame for the midterm elections. And at the same time, he was able to throw his support behind the candidate that he recruited. Right, well, we've seen this happen repeatedly with Donald Trump. Ask Glenn youngkin in Virginia. It was the same exact deal. It was a tele rally. The night before the election, and they never were seen on stage together. That was very. When you're talking about so called Trump candidates. In many cases, they were hand selected by Trump and would not be in the race without Trump. You could call Herschel Walker one of those candidates. And so in that case, they kind of owe their entire situation to Donald Trump, so it's a little difficult to tell him not to come. This will. 24 election. We get into the new year and the 24 election starts to take hold a bit. Joe Biden is going to announce his intentions were told after the holidays. It is widely expected that he is going to run for reelection, and then you'll see Donald Trump in true color, I suspect in the beginning of the new year, whether candidates want him on the stump, we'll see about it. Let's talk a little bit about what's going on with the race itself. You and I had talked earlier about getting those results. And we kind of figured we wouldn't be seeing these results to this race until later this week. We got those results much sooner than expected. Does that tell you anything? Really was a major factor in this campaign. I spoke with Brad raffensperger. Yesterday, right before the polls closed, he joined us on sound on the Secretary of State of Georgia. And starting at 7 a.m., they were beginning to tabulate early voting results by 7 p.m. they had all of the counties involved. It's just kind of the way this one worked out in a fairly cut and dry fashion. You had a head start counting early ballots, and then as you saw Herschel Walker actually take the lead at one point last evening, then it was the northern suburbs of Atlanta that finished their county. Fulton county, Cobb county and others, where it was an overwhelming result for Raphael Warnock and their networks, The Associated Press took that moment to call the race for him. They're still technically counting ballots. But when these projections go into place, you know, they're looking at a lot of different mathematical paths here. And he just Herschel Walker by the end of the evening didn't have one. All right, Bloomberg senior Washington go ahead. Sorry, Joe. No, Amy, it's all yours. All right, thank you.

"That we would agree that this is descriptive representation, but there are probably about 90% of Georgia black voters who would argue that it's not substantive representation because they don't expect Herschel Walker to champion their issues in the way that they would want them to be championed. One last one if I could professor Gillespie because obviously former president Trump has something of a history with politics in Georgia, not all it has always worked out his way, whether it was the last runoff election we had, whether it was governor Kemp this time, and what he had tried to unseat him, and now we'll find out, works out with Raphael Warnock and Herschel Walker. What is the future of influence for Donald Trump in Georgia or can we say? So, I mean, I think in general, we are going to look at Donald Trump's influence overall and whether or not key national Republicans are willing to stand up to him and publicly disagree with him when he makes decisions that they disagree with or he says things that are unconstitutional, you know, like he suggested this weekend on truth social. I think the larger issue on the lesson of 2022 is that Donald Trump's strategy for picking candidates wasn't actually based in anything empirical. He chose candidates based on loyalty, he chose candidates based on telegenic and popularity, not necessarily on substance and where these candidates were weak. They faltered, where these candidates were extreme. There was pushback. And so I think as a result of this, we want to see how long Republicans sustain their willingness to stand up to Donald Trump when he says things to them that are sort of textbook, nonsensical. Okay, professor, it's always great to have you. This has been very, very helpful. That's Andrew Gillespie, Professor of political science at Emory university. Still to come, we're going to get to

You can read more about those stories at Bloomberg dot com or on the Bloomberg terminal. But the top political story this morning, it is decision day in Georgia between Raphael Warnock and Herschel Walker in the Senate runoff. We're joined live this morning from Atlanta. By Bloomberg, Washington correspondent and host of sound odd, Joe Matthew. Joe, good morning. Good morning. Run off races are turning into a thing in Georgia. Yeah, were they really like to do that? And by the way, this will not lead to another runoff, no matter what happens, but it could lead to a recount. So think about that right now. This is the 5th time that Raphael Warnock has run for this seat. I'm not sure if he's going to win it, but if this is within a half percentage point as it may well, then it triggers a recount. So Georgia might have to wait a minute and it's all going to come down to turnout today and I'm going to tell you Nathan, it's just been pouring its foggy, it's raw out. It's not a good day to get people to stand outside and line up to go to the polls, which is going to be a real challenge for Herschel Walker seeing record early voting in this race that is likely to favor Raphael Warnock, the walker campaign is doing everything it can to get people out on election day itself. Well, that is a really interesting point, Joe, because a lot of the reports we've been hearing about how the early vote has gone for people who have shown up at those early polling places, they've been facing long lines as well. That's true. A lot of this, you know, when we say early voting, this includes in person early voting. And we saw nearly 2 million people get out early and ahead following the advice of the Warnock campaign, obviously the whole idea, the concept of early voting is something that Republicans have been a little bit slow to come around on, but have been embracing it lately. And with Brian Kemp, now backing Herschel Walker, the governor here in the state. That's the one thing that's a little bit different than what we saw in the general election. It would be a little bit difficult to quantify because he didn't rehearsal walker didn't have coattails in this runoff election. The way he may have in the first round, but also Brian Kemp has put his machinery in his money behind Herschel Walker this time, which he did not do the first time around. So it's not exactly the same race and it's being conducted in a vacuum which really changes a lot of the contours of the election. Interesting point as well because we saw some of the last ads in this race where featuring Brian Kemp with that endorsement of Herschel Walker. We've also got a Trump factor to consider as well, don't we because I've been hearing that the former president held a tele rally for Herschel Walker last night. Do you see that having any impact? It's hard to say, look, again, it's about getting people to turn out if Donald Trump is holding a teller rally, which he did last night. He did this for Glenn youngkin the night before the election in Virginia as well. Gives him a chance to take credit for a win. But you know, it's not like people are lining up out of the blue to go to this tele rally. Those are very carefully curated lists of supporters. Trump supporters in this particular case. So he's singing to the choir. Whether that gets these particular voters to bring their friends or family or motivate others to get to the polls as the question. And we've also seen just how important Democrats see this race as being given all the spending they've put behind the Rafael Warnock campaign. It's something like more than two to one advantage in terms of the spending output by Democrats in this race. That's true. I think we even three to one. Wow. Might be the statistic here. And look, we've seen Raphael Warnock. And of course, he's an incumbent. He's done this a lot of times. This is Herschel Walker's first outing. But he's been doing Warnock multiple events a day, multiple media interviews. Last night, we were at a brewery with senator Warnock. That was the way he closed the final message of his campaign with rapper jeezy. Herschel Walker meantime was going to went to a gun store and took his bus up around the northern reaches of the state in rural areas where he's trying to pick off voters, those 200,000 voters who voted for Brian Kemp the first time around at last month, but did not vote for Herschel Walker. That ticket splitting is a big deal. Herschel Walker needs to bring them in if he's going to win. Raphael Warnock needs to keep them home if he wants to keep his job the same. Obviously you're in Atlanta, you're going to be covering this all day into tomorrow hosting a special edition of sound on Georgia's capital. What are you going to be looking for? Who are you going to be talking to as part of your coverage? You know, actually we're looking forward to a conversation with the Secretary of State, Brad raffensperger, who is, of course, a pretty well-known president. Yeah, that's right. Based on the perfect phone call or one of those perfect phone calls, but he's got a big job today and he's no stranger to these runoffs he did it two years ago. He was doing it again today.

"And he's got to get him to turn out in huge numbers. If he's going to be competitive here, the state is split. And it tilts Republican. So if he could actually make common cause in the last 12 hours with these voters, he can get a surge on voting tomorrow, but that's about all that he's got left. There's no other issue that's going to drive people to the polls that hasn't already been discussed. Well, okay, so that said, Raphael Warnock won the first time around here. I have to be careful that that election in November by 37,000 votes. We know 200,000 people split the ticket and did not vote for Herschel Walker, those who voted for Brian Kemp did not vote for Herschel Walker. Rick, how does that math come together tomorrow? Well, I mean, that's the target group that you just described. The Brian Kemp voters who didn't vote for Herschel Walker. And they know exactly who they are. By now, they've analyzed the voter list. They've been looking over it for the last 30 days. They've been making phone calls and doing door knocks. And as I understand it, Brian Kemp's organization on the ground has stayed fully employed and are trying to get the vote out. If there is a big cut of that 200,000 and at least probably another 40,000 that would overcome a natural advantage that Warnock has, then the winner here is not just going to be Mitch McConnell, but it's going to be Brian Kemp. So this is camp's machine versus the Abrams machine Genie. It absolutely is. And you know, if Kim could pull this out on behalf of walker, that is big bona fides for Kemp if he can do it. Boy, fascinating. We're just getting started here with Rick and Jeannie and a lot more to follow on our first day on the ground here in Atlanta, the day before the runoff will be here through Wednesday.

"To call, and George's race is headed for a runoff. Georgia senator Raphael Warnock kicked off his runoff campaign in Atlanta today, arguing that the election is about morality. I need you to show up and vote because the vote is a kind of prayer. For the world we desire for ourselves. And for our children. Control of the Senate may come down to that runoff in Georgia. Democrats fear that Republican Senate control would slow the pace of Biden's judicial appointment numbers, particularly for appellate nominees. The last time Republicans were in control of the Senate under a democratic president was during the Obama administration and just two circuit court nominees in 18 district court nominees were confirmed in two years, so progressives have pushed Senate Democrats to continue processing Biden's judicial nominations, even if results of the midterms aren't known when lawmakers resume work on November 14th, and according to Bloomberg sources, majority leader Chuck Schumer is preparing to focus on federal judicial nominees rather than the annual defense authorization bill when the Senate returns for its lame duck session next week. Schumer scheduled a vote to end debate on a district court nominee the night the Senate returns and the judiciary committee scheduled a nominations hearing the following day. As it stands now, 12 circuit and 45 district nominees await action, of those 5 circuit in 16 district nominees are ready to be brought up for the test vote that precedes a confirmation vote, but right now there are 119 current or expected vacancies in the federal courts that includes four future current circuit court vacancies without appending nominee for seats in the 5th, fourth first and 7th circuits. White House press secretary karine Jean Pierre, included confirming the president's judicial nominations in a list of the administration's priorities for the lame duck. Other priorities were passing legislation on marriage equality, electoral reform and the defense authorization bill. Coming up next on the Bloomberg law show. The Supreme Court's conservative justices appear split on a Native American adoption law. That law the Indian child welfare act which gives preference to Native Americans in adopting and fostering American Indian children was passed in 1978 to rectify our history in which hundreds of thousands of Native American children were removed from their homes and placed in institutions or with families who had no ties to their tribes. Here's Jones Elena Kagan. Congress is very clear in this statute that it thinks that this statute is critical to the continuing existence of the tribe as a political entity. And that's, in fact, one of the reasons it passes this statute is the political entity is itself being threatened because of the way decisions on the placement of children are being made.

Democrats are keeping the balance of power in the House closer than anticipated as for the Senate it might be a while longer before the results are clear, we do know Democrat Jon fetterman defeated Trump backed mehmet Oz for the Senate seat from Pennsylvania with 50% of the vote, Oz got 47.6%. I never expected that we were going to turn these red counties blue, but we did what we needed to do. Georgia may be headed for a runoff Democrat Raphael Warnock with a slight edge over Trump backed Herschel Walker 49.4% to 48.6%, and the count was delayed in Arizona after tabulation machines went down. Democrat Mark Kelly currently holds a lead over Republican Blake masters 56 to 41% and Nevada is expected to go on call until later in the week because of delays from counting mail in ballots. In Washington, I'm Amy Morris Bloomberg daybreak. All right, Amy, thank you while taking a look at some other key Senate races. Trump back Republican JD fans defeated Democrat Tim Ryan for Ohio Senate he won with 53% of the vote. New Hampshire Democrat Maggie Hassan beat Republican Don baldock for the state's open Senate seat with 54% of the vote. Colorado Democrat Michael Bennett got 55% of the vote to keep his Senate seat of Republican Joe odea. And North Carolina Republican ten bud edged out cherry Beasley with nearly 51% of votes. Meantime, in Wisconsin, the race too close to call, Republican senator Ron Johnson leads Democrat Mandela Barnes 50.6% to 49.4%. That's what just under 99% of the vote counted. And we have results from a handful of races for governor Karen. Let's begin in New York where Democrat Kathy hochul has defeated Republican Lee zeldin, Bloomberg's Michael Barr continues our election team coverage live in New York, Michael. Nathan, thank you very much. Democrat Kathy hochul has become the first woman elected New York governor winning the office outright. Hulk holt took over in 2021 when former governor Andrew Cuomo resigned, hulk will defeated Lee zeldin, who ran a campaign focused on fear of violent crime. She thanked supporters last night. I want to speak directly to New Yorkers. Tonight, you may your voices heard loud and clear. Hoku got nearly 53% with Zelda receiving just over 47%. However, Zelda is not conceding. In other races called by AP for the U.S. Senate Charles Schumer beat Republican challenger Joe pinion 56% to 43% in Connecticut incumbent democratic governor Ned Lamont. Pete Republican challenger Robert stepanovsky, 55% to 44%. U.S. senator Richard blumenthal won his reelection over Republican lior at levy with 56%. In New York, Michael Barr Bloomberg daybreak. Karen, Nathan. All right, Michael, thank you all the pair of governors who have eyes on The White House for victorious last night, Republican Ron DeSantis in Florida and Democrat Gavin Newsom in California, both handily won reelection. Desantis beat democratic challenger at Charlie Crist, garnering 60% of the vote in Florida. I believe the survival of the American experiment requires a revival of true American principles. Florida has proved that it can be done. That victory speech from desantis did not mention Donald Trump or speculation that he will run for president. In California, Newsom easily defeated his Republican challenger Brian Dali with almost 60% of the vote. Overall Karen, there were 36 races for governor across the country. Let's get more on those highlights now live with Bloomberg's John Tucker. Good morning John. Nathan Democrats pulled out wins and some key states in Michigan Democrat Gretchen Whitmer defeated Republican Tudor Dixon with 53% of the vote. Democrat Josh Shapiro won in Pennsylvania, beating Republican Doug master Rihanna with 55% of the vote Wisconsin incumbent democratic governor Tony amber has got 51% of votes to win over Republican Tim Michaels.

Karen and Nathan. Sorry, John, thanks. Well, overall it was a historic night at the polls, more women than ever ran for governor, more black women ran for Congress and more LGBTQ people vied for a spot in the House or Senate. As you mentioned before, Kathy hochul became the first woman elected governor in New York, and Massachusetts Maura Haley will be the first woman elected to serve as the state's governor. Democrat westmore will be Maryland's first black governor and Republican Sarah Huckabee Sanders has become the first woman elected to serve as governor of Arkansas.

"Here. He pulls the bat you saw him quite a bit earlier reach into the jacket, he very slowly pulled out the batch and apparently he does say now in this interview he carries it with him everywhere he goes. He did not, however, prove to us that it was an actual badge that allowed him to arrest, give him a resting rights that he was in fact a trained police officer as had been alleged. Where are you on props at debates? Well, props are always a controversial thing. And I'd say what I noticed about this debate wasn't the prop itself because you kind of hoped and realized he was going to show the bad. He was going to whip out that bad some point. But the incredible reaction by the moderator. I mean, his oh my God, over the top, people will be talking about her for a long time. A school Mars got nothing on her. She was not going to let him show his badge. And that became part of this show. And that's the unfortunate part about a lot of these debates is the moderator kind of gets in the way of the message. And becomes the message. And I think that's the case here. Look, every time he takes that badge out, he's talking about how much he loves police. And that is a good campaign tactic. And until somebody, you know, but in person. It takes it away. Look, I mean, from what I can tell, the conversation says he's had with interviews like today. He's not looking to pretend to be a cop. He's looking to help the cops anyway, he can, and when they share a Johnson county, was asked about it. He says, yeah, we look forward to him being helpful to us any time he wants to be. He's got it covered. He's not trying to be a copy. He's a cop wannabe and how many people sit around hopeful that there are people who are willing to help the cops. I'm not explaining this away. It's a crazy thing that happened. But it's probably crazy. And helpful to him, right? I'm so crazy. I love cops. Look, I guess did it help Elvis Presley Genie? I'm not sure, but I want to bring you back into the debate, this one moment because everyone got including myself distracted by the badge. Listen to what senator Warnock actually says though it's not just that you were a police officer. There's more. Let me go back to the actual moment in that debate. One thing I have not done, I've never pretended to be a police officer. I got that. All right, hold on. And I've never I've never threatened a shootout with the police. What? How could nobody followed up on that? A Genie that was an AP story from last February that in his past he in fact threatened a shootout with police. That doesn't seem to sort of coalesce with the rest of the message here. Yeah, and you know, I think the reason is just what you said prior, which is people were distracted by the badge, and you know, I was not surprised at all that he pulled that out because he does not have a message and as Raphael Warnock was talking about today more effectively than quite frankly Friday night because I watched the debate, he is not a serious candidate for the U.S. Senate, and when you're not a serious candidate, you must distract by visuals, and he did that fairly effectively for somebody in their first debate because what do people think about them? They're thinking about an issue that helps Republicans crying. What aren't they talking about? His issues with his children, his paying for abortions, other issues involving abortion. His stance on issues like insulin and prescription drugs and all of those serious topics. So it did work effectively. Unfortunately, it took over the debate and Raphael Warnock did not perform at the debate to the level he probably wishes he did. He did better on Sunday Night, but of course walker wasn't there at the second debate. There was an empty chair last night, but I'll tell you what the abortion issue did come up, of course, and let's just let this air out for one second. Herschel Walker on abortion at the debate. I believe in life. And I tell people this, Georgia is a state that respects life, and I'll be a center that protects life. And I say, that was a lie, and I'm not baking down. Referring, of course, to this whole scandal in which he has been denying that he encouraged and former girlfriend and paid for an abortion woman who apparently fathered or did actually give birth to another child of his. But this came up in this same NBC interview, Rick. I hate God, do I have to do all this background every time? It's brutal. NBC, she's got a picture of the check. And they talk this out. I have no idea what that can be for. Is that your signature? It could be. And it doesn't matter whether it's my signature or not. You know what I'm gonna check out written we don't want any names on. Yes, that's my check. You didn't have a job then, because you have a job. Any questions, whether she had a job at the time. So we just the check has been acknowledged here, Rick. Whether the motivation was there, I adore the timing or what he knew the check was going for. But does this not matter any longer? That would have been a huge development a week ago. Yeah, I think it would have been a huge development. It was a huge development a week ago, you know, just off the information we had in the denials that he gave. And I was following Genie on her analysis that he's going to use this prop and distract everybody until he then does an interview and starts talking about abortion again. If he just shut up and go back to Johnson county and let the sheriff lock him up for the next three weeks, he'll be a senator. I mean, it's unbelievable. That he has this desire to try to nationalize the race beyond what it's already being. I mean, why do you give a national interview for a time when you're trying to run for senator and try to localize the election? Look, I mean, he is not a normal candidate for the United States Senate. And he doesn't have the experience. He's doing this by rote. And I'm sure his advisers are making it up as they go along because I've got a unique candidate who is really hard to manage. And I don't think this is the last we're

And Blake masters, the nominee in Arizona. None of those unexpected, the Taylor, the Kerry Lake Karen Robson race is a dead heat statistically, and the polls have that completely wrong again. Do not read the polls. It's sort of like, I know Herschel's of Raphael Warnock. And I know the polls show that he's not. And I know that Doctor Oz is ahead of John fetterman, the polls show he's way behind. He's not. It's just that they don't know how to pull anymore and they won't admit it and they continue to use it because the media is left wing. And they don't want to make it obvious.

While trying to get my voice because that late night following results last night until I finally couldn't see any way to figure out who was going to win in Arizona's governor race. Eric, Eric Schmidt had won the Missouri race fairly early, as had tutor Dixon the Michigan race. There are four big races last night. Michigan governor, and my guy lost, I wanted Kevin rinky, but I kind of knew that tutor Dickson was going to win when Donald Trump endorsed her. I really mattered the most to me with Eric Schmidt winning an Missouri. I've got to tell you, we have a safe red seat there, a safe, deep red state that could have been thrown away and we didn't throw it away 'cause they nominated the strongest, very competent candidate when the show me state nominated Eric Schmidt.

And you know who has a podcast in who is a somebody who's been a real voice on issues equity all summer and beyond you know well into the past tradition in a history of ad. I think that's important because it means that the the voice of anti black lives matter is now being replaced by someone who can fully embody the spirit and direction of the wnba. I could not agree more and the power that the wnba has had. I mean we talk about when we talk about you know leading the movement. The black lives matter movement. We talk so often about the nfl or the nba. But really the wnba. And we've said this before. I mean they started this movement.

Senator a player in this when they all wore those warnock shirts i think at that point he was voting. Nine percents Who pulling at nine voting. He was polling at nine percent And he wound up winning. And i think that the power that these women have in the way that they have used their platform for good and for inclusion and equity and making the world. A better place is something. That is such a tonic. To see it what we've gone through the past four years so i i'm thrilled to see it. I'm glad kelly law is out of the wnba.

I mean, Asaf, This is a guy who what is Why should Jonah's off be a United States? Senator? What exactly is he done? He's done a little bit of staff work for somebody else. In the house, and he's rich because of who Dad is. Well, that's not particularly impressive. But the left loves this guy. So that tells you a lot, doesn't it? Then you have Mr Mr Raphael Warnock, The Reverend Raphael Warnock. Who is a doctrinaire leftist. Who says what he needs to say, in order to appeal to his favorite constituencies. And what would he do? Well, they'll do whatever the Democrat left wants them to. It's not even really clear. In any way what they would push for on their own. They're going to be functionaries, largely if they win. In the Democrat machine, but that's all they have to be. They just have to go along with it.

Born December 27th 1944 And the love story is been in the public for years between Sandy and Ben. They? You know, there's a certain couples when you look at them. You couldn't tell. They adore each other, and this is one of them. A friend of the family, Dennis Gilbert says that Sandy weighed in on everything from what to eat. To Wendell walk away from the microphone for years. Whenever Vin was asked whether he was going to come back for another season, he always said that he needed the blessing of Sandy as he referred to her in public. Mrs Scully. That's how he always said that right? And he said back in 2000, and she's so selfless that she'll probably say whatever you feel you should do will do. Well, she says he gave me a lot of power in the press. But she said, How can I tell someone? How can I tell him whether he should or shouldn't do what he truly loves? When it comes to broadcasting watching the television broadcast, especially even when Vin was not doing the TV broadcast when he was on radio, they would always I mean it was, it was ubiquitous to see the Vin Scully shot. There's been in the booth, calling the game and their sandy sitting behind him watching the game over his shoulder. Through much of his career. She was to stay at home parent helping to raise their several Children. She served as a chairwoman for a Charity Share Inc. Which helps abused and disabled Children. They said that she is mostly stayed out of the limelight except for those shots when you'd see her at Dodger Stadium, but yes, she has been a powerful force on decisions. Runs say he would never make any decision without her. His world revolves around her and hers around him. But she was very clear to say a few years back when Vin decided to finally hang up the headphones and the retire from calling the games That it was entirely his decision to step away. And at the time there was a New York Times article that she she gave an interview for And she said he's going to be 89 in November. This would this would have been 2016. He was going to be 89 in November. His Children are in their forties and fifties. There's a time to fold him. He came to the conclusion that he's done what he could do. And if you remember those just absolutely glorious. Wonderful. Commemorations. I suppose Vin Scully's career that they did at Dodger Stadium. They eventually did one in San Francisco also because I think those were the actual last games that he called, was up in San Francisco. But that you know, late September 2016. She's the one who escorts him out onto the field for the big, um, the honoring of this guy who'd been the voice of the Dodgers for 60 years 67 years. And They The time that they played an honest remember, he's saying wind beneath my wings on a Carioca machine recorded it, and they played that at Dodger Stadium. It was to her. It was as much to the Dodgers players that he'd seen over the course of the decades that had been working. Sandy Koufax is on the field also, but it was to her, she said as she listened to it. I wanted to cry. It was truly from his heart first to me and then to all of them. And I didn't realize that they do Mass at Dodger Stadium. Is that a thing that common? I didn't know that that morning they went to Mass at Dodger Stadium, and Sandy said, I sat there praying to God. Saying, God, this is his last game. You can't let him go without. You can't let him go out with a loss. You can't let it happen. So with two outs in the bottom of the 10th, the Rockies and Dodgers tied it. Three Charlie Culberson steps to the plate. And she remembers thinking. Who? God, why did you bring somebody up? I don't know. He was a late season call up, but he goes on to hit the game winning home run. Yeah, And that's also one of the iconic. I mean, there's 100 of them. But one of the 100 iconic calls from Vin Scully was him saying, Would you believe a home run and it's funny because we we have that poster down the hall. There's a shot of Charlie Culberson.

"Thank you so much. President Trump is one of many Americans traveling this weekend. He and President elect Joe Biden, a traveling to Georgia to make one final push in the state, as it decides who will control the Senate this coming Tuesday. Millions have already cast their ballots. Margins are expected to be tight in a state that went to Biden the presidential election by just 12,000 votes. The campaign's Republicans Kelly Leffler and David Perdue, and their Democratic challengers Raphael Warnock and John Aasif, have primarily focused on mobilizing voters. Head of January 5th. NBC's Michelle Friends and spoke to ABC News political director Rick Klein about the upcoming races. Give me an idea what we can expect in these final hours before the runoff election. Well, there's gonna be a flurry of campaign activity. Kamila Harris coming to Georgia and then Joe Biden and Donald Trump will both be there. Underscoring the stakes celebrities are coming in and out on an interesting twist of Senator David Perdue is quarantining because he was exposed to covert 19. So there's remarkable teamwork in this race and really is the two Democrats versus the two Republicans. This is as big as it ever gets for runoff election. Joe Biden will be president in three weeks time and whether he controls the Senate as well of the House has enormous implications on his legislative agenda, judicial and Cabinet appointments. The hearing schedule is set by the majority leader in Congress. So if that's Mitch McConnell he can effectively block and Republicans can effectively block any appointment. But Democrats winning both of the seas would give them a 50 50 Senate, which would give Vice President Harris as the president of the Senate, the ability to break ties. If either or both of these races fall to the Republicans, it means that Mitch McConnell Has an effective veto power over the Biden agenda. Give us an idea of what's going on on the ground and what's been accomplished in Georgia Canvassing looks different in the era of Copan 19. A lot of the work has to be virtual Thea Bility to have in person. Large events has been curtailed significantly. But voter registration has continued, including registering tens of thousands of voters who weren't registered for the first round of voting in November, either because they didn't make the deadline or because they weren't even eligible. Yet some voters Turned 18 in the last two months, and a lot of it is is educational. A lot of it is organizational. And the arguments that being made about getting involved really underscored the stakes that one state has this ability to shape the balance of power in the Senate in a way that's never happened before. All right, Let's talk about the candidates. David Perdue, isolating as you mentioned Democrats Raphael Warnock and John also for trying to unseat Purdue and Republican Kelly La Flor, can they do it? It's an interesting lineup. Both senators La Flor and Purdue come from business backgrounds. Senator Purdue won his seat six years ago. Senator Laughlin, on the other hand, was appointed to this seat. When Senator Johnny Isakson fell ill. He's two Republican senators have tied themselves extraordinarily close to Trump on the Democratic side. Raphael Warnock was the pastor at the church, where Martin Luther King Jr once held the pulpit. African American. It's someone who the Democrats really coalesce behind. The other Democratic candidate is John Assad, who came close but didn't quite win the special election for a House seat a few years ago that came open He's only 33 years old. He'd be the youngest member of the Senate. The hope among Georgia Democrats is that they can activate and excite different parts of the Democratic coalition and that they could be sent to Congress together.
