Walz calls Trump a ‘dictator’ who wants to ‘overturn the Constitution’

Minnesota governor and vice presidential candidate Tim Walz called former President Trump a “dictator” who wants to “overturn the Constitution” during his final pitch to voters in the battleground state of Arizona.  Speaking in Tucson, Walz said, “Momentum is on our side, but we take nothing for granted” and “We know in Arizona a vote or two per precinct could be what it takes to win the whole damn race for the country.”  “Someday you’re going to be sitting on that porch. You’re going to be in that rocking chair, and a little one is going to come up to you after being in school where they’ve been studying the 2024 election, and they’re going to ask when everything was on the line and the American experiment was on the line, and there was somebody running who asked to be a dictator and to overturn the Constitution and talk about using the military against our own people. What did you do to stop that from happening?” Walz told the crowd on Saturday.  “And you’re going to be able to say every damn thing we could, every damn thing we could,” he said.  SEN. TOMMY TUBERVILLE TAKES AIM AT ‘COACH’ TIM WALZ OVER SPORTS TERMINOLOGY  Walz closed his speech by saying: “Make a plan to vote. Make a plan to get out and canvass. Make a plan to take a neighbor to the polls.”  Arizona is a state that leans Republican in the presidential race, according to the final Fox News Power Rankings forecast before the election.  KAMALA HARRIS APPEARS ON ‘SNL’ IN FINAL EPISODE BEFORE ELECTION  In eight high-quality polls conducted in Arizona since August, Trump has been ahead in seven. His edge has been between 1-6 points.  Immigration continues to be a highly important issue in Arizona, which shares a border with Mexico.   In the latest Wall Street Journal survey, 25% of voters said immigration was the most important issue to their vote, higher than any other battleground. It was a “deal-breaker” issue for 24% of voters. And Arizona voters preferred Trump on the issue by 10 points.  Fox News’ Remy Numa contributed to this report. 

Five states and Washington, DC, will end early voting on Sunday

Five states and Washington, DC, will end early voting on Sunday

Connecticut, Delaware, New Jersey, New York, Ohio and Washington, D.C., have their final day of early in-person voting on Sunday as the nation sits just two days away from Election Day. Here is how you can still cast your ballot early, and a breakdown of the states’ key races. Ohio is home to one of the most competitive Senate races on the map. Democrat Sen. Sherrod Brown has won the Midwestern state three times, but with Trump pushing White working-class voters toward the GOP and record spending from both parties, this is set to be a tight race. Brown faces Republican businessman Bernie Moreno. Republicans have made inroads in the northeastern and heavily industrial areas bordering Pennsylvania. Trumbull County flipped to the GOP in 2016, and Trump increased his margin to 10 points in 2020; Mahoning County flipped in 2020 by almost two points. These counties played a key role in Trump’s statewide wins. Democrats are performing better than ever in the “three C’s”: Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati. These areas have the highest percentages of college-educated voters. President Biden won the counties home to these cities by double-digit margins in 2020, with roughly 30-point wins in Franklin (Columbus) and Cuyahoga (Cleveland). Unlike in other competitive states, Republicans still hold up in Ohio’s suburban and exurban areas, particularly those surrounding Cincinnati. Ohio’s Senate race is a toss-up and the presidential race is ranked Likely R on the Fox News Power Rankings. ‘GARBAGE’ TRUMP SUPPORTERS?
