in california it's 24%. homelessness is growing up across the country up 1% between 2016 and 2017 nowhere is it more in california. one of the most prominent havens is in downtown las angeles. a homeless community called skid row. people live openly on the streets in camps in tent cities. in 2010 more than half mlion people were homeless. most of them were in california. followed by new york, florida, and texas. in california the average home price is around $600,000. you have to earn over $100,000 per year to rent an average 2 bedroom apartment. homelessness has caused a rise of crime in neighborhoods. they believe some of this is due to proposition 46 passed by governor brown. critics say now drug addicts escape punishment for crimes to support their habits. any theft under $950 may not be subject to jail time. steve. steve: all right, thanks. we talked about crime. there is so muche to explore. let's get back to the question if california under jerry brown is a model to the rest of the country. it shows w

this is the fun california and this is the shit california. why do you want the shit california? >> we believe that's the best part of california. it's based on ruralness. >> it's got to feel nice once you separate to be free from all that excessive tax revenue there in silicon valley and los angeles county. >> we'll have san diego county. >> because you want to keep the chargers? >> they're gone. >> you don't even have the ( bleep )ing chargers? >> there is one person who doesn't like the two-state solution. >> we're going to campaign in every part of california. >> what do you say about californians who voted for trump? if you don't like it in america, get out. you stole that, too. how bad can it be? >> my biggest fear is a lot of people are going to die which is what happened in the civil war. >> now we're talking civil war? >> that's not california. californians are hippies. will it be hard to fight a civil war if you don't eat protein or believe in guns? >> new california will bomb the shit out of you. this civil war has more than two sides. tim draper has introduced a third

california is a huge state. and it also speaks to where the country is going. >> it's kindf country. >> it is. the fifth larnlest economy in the world. but it also speaks to where the the coasts and the middle.alk that has obviously been a trend we've seen for decades. but it is even more solidified or illustrated with the kind of election we're having. >> so considering what's happening, though, with this jungle primary, can you still consider this california as a bellwether to what could happen come november? >> no. >> it's a state that opposes a lot of trump's policies, right? he's got to be wching this closely. >> it's a liberal -- i think you would agree wit me. it's a very liberal state. the governor's race, you have 27 candidates competing. i know that because i read that somewhere. i didn't count them. but 27 candidates competing. so it's very -- it's a different system, it's a different stat but what uh it does measure, i think, is enthusiasm. and of course, democrats are going to be enthusiastic in cal

california. fresno to the san diego border would be considered southern california, and the coastline would be considered california. the idea four years ago did not get enough signatures, so he tried again with this new cal 3 initiative. he ie said in april about the motivation behind it. >> it doesset to make a lot sense to me. it seems to me like it would take a long time, probably cost a lot of money, and i am not sure is that mucof an advantage outside of creating a political advantage. >> i think it is a ploy to split california's electoral board-- electoral votes. >> i apologize for that. that was not the correct soundbite. that was different opinions about this particular initiative. if i had to paraphrase with the organizer of the account 3 initiator had to say about it. he says california residents are going to get better presentation. theyg to be to ge state government. a big issue that mentio on the calendar for three website is that approving a split of california would have plations

california may play >> sean: california may play the key defining role in deciding which party will the u.s. congress and what is not developing into the single most important midterm election in our lifetime. we're going to bring you updates as we get them. just breaking, the fire deputy andrew mccabe reportedly is asking the u.s. senate in exchange for testimony on comey comey's handling of the clinton rope. well, he wants immunity.

>> incredibly significant, not just for california but . national cox in second place may actually mean the republican turnout for the congressional sea that nancy pelosi is counting on, those five seats in california to turn the house, goes out the 'swindow. so i really, really important. >> how did this happen? did trump's endorsement play a g role? >> i think it helped. cox has beenti g support from republican establishment folks for the last few months. he did succeed in getting, you know, support from kevin mccarthy who is thel hope house speaker. he's been working very hard to get a lot of endorsements. and i think a couple of tweets from trump i going to help, especially in a race where you have travis allen, state assembly men who are not well-knownat ide. >> and christine, you're in california. you've been covering the congressional raises. sean alluded to this, if sean cox is in the top t two,t could bring out more gop voters. what are some of the most competitive and interesting congressional raises that we shunuld be looking at

california. tonight we are bringing you live election coverage from across the state. our top race tonight is of course the california governor race. >> here's a look at some of the top candidatesn the governor's race. gavin newsom, california's current is in the governor, tony, the former may of los angeles, and john cox, the top rope looking in the race, describing himself as a businessman, not a politician. he is supported by president trump. cox is trying to qualify for a two-person runoff for governor in november, and he may be able to do so if the democratic candidates split the vote. >> gavin newsom he is the front runner in tonight's governors race. >> our stone is that is elected headquarters tonight, jr, what is it like there? >> i can tell you the campaign party is underway. i can see people off in the distance with their drinks in hand. he is the front runner here, so there's quite a bit of excitement. we are joined by lieutenant gavin newsom's campaign manager. tell me, what is your

so california is showing that dealing with climate is good for the economy, not bad. >> whitaker: california is booming. under brown, it has grown from the ninth largest economy in the world to the fifth. it's now bigger than the u.k., with a budget surplus of more than $8 billion. when you first came into office this time, california faced more than $50 billion in debt and deficits. there were headlines that california was going to be the first "failed state." >> jerry brown: the fact is, we cut the budget, we raised taxes, and the economy roared back. >> whitaker: you cut the budget. you raised taxes. these days, that sounds like a prescription for political suicide? >> jerry brown: you've got to pay some taxes. you have to invest. we need to invest in the technology of tomorrow or somebody else will. and that somebody is china, india, and other countries. you're not going to poor-mouth yourself to the future. and roads cost money, that's called taxes. r.& d. cost money, colleges cost money-- schools, childcare, all of that. we're a rich country and we can handle it. >> whitaker: but calif

it will get exciting, california. stay tuned, gavin newsom for california. >> we are expecting him to come out shortly, but in the meantime, former mayor antonio villaraigosa is speaking live now, let's go to that. >> we ought to take a good hard look at la. city of 4 million. 15 councilmembers. there are two women. we have to change that. we have to do something. we have to empower women in this town. we have to have more women. if you know these women, you know -- i'm not that tall, i'm, monica, thank you. for your friendship, your support, for coming out tonight. a lot of people are getting elected tonight, and you could have been anywhere, and you are here. i just want to say, i want to work with you. empower more women, stand up for the notion that in a democratic country like ours, the best country in the world, there should be a lot more willing on our city councils. stand up for families. stand up for women's reproductive health. freedom. stand up for equal pay for equal work. stand up for early child educatio

look at what's happened in california. you have lawsuits against this administration on everything from environmental policy to immigration policy. and you have the state declaring itself virtually a sanctuary state that does not have to cooperate with federal investigation -- federal immigration officials. you know, that's charged up the left to a certain extent because there is anwful lot of energy on the left to oppose president trump, but i do think that there are a lot of voters who look at it as just a little bit overheated. >> lanhee, i am reminded the president of the united states is apparently up and watching television coverage tonight. he just wrote on twitter, "mitch mcconnell announced he will cancel the senate's august recess. great, maybe the democra will finally get something done other than their acceptance of high crime and high taxes. we need border security." lanhee, just this morning he said the border wall was under way, which it is not. you pick 'em. >> a lot of staffers were upset today they're not

california is an anomaly. you have so many different unique factors here that i don't think the perceived lack of enthusiasm or lack of turnout in s sn to be indicative of what's happening in the rest of the country. i think the democrats are fine. i have no dog in this fight, but it seems to me that their success at the ground level with county commissioners, with state house and state senate races seems to me these people are enthusiastic and driven to vote like republicans will be, but the democratic enthusiasm might be spread throughout more states. >> that's something i would actually really focus on. what the republicans have done is tapped away from the plan. remb cr land, they were going to test whether or not the tax plan sticks to the republican. that failed. their tactic shifts to anti-immigrant rhetoric. 14,000 were anti-immigrant, giving up the base. democrats have to come up with a stronger economic messagend stronger clarity why the anti-immigrant is not part of the american dna. results show to

more peoplre leaving california than coming to california and these are mostly bread winn middle class folks. john cox has to get serious money together.a luckily he is wealthy developer and so he's got a reported wealth of00 million. so he certainly will be there with his own money. republican governor's association would love nothing better to give gavin newsom a hard time because gavin's notre y for governor, we know that. he's running for president. aomatically when y're governor of california you arec nsidered presidential material, even jerry brown thought so. >> he has sgrd on this pro he's not running for president, but as you know we can't predict the future. oh >>yeah. >> let me ask about john cox again. since we're speaking of presidents, president trump endorsedim during the election. we saw john cox rise in the polls shortly after that. will the republican national committee ask president trump to come the california to campaign on behalf of john cox in the governor's rac in other races around the state? >> probably trump would be best ounty. in orange c trump had he had t

and to truly take back california. which is what we're going to do in 2018. >> mr. newsom, the biggest sacrifice. >> i think this is a privilege, a gift. if i look back at my life, if i do nothing else, if could i look back honestly and reflect upon it and say i sacrificed for my four extraordinary kids, it was life worth living. every day i try the approximate the best father i can be, my wife is here today. to me that should be all of our goals. to take care of the next generation, to raise our kids to be healthy and strong. >> it was the best of times. it was the worst of types. one of the best decisions i ever made was to be involved in public life. first as a planning commissioner, then a city councilwoman, and then a member of the legislature, and finally as a state constitutional officer. it is true that i made two and a half times as have in the private sector. yes, there are business women, too. the. >> i have three of them in my family. >> in reality, i really do believe that bits the joy and the sense of ful

that is california. california's vision and americans values are one and the same but values as you know, are under assault. we are engaged in an epic battle and it looks like voters will have a real choice this november. between a governor who will stand up to donald trump and a foot soldier in his war on california. mark my words, i have never backed down from a fight and neither have you. and we know california will always be better than washington worst impulses. you know, you know, the great california poet by the name of kendrick lamar. just checking to see if you are paying attention. he once said be humble, be humble. it is hard not to be humble when you are running to secede jerry brown, one of the most accomplished governors in america. he took california to firm, footing. no longer a state of state. it is our job to grab the baton and sprint boldly towards a brighter future. starting with this, we can no longer tolerate the unjust equilibrium of economic wealth inequality. we are the most pros

what is happening in california? this is a state that has gone so far left, they would not give the state party endorsement to dianne feinstein, their senior senator. >> hard to poll but right now it looks like she is settling kevin de leon's hatch. i don't think he is competitive. i don't think she needs to be out there to have a victory party because it looks like it's going to be prey clear for her her. i think the republicans will get a shot out, they will get shut out of the senate race most likely. the governor's race, as peter doocy said, and upset for the republicans to even be on the ballot. to even be on the ballot in november. that tells you a lot about about their chances out there. but i would say this, as the great philosopher steve perry said, the wheel in the sky keeps on turning. so you look at someone like martha roby,onight is being forced into a runoff -- >> shannon: republican alabama -- >> birmingham. >> shannon: on endorsed president trump. >> it goes this way. here's the district that republic

we started with california. our first call from california, robert from marina del rey, republican line. you're on with our guest. go ahead. >> caller: yeah, i wanted to make a couple of comments. first was, i think it's a good sign for the republicans that cox finished second. it will help those house seats where the democrats are doubling down on picking up congressiona county. the republicans were also able to recall the state senator, knight, in orange county, which is another good sign for the republicans. the other comment, i'm curious as to what will happen with de leon polling so badly but finishing second, regardless. will he pull out of the race and endorse feinstein, or would he continue as the second-place finisher? >> leah askanam. >> so, your first point about finishing, about john cox finishing second and that helping turnout down ballot, that's basically the reason why t' not necessarily because john cox is going to be the next governor from california, but rather, because in a race where, especi

that would just be called california. even if the measure passes, it would need congressional approval. the last time a state was divided was in 1863. that is when west virginia broke away from virginia to become a separate state. >>> we learning new details on the man accused of deserting the air force and disappearing 35 years. he is being held on charges of desertion. he was arrested at his home in daly city less we. people who worked with him told the chronicle he was known as tim o'byrne and worked at the california university. coworkers told the newspaper he was smart, honest and could make difficult concepts easy to understand. he had held the top security clearances and there were fears he had been kidnapped by russia because of what he knew. >>> the san francisco mayor's race is still not decided. london breed, the board of supervisors president, has a slim lead over former state senator, mark leno. the test count shows london breed with 43% of the te leading by only 1861 votes. the department of elections has on

the eyes of the nation are on california today. the democrats want to take the house this year and our state will likely play a major role. >> the key competition is who will replace governor jerry brown. >> it is a very crowded field. currently lieutenant governor gavin newsom is leading the polls. we are following the last push by the candidates.! they have been very busy as you mentioned. four hours until the polls close. the big question is who will take the number two spot in the race for governor because by all accounts, we expect gavin newsom will be first. the most recent poll said it has him in the lead with 33 percent. john cox from san diego is second at 20 percent. former los angeles mayor antonio villaraigosa is following at 13 percent. john chong and elaine easton are also running but they are not projected to make the top two tonight. tonight's race for the second spot will likely come down between these two, republican cox and the a rugosa, a democrat. cox has seen his popularity increase in the past few minutes --

the ultimate thing i would say about california is california is a country. it's not like a regular say. there's some of these districts where republicans are super, super motivated, and some where democrats are off the charts and those where for some reason they're not as motivated. they're spread out and different parts of the state really have different political influences. so add that to the complicated nature. >> cory, as a democrat, are you optimistic tonight? > there are two things. >> that was a yes or no question. >> i'm going to hedge my way through this. there are a lot of people who perceive that democrats get locked out of races and democrats screw the pooch who he have an opportunity to take back the house or do things in these elections. i look at it from a slightly different perspective. i don't see how we're spinning enthusiasm to be a bad thing. that's going to spill over into the suburbs in pennsylvania, play a role in north carolina, be in georgia, in a senate race in tennessee. yes, we may have a race or two we should pick ipcalifornia w

in california, the republican running for senate in california got 9% of the vote. could not get into double digits. 9% of the vote. the republican was crushed by incumbent democratic senator diane feinstein. she will face another democrat, a state senator, who got 11% of the vote. the republican party got wiped out in the senate race in california. no republican has ever done worse running for senate in california. and what has senator feinstein been doing during the trump presidency? investigating donald trump on the senate intelligence committee and investigating donald trump and his administration on the senate judiciary committee. and as a member of the senate judiciary committee she had the memorable moment in the cabinet room where she got donald trump to follow her lead and abandon the republicans and join diane feinstein on daca. >> what about a clean daca bill now? >> i have no problem. that's what dick is saying. we're going to come out with daca and do immediately phase two, which would be comprehensive. >> would you be amenable to that? >> yeah i think
