Hour 2: Marathon travelers · Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning

  Speaker 1: When have we ever looked to Alaska in terms of
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: political drama? We had some with Murkowski, you know, independent, Republican, pro-Trump, anti-Trump,
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: nothing compared to this, because everyone admits that what the
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: New York Times revealed is a dirty trick. I think
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: even Roger Stone would marvel. at how long they worked
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: on this. He was considered the Mr. Dirty Trickster of
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: all time for the GOP. Wait, what New.
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: York Times did was a dirty trick?
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: No, what the Democrats did. Oh, the Democrats did.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Oh, I'm sorry. I misunderstood.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: But they gave the intricate details of how this went
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: back to 2025, where members of the Democrats' campaign, I'm
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: always mispronouncing her name, Peralta, right? Peltola. Peltola. was engaged
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: in trying to find a Sullivan somewhere in Alaska, and
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: they found about 43 of them. But they hit gold
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: with the guy who lives in that fishing village who decided, yeah,
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: I'll run. And the Senate campaign Democratic committee that gives
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: you money, led by Schumer and some of the other
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: top Democrats who were in on it, and they used
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: this strategy in the primary, and it worked because that is–
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: a right choice situation, as is the general election. And
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: now all of a sudden, because of that, New York Times,
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: as our own John Decker at the White House, gave
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: massive credit to the reporter because he said he not
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: only connected the dots, he had people went on the
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: record who worked in the Democratic campaign who said, oh, yeah, yeah,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: we were directly involved and she was directly involved. And
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: so now you have the Department of Justice. They are
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: issuing subpoenas, massive numbers of subpoenas. They are putting together
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: a grand jury. And they already have a lawsuit. The
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: federal government already has a lawsuit that is saying no
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: matter if he loses, we have to freeze the election results.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: We freeze the election results until we can have an investigation,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: which is an important part of this. And the governor,
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: who's a Republican, has doubled up, said we're investigating it
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: for criminal violations and civil violations. And of course, the
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: president has weighed in on this. and has said, hey, man,
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: you got to know this election. You can't go forward
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: with this. This is out and out a dirty trick.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: And we're hearing from all the sides now. Dan Sullivan,
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: who really hasn't been doing a lot of media interviews,
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: is also now doing them because he knows this could
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: turn the tide and put him back in office. He
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: was on with Sean Hannity.
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: She and her team and at the highest levels of
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: the DSCC spent over a year scheming in a secret
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: operation to trick Alaskans to get them to throw away
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: their vote. And it's remarkable. The Democrats will do anything
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: to gain power. This goes to the highest levels of
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: the Democrats in D.C. Schumer, Gillibrand. It's an outrage.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: We're going to win.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they want a bigger investigation of this. Peltola, who
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: didn't say anything when it first came out, is now
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: out talking. Of course, she's going to some friendlier places
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: like CNN.
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: I knew nothing about any other candidates on the ballot
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: except for me and the incumbent.
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: That is all I have ever known about.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: They have texts. They have texts from you talking about
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: the plan working. And Democrats across the country are coming
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: out and pulling away from her. But everybody, every Democrat
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: now in Alaska is getting on TV to defend her.
• 3:56
  Speaker 6: This is not confusing.
• 3:58
  Speaker 7: Republicans have claimed election confusion and worked to try to
• 4:04
  Speaker 7: make Alaskans scared of the election process. And we just
• 4:08
  Speaker 7: refuse to be.
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: We don't have time for this kind of nonsense.
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: This is really an inappropriate use of resources and time.
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: Dan Sullivan is making hay over, you know, allegations that
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: are completely unfounded and silly and a diversion.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: You notice not one of them denied it?
• 4:26
  Speaker 8: No.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: And I think everybody acknowledges this is dirty. This is
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: as dirty as it can get. But there are nuances. Apparently,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: to succeed, you have to try to find evidence that,
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: in this case, that one Dan Sullivan out of the
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: 43 who agreed to run in the election, basically to
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: steer votes away from Senator, the Republican Senator Sullivan, You
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: have to prove that he was paid to run, that
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: he received gifts, gratuities, and I'm sure as they subpoena
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: now all records from everybody in Alaska, because that's the
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: reason that you issue subpoenas for a grand jury. You're
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: going on a fact-finding mission to put it before a
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: grand jury. That's a crime. That's a felony crime. That's
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: happened before in lower elections around the country where people
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: have been charged with that. So that's the key, because
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: other than that, The Constitution of the United States and
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: also the laws in Alaska are nebulous about that. Are nebulous.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: But if you think at its base, this happens all
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: the time. So that's why it's not illegal. It happens
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: all the time. What reason somebody is trying to convince
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: someone to run, that doesn't play into it. If a
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: party comes to you and wants you to run, that's legal.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: I'm sure that happened to you. I mean, if they
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: come and say to you, you should run. This is
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: the reason. This is what we're going to do for you.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: They allegedly told him and they went after every Dan
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: Sullivan in the state. There was 48 people that contacted
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: him and he was the one that said yes. But
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: you're exactly right. As long as they didn't give him
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: any money or promise him anything, then this is going
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: to be unfortunately legal. Hopefully they'll look at this. And
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: change the law.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: He's hiding out in that fishing village that you can't
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: even find with a GPS. Way out there near the
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Aleutian Islands in Alaska. Next step is Russia. This guy,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: they'll be able to crack him. This guy does not
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: strike me as somebody who is going to be able
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: to do Dr. Fauci and take the Fifth Amendment a
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: hundred times.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: If they say to him, look, we won't charge you
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: at all. We just want your testimony. Now you're talking
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: their language. This guy looks like a real goomer. I mean,
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: if you've seen him, like a real goober, not the
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: brightest light bulb in the world.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: And why else would he have done it?
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: And it was so obvious. What they should have done
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: is a little bit better. He never campaigned. He never
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: spent money on his campaign. He never did an interview.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: This guy just disappeared. He was gone. The only thing
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: he had was his name on the ballot. It was
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: so obvious what they are doing. And listen, I think
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: that there's, I already know there's going to be this
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: huge state investigation going and federal investigation, and there's going
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: to be a lot of attention on this. But here's
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: the thing, Curtis, and tell me if you think I'm
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: right on this. If Sullivan wins, this all goes away.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: Yes. If the sitting senator, see, when you say Sullivan,
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: now I get very confused.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Oh, I obviously didn't mean the other guy.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: When the sitting Republican senator, who has a real chance
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: to win now, because there are still Alaskans who haven't voted.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: They have a lot of early voting. And it's ranked choice.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: But he now can sail to victory on this because
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: the Democrats are playing prevent defense. They're saying, well, you know,
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: there's already a lot of early votes. It's almost like
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: the Fetterman case. Remember when Fetterman debated Oz and just
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: folded because of his medical issues? Remember, so many early
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: ballots were cast that it didn't impact a lot of people.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: So we have to see. I will tell you this, though.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: You're absolutely right. There needs to be laws in every election,
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: including for the boards of education, you know, for people
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: who determine what monies get spent. from property taxes in schools,
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: that you can't do ballot stacking. You can't. Everybody acknowledges
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: it's dirty, right?
• 8:25
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: But they say, but it's legal. Well, let's eliminate that. Now, Larry,
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: we praise the New York Times. You heard how effusive
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: in praise John Decker, a White House reporter, was for that.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: One reporter from the New York Times who not only
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: dug up all this information, but was able to actually
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: get people to go on record. That's really the key
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: to a good investigation. Well, the New York Times broke
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: another story. Remember how Barack Obama came out as soon
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: as Ilhan Omar was being accused of, oh, you know,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: fake marriage, you know, financial improprieties, illegally coming into the
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: country from Somalia. Remember how he embraced, he's the first really,
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: and naturally he's the most prominent Democrat. Well, it turns
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: out the New York Times did a full investigation of
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: Published it. Ladies and gentlemen, you got to give them props.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: And they said, hey, Barack, your own Department of Homeland
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Security and FBI did a complete investigation of all those charges.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: You found her to be guilty of a felony, except
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: the decision of the Department of Justice was the statute
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: of limitation was beyond five years. We'll never be able
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: to get it. He did it. Biden did it. Obviously,
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: the Trump DOJ is doing it. So Barack Obama, you're
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: going to apologize to The New York Times or you're
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: going to vilify them?
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: I think he's not going to say a thing. I
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: bet he doesn't even say a thing about this. But, yeah,
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: it happened under the Biden administration, too. Listen, she's in
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: some real trouble. And the reason I know she's in.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: some real trouble is because I saw an interview with
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: Tom Homan and they said, is it just the name switch?
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: Is that all they have? And he gave this Chesser
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: cat smile and said, I can't comment on that. And
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: they said, well, so it sounds like they have something else.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: Is it the fraud? And he smiled again and said,
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: I can't comment on that. Now, how many times have
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: you heard Tom Holman say, I can't comment on something?
• 10:26
  Speaker 8: Never.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: I mean, this is a bigger investigation than we know.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: Three presidents, Obama, Biden, and now the Trump administration have
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: said it appears that she is guilty of fraud. Of
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: the immigration fraud, but there's a lot more fraud than that.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: There's a lot more to this. This is her lying
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: about her net worth. where she was probably hiding the
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: money that she was getting from the Somali community on
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: the fraud. There's a lot here. You know, they were
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: talking about deportation a while ago. She might end up
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: in jail. Well, I just want to salute the New
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: York Times. They use their resources at a massive to
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: do the deep dive. And to come up with this information,
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: which we're entitled to. That doesn't forgive them for Russiagate,
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: and that doesn't forgive them for Hunter Biden's laptop. They
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: were wrong about both of them, and they won a
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: Pulitzer for the first one.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: They get a Pulitzer for Alaska and Ilhan Omar and Obama.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they're probably not going to get that. But the thing–
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: what they did to this country was awful, was awful.
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: They got to do a lot more than this. They
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: should come out and apologize. They should give the Pulitzer back.
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: That's what I would think would be appropriate. Well– DoorDash
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: purchases Instacart. What does that mean to all of us?
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: Plus a chance to see comedian John Mulaney at 825.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: But first. To Mac.
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: So I guess this is big news, huh? That DoorDash
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: bought Instagram. Oh, not Instagram. Instacart.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: Instacart.
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: And the reason I said Instagram and didn't know it
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: was because I haven't used either of those services.
• 12:08
  Speaker 5: Oh, really?
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: DoorDash or Instacart.
• 12:10
  Speaker 8: Wow.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: You have?
• 12:11
  Speaker 8: Yes.
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: I've only done Instacart a few times because somebody gave
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: me a gift card.
• 12:16
  Speaker 5: So I said, well, better use it.
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: And DoorDash happens not regularly in my house, but it
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: seems to be creeping up more and more.
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: Are you a DoorDash guy?
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: No. You have to ask Nancy because she believes if
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: God had intended women a cook, he wouldn't have invented
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: takeout food.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: That's a great question.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: Great point. Great point.
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: Well, my kids use DoorDash all the time, which really,
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: because I talked to them about DoorDash one day because
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: I said, man, who uses DoorDash? Why is it so successful?
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: And they said, we do all the time. And I go,
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: wait a second. Neither of you have jobs.
• 12:59
  Speaker 10: You used your desk.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: You don't know it. That's exactly right. That's exactly right.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Let me get this correct. So your family, your kids
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: who are away, Larry, and Natalie, your son who is away,
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: they end up charging their orders to you?
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: I have seen them on my card, yes.
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: Even my daughter who lives home and has a job.
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: Can I add?
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: Love her, but. Can I add something to that formula?
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: I pay for a meal plan.
• 13:31
  Speaker 5: Exactly.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: I pay for them to go to a cafeteria and
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: they make the pasta at the place that he goes to.
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: My son's at Elon and they actually have a pasta
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: maker there. They have tremendous food.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: And it's free. It's not that bad, the cuisine. It's
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: not like junior high school or high school. You know,
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: the cafeteria is pretty good in colleges and universities. And
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: yet they still decide, no, I'm not going to use
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: dad's plan. I don't want to walk.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: I don't want to go to the cafeteria.
• 14:01
  Speaker 5: It's raining.
• 14:02
  Speaker 8: It's cold.
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: It's windy.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: The cafeteria is closed. And I really need something.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: So when you see it on your charge card, your
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: charge is coming in, do you go ballistic?
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: No, because I don't check it enough. But then that's
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: the problem.
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: But I'm not going to blame my kids all the
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: time because I have been lazy. And I decided to
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: put an order to the diner because, you know, I
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: love the diner.
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: Who doesn't? And I'll get a Greek salad. And I've
• 14:27
  Speaker 5: done this.
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: And I get it. And my, you know, $ 19 Greek
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: salad has now cost me $ 32.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: What? Oh, yes.
• 14:37
  Speaker 5: The fees, the delivery, the tip.
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: And sometimes if you go to the restaurant versus the
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: price that's on DoorDash or any of the other delivery services,
• 14:51
  Speaker 4: sometimes they're more than if you actually went there.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: My, my. What a ripoff.
• 14:59
  Speaker 4: Well, not if you don't want to walk.
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: So anyway, DoorDash announced that it's buying Instacart in a
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: $ 17 billion deal. A $ 17 billion deal. And so the
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: two of them are now going to get together. And
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: Instacart is like a grocery store online. They also deliver.
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: DoorDash delivers from restaurants. The two of them together, I
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: guess they're going to own the food industry.
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: Oh, so it's a monopoly. You're going to get screwed more,
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: the both of you.
• 15:27
  Speaker 5: That's what people are suspecting.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: Well, you said that Nancy does take out. She doesn't
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: do DoorDash?
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: She doesn't let me know. You know, I'm oblivious. All
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: the Amazon boxes and then food deliveries, I'm oblivious.
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: Let's get some talkbacks real fast before the 7.30 news.
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that reporter cracks me up.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: Trump is the hardest working politician in our lifetimes.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: Probably ever.
• 15:59
  Speaker 11: You know why?
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: Because he wasn't a politician.
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: He was a hard working businessman who was successful. Yeah,
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: I agree with you. That was the stupidest question, the
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: dumbest question. There was an easy way to ask that.
• 16:13

• 16:15
  Speaker 2: to ask in that he would have gone, oh, because
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: he's going to win. You don't say, is it because
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: you're not feeling well? You're assuming something that's not true.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: True, but there's a strategy behind it. We'll probably know

  Speaker 1: by Monday.
• 16:29

  Speaker 5: Not just the suburban drunks, okay.

  Speaker 1: to never end sex. they want another bag another bag
• 17:06

  Speaker 7: Next news, 8 o'clock, bulletins at once.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: I'm Daria Albinger on 710WOR. Up next, our colleague Rob Astorino.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: Got to ask him, why is Vice President J.D. Vance
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: coming in on Monday to campaign for Anthony Constantino in
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: the reddest of all red congressional districts in New York State?
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: On the line right now, our colleague Rob Astorino is
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: running many elections. He's an expert. It's crisscrossed the country
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: following the primaries and now the general elections. But Rob,
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: I got to first ask him, I'm looking at the
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: schedule of Vice President J.D. Vance, who has been as
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: busy as President Trump going from state to state on
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: behalf of Republicans. Monday, he's going to be in Rome,
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: New York, in the reddest congressional district in the state
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: for Anthony Constantino. What a waste of time. What is
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: he coming into New York for?
• 20:56
  Speaker 8: I mean, the only reason is it's not comfortable. They
• 21:00
  Speaker 8: don't think that, uh, Constantino is where he should be
• 21:03
  Speaker 8: at in the polling. That's the only reason. I mean,
• 21:05
  Speaker 8: why would the day before, why would you plop into,
• 21:09
  Speaker 8: like you said, a red district, at least the phonic
• 21:12
  Speaker 8: one up by 20 points, Trump one up by 20 points.
• 21:14
  Speaker 8: So I understand it may not be 20, but I mean,
• 21:17
  Speaker 8: if it's at like two or three, which maybe it is,
• 21:22
  Speaker 8: I can't imagine that. I haven't heard that. Um, I mean,
• 21:26
  Speaker 8: then that's really scary, but I.
• 21:28
  Speaker 13: Don't know why.
• 21:29
  Speaker 8: I mean, Contestino was a big supporter to Trump and Vance,
• 21:33
  Speaker 8: so maybe it's a little, gee, we've gone everywhere else.
• 21:36
  Speaker 8: Where else should we go on the last day? I
• 21:38
  Speaker 8: hope it's more that than anything else.
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: You've had your own campaigns and you've been involved in
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: other campaigns. How different is the public polling from the
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: internal polling?
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: It varies.
• 21:55
  Speaker 8: It could be different by a lot or it could
• 21:58
  Speaker 8: be basically on part. I've always found that it's been off,
• 22:03
  Speaker 8: but not by an enormous amount, but it's been off.
• 22:06
  Speaker 8: And if that's, you know, the difference, then that's why
• 22:12
  Speaker 8: we're having all these public fights about polls and everything. And,
• 22:15
  Speaker 8: you know, I always found like the college ones, the Marists,
• 22:18
  Speaker 8: the Quinnipiacs, all of those have been just, they just
• 22:22
  Speaker 8: totally model wrong. I mean, there was a poll the
• 22:24
  Speaker 8: other day, I think it was Marist that They're still
• 22:27
  Speaker 8: using registered voters in their sampling.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, nobody does that.
• 22:31
  Speaker 8: At this point, it's not registered. It's totally likely voters
• 22:35
  Speaker 8: or to some extent, have you already voted and who
• 22:38
  Speaker 8: did you vote for, you know, with early voting? So
• 22:42
  Speaker 8: that on an internal poll, you do not want anything skewed.
• 22:46
  Speaker 8: You want what you really think will be the exact
• 22:49
  Speaker 8: modeling of the turnout based on 22, not 24, not 20,
• 22:51
  Speaker 8: not 18 votes. So you really want to base it
• 22:58
  Speaker 8: on that. And you want to have the right amount
• 23:01
  Speaker 8: of Democratic turnout, Republican turnout.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: All of that.
• 23:04
  Speaker 8: Matters into what the sample is going to be. And
• 23:08
  Speaker 8: that's the true result. I mean, why would you pay
• 23:10
  Speaker 8: all this money to get skewed results? To feel good? No.
• 23:14
  Speaker 8: You use it as a guide, right? Where to advertise,
• 23:17
  Speaker 8: how to advertise, all those kind of things.
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: Now, Rob, in your backyard, the most expensive congressional race
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: for both sides. both for Congressman Lawler and his challenger, Caitlyn.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: They brought in their big guns from both sides yesterday.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: Polls suggest it's neck and neck. What's your sense of
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: what's happening there? Because I have never seen more ads
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: in my life. I wish the election could be tomorrow.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: It's like nonstop. One is Lawler followed by Caitlyn Lawler,
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: Caitlyn Lawler, Caitlyn. It's like enough already.
• 23:52
  Speaker 8: The only thing, Danny the mailman does around here now
• 23:55
  Speaker 8: is put Mike Lawler stuff in mailboxes.
• 24:00
  Speaker 9: It's everywhere.
• 24:02
  Speaker 8: But you know what? Look, this is one of the
• 24:05
  Speaker 8: five races around the country that if it is very
• 24:09
  Speaker 8: close will determine the House. So he's won before. The
• 24:13
  Speaker 8: Jewish bloc of 30,000 votes is going to be critical. Now,
• 24:18
  Speaker 8: he has done everything humanly possible. He's been a very
• 24:21
  Speaker 8: big advocate and ally for them. They too have been
• 24:24
  Speaker 8: for him. I don't see any reason why they would
• 24:27
  Speaker 8: switch on this. So that is significant. And I've seen
• 24:31
  Speaker 8: them switch last minute, trust me, in previous races. So
• 24:35
  Speaker 8: I don't think that's going to happen here. I was
• 24:38
  Speaker 8: with Mike and the team on Sunday and, you know,
• 24:42
  Speaker 8: they're feeling decent right now. I mean, it's tough and
• 24:46
  Speaker 8: it's all about turnout. Forget the polling. Polling doesn't matter now.
• 24:49
  Speaker 8: You know, you have You talk about polls right now.
• 24:52
  Speaker 11: It really doesn't matter.
• 24:53
  Speaker 8: I mean, people have voted. You know, I was online.
• 24:55
  Speaker 8: I voted yesterday. So that doesn't matter. It's the get
• 24:59
  Speaker 8: out the vote operation that matters right now. And his
• 25:02
  Speaker 8: team is very, very good. So I still think I've
• 25:06
  Speaker 8: been holding steady. I still think Mike wins this race
• 25:08
  Speaker 8: by two points.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: Well, thank God you said that, because before that, you
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: weren't instilling a lot of confidence when you said, I
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: still feel decent about this.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: Well, because it is tight.
• 25:21
  Speaker 6: It is tight.
• 25:21
  Speaker 8: And Democrats, you know, I was online yesterday, and it's like,
• 25:25
  Speaker 8: you know, like the zombie movies where they're like, their
• 25:28
  Speaker 8: heads are going back and forth, and they're their arms
• 25:30
  Speaker 8: are like twitching and there's like stuff coming out of
• 25:32
  Speaker 8: their mouth. That's Democrats right now at the polls.
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: They're out, they're out voting.
• 25:39
  Speaker 8: And Republicans, you know, have to catch up.
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: Oh, let's put you on the record then. I don't,
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: you don't need to go through individual races, but, uh,
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: who's going to win the house. Who's going to win
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: the Senate.
• 25:48
  Speaker 8: And by how much, uh, Well, you're taking away my
• 25:53
  Speaker 8: whole show tomorrow at four o'clock.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: But I will tell you this.
• 25:58
  Speaker 8: I do think the House does not hold. I think
• 26:02
  Speaker 8: the Democrats take over the House.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: I do.
• 26:03
  Speaker 8: I think it's going to be in the maybe up
• 26:06
  Speaker 8: to 20 seat range, 15 to 20.
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: They're going to win by 20 seats.
• 26:12
  Speaker 8: So they would net they would be up by like 15.
• 26:14
  Speaker 8: That's I think that's very, very possible.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: But here's the thing.
• 26:18
  Speaker 8: You know, all the redistricting that they did, that is
• 26:21
  Speaker 8: going to help. And they may not hold all of those.
• 26:24
  Speaker 8: But two years from now, when it's a regular presidential turnout,
• 26:27
  Speaker 8: they're going to win those House seats back. So, you know,
• 26:30
  Speaker 8: they're in a good position in two years to take
• 26:32
  Speaker 8: the House back.
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: The Senate, I.
• 26:34
  Speaker 8: Still think, I've been saying it all along, I'm feeling better.
• 26:37
  Speaker 8: I still think the Senate is held by Republicans.
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: Because of Michigan and Alaska?
• 26:44
  Speaker 8: I don't know what's going to happen in Alaska.
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: Michigan.
• 26:47
  Speaker 8: I was just there Monday. I think it's going to
• 26:50
  Speaker 8: be a squeaker. I do think Mike Rogers is going
• 26:52
  Speaker 8: to win. I don't know if that's, I'm crossing my
• 26:54
  Speaker 8: fingers hoping, or I do think he will win because
• 26:58
  Speaker 8: of what we're seeing on the ground there. But Rogers,
• 27:01
  Speaker 8: you know, he's a good candidate, but Abdul, it's frightening, man.
• 27:04
  Speaker 8: I was driving through some areas and you just see
• 27:06
  Speaker 8: these Abdul signs. I just want to like scream at
• 27:09
  Speaker 8: these houses.
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: Like what's wrong with you?
• 27:11
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: All right, Rob, sorry about your show for tomorrow. So

• 29:39
  Speaker 8: really love and that helps me emotionally and personally.
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: We are totally addicted to it. It is such a

  Speaker 2: Except that it's only once in a lifetime, I think.

• 30:16
  Speaker 6: marathon for them, especially when they come in from other countries,
• 30:19
  Speaker 6: like this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them.
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: 160 countries are represented in the marathon. That's amazing. How
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: many countries are there? It's not many more than that.

• 30:39
  Speaker 6: Who also turned 50 this year and their kids will
• 30:42
  Speaker 6: watch them cross that finish line. Millions of people are
• 30:45
  Speaker 6: expected to watch along the route with the NYPD warning
• 30:48
  Speaker 6: of tight security measures, including roving street closures that start
• 30:52
  Speaker 6: tomorrow night as preparation gets underway. More than 15,000 police
• 30:57

  Speaker 8: 141.
• 31:16
  Speaker 5: Do you keep every medal? Like, how does it go?
• 31:19
  Speaker 9: Yeah, so I think, I don't know, I've never been
• 31:22
  Speaker 9: a mom before, but you know how many kids you've had.
• 31:27
  Speaker 9: So like that, right? You reflect on every race. You should,
• 31:30
  Speaker 9: you know, jot down your numbers after every race. So
• 31:33
  Speaker 9: after a while, you know, the list starts to grow
• 31:36
  Speaker 9: and And then it's just part of your routine to
• 31:39
  Speaker 9: track your time, to see how you're trending, how you did.
• 31:43
  Speaker 6: How many marathons does that mean you've run a year
• 31:46
  Speaker 6: since you started running in 2003?
• 31:47
  Speaker 9: Yeah, it was just one a year when I started.
• 31:50
  Speaker 9: Just recently, it's been going up. Because once you're in
• 31:53
  Speaker 9: marathon shape, you're ready to run. My high has been
• 31:57
  Speaker 9: 17 a year.
• 31:57
  Speaker 5: 17 a year.
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: Madonna, my.
• 32:02

• 32:03
  Speaker 6: And New York City, this is his 11th time running
• 32:05
  Speaker 6: New York City and his 14th marathon this year.
• 32:09
  Speaker 5: So this guy is just going all over running marathons.
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
• 32:13
  Speaker 5: And we're talking about the Fifth Avenue mile for me.
• 32:17
  Speaker 5: That's incredible. He really is incredible. He's in great shape,
• 32:20
  Speaker 5: this guy. Great shape.
• 32:22
  Speaker 6: Now, if you're not like Alberto and you don't run
• 32:25
  Speaker 6: 17 marathons a year, runners who have been training have
• 32:29
  Speaker 6: some advice for some first-time marathoners.
• 32:32
  Speaker 9: If you did your training, just enjoy the race. Run
• 32:34
  Speaker 9: your pace. But yeah, take it all in. You know,
• 32:37
  Speaker 9: it's a big parade. New Yorkers love a parade.
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: Just getting to the start line is really the goal.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: Everything after that is bonus.
• 32:42
  Speaker 11: You train in order to finish the race. And once
• 32:45
  Speaker 11: you're in the race and you know it's hard, you
• 32:47
  Speaker 11: picture yourself crossing the finishing line.
• 32:50
  Speaker 5: Nobody's born able to run more than a step. So
• 32:54
  Speaker 5: take it one step at a time and you'll get
• 32:55
  Speaker 5: to the finish line. Which is great.
• 32:57
  Speaker 6: That's what I need to keep in mind as I
• 32:59
  Speaker 6: train for my Fifth Avenue mile, not the marathon. But
• 33:04
  Speaker 6: I'll be at mile eight. Ken Rosato will be at
• 33:06
  Speaker 6: mile 20. You guys will be at the finish line
• 33:09
  Speaker 6: in Central Park, which is going to be, I'm sure...
• 33:12
