| 0:00.0 | With only two days remaining before the final votes are cast, which battleground states are still up for grabs. |
| 0:05.6 | With millions of early ballots already in, which party has the upper hand? |
| 0:10.0 | And today we hit the campaign trail with the woman looking to unseat Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer. |
| 0:15.6 | And we talk with our a-rated pollster and unveil our latest battleground poll. |
| 0:31.8 | Hello and welcome to Election Wire. I'm John Bickley, daily wire editor and chief, |
| 0:35.4 | and I'm joined by senior editor Cabot Phillips. Cabot were just two days away from |
| 0:39.9 | finding out who's going to control the balance of power in Washington. We've got some exclusive polling |
| 0:44.0 | coming. We're going to look at some of the early voting. But first, what have we learned this last week? |
| 0:49.2 | Well, at the risk of sounding like a broken record, we've learned that Republicans still have |
| 0:53.8 | the momentum. It was a very good week for Republicans. Not only are they continuing to poll closer or even |

| 1:36.5 | That's a red wave red tsunami shift right there. That's the kind of shift that you're seeing there. |
| 1:40.4 | You know I love bringing up the betting markets. Very fun to look at those. Oftentimes, they can be |
| 1:45.2 | even better indicator and the end than polls. Right now, the Republicans are now, after being |
| 1:50.8 | two to one underdogs in the Senate earlier this summer, they're now at a 66% chance to win the |
