The first was a seventy nine yard 0:11:04.240 --> 0:11:06.600 punt return to snap in nine all tie. Giants were 0:11:06.640 --> 0:11:09.920 down eight. They were in Steeler territory, second and tenth. 0:11:09.720 --> 0:11:15.559 At the Pittsburgh thirty five, Chelts takes the staff back 0:11:15.600 --> 0:11:20.160 to throw under pressure. Lobb's won right and it's intercepted 0:11:20.760 --> 0:11:26.040 Oh the head of Singletary and picked up by Gey Bissa. 0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:28.000 Papa, with the call heard here on Bloomberg Radio. Steelers 0:11:28.000 --> 0:11:30.520 won twenty six to eighteen, So so Pittsburgh is six and 0:11:30.559 --> 0:11:33.280 two and the Giants are two and six. Daniel Jones, 0:11:33.320 --> 0:11:35.599 in his career playing a primetime game is one in 0:11:35.760 --> 0:11:38.800 fifteen at the guard. Nick's blow at thirteen point second half, 0:11:38.880 --> 0:11:40.680 Lee in Cleveland rally to win one ten. 0:11:40.559 --> 0:11:41.160 One oh four. 0:11:41.280 --> 0:11:43.440 Caves are four to Oh, so are the Celtics. They 0:11:43.480 --> 0:11:46.760 meet Milwaukee one nineteen one e eight. John Stashanwert, Bloomberg 0:11:46.800 --> 0:11:48.079 Sports Canada, Nathan. 0:11:50.080 --> 0:11:54.200 Coast to Coast on Bloomberg Radio, nationwide on Sirius XM, 0:11:54.320 --> 0:11:57.200 and around the world on Bloomberg dot Com and the 0:11:57.240 --> 0:12:01.520 Bloomberg Business app. This is Bloomberg Daybreak. Good morning, I'm 0:12:01.600 --> 0:12:05.160 Nathan Hager. Just seven days remain until election day. In 0:12:05.200 --> 0:12:08.079 both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are looking for any 0:12:08.280 --> 0:12:10.160 advantage they can find. 0:12:10.320 --> 0:12:11.840 We're a party of common sense. 0:12:12.360 --> 0:12:15.520 We don't want transgender operations. 0:12:14.840 --> 0:12:15.880 All over the place. 0:12:16.120 --> 0:12:18.520 We don't want open borders. 0:12:18.760 --> 0:12:25.080 Either it's Donald Trump sitting in there stewing, stewing over 0:12:25.160 --> 0:12:29.360 his enemy's list, or me, with your help, working for 0:12:29.480 --> 0:12:31.520 you checking off my to do list. 0:12:32.520 --> 0:12:34.920 That was the vice president rallying supporters in Michigan while 0:12:34.920 --> 0:12:38.040 the former president got out the vote in Georgia. Joining 0:12:38.120 --> 0:12:40.520 us for more on this last week of the race 0:12:40.800 --> 0:12:43.959 is Jennifer Lawless, Professor and politics Chair at the University 0:12:44.000 --> 0:12:47.120 of Virginia. Jennifer, good morning. We have two candidates who 0:12:47.160 --> 0:12:49.920 couldn't be farther apart from each other, Yet the polls 0:12:50.000 --> 0:12:53.240 showed this race is as close as it gets. Where 0:12:53.360 --> 0:12:57.840 is their wiggle room at this point? Good morning, Good morning. 0:12:58.520 --> 0:13:01.280 It seems to me that the only wiggle room really 0:13:01.320 --> 0:13:04.880 has to do with voter turnout. Virtually every voter has 0:13:04.920 --> 0:13:08.840 decided whether Donald Trump or Kamala Harris is their preferred candidate, 0:13:09.200 --> 0:13:11.880 and the goal for each campaign is now making sure 0:13:11.960 --> 0:13:13.200 that they get their people out. 0:13:13.080 --> 0:13:13.880 To the polls. 0:13:14.200 --> 0:13:17.840 That raises the question about whether former President Trump's strategy 0:13:17.880 --> 0:13:20.080 of really trying to shore up his base in these 0:13:20.080 --> 0:13:22.959 final days is the right one while we're seeing Kamala 0:13:23.040 --> 0:13:26.840 Harris kind of do the same in the battleground states. 0:13:26.880 --> 0:13:29.040 How do you see the strategies playing out right now? 0:13:30.360 --> 0:13:32.640 The problem for the Trump campaign in terms of that 0:13:32.760 --> 0:13:37.240 strategy is that he runs the risk of alienating any 0:13:37.360 --> 0:13:40.280 voter who was on the fence about whether or not 0:13:40.320 --> 0:13:43.960 to turn out, and Puerto Rican voters in particular have 0:13:44.320 --> 0:13:47.880 potentially been turned off based on the Madison Square Garden rally, 0:13:48.200 --> 0:13:51.360 and in Pennsylvania, when you have several hundred thousand Puerto 0:13:51.400 --> 0:13:54.040 Rican voters, that's not a position you want to be in. 0:13:54.200 --> 0:13:57.280 So both campaigns need to be really, really careful over 0:13:57.320 --> 0:13:58.880 these final seven days. 0:13:58.800 --> 0:14:02.120 We've seen Vice President Harris try to capitalize on some 0:14:02.160 --> 0:14:05.000 of those comments of the Madison Square Garden rally over 0:14:05.040 --> 0:14:07.440 the weekend. Do you expect that to be part of 0:14:07.480 --> 0:14:11.120 this closing argument that the Vice president is planning to 0:14:11.160 --> 0:14:14.520 make back at the Ellipse where former President Trump spoke 0:14:14.559 --> 0:14:17.440 on January sixth, twenty twenty one later on this afternoon. 0:14:18.520 --> 0:14:20.480 I do, but I think her message is going to 0:14:20.480 --> 0:14:24.080 be broader in some ways. It'll likely be the case 0:14:24.160 --> 0:14:27.600 that she just adds Puerto Rican voters to the list 0:14:27.640 --> 0:14:30.440 of people that she says Donald Trump has offended over 0:14:30.440 --> 0:14:34.000 the course of his campaign, and the bigger a coalition 0:14:34.120 --> 0:14:36.400 she can build, and the more and more people she 0:14:36.400 --> 0:14:39.160 can put into that category, the better off she is. 0:14:39.840 --> 0:14:43.680 Part of. That coalition. Came out in protest last night 0:14:43.880 --> 0:14:47.120 at the rally in Ann Arbor for Vice President Harris. 0:14:47.200 --> 0:14:52.680 We had this pro Palestinian demonstration. Could support for Israel 0:14:52.840 --> 0:14:56.600 that Vice President Harris is continuing to show be a 0:14:56.680 --> 0:14:59.800 hurdle for her in some of these blue wall states 0:14:59.840 --> 0:15:01.240 like Michigan and Wisconsin. 0:15:02.800 --> 0:15:06.040 There's no question it's been a hurdle the entire campaign, 0:15:06.320 --> 0:15:08.520 and part of that has to do with the fact 0:15:08.520 --> 0:15:12.120 that she's the vice president to Joe Biden, and pro 0:15:12.200 --> 0:15:16.640 Palestinian voters don't think that the Biden administration has handled 0:15:16.640 --> 0:15:20.200 what's been going on in Israel and Gaza appropriately. Now, 0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:23.040 Kamala Harris is stuck between a rock and a hard 0:15:23.080 --> 0:15:25.840 place as far as that's concerned, because she is part 0:15:25.880 --> 0:15:30.040 of this administration. That said, the alternative is Donald Trump, 0:15:30.040 --> 0:15:33.680 who has made it clear that he and Benjamin Netanyaho 0:15:33.840 --> 0:15:37.560 are have no light in between them, that Trump would 0:15:37.560 --> 0:15:40.400 support everything that Netanya who would do. And so, although 0:15:40.440 --> 0:15:43.040 Harris certainly doesn't want to cast herself as the lesser 0:15:43.040 --> 0:15:45.880 of two evils, when it comes to pro Palestinian voters, 0:15:46.440 --> 0:15:48.800 she does have an edge. She just needs to convince 0:15:48.840 --> 0:15:49.600 them to turn out. 0:15:49.920 --> 0:15:52.200 Got a on thirty seconds left. We've already had tens 0:15:52.200 --> 0:15:55.080 of millions of voters turnout in early voting. What's the 0:15:55.160 --> 0:15:57.480 trajectory that we can see there? And is early voting 0:15:57.440 --> 0:15:58.480 as solid indicator? 0:16:00.000 --> 0:16:04.160 Twenty twenty people who voted early were overwhelmingly Democratic. It 0:16:04.200 --> 0:16:07.640 looks like the Democrats still have a pretty substantial advantage 0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:10.200 when it comes to early voting this time around, but 0:16:10.440 --> 0:16:13.920 it's less predictive than last time. Simply because the Republicans 0:16:13.960 --> 0:16:16.800 are embracing the method as well. 0:16:17.040 --> 0:16:20.480 This is Bloomberg Daybreak, your morning podcast on the stories 0:16:20.560 --> 0:16:23.560 making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 0:16:23.840 --> 0:16:26.240 Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 0:16:26.280 --> 0:16:29.680 Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or anywhere else you listen. 0:16:29.880 --> 0:16:32.720 You can also listen live each morning starting at five 0:16:32.760 --> 0:16:35.480 am Wall Street Time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 0:16:35.480 --> 0:16:38.400 in New York, Bloomberg in ninety nine to one in Washington, 0:16:38.440 --> 0:16:42.400 Bloomberg ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide on serious 0:16:42.600 --> 0:16:44.160 XM Channel one twenty one. 0:16:44.560 --> 0:16:47.280 Plus listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app 0:16:47.320 --> 0:16:50.160 now with Apple CarPlay and Android Atto interfaces. 0:16:50.360 --> 0:16:53.080 And don't forget to subscribe to Bloomberg and News Now. 0:16:53.200 --> 0:16:55.800 It's the latest news whenever you want it in five 0:16:55.840 --> 0:16:58.840 minutes or less.
