Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio, Studios, Podcasts, Radio News.

2
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:11,559
Speaker 2: Good Morning.

3
00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 1: I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. Here are the

4
00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:18,560
Speaker 1: stories we're following today. Karen, we begin with politics. Both

5
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:21,639
Speaker 1: Republicans and Democrats are saying they are worried about the

6
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 1: potential for violence this election season. Bloomberg's Amy Morris reports

7
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:27,080
Speaker 1: from Washington.

8
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 3: The latest Bloomberg News Morning Consult poll finds half of

9
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:35,239
Speaker 3: swing state voters say they're worried about violence surrounding the

10
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:40,160
Speaker 3: presidential election. The poll results suggest Republicans, Democrats, and even

11
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:43,839
Speaker 3: more independents have misgivings about how the race will be

12
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 3: received by a polarized electorate. Six and ten swing state voters,

13
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:53,760
Speaker 3: mostly Democrats, are worried about misinformation, and almost half, mostly Republicans,

14
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 3: expressed similar concerns about foreign interference. In Washington, Amy Morris,

15
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 3: Bloomberg Radio, Thank you.

16
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 1: About Voters headed to the polls in four states for

17
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 1: primary elections in Georgia, Idaho, Kentucky, and Oregon. But one

18
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: of the key races to watch was a special election

19
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 1: in California for former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy's old seat.

20
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 1: State Representative Vince Fong won that race with about sixty

21
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 1: percent of the vote over fellow Republican sheriff Mike Boudreau.

22
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 1: That brings Republican slim majority in the House to two

23
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 1: hundred and eighteen. As for the presidential race, two states

24
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 1: held primaries at that level. Both President Biden and former

25
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 1: President Trump added to their delegate counts, but in Kentucky,

26
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 1: the president took just seventy one point three percent of

27
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 1: the vote. Seventeen point nine percent of Democrats voted uncommitted.

28
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: Biden fared veteran Oregon. He won there with eighty eight

29
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:46,040
Speaker 1: point two percent. Former President Trump ran unopposed in Oregon,

30
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 1: and in Kentucky he won with eighty four point nine

31
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 1: percent of the vote.

32
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 2: As for Georgia Karin, the key races to watch there

33
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 2: were for the prosecutor and the judge in Donald Trump's

34
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,840
Speaker 2: election interference trial, and they both came up winners. Bloomberg

35
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 2: zed Baxter has that part the story.

36
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 4: If Prosecutor Fannie Willis wins the general election in Atlantis

37
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 4: Fulton County, she will continue to prosecute the case. Willis

38
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 4: last year obtained a sprawling iracteuring indictment against Trump and

39
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,679
Speaker 4: eighteen others Willis going in, had a very hefty fundraising

40
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 4: pot and has run on a campaign that the future

41
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 4: of the county should not be controlled by self interested politicians.

42
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:27,360
Speaker 4: The county usually votes heavily Democratic. Judge Scott McAfee won

43
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 4: an uncontested race. He was randomly assigned to the Trump

44
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 4: case by the court. At Baxter Bloomberg Radio, all Right.

45
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 1: And thank you well, Donald Trump's defense team has rested

46
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 1: its case in his hush money trial, with the former

47
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 1: president opting not to testify. We get the latest at

48
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 1: Bloomberg's John Tucker, John, Good Morning.

49
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:45,680
Speaker 5: And Karen.

50
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 6: His lawyers wrapped up their case after calling just two witnesses.

51
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 6: The question of whether Donald Trump would testify had been

52
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 6: hanging over the trial. He had said previously he would

53
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,799
Speaker 6: take the stand. In the end, it's likely his attorneys

54
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 6: strongly advised him to avoid testify. Flying Well, the juris

55
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 6: have been sent home until next week. The judge Wan

56
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,959
Speaker 6: Marachan told them to return on Tuesday for closing arguments,

57
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 6: and he expects they'll start deliberating Trump's fate the next day.

58
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 6: After four weeks, the panel has heard from over twenty witnesses,

59
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 6: including poor an actress Stormy Daniels, and the prosecution star

60
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 6: witness former Trump fixer Michael Cohen. The final witness for

61
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 6: the defense was a lawyer who was fiercely criticized by

62
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 6: the judge. As this case nears conclusion, Trump is facing

63
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:32,079
Speaker 6: three other prosecutions in New York home John Tucker, Bloomberg

64
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:33,079
Speaker 6: Radio and John.

65
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 2: One of those is in Florida, and there is movement there.

66
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 2: Prosecutors and defense lawyers in the classified Documents case are

67
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 2: do in court today for the first time since the

68
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 2: judge indefinitely postponed the trial earlier this month. US District

69
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 2: Judge Allen Cannon is scheduled to hear arguments on a

70
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 2: request from the former president to dismiss the indictment on

71
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 2: grounds that it fails to clearly articulate a crime and

72
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 2: instead amounts to quote a personal and political attack against

73
00:03:58,280 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 2: President Trump.

74
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 1: Well, now turn to the market, Snathan and the big

75
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 1: earnings are port. Wall Street has been waiting for Ai

Speaker 7: intelligence boom. It also recently announced a new platform called

83
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 7: Blackwell that promises to be even more powerful. One question

84
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 7: for investors, though, can it get enough supply from manufacturing

85
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 7: partner Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing to keep up with demand. Consensus

86

89

93
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 2: multi asset strategist at HSBC Global Research, tells Bloomberg that

94
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 2: earnings have been driving stuff.

95
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,919
Speaker 8: Look at the U S for example, the average earnings

96
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 8: beat was around eight and a half to nine percent.

97
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 8: When we look at the ten year average from before

98
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 8: COVID that was just around four and a half percent.

99
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 8: So we just came out of a reporting season where

100
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 8: you know, the average earnings beat was almost twice as

101
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:20,120
Speaker 8: high compared to the pre COVID history like what's not to.

102
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 9: Like with that.

103
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:25,600
Speaker 2: HSBC's Max Ketner also says inflation is not yet fully

104
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 2: defeated and.

105
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 1: Nathan, that's a sentiment we are hearing more and more

106
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 1: from a course of Fed officials. Feder Reserve Governor Christopher

107
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,600
Speaker 1: Waller says he needs to see more positive news on

108
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 1: inflation before cutting.

109
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 10: Rates in the absence of significant weakening in the labor market.

110
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 10: I need to see several more months of good inflation

111
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 10: data before I would be comfortable supporting and easing in

112
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 10: the stance of monetary policy.

113
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:53,040
Speaker 1: And Fed Governor Christopher Waller added that April consumer price

114
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:57,040
Speaker 1: figures where a reassuring signal that price pressures are not accelerating.

115
00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 1: Policymakers have not adjusted the benchmark interest right now at

116
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:03,040
Speaker 1: a twenty three year high since July, Well.

117
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 2: Karen, Inflation is also in focus in Europe. Let's get

118
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 2: the latest done that with Bloomberg's un Potts in London, Ewan.

00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 11: Nathan and Karen a sticky inflation shock for the Bank

120
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,359
Speaker 11: of England. Consumer prices in the UK rows two point

121
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 11: three percent in the year to April, down from three

122
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 11: point two percent the previous month. But that was a

123
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 11: smaller drop than expected and mostly due to falling household

124
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 11: energy bills. The core measure of inflation also dropped less

125
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 11: than expected, and services inflation, something the UK Central Bank

126
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 11: says it's watching closely well that barely budged, coming in

127
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,839
Speaker 11: at five point nine percent. In London. I'm une Pots, Bloomberg.

128
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: Radio, rand you and thanks well. Barclays is the latest

129
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 1: firm that wants workers to return to the office. The

130
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 1: bank is weighing whether to require US workers to commute

131
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: to company offices five days a week. Source to say

132
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 1: some managers have started warning employees to prepare to commute daily, and.

133
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,479
Speaker 2: In another banking note, Karen, the UK has fined City

134
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 2: Group almost eighty million dollars for failures in its trading

135
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 2: systems and controls. In twenty twenty two, a London staffer's

136
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:06,360
Speaker 2: fat finger trade caused a flash crash in European stocks.

137
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 2: The blunder sparked a five minute worldwide cell off, wiping

138
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 2: out three hundred and twenty six billion dollars at one point.

139
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 1: It's time now for look at some of the their

140
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 1: stories making news in New York and around the world,

141
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,239
Speaker 1: and for that we're joined by Bloomberg so Michael Barr Michael,

Speaker 5: Today's historic move drew condemnation from Israel and jubulation from

145
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 5: the Palestinians. Israel ordered back its ambassadors from Norway and Ireland.

146
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 5: Israel's Foreign Minister, Israel Katz, says that Ireland and Norway

147
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 5: intend to send a message today to the Palestinians and

148
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 5: the whole world. Terrorism pays. Multiple people have died and

149
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 5: at least a dozen were injured since a powerful tornado

150
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:59,240

00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 2: We're looking at just making sure that we have everybody

155
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 2: accounted for.

157
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 5: several states. The National Transportation Safety Board will help investigate

158
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 5: the sudden and severe turbulence that forced the emergency landing

00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 5: There is at least one death and dozens were injured.

161
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 5: This passenger was on the flight.

162
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 9: Honestly, I didn't understand at all the full scale of

163
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,719
Speaker 9: what happened until we landed. The dents that were made

164
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:46,319
Speaker 9: in the overhead large compartments, and all the additional kind

165
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 9: of paneling of heads that literally pushed through and broken

166
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:53,960
Speaker 9: those classic panels, and there's blood today.

167
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:58,720
Speaker 5: Singapore Airlines CEO Go Chun Pong says his company is

168
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 5: deeply saddened by the tragedy.

169
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 12: A relief flight with one hundred and forty three of

170
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,679
Speaker 12: the SQ three to one passengers and crew members who

171
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:12,480
Speaker 12: are able to travel, lended in Singapore this morning.

172
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,080
Speaker 5: It's believed the seventy three year old British Man who

173
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 5: died had a heart attack. The White House announced this

174
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 5: morning a new round of student loan forgiveness. According to

175
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 5: the Biden administration, more than one in ten Americans with

176
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 5: federal student loans have been approved for some measure of

177
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 5: debt relief under President Biden. The administration went on to

178
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:36,080
Speaker 5: say more than one hundred and sixty thousand borrowers will

179
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 5: benefit from the latest package, valued at seven point seven

180
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 5: billion dollars. Global News twenty four hours a day and

181
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,960
Speaker 5: whenever you wanted with the Bloomberg News. Now, I'm Michael Barr,

182
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 5: and this is Bloomberg Karen.

183
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:56,360
Speaker 1: Michael, thank you time now for the Bloomberg Sports Update

184
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 1: with John Stashauer Junka morning.

185
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 13: Good morning, Karen, the Indiana Pacer I have already had playoff

186
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 13: upsets of the third seeded Bucks and the second seeded Knicks,

187
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:06,600
Speaker 13: and now trying to knock off the top seeded Celtics

188
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 13: in the East Finals. Indiana nearly won the series opener

189
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 13: in Boston twice. Rallied back to a double digit deficit,

190
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 13: had the lead in the final minute of regulation, but

191
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,680
Speaker 13: had two cost the turnovers and didn't foul. With a

192
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 13: three point lead, they let Jalen Brown hit a game

193
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:23,319
Speaker 13: time three. Celtics won and over time one thirty three,

194
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:26,079
Speaker 13: one twenty eight. Tonight at the Guard it's another East

195
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 13: Final Game one Rangers and the Florida Panthers, who also

196
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 13: got this far last year went on to the Stanley

197
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,400
Speaker 13: Cup Final two years ago. In this round, Rangers won

198
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 13: the first two games, with Tampa Bay lost the next four.

199
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 13: Chris Prider remembered a.

200
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 14: Couple of years ago we were kind of running on fumes.

201
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 14: Two very emotional series, kind of coming from behind, and

202
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 14: obviously it was a fantastic experience. We really left that

203
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,720
Speaker 14: all out there, but I think we we feel like

204
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 14: there's a whole other level to what we can do

205
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 14: this year.

206
00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,440
Speaker 13: Well, the second playoff series ever between these teams, the

207
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 13: other back in nineteen ninety seven. Yankees are the first

208
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 13: two game losing streets late April let the stadium Mariners

209
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 13: at four home runs two by Dylan Moore, beat the

210
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 13: Yanks sixty three flavor Torres three run shot for the

211
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,240
Speaker 13: Yankee runs. Mets in Cleveland hit three homers but never led.

212
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 13: Came up short against the Guardian seven six. Red Sox

213
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 13: moves over five hundred and five to two win at

214
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 13: Tampa Bay Natural's loss of the Twins ten to nothing.

215
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 13: Philly's beat Texas moved twenty one over five hundred Rangers.

216
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 5: Sworez struck out ten.

217
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 13: He's nine to zero with a one point three six ERA.

218
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 13: Many have wondered why, with advanced technology, football games still

219
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 13: employ the old fashioned chain gang to determined first downs.

220
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 13: The NFL says it will experiment in the preseason with

221
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 13: an optical system and if it's successful, it will be

222
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 13: used permanently. There'll still be a chain gang, but only

223
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 13: as a backup measure. Johns Stash she Edward, Bloomberg Sports,

224
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:47,680
Speaker 13: Gary all.

225
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 1: Right, John, thanks, So we have one other note on

226
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 1: the Yankees. Sources say businessman Ray Chambers is renewing efforts

227
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,439
Speaker 1: to sell him minority stake in the ball club. Chambers

228
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 1: is seeking a buyer for the holding. Any Yankee Global

Speaker 15: I'm Nathan Hager.

235
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 2: Let's get more now on our latest monthly Bloomberg News

236
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 2: Morning Consult, Swing State Pole what it says about the

237
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 2: mood of voters heading into a contentious twenty twenty four election.

238
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 2: For that, we are joined by Bloomberg News National politics

239
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 2: reporter Gregory Cordy. Gregory, Good morning. I guess first off,

240
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,560
Speaker 2: I should ask you where things stand in this latest poll.

241
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 2: The dynamics changed in the seven swing states between the

242
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 2: president and former President Trump.

243
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,840
Speaker 16: Good morning, Nathan, Well, yeah, I think there's maybe just

244
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 16: a little bit of movement. You know, we this is

245
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,200
Speaker 16: a monthly tracking poll, so we parse it for just

246
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 16: even microscopic moves, And what we see this month is

247
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:57,839
Speaker 16: that President Biden probably has increased his standing just a

248
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 16: little bit with these swing state voters. Overall, if we

249
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 16: look across these seven swing states, that's Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada,

250
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,680
Speaker 16: and North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin. We look across those states,

251
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 16: we've gone from President Trump Foreign President Trump being up

252
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,560
Speaker 16: by six points to now being up by only four.

253
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 16: And the states that we are looking at most closely

254
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:23,479
Speaker 16: are those blue Wall states, those northern industrial states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin.

255
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 16: President Biden continues to be very competitive there. They're all

256
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 16: within a point or two. But Foreign President Trump continues

257
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,560
Speaker 16: to lead in those other states in the Sun Belt,

258
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 16: except for Nevada. Nevada is the one sort of inscrutable

259
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 16: one state that we have this month. Trump was leading

260
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 16: by eight points last month now instead even there's a

261
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,319
Speaker 16: high margin of error in that state, So not quite

262
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 16: sure how to interpret that. But overall, this is a

263
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 16: pretty good pall for Joe Biden if he's going to

264
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:54,560
Speaker 16: make up ground.

265
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:56,840
Speaker 2: In terms of the issues that we've talked about this

266
00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:00,200
Speaker 2: time around, we've gotten some pretty interesting insights about what

267
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,840
Speaker 2: voters are concerned about heading toward November.

268
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 16: Yeah, you talk about the mood of the American people,

269
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 16: and I'd have to say the mood is somewhat anxious

270
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 16: about this election. Half of these swing state voters say

271
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 16: they're concerned about the possibility of violence in the November

272
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 16: election and its aftermath. You know, we've seen protests over

273
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 16: you know, Black Lives Matter over the past few years now,

274
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 16: pro Palestinian protests, but also of course January sixth, there's

275
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,160
Speaker 16: a lot of concern that if the other half of

276
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 16: the country doesn't get its way, there could be violence,

277
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:46,640
Speaker 16: but also fears about misinformation, disinformation, foreign interference, election fraud.

278
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 16: These are all sort of widely held, some more than

279
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 16: others by the American people, and it's just sort of

280
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 16: reflective of going into a very contentious and polarizing presidential election.

281
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 16: People sort of feel that tension.

282
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 2: Talking of the polarization, Greg Greed. Do those concerns cut

283
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 2: across party lines or are they felt more by one

284
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 2: side than the other.

285
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 16: What's interesting about that violence question is that they're felt

286
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 16: pretty exactly equally by both Democrats and Republicans, and interestingly,

287
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 16: independents who are seeing it on both ends have even

288
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 16: higher fears of violence on some of those other questions,

289
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 16: on foreign interference and on misinformation a little bit more

290
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:35,360
Speaker 16: Republican or Democratic depending on the question. But yeah, these

291
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,920
Speaker 16: are pretty broadly held fears across the American electorate.

292
