1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,440 Speaker 1: Let's go now live to Carla Harris, HQ to Q 2 00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:04,840 Speaker 1: and a host and host of Saturday morning's Jack Tamed Jack. 3 00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:07,440 Speaker 2: Hello, Hello, Heather. 4 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:09,440 Speaker 1: Are you getting any kind of a vibe from the 5 00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:12,119 Speaker 1: Democrats about whether they're feeling bummed out or optimistic? 6 00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 2: Nah? See that all the students here at Howard University 7 00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:19,200 Speaker 2: in Washington, DC, her alma mater, and all the students 8 00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 2: are flooding and here to see her speak later on 9 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:23,680 Speaker 2: this evening. Although will she speak, We'll all remember, of 10 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 2: course that Hillary Clinton decided not to on election night 11 00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 2: when she found herself in a potentially similar situation eight 12 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 2: years ago. Look, I think you're right it's too early 13 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,720 Speaker 2: to read too much into things, but I think your 14 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:38,280 Speaker 2: analysis is also spot on at the stage. You would 15 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 2: much rather be teen Trump than teen Harris at the 16 00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 2: moment looking at those early numbers, especially around Georgia, like 17 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 2: they've put a lot of resources in that, the Democrats, 18 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 2: and I think looking at those numbers in Georgia, it's 19 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 2: not an unassailable lead Vietnam. It's called Georgia for Trump 20 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,960 Speaker 2: to set, but certainly he's well ahead at the moment. 21 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 2: The early numbers in Pennsylvania are probably the only thing 22 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 2: giving the Democrats much reason for optimism. But even if 23 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 2: you go and look at some of the counties across 24 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:10,400 Speaker 2: Michigan and Wisconsin, they've been comparing some of the numbers 25 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 2: that Harris is posting there with the numbers that Joe 26 00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 2: Biden posted and across those counties, and they're just individual counties, 27 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,760 Speaker 2: she doesn't seem to be performing as well at the stage, 28 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 2: which then would suggest that maybe she's not in the 29 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 2: strongest position right now. Like you say earlier in the night, 30 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 2: no one here is crying just yet. It's not too 31 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 2: somber or dark just yet. But certainly the people here 32 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 2: at Howard, they're going to be hoping that the results 33 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 2: starts in this way. 34 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: So Ap, I mean Pennsylvania, what are you looking at it? 35 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 1: You still see Pennsylvania ahead because I'm looking at AP's 36 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: count AP's got on fifty point three in her now 37 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: on forty eight point eight, so he's got an e. 38 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 2: I haven't seen that, Lad, I haven't seen it. Haven't 39 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 2: seen those letters the latest updates because they sort of 40 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 2: dropped them in matches, right, So there you go. Yeah, 41 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 2: she was leading, She was leading on the early numbers 42 00:01:55,800 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 2: out of Pennsylvania. Oh my god, if they lose Pennsylvania, 43 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 2: good night, nurse. Do we just pack up? 44 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 1: If they lose Pennsylvania, Jack, do we just go right? 45 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: That's that, we'll call it and we'll go home. 46 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's whether or not they can call it tonight. Right. 47 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 2: So the problem is that they might they might have 48 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 2: eighty five percent of the boat counts in Pennsylvania, but 49 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 2: those last votes are taking a long time, maybe the 50 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:20,959 Speaker 2: mail and ballot something like that, taking a long time 51 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 2: to actually add them up. So when they finally do 52 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 2: call Pennsylvania, we're able to pack up and call it. 53 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:27,079 Speaker 2: I think a reckon room front. 54 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 1: What do you make of Trump be leading in Virginia? 55 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: So they've got amateur We're how far through are they? 56 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,399 Speaker 1: They're about sixty four percent so done about about two 57 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 1: thirds of the count there. Donald Trump is on forty 58 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: nine point seven and she's on forty eight point seven. 59 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting. I'm sure the breakdown favors like the 60 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 2: Trump support favors the rural parts of Virginia over those, 61 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 2: you know, the areas that border on Washington, d C. 62 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:53,800 Speaker 2: I mean that you know, Washington d C is a 63 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 2: very very Democrat leaning city compared to most other cities 64 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 2: in the US. But yeah, I mean, that's that's very 65 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 2: interesting that it's you know, like I say, I I think, 66 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 2: I think that the Trump team will be very pleased 67 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 2: and interesting that, especially in Georgia, perhaps more than anywhere 68 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 2: else at the moment, all o Virginia as well. He 69 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 2: is comfortably out doing what the polls suggested. And surely 70 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 2: we thought after two previous elections the polsters might have 71 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 2: a good steer on how much they need to be 72 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 2: adjusting their models to account for Donald Trump. But I 73 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 2: don't know. Maybe maybe those numbers again early days are 74 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 2: suggesting that they haven't appropriately adjusted them for the Trump 75 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 2: effect or. 76 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 1: Jack It's going to be exciting. I bet you were 77 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: bet you were sure at the Trump HQ tonight. 78 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 2: Based on this, I oh, yeah, I mean it's well, 79 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 2: it's always My theory is I'm here with my wonderful 80 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 2: colleague Logan. He gets us correspondent, well, he gets DIBs, 81 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 2: he gets DIBs and so and I just do what 82 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,120 Speaker 2: I'm told, and so that I do have. I astly 83 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 2: think I have a real habit of this. There's my 84 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 2: fourth US election. I've never been there on Luction Night 85 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 2: when a candidate has won with Joe buy it in 86 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 2: four years ago and he remember he was like, oh, 87 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 2: it's looking girl, and I didn't call it. So I 88 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 2: don't know. Maybe there's the tame factor as well. 89 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: Maybe maybe, yeah, maybe that is the thing. Jack, Maybe 90 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 1: you are the Keith influence. I appreciate it. Look after 91 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: yourself enjoyed, Jack, tame Q and. 92 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,279 Speaker 2: I host for more from Hither Duplessy Allen Drive. 93 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: Listen live to news talks it'd be from four pm weekdays, 94 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 1: or follow the podcast on iHeartRadio
