TOLD THAT GEOPOLITICS DOES NOT FACTOR INTO VOTERS DECISIONS SO MUCH. WE HAVE A GOOD NUMBER OF DOMESTIC ISSUES THAT ARE DRIVING FOLKS TO THE POLLS THIS YEAR FROM ABORTION TO THE ECONOMY, TO THE BORDER, TO WHAT EXTENT IS THIS GETTING PEOPLE'S ATTENTION? >> THE INTERESTING THING WE FIND IS THAT THE FIGURE YOU CITED A 51% OF SUPPORT FOR SENDING AID TO ISRAEL, IT HAS DROPPED 10 POINTS SINCE THE BEGINNING OF NOVEMBER RIGHT AFTER THE ISRAEL HAMAS WAR THIS IS A SIGNAL THAT A TO UKRAINE HAS STAYED STEADY AT ABOUT 57%, BUT AMERICANS ENTHUSIASM FOR HELPING ISRAEL IN THE WAY THAT THEY WERE HAS BEEN CONDUCTED HAS BROUGHT AND THAT SHOULD BE A RED BLINKING LIGHT TO DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS WHO ARE SORT OF ALL IN FOR ISRAEL WITHOUT CONDITIONS. KAILEY: WHILE WE ARE SEEING WAITING INTEREST OR PASSION IN SUPPORTING ISRAEL WE ARE SEEING AN UPTICK ON ANOTHER ISSUE AND THAT IS ABORTION, WE SPOKE WITH THE U.S. POLITICS ANALYST OVER AT MORNING CONSULT, OUR PARTNER AND THIS IS WHAT HE SAID ON THAT TOPIC. >> WE SOLVED THIS WAVE -- WE SAW IN THIS WAY OF SURVEYS AN INCREASE AMONG VOTERS WHOSE ISSUE IS ABORTION, THAT SEEMS TO BE A BIT OF AN OUT FOR PRESIDENT BIDEN, ESPECIALLY IN ARIZONA, ONE OF THE PLACES WHERE HE IS DOING THE WORST. THE ECONOMY IS TIED WITH IMMIGRATION BUT ABORTION DOUBLED SINCE WE STARTED DOING THIS. KAILEY: IN ARIZONA, JUST TODAY, IT SEEMS CIRCUMSTANCES MAY BE STARTING TO CHANGE. HE WAS REFERRING TO IN ARIZONA, THE SUPREME COURT ALLOWING A LAW FROM BACK IN THE CIVIL WAR ERA BEFORE ARIZONA WAS A STATE THAT BASICALLY OUTLAWS ALL ABORTIONS TO TAKE HOLD AND THE ARIZONA STATE HOUSE TODAY REPEALED IT, IT NEEDS TO GO THROUGH THE SENATE BUT IS EXPECTED TO GO THROUGH BUT ABORTIONS CAN TAKE PLACE UP TO 15 WEEKS, IS THIS A BLESSING FOR DONALD TRUMP AND KARI LAKE WHO IS RUNNING FOR SENATE? >> YES AND IT IS A BLESSING FOR REPUBLICANS WHO WANTED TO WON REELECTION. THE ARIZONA SENATE ONLY NEEDS TWO REPUBLICANS AND ALL OF THE DEMOCRATS SO IT IS LIKELY TO GO THROUGH, LIKELY REPUBLICANS FROM THE SUBURBS OF AMERICA. THERE ARE A LOT OF CRIES OF RETRIAL BUT IN POLITICS FOR BOTH PARTIES, THERE IS THE CONVICTIONS AND KEEPING YOUR JOB AND THEY DO WANT TO KEEP THEIR JOB AND THEY WANT KARI LAKE TO BE ELECTED TO THE SENATE AND THEY WANT DONALD TRUMP TO WIN. THERE IS A REFERENDUM ON THE BALLOT IN NOVEMBER THAT WOULD CODIFY ABORTION RIGHTS UP TO 15 WEEKS WHICH IS SOMEWHAT POPULAR MODERATE POSITION ON ABORTION. THIS WAS -- OUR POLL SHOWED THAT ALONE WAS GOING TO DRIVE DEMOCRATS AND INDEPENDENTS TO THE POLLS, SUPPORT FOR ABORTION RIGHTS IN ARIZONA JUMPED 10 POINTS WHILE WE WERE IN THE FIELD. IT JUMPED 10 POINTS, THIS REPEAL OF THAT LAW I THINK ONCE THAT EFFORT. JOE: I HAVE TO ASK ABOUT THE ECONOMY BECAUSE SOME OF THE NUMBERS FOR JOE BIDEN ARE BLEAK. WHEN YOU LOOK AT CURRENT CONDITIONS AND THE WAY PEOPLE FEEL ABOUT THE WAY THINGS ARE NOW, IT IS WHERE WE ARE GOING, JOE BIDEN IS TRYING TO DELIVER A MESSAGE OF OPTIMISM AMONG UNDECIDEDS, SINGLE DIGITS WHO BELIEVE THE ECONOMY WILL GET BETTER IN THE NEXT YEAR, A MASSIVE PROBLEM. >> THAT WAS THE BIGGEST FINDING BECAUSE THE NUMBERS ARE PRETTY STATIC AND PEOPLE ARE FEELING THE ECONOMY IS THE NUMBER ONE ISSUE BUT IT WAS THE DEEP PESSIMISM ABOUT THE TRAJECTORY OF THE ECONOMY THAT WAS REALLY STRIKING TO US. THERE WERE 18 THROUGH 34-YEAR-OLD WHO SAID THAT THE ECONOMY IS BAD AND NOT GETTING BETTER AND 45 TO 64-YEAR-OLDS FELT THE SAME WAY AND THOSE ARE MAJORITIES OF THOSE PEOPLE WHO FELT THAT WAY. WHEN YOU ASK THEM WHO DO YOU BLAME OR WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ECONOMY'S CONDITION? IT WAS NOT THE FEDERAL WALL STREET, IT WAS THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. WHEN YOU FEEL BAD ABOUT THE ECONOMY AND YOU DO NOT SEE IT GETTING ANY BETTER AND YOU CANNOT BUY A HOUSE OR PAY FOR AS MANY GROCERIES AS YOU NORMALLY LIKE, IT IS POSSIBLE YOU WILL VOTE THE GUY OUT. YOU FEEL IS RESPONSIBLE. PRESIDENT BIDEN'S MESSAGING IS NOT WORKING. KAILEY:
