united states. including the biggest battleground of them all, the state of florida. right now, the fox news decision team cannot yet call the state 75% of all precincts in florida are now reporting. hillary clinton with the slight lead. she has 3,465,00 votes. that's the early number in florida where polls closed just two minutes ago. 75% reporting. the state of florida right now, too close to call. 29 electoral votes up for grabs there. donald trump has said if i do not win florida, i cannot win the pr we could know in just the next few minutes. the decision desk has also not been able to call the extremely important state of pennsylvania. the numbers aren't yet in but, you know, pennsylvania surrounds itself in philadelphia. it is the philadelphia democratic machine that brought thousands out to try to win those collar counties around the city of philadelphia. hundreds of thousands of votes lead expected for democrats that state to donald trump? it has been leaning toward democrats during this season but certainly voters will decide and pennsylvania has been showing in our exit polls

your screen, that is in pembroke pines, florida. hillary clinton. to the best, wilmington, north carolina, a donald trump rally. and as we see at the bottom of your screen, it is the final sprint. as we talk about florida, that is one of eight states, one of most of them key battle grounds where clinton, donald trump and their supporters are barn storming today. in total, holding 16 separate events. again, trump heading to north carolina. he did have a rally in florida. his first of four events in as many states today. he ramped up there his rhetoric about clinton's stamina. he even mocked her star studded event in cleveland, ohio, last night. >> she has no energy. but she can't do it, because they can't get any people. in hershey, pennsylvania, last night, we had arena. we had 27,000 people show up, maybe they couldn't get in. far more than jay-z had. with their free tickets. free tickets. far more. and beyonce. >> also new today, the new early voting data shows nearly 40 million voters cast their ballots up by about 4 million from yesterday and of the 40 million votes, 8 millio

much do it no matter what happened with florida already. donald trump needs to sweep the table on these up for flip a couple they hadn't expected, flip a couple blue states to really have a chance at a road to 270. is it possible? it's possible. our panel includes john busse, and josh letterman, white house reporter for the associated press. they'll be with us into the wee hours of the morning. the first big important thing is the state of florida. as goes florida, if donald trump into the night without much question. if hillary clinton gets florida, that's a different story. because without florida, donald trump himself and everyone on his team has said we can't win it without florida. so what is it in florida? well, it's hispanics. john bussi, it looks to me like ft. lauderdale is going to be extremely important. and maybe the polls might have missed some things. >> they're the hispanic voter turnout has surprised us this election. i'm kind of wondering how it surprised us. surprised us in nevada friday night when people were lined up. they had to process people for two addition

colombia going to be closing. all polling stations in florida will be closed at the top of the hour. that is i merging as the critically important state. pennsylvania close right now. >>> hillary clinton wins in isle with its 20 electric votes. a win for hillary clinton. in new jersey. governor christie is the governor there but hillary clinton is the winner in new jersey with 14 electoral votes. hillary clinton wins in new jersey. in ma we projects will go to hillary clinton. massachusetts. let's move to maryland. ten electoral votes. we project hillary clinton wins in maryland. she'll carry that state. an important win for hillary clinton in the state of maryland. more wins for hillary clinton coming in right now. in rhode island, hillary clinton carries the state of rhode island with it's four electoral votes. delaware, three electoral votes. all going to hillary clinton and the district of colombia, three electoral votes go to hillary clinton. donald trump also has some projected wins, three specifically. we project he'll carry the state of oklahoma with seven electoral votes. d

house reporter for the associated press. they'll be with us into the wee the state of florida. as goes florida, if donald trump gets florida, we have a race into the night without much question. if hillary clinton gets florida, that's a different story. because without florida, donald trump himself and everyone on his team has said we can't win it without florida. so what is it in florida? well, it's hispanics. john bussi, it looks to me like extremely important. and maybe the polls might have missed some things. >> they're urban centers. the hispanic voter turnout has surprised us this election. i'm kind of wondering how it surprised us. surprised us in nevada friday night when people were lined up. they had to process people for two additional hours after the polls closed. >> harry reid get out the vote machine. >> it apparently worked, right? vote sort of tilt the balance here, maybe a little unexpectedly, in favor of hillary clinton. a lot of those people voted early. we'll sue that really fairly soon, i think. >> what are democrats thinking now past the closing point. what are the

have just gotten a word from a number of democratic operatives, one who calls this in florida shocking. democrats believed and have believed throughout the day that florida was in their hands, that broward county, the i-4 corridor with all of the new latino immigrants who are voting for the first time, as much as 20% of the electorate maybe latino would run away with it as a result of it. why aren't they? here is the reason. in the reliably red rural counties across the state from the panhandle down the west coast, down in ft. myers, naples and lee county, are all of those republican smaller areas, donald trump is crushing mitt romney's numbers from before. mitt romney may have won with 69%. donald trump is getting higher. rural is balanng vote in that state. african-american turnout in miami-dade county is low. some calls out of miami-dade county, about half of broward county is yet to report. it's believed broward county will go largely toward hillary clinton, but florida is very much in question now. if donald trump can get florida, this could be a very long night, and he is leading

katy perry and en route to florida, campaigned briefly cut short due a torrential downpour donald trump held events in florida and north carolina earlier where his wife melania introduced him. >>> we start the hour with an ever-tightens race pap new poll out this afternoon gives clinton a one-point lead nationally. well within the poll's margin of error. clinton started her day in florida making two stops where she urged supporters to vote early. >> i've got to ask you. are you ready? [ cheers ] how many of you have already voted? [ cheers ] okay. so that means you've got time to get everybody else to get out and vote. right? so let's get out! less vote for the future. let's vote what we want for our country and our children and our grandchildren. got bless you! >> someone isn't going to have a voice tuesday. clinton is headed to pennsylvania where she joins katy perry who does have a voice. crucial for her winning the battleground state. kristen, the finalized schedule for clinton for the final three days of campaigning. has anything changed? >> reporter: have are changes, ali. p

has florida, but is that enough? >> yeah. the polls are closed here, and the end of the contentious race is finally near. will it be hillary clinton? will it be donald trump? we've got your complete election coverage right here on fox 13. >> you're watching fox 13 and the 11:00 news starts now. >> good evening, everybody. welcome back. i'm kelly ring. >> i'm mark wilson. thanks for joining us. what a night it's been so far. we're not done. here are your presidential reporting all across our country has donald trump with 49%, a three percentage point lead over hillary clinton. that measures out to a little more than two and a half million votes so far, but florida, the big story here locally. here are your presidential numbers in the state of florida. with 99% of the precincts reporting. fox 13's political editor craig patrick calling this race at 10:06 in favor of donald trump tonight. 51% to hillary clinton's 49%. about 130 donald trump in florida. a big win for him indeed here. how that factors into the national race, well, we don't quite know yet. we're watching another big race

coming this hour about what the vote looks like right now in florida. really important stuff. >> good stuff. thank you. >>> moody's analytics has correctly predicted every election since 1980. their new prediction includes an exact vote count. we have breaking news that will dominate tomorrow's campaign coverage. it could be the most important information that we will have before votes are counted a week from tonight. and that information indicates that a week from tonight, at this very hour, we might already know who the next president of the united states will be. >> i wasn't going to get started on trump. but i think maybe i better take my coat off. >> it's time for new leadership. >> this guy is going to be your champion? >> donald trump is the definition of the abuse of power. >> this is a man who thinks that he is better than president reagan, better than president obama. literally better than anybody, i guess. >> i've led a great life, and i truly love our country. >> this guy? >> we just heard from alisha, she was ms. universe. can we just stop for a minute and reflect on the

touchdown earlier tonight with the carry. >> todd: this florida state team, not going to be able to play in the acc championship game, probably still going to get a very good bowl assignment, maybe even a new year's six bowl. >> joe: if clemson wins, they go to the college football playoff. so, then you go with the highest ranked acc orange bowl. that could likely be florida state. >> jo >> todd: going to be without dalvin cook next year, but a very talented team coming back. >> joe: next sunday, we're going to have the college football playoff selection show. it's going to be a four-hour special. to exclusively reveal the college football playoff semifinal match-ups. this year, it's the chick-fil-a fiesta bowl. we're going to sit back, find out which game we're calling here. but it's going to be a wild ride of controversy between now and then. because things have gotten wacky in the big ten, where the perceived second-best team in the country will not be playing in the big ten title game, instead, it's going to be wisconsin and penn state. and then, you've got things in the pac-12

florida. that's a very close race. obviously it hasn't been called yet. trump has to win that and move forward. he certainly matched that organization, that state, it's a dead-even race. the key thing here is both senator paul and marco rubio who have won re-election, both said they weren't going to run after they ran for president. and they basically allow us to keep the senate. the indiana seat is also very important. >> if you keep it, they're a large part of it. >> very large part of it. obviously it's with a one or two-seat margin. it's very critical that they basically are willing to deal with the other side. >> kelly ayotte up in the state of new hampshire, that was a long, hard slog. how did that happen? a lot of money. >> over $100 million. $130 million for a state that's four electoral votes. it's a gigantic sum of money. and reagan spent in 1984 to run a presidential campaign. it's enormous amount of money. very hardly, you know, two very significant players. and we hope kellyanne -- it's still close. >> the plea from republicans has been if hillary clinton wins the sen

touchdown earlier tonight with the carry. >> todd: this florida state team, not going to be able to play in the acc championship game, probably still going to get a very good bowl assignment, maybe even a new year's six bowl. >> joe: if clemson wins, they go to the college football playoff. so, then you go with the highest ranked orange bowl. that could likely be florida state. >> joe: t >> todd: going to be without dalvin cook next year, but a very talented team coming back. >> joe: next sunday, we're going to have the college football playoff selection show. it's going to be a four-hour special. to exclusively reveal the college football playoff semifinal match-ups. this year, it's the chick-fil-a fiesta bowl. we're going to sit back, find out which game we're calling here. but it's going to be a wild ride of controversy between now and then. because things have gotten wacky in the big ten, where the perceived second-best team in the country will not be playing in the big ten title game, instead, it's going to be wisconsin and penn state. and then, you've got things in the pac-12

over performing romney donald trump is getting 67 prkts. five park . >> let's take a look at florida. they are going to be closing at the top of the hour. >> we have some votes in florida. always fun when you see the first votes come into the wall. obviously some votes have come in. some county's early votes they load them up. so what are we going to be looking for overall in florida? that is the early lead right now and what are you going to look for number one? this is your big democratic stronghold down here. to win florida hillary clinton has to run it up. going back in time florida was the closest state in the 2012 race. president obama eked out a narrow victory. the early voting is critical. you heard the panel talking earlier about democrats. they think they amped up the lati latino vote to help them there. how does donald trump do in palm beach county? he thinks he's going to be very well in florida. is he going to win palm beach county? i think not. it is traditionally very democratic. but the margins within the counties matter. if instead of 60 already 40 he can make it a l

on twitter and he identified moments ago the% of the state of florida. there is deep and abiding anxiety within trump tower about what they're seeing in florida because they know-- and have said over and over-- there is no trump path to the presidency without florida's 29 electoral votes, and they are deeply concerned about the latino turnout for hillary clinton, plus a softening of suburban, college-educated women for donald trump. and in that reason, trump has urged florida supporters to get to the polls. and it's a two-tiered system in florida. 67 counties, 10 of them on the central time zone, and some of those counties don't close until 9:00 p.m. eastern. so that strategic urging from trump has real value in those counties opinion because mitt romney in 2012, cleared more than 190,000 votes over barack obama. trump needs to find every vote he can in florida. hence, the urging of supporters to get there before the polls close. scott and norah. >> pelley: major garrett for us tonight. major, thank you very much. let's go over to nancy cordes, who is at the jacob javitz center h

with events in new hampshire, north carolina, and florida. for the democrats, all hands on deck. president obama is back in florida after stumping there three days ago. as for the ticket, tim kaine will hold three events in wisconsin. secretary clinton has stopped in philadelphia before heading to ohio and new hampshire. and fresh off another star-studded event, the clinton campaign is out with two new ads this morning featuring republican military veterans, they will air during sunday night football. >> i spent 22 years in the air force, and i was a republican for every one of them. i was rationalizing donald trump's behaviors until i heard that tape. that was the last straw. i don't want my granddaughter thinking it's okay to be treated that way and my grandson thinking it's that how you should treat women. that scares me, that scares me a lot, so hillary has my vote. >> with just two days left, we're covering every angle. jolean is in ohio with student voters. mark murray is right here to break down the map to 270. jacob rascon is in denver with the trump team. we begin with

this hour of msnbc live. up next, "andrea mitchell reports" live from ft. lauderdale, florida. >> thank you, tamron. right now on a special edition live from ft. lauderdale. the flight for florida, candidates and surrogates in the state today. hillary clinton here before heading west, trying to avoid the e-mail by ramping up attacks on donald trump including this response to a protester tuesday night against her husband. >> you know, i'm tired of the negative, dark, divisive, dangerous vision and behavior of people who support donald trump. >> change-maker? donald trump, three stops in florida today after campaigning in wisconsin. trying to flip the state with an unusual appeal to early voters. >> this is a message for any democratic voter and who are having a bad case of buyer's remorse, if you live here or in michigan or pennsylvania or minnesota, you can change your vote to donald trump to make america great again. >> obama speaks. the president's first comments on the fbi e-mail review. >> i know that she is somebody who has always looked out for the interests of america. the americ

battleground. let's take a look at florida because we've made a change in the sunshine state. 99% of the vote in the state of florida and cbs news now estimates this as likely republican. john. >> donald trump needed to win florida, ohio. he has won ohio, if florida goes his way. his stratus path he's picking up the state for that path and we still have the question mark with red belt states, wisconsin, michigan and of course pennsylvania. >> we should just point out that the electoral vote number just jumped to 190 for hillary clinton because we just called hawaii, the state of hawaii the allo lathe aloha state. let's talk about florida for a moment and some of these additional battleground states. i think if you've been watching cbs this morning or cbs evening news or face the nation you would have heard the clinton campaign saying she felt very good about that state because they had turned up the hispanic vote. theyn't said their modeling show, they found a large portion of that new vote hispanic, over 900,000 hispanics voted early. >> and they banked some voits. >> they told us t

were on anthony weiners laptop. >> it all comes down to florida. we have new numbers and projections with our pollster matt towery and concerns about voter vej strags broad this time in pennsylvania. charley belcher is back with the pulse of the people. this is money, power & politics. >>>and here we go. merissa, we've had a wild week. a lot of breaking news that's shaking up the race as with speak. >> certainly so. the polls show it will be tight and may hang on florida once again. >> florida. well, and tight. i'm having flash backs to this guy from a few years ago. let take a look. are we going to see this? tell me we're not going to see this. >> we better not see that guy. we do not want a recount like back in 2000. out, craig. >> it was a mess. we don't have the hanging chat. we don't have to worry about that. but you can't rule out the possibility of a recount because the polls in the early voting returns are just that close. >> that's right. some five million people voted before the weekend even started. that means more than half the vote is probably already in and the returns

surprises just yet. this campaign closely watching the big bell weather states, florida, north carolina, ohio. a lot of them too close to call right now. but those are going tbe continue watching this race unfold. we have a crazy crowd here erupting in cheer frequently tonight as they watch their results. back to you. >> early going, kerry, we you sai the wins piling up for donald trump. but now we have another punch coming the other way from clinton. cnn reporting ohio, massachusetts, maryland, new jersey, rhode island, delaware, and washington, d.c. all wins for clinton. >> speaking of trump -- >> not one surprise in the >> illinois is her home state. big senate race there which duckworth is going to win in a walk and will be a big piece to democrats taking back the control of the senate. these are all stanch democratic states. we're glad to get them in their column, no doubt. but no big surprises. >> we're hearing mississippi, missouri, oklahoma, and tennessee all going for donald trump. [laughter] >> again, no surprises. >> i mean, think if you would donald trump i would be shocked.

tonight with the carry. >> todd: this >> todd: this florida state team, not going to be able to play in the acc championship game, probably still going to get a very good bowl assignment, maybe even a new year's six bowl. to the college football playoff. so, then you go with the highest ranked acc team, to fill the orange bowl. that could likely be florida state. >> joe: th >> todd: going to be without dalvin cook next year, but a very talented team coming back. >> joe: next sunday, we're going to have the college football playoff selection show. it's going to be a four-hour this year, it's the chick-fil-a peach bowl and the playstation fiesta bowl. we're going to sit back, find out which game we're calling here. but it's going to be a wild ride of controversy between now and then. because things have gotten wacky in the big ten, where the perceived second-best team in the country will not be playing in the big ten title game, instead, it's going to be wisconsin and penn state. and then, you've got things in and start framing the arguments, as deondre francois -- you think it means just

has been a surge of his m hispanic voters coming from florida and colorado. it's all about getting people out to the polls today, his supporters, to try to counter that surge. we'll see if he can do it. >> all right. john roberts. >> thank you, john. >>> lady gaga and john bon jovi joining hillary clinton for her final act in crucial north carolina. >> yeah. clinton leaning on her star-studded surrogates to ramp up last-minute support in a three-state blitz. >> mike emmanuel is live for us in chappaqua, new york, where clinton landed just moments ago. mike, we carried that landing live here on fox news in the last hour. >> reporter: that's right, heather, clayton, good morning to you. good morning from chappaqua where the campaign literally wrapped up a few minutes ago. hillary clinton's plane landing in white plains, new york, a few minutes from here. she went to four different events in three different states. there was star power involved with john bon jovi and lady gaga in north carolina. clinton talked about this moment in history. >> when your kids and grandkids ask what you

>> joe: stevenson, who had the touchdown earlier tonight with the carry. >> todd: this florida state team, not going to be able to play in the acc championship game, probably still going to get a very good bowl assignment, maybe even a new year's six bowl. >> joe: if clemson wins, they go to the college football playoff. so, then you go with ranked acc team, to fill the orange bowl. that could likely be florida state. >> jo >> todd: going to be without dalvin cook next year, but a very talented team coming back. >> joe: next sunday, we're going to have the college football playoff selection show. it's going to be a four-hour special. to exclusively reveal the college football playoff semifinal match-ups. peach bowl and the playstation fiesta bowl. we're going to sit back, find out which game we're calling here. but it's going to be a wild ride of controversy between now and then. because things have gotten wacky in the big ten, where the perceived second-best team in the country will not be playing in the big ten title game, instead, it's going to be wisconsin and penn state. a

the building we go. the state of florida. we have as too close to call. 29 electoral votes. pennsylvania, too early to call. 20 electoral votes. new hampshire, too early to call. 4 highly fought-over electoral votes. illinois goes to the clinton column. of course the home originally of hillary clinton. a big state, 20 electoral votes, part of the blue wall, as is new jersey, the most densely populated state in the union with 14 electoral votes. that goes to clinton, as does the baystate, the commonwealth of massachusetts, 11 electoral votes. adding to the trump bloc in the south is tennessee. we're projecting when all the votes are counted, he will receive those 11 electoral votes. maryland reliably maryland goes to hillary clinton, ten electoral votes there. alabama nine electoral votes going to trump. oklahoma in the midwest will go to donald trump, 7 electoral votes. back up we go to new england, the state of connecticut, the nutmeg state, seven electoral votes going to hillary clinton. mississippi weiay down south gog to donald -- okay, we have awarded it to donald trum

. florida, too close. ohio, too close to call. georgia, one of the early closes, too close to call. north carolina, a genuine battleground. i'm sorry, georgia, too close to call. new hampshire, too close to call. virginia, too close to call. missouri, too early to call. and maine, too early to call. clinton ahead. >> interesting, we've only got about 4% of the vote in in missouri and in maine. that gives you a hint as to why those are too early to call. but the call is not early, it's close in pennsylvania, new hampshire, florida, north carolina, virginia, ohio, georgia. a lot of uncertainty right now. and trump really locking up the traditional red states. the democratic pipe dream that texas will some day go purple if not blue, that pipe dream stays in the pipe for another cycle. >> look at the continuity -- contiguousness of the republican support in the electoral college. all except for that one south carolina, all connected. >> that is the red wall of the gop from north to south and almost from east to west. we're waiting for the western time zones obviously. back inside here in the

win florida fairly and comfortably. i did ask him what he thought about the election cycle. >> it's the nastiest in modern- day political history in this country. there is too much ugliness and because of that, it's very come together so we can get something done. >> reporter: and again, senator nelson, just one of the many speakers who will take the stage behind me and just a little bit. tampa mayor bob buckhorn will also speak, edna rains, sean shaw, janet crews. a lot of people are going to be here to talk about what they are hoping will be a clinton victory tonight. at t to you. >>> now to the republicans and their presidential nominee, donald trump. florida is a must win for trump if he has any hope of winning the presidency. nollie michael joins us from a trump watch party and i am curious about the are. what is the room like? >> reporter: lots of energy, lots of passion and excitement. the republican party is throwing quite the party. we caught up with congressman buchanan earlier who says what he thinks trump should be our next president and why voters like donald trump. >>

voters and especially african-american voters. the state that we are watching, florida, george, a lot of returns are coming in. look at this. we have 40% in, and -- florida. it's been going back and forth. so much early vote. that's why we're seeing so much come in. and neck and neck. it's been going back and forth between clinton and trump. some of the key counties, i mentioned hillsborough county, we don't have anything there yet. miami-dade county, a county that is two-thirds hispanic. obama won it by 25 points back in, four years ago and it's almost exactly the same margin now. >> and that's really interesting. the clinton campaign told us that was right on the bubble. they would have to win that by 24%, 25% to have a chance of winning the state. just about right there right now. >> absolutely. and, i mean, it's going back and forth, every minute or so, it goes back and forth. >> i know you are going to keep an eye on that. the polls have closed in the state of ohio. such a key state for so many different election cycles. no republican has ever won the white house without winning the
