GOOD TO BE WITH YOU.
I’M VICKY NGUYEN.

"NBC NEWS DAILY" STARTS RIGHT
NOW.
>>> TODAY IS WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER
9th.
NO CLEAR WINNER.
ELECTION DAY HAS COME AND GONE
AND WE MAY BE WAITING A BIT
LONGER TO LEARN WHETHER
REPUBLICANS OR DEMOCRATS ARE IN
CHARGE OF THE HOUSE AND SENATE,
WITH MANY RACES ACROSS THE
NATION STILL TOO CLOSE TO CALL.
>>> SENATE SCRAMBLE IN
PENNSYLVANIA.
JOHN FETTERMAN DEFEATS
REPUBLICAN DR. OZ AND IN
GEORGIA, IT IS HEADED OFFICIALLY
FOR A RUNOFF.
WHERE THE OUTCOME COULD
DETERMINE THE CONTROL OF THE
SENATE.
>>> POCKETBOOK ISSUES.
WE WILL DIG INTO THE NUMBERS IN
OUR EXIT POLLS TO FIND OUT WHAT
ROLE THE ECONOMY PLAYED FOR
VOTERS IN THESE MIDTERMS.
>>> THE $2 BILLION QUESTION.
THE WINNING POWERBALL TICKET WAS
SOLD AT A HUMBLE GAS STATION IN
LOS ANGELES.
NOW WE ALL HAVE ONE QUESTION ON
OUR MINDS.
WHO BECAME TRULY ASTRONOMICALLY
FANTASTICALLY WEALTHY OVERNIGHT?
>>> WELCOME TO "NBC NEWS DAILY"
THIS WEDNESDAY.
WE BEGIN OF COURSE WITH THE
MIDTERM ELECTIONS AS THE
SITUATION CHANGES BY THE MINUTE.
NBC NEWS IS NOW PROJECTING THE
RACE FOR SENATE IN GEORGIA, THAT
IS HEADING TO A RUNOFF IN
DECEMBER.
NEITHER THE DEMOCRATIC
INCUMBENT, RAPHAEL WARNOCK, NOR
TRUMP-BACKED REPUBLICAN HERSCHEL
WALKER MET THE 50% REQUIRED
THRESHOLD NEEDED TO WIN THE RACE
OUTRIGHT.
>> WE ALSO HAVE A PROJECTION OUT
OF WISCONSIN.
INCUMBENT REPUBLICAN SENATOR RON
JOHNSON HAS WON RE-ELECTION
AFTER A COMPETITIVE RACE AGAINST
DEMOCRATIC CHALLENGER MANDELA
BARNES.
ALL OF THIS MEANS THAT WE ARE
GETTING TRULY DOWN TO THE WIRE
WITH JUST THREE SEATS, WE’RE
TALKING ARIZONA, NEVADA, GEORGIA
STILL UP FOR GRABS IN THE SENATE
WHICH MEANS ULTIMATELY CONTROL
OF CONGRESS IS AT STAKE.
SO THANKFULLY WE HAVE OUR SENIOR
NATIONAL POLITICS REPORTER,
JONATHAN ALLEN, JOINING US NOW.
WE ARE SO OVERJOYED THAT YOU ARE
WITH US.
I KNOW THAT YOU’RE RUNNING ON
FUMES, BARELY SLEPT.
>> LISTEN, I’M GOING TO JUMP
RIGHT INTO IT, JOHN.
I’VE GOT TO TALK GEORGIA WITH
YOU.
THIS IS SOMETHING WE’VE TALKED
ABOUT FOR MONTHS.
YOU’VE BEEN COVERING IT, YOU’VE
BEEN THERE, BEEN IN THE
TRENCHES.
>> AND YOU KNOW GEORGIA.
>> WE SHOULD TELL THE WORLD,
JOHN RAN INTO MY POPS AT A CIGAR
BAR IN ATLANTA SO YOU’RE REALLY
IN THE TRENCHES IN WORLD.
>> HE’S THE NICEST MAN IN THE
WORLD.
>> LET’S TALK ABOUT GEORGIA
HERE.
WHAT DO THESE EXIT POLLS TELL US
ABOUT WHAT VOTERS ARE THINKING
AND NOW WHERE THIS RUNOFF IS
HEADED?
ONE OF THE FASCINATING THINGS I
READ IS WHEN THEY LOOKED AT THE
EXIT POLLS A LOT OF PEOPLE FELT
THAT RAPHAEL WARNOCK SHOWED GOOD
JUDGMENT COMPARED TO HERSCHEL
WALKER, BUT THEY FELT THAT WARNOCK WAS TOO EXTREME.
SO WHAT DOES THAT TELL US
DENIED.
BUT IN THE LAST SEVERAL DAISY OF
THIS CAMPAIGN, RAPHAEL WARNOCK
HAD BEEN INTENSIFYING HIS
ATTACKS ON HERSCHEL WALKER,
CALLING HIM NOT JUST NOT READY
FOR OFFICE BUT UNFIT FOR OFFICE
AND ALSO REFERRING TO HIM AS A
PATHOLOGICAL LIAR.
VICKY, WE HAVE SPOKEN WITH
SEVERAL VOTERS, INCLUDING SOME
REPUBLICANS WHO SAID THEY WERE
RELUCTANT TO VOTE FOR HERSCHEL
WALKER.
SOME DID SO BECAUSE OF CONCERNS
ABOUT THE ECONOMY BUT THEY DID
NOT VOTE FOR HIM
ENTHUSIASTICALLY, AND THAT MAY
HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO WHY THIS
RACE WAS SO CLOSE.
OF COURSE THE GUBERNATORIAL RACE
INVOLVING REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR
BRIAN KEMP AND HIS CHALLENGER,
STACEY ABRAMS, HE CRUISED TO
VICTORY ACCORDING TO AN NBC NEWS
PROJECTION MUCH EARLIER IN THE
NIGHT.
THERE WAS SOME QUESTION ABOUT
WHETHER SOME REPUBLICAN VOTERS
VOTED FOR BRIAN KEMP AND PERHAPS
THEN CHOSE TO VOTE FOR THE
DEMOCRAT WARNOCK, ESSENTIALLY
SPLITTING THEIR TICKET.
THAT CERTAINLY MADE THIS SENATE
RACE THAT MUCH CLOSER.
BUT NOW GEORGIANS HERE HAVE TO
PREPARE FOR SEVERAL MORE WEEKS
AFTER CAMPAIGNING AFTER ALREADY
GOING THROUGH A CAMPAIGN THAT
BROUGHT A QUARTER BILLION
DOLLARS TO THIS STATE.
SOME VOTERS WE SPOKE WITH NOT
TOO THRILLED WITH ANOTHER MONTH
OF CAMPAIGN ADS.
BUT WE’RE EXPECTING NEW
INFORMATION FROM THE GEORGIA
SECRETARY OF STATE WITHIN THE
NEXT HOUR HERE IN ATLANTA.
>> WE’RE LOOKING FORWARD TO
DECEMBER 6th.
IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE
HOW THESE CANDIDATES CAN GET
MORE VOTERS TO THE POLLS OR
CHANGE ANYBODY’S MINDS.
GABE GUTIERREZ, THANK YOU.
>>> WELL, DEMOCRATS ARE
CELEBRATING CRITICAL WINS IN
PIVOTAL PENNSYLVANIA WHERE NBC
NEWS IS PROJECTING THAT JOHN
FETTERMAN DEFEATED MEHMET OZ
FLIPPING THAT HARD-FOUGHT SENATE
SEAT BLUE.
WE’RE ALSO LEARNING OZ CALLED
FETTERMAN THIS MORNING TO
OFFICIALLY CONCEDE.
MEANWHILE DEMOCRATS SCORING A
SECOND BIG WIN IN THE STATE’S
GOVERNOR’S RACE.
JOSH SHAPIRO BEAT OUT HIS FAR
RIGHT OPPONENT, DOUG MASTRIANO.
REHEMA, IT IS GOOD TO SEE YOU
THIS WEDNESDAY.
I KNOW YOU ARE IN THE BIGGEST
AND MOST POPULOUS COUNTY THERE
IN PENNSYLVANIA TALKING TO
VOTERS TODAY.
WHAT ARE THEY TELLING YOU ABOUT
SORT OF IN THE END WHAT MATTERED
MOST TO THEM?
>> Reporter: WELL, WHAT WE FOUND
OUT FROM PEOPLE HERE IN
PENNSYLVANIA, AND PARTICULARLY
HERE IN THE PHILADELPHIA AREA,
THEY WERE THINKING A LOT LIKE
PEOPLE ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
WE TALKED TO THEM IN TERMS OF
WHAT THEY SAID TO US IN SOME
EXIT POLLS.
YOU CAN SEE THESE NUMBERS
SPECIFICALLY FOR YOURSELF ABOUT
WHAT THEY MENTIONED.
ABORTION HERE IN PENNSYLVANIA,
36% OF THE VOTERS SAID IT
MATTERED TO THEM.
THEN INFLATION CAME IN SECOND
FOR FOLKS HERE AT 29% AND THEN
IT WAS CRIME AT 11%.
IF YOU GO DOWN, YOU SEE GUN
POLICY AND IMMIGRATION.
THEY ROUNDED OUGHT THE TOP FIVE
ISSUES THAT PENNSYLVANIA VOTERS
TALKED TO.
I SPOKE SPECIFICALLY TO SOME
VOTERS ABOUT WHAT THEY WERE
FEELING.
TAKE A LISTEN TO HOW THEY
RESPONDED TO WHAT MATTERED TO
