Speaker 2: friend national pollster, and raised the question of whether or
Speaker 2: not Donald Trump would be smart to get Nikki Haley
Speaker 2: out of the campaign trail. Now at eleven o'clock, here's
Speaker 2: what I want to do. I want to hear from
Speaker 2: people who are committed one way or the other. I
Speaker 2: don't care whether you're voting for Trump. I don't care
Speaker 2: if you're voting for Harris, it doesn't matter. But if
Speaker 2: you are voting for one of them and then your
Speaker 2: gut you're really nervous, I'd like to know why. Okay,
Speaker 2: So I don't care who you're voting for. I just
Speaker 2: want to know how confident are you in who you
Speaker 2: are supporting. That's the question. We're going to get right
Speaker 2: to the call. So we're going to start off with
Speaker 2: Rochelle from Weymouth. Rochelle, you're a holdover from last hour.
Speaker 2: You can comment on Nicky Haley on the campaign trail
Speaker 2: or we're talking about this hour. Go ahead, Rochelle.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't think Trump will turn to Haley because
Speaker 3: I think that for like the one or two percentages
Speaker 3: of the vote, I don't think that he would see
Speaker 3: it as worth it to appear with Nikki Haley at
Speaker 3: this point at his at his rallies, because firstly, I
Speaker 3: think that she'd be booed off the stage and that
Speaker 3: that would be kind of an ugly scene so close
Speaker 3: to the election.
Speaker 2: Okay, fine, I assume you're a Trump.
Speaker 3: Voter, right, Yeah, I wouldn't do that, but there's people
Speaker 3: that would I know that also he would he would
Speaker 3: have to give her some kind of a cabinet position.
Speaker 3: And I don't think that he trusted her.
Speaker 2: I don't think he would have to.
Speaker 3: I think that I think he'd have to give her something.
Speaker 2: And I don't think she says she's not holding it
Speaker 2: out as a quid pro quote. So let me ask you, you
Speaker 2: are going to vote for Trump. Are you pretty confident
Speaker 2: he's going to win?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I think. Look, it looks close right now. I think
Speaker 3: it's going to break eyes away and it's not even
Speaker 3: going to be close. But my gut, I believe it
Speaker 3: is Trump. I see the polls trending in his way.
Speaker 3: And also I think that that the American people. But
Speaker 3: you know, people are thinking enough is enough. People are
Speaker 3: tired of the gas, electricity, fuel housing.
Speaker 2: You don't need to.
Speaker 4: Make the campaign speech.
Speaker 3: So I understand, I understand.
Speaker 2: And I'm not looking for campaign speeches. I'm just looking for,
Speaker 2: as I said, what your thoughts are? You know, last
Speaker 2: hour on Nikki Haley, you gave them that to me.
Speaker 2: But we're not looking for campaign speeches. I just want
Speaker 2: to know who you're supporting, and clearly Trump is a
Speaker 2: Trump supporter, and you're confident. So that's good.
Speaker 3: Yeah, confident. I'm not saying there's no anxiety. I mean,
Speaker 3: it's an election. Everything's on the line.
Speaker 2: But so you've got a little anxiety. You got a
Speaker 2: little anxiety, not a lot.
Speaker 3: Not a lot. But I'm praying about it. And you know,
Speaker 3: you read the Bible or you.
Speaker 2: Turn to Okay, let's I'm not going to buy. I'm
Speaker 2: not going to the Bibles tonight. Rachelle. I've got to
Speaker 2: go to the next calle. Thank you so much, appreciate it. Sandra,
Speaker 2: you held on as well. I want to accommodate you.
Speaker 2: Go ahead, Sandra. Who you're voting for and how confident
Speaker 2: are you?
Speaker 5: Instead of Nikki Hayley, I think he should turn to
Speaker 5: Danica Patrick.
Speaker 6: I heard the.
Speaker 5: Most amazing little speech that she gave out in Las Vegas.
Speaker 5: I didn't realize this, but Danica Patrick has never voted.
Speaker 2: Yeah I hear I heard her say that. Yeah yeah,
Speaker 2: I mean she's building her career as a race car driver, right, yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, she was. She had never bothered to register and
Speaker 5: had never voted in any elections. And I was sort
Speaker 5: of astonished to hear that. But then She gave a
Speaker 5: very what I would describe as an authentic speech out
Speaker 5: in Las Vegas, and one of her best lines is,
Speaker 5: book you don't have to go to dinner with the guy.
Speaker 7: To you know.
Speaker 5: He's gathered some good people around him and he's going
Speaker 5: to make America great again.
Speaker 2: So you're going to vote from How confident are you? Sandraw?
Speaker 2: My question this hour is are you confident or do
Speaker 2: you have some butterflies?
Speaker 8: Well?
Speaker 5: I have butterflies that Kamalam, you know, if she does win,
Speaker 5: will not be the real person running the show. I mean,
Speaker 5: I have the feeling that they are. All of these handles.
Speaker 2: My question on a scale of zero to ten, you're
Speaker 2: going to vote for him, and I know that he's
Speaker 2: not going to carry Massachusetts. But in a scale of
Speaker 2: zero to ten, how much confidence do you have that
Speaker 2: he will win?
Speaker 5: I just don't know, Dan, I mean, I know that
Speaker 5: it depends on whether you know. I do believe there
Speaker 5: could be some cheating, and I believe that the last
Speaker 5: time in twenty twenty. So I'm one of those people
Speaker 5: who have actually seen it happen in Massachusetts, so I
Speaker 5: know it does happen, and I am very concerned about that.
Speaker 5: I feel that he really.
Speaker 9: Has to.
Speaker 5: Focus in these last days, and I just hope that
Speaker 5: people like dan Ka Patrick.
Speaker 2: Ti all right, but cut you down. You're a Janika
Speaker 2: Patrick fan. Okay, Thanks, Sandra, thank you so much. One
Speaker 2: by you too, have a great one. Okay, good night.
Speaker 2: So not a Nikki Haley fan, but a Danica Patrick fan. Okay.
Speaker 2: So I think you guys are getting the gist of
Speaker 2: what I'm trying to do here. I want to hear
Speaker 2: from whether you're a Harris supporter or a Trump supporter.
Speaker 2: I don't know how anybody can be confident, but I
Speaker 2: suspect that some of you are. And this is just
Speaker 2: a different way to get in a different We're not
Speaker 2: doing a poll here. We did our last poll last
Speaker 2: Friday night, and of course the only poll that counts
Speaker 2: is the one that they take on Tuesday, So that's
Speaker 2: the issue. I think it's a good question. I'd love
Speaker 2: to hear from you. Feel free to join the conversation,
Speaker 2: especially if you're a new caller. I would love to
Speaker 2: hear from you, and again this week. If you've called earlier,
Speaker 2: you have a hall passed six, use it six one seven.
Speaker 2: The only line open right now is six one seven
Speaker 2: nine back on Nightside right after this.
Speaker 1: It's night Side Boston's news radio.
Speaker 2: We got Neil and water down. Neil, You're next on
Speaker 2: nights Side. Love to know who you're voting for and
Speaker 2: how confident are you that your candidate will win?
Speaker 7: Well? I voted early. I voted for Kamala Harris. Okay,
Speaker 7: I'm not really that much of a political person, but
Speaker 7: I think it's important that everyone votes.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 7: But if I may, I hope this is your Maine.
Speaker 2: It is to be favored before we get your Maine here.
Speaker 2: How confident are you that your candidate's going to win?
Speaker 7: Well, I don't know, and I wouldn't really call her
Speaker 7: my candidate, but I think, okay, that's fair enough.
Speaker 2: So you're you're not confident, but that's fine. Go ahead.
Speaker 2: What what did you you wanted to Oftentimes you'd like
Speaker 2: to say something a little different than right ahead.
Speaker 7: Well, I voted against Donald Trump because I fear of
Speaker 7: losing the country if I'm wrong. I know you've said
Speaker 7: that the United States is too strong for that.
Speaker 2: Oh, absolutely in my opinion, in my look.
Speaker 7: But it's a ree, But I still have the fear.
Speaker 7: I mean, maybe I'm I.
Speaker 2: Have irrational fears too. I mean, look, everybody has a
Speaker 2: rational fear. Some people they walk into a dark room
Speaker 2: and they hear a board creek day of fear.
Speaker 7: Okay, but January sixth did happen, and there's a there's
Speaker 7: a conservative senator from uh, Pennsylvania. I forget his name.
Speaker 7: He's large conservatively. So when that happened, Donald Trump became unacceptable.
Speaker 7: There are people who had never voted for but there is.
Speaker 2: No conservative senator. By the way, the two senators from Pentsylvania.
Speaker 7: He's not senator anymore, and I regret I can't remember
Speaker 7: his name, saved them. He was a article about Liz
Speaker 7: Cheney and why she won't vote for Donald Trump even
Speaker 7: though she's an arch conservative, and just at that point
Speaker 7: he for me. He became honest.
Speaker 2: It got a little personal with Liz Change, but it
Speaker 2: got it got pretty personal with Liz Change. But you
Speaker 2: said you wanted to talk about something that wasn't Germaine.
Speaker 2: You go right ahead.
Speaker 7: No, I thought that was Germaine, because I thought because
Speaker 7: you wanted people, you wanted people to say how much
Speaker 7: how confident you were, And.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you answered that question. No, you answered that question
Speaker 2: very clearly. You said that you're voting for Harris, but
Speaker 2: you really don't know.
Speaker 7: And uh no, that's I mean, Harry Truman wasn't supposed
Speaker 7: to be a great president, but when he got the chance,
Speaker 7: he became a good one. Right, And is that accurate?
Speaker 2: Well, I think that he's he's listed amongst the better presidents. Yes,
Speaker 2: and I and I think that Harry Truman, you know,
Speaker 2: had been I think Roosevelt's third vice president, and he
Speaker 2: was sort of considered a habit dasher from from Missouri.
Speaker 2: And uh and with the story, I remember what Harry
Speaker 2: Truman was when he and his wife, uh and his
Speaker 2: wife Beth, they left the White House, they drove home
Speaker 2: to Missouri. I mean, it's it's it boggles the mind
Speaker 2: to think that, you know, they basically, I guess we're
Speaker 2: staying at motels along the way. I don't even think
Speaker 2: he had secret service when he left the White House.
Speaker 7: But I hope all people good well do well. And
Speaker 7: don't they surprised me? And that's that's great.
Speaker 2: And sure you give everybody a chance. Absolutely, I couldn't
Speaker 2: agree with you more. Neil, thank you much, as always,
Speaker 2: always good to hear your voice. Interesting, You're an interesting caller,
Speaker 2: my friend, and I mean, thank you, have a great night.
Speaker 2: We're gonna keep on rolling. He're gonna go next to Mark,
Speaker 2: who is from Cambridge Central Square. Actually, Mark, welcome to Nightside.
Speaker 6: How are you my call again?
Speaker 2: You're welcome. You go right ahead. What's who are you going
Speaker 2: to vote for?
Speaker 6: I voted Arlie Honey voting, and I voted for Johnald
Speaker 6: Johnald Trump. Stud Okay, I'm profident.
Speaker 4: I gotta I say on the scale, I'm gonna go
Speaker 4: with nine.
Speaker 2: Really, that's goo.
Speaker 6: You have to keep a mall shut some of the
Speaker 6: call me temate. That's all.
Speaker 4: Yeah, all right, I'm gonna keep it short and simple tonight, Jed.
Speaker 2: Thank you, Thanks Mark, and I really do appreciate it.
Speaker 2: And you have hit exactly what I was looking for.
Speaker 2: I don't care what the result is. I don't care
Speaker 2: if you if someone's wating for Harris or Trump. I
Speaker 2: just am trying to figure out what is the confidence
Speaker 2: factor here, because clearly, when you say you're a nine,
Speaker 2: that's pretty damn confident.
Speaker 4: Thanks Mark, Thank you, have a good night.
Speaker 2: You too, My friend talked to you soon. Okay, that's
Speaker 2: a great call. Let's keep rolling here. We've had a
Speaker 2: bunch of good calls. Bill is in Pennsylvania, Bill, welcome back?
Speaker 10: How are you good to be back? I was over
Speaker 10: in Italy, Dan, I took your advice and I went
Speaker 10: to see Italy.
Speaker 2: Did you really? Where'd you go?
Speaker 6: I went?
Speaker 10: I flew into Milan and uh stayed there for a
Speaker 10: few days. And I got on the train and went
Speaker 10: up up to a ski town I used to ski
Speaker 10: and when I was young, town called bore Me. It's
Speaker 10: in the Vatalina Valley. Yeah, it was a good time
Speaker 10: because there was nobody around and I can't get up
Speaker 10: real high. I got up to about eight thousand feet
Speaker 10: hike and I was just hiking around and you know
Speaker 10: the bite does they call them bike?
Speaker 6: Does?
Speaker 10: The cabins up there? They were still man so you
Speaker 10: could duck in there and get some food. And it
Speaker 10: was wonderful. It was a kind of a solitude thing
Speaker 10: and it was good for my brain.
Speaker 2: Well, I wish that you would come on the trip
Speaker 2: with us. We went to Rome in the Mouthea Coast
Speaker 2: in early August, and it was a good trip. And
Speaker 2: we'll do another one maybe next year, and maybe you'll
Speaker 2: join us on that one.
Speaker 10: Okay, I'd love to I'd love to meet you in
Speaker 10: person sometime. Dan, Hey, I can only tell you what's
Speaker 10: going on here in Pennsylvania. Yeah, excuse me. First of all,
Speaker 10: did you hear the comments by our sender, John Siderman
Speaker 10: about three days ago?
Speaker 2: Yeah, he said that I'm going to parafe here. By
Speaker 2: the way, the senator that I believe that Neil was
Speaker 2: referring to is Pat Toomey, former Republican senator from Pennsylvania
Speaker 2: a few years ago. I think that's who he was
Speaker 2: referred to. Fetterman said that that Trump really has a
Speaker 2: significant amount of He said something like that, if you
Speaker 2: have a better, more accurate quote, I'd love to hear it.
Speaker 10: Well, basically, John said that that he's seen he's never
Speaker 10: seen enthusiasm like this, and it exceeds what what the
Speaker 10: enthusiasm when in twenty sixteen was Okay, that's the first thing.
Speaker 10: The other thing is it just came out yesterday in
Speaker 10: the local in the local press, and I believe it
Speaker 10: was Philadelphia, MUCKs County and Chester County down there. Okay, Yeah,
Speaker 10: both underperforming and the fact that in the Republican early
Speaker 10: vote in those two counties, twenty one percent of the
Speaker 10: early vote in Bucks County and Chester County, in and
Speaker 10: around Philadelphia, the city of your brother in love, Okay,
Speaker 10: twenty one percent were brand new voters.
Speaker 2: I don't know how do you read that?
Speaker 10: I don't know how they do it, but anyways, no, no,
Speaker 10: how do.
Speaker 2: You read Assuming that figure is accurate, I'll accept that
Speaker 2: figure of like first time voters. What does that tell you?
Speaker 10: It tells me that people are completely disgusted with Biden
Speaker 10: Harris and they're gonna get off their butts and vote.
Speaker 10: And the last, the last thing, the last angle that
Speaker 10: nobody's talking about. There are thousands and thousands of young
Speaker 10: girls in Pennsylvania to participate in sports. Alls we've heard
Speaker 10: is the argument on the other side about the abortion
Speaker 10: people are taking for granted, Dan, that a mother okay,
Speaker 10: with a daughter, okay, does not care who who the
Speaker 10: daughter is playing against, whether it be a you know,
Speaker 10: and the other thing about you know, the way they
Speaker 10: let them let them come into their to their showers
Speaker 10: and everything. Then that that angle is not being played
Speaker 10: at all, but it's being played the suburban. The suburban mothers, okay,
Speaker 10: are really tied up in a lot of their daughter's sports.
Speaker 11: Soccer.
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh, no, Yeah, I believe me. I coached sports
Speaker 2: uh in uh in a suburb of Boston for many years,
Speaker 2: so I know how firm how strongly people feel about that.
Speaker 2: We'll have to see. I mean, if if Trump were
Speaker 2: to carry Pennsylvania, Uh, the belief is that that wins
Speaker 2: the presidency for him, because he if he carries Pennsylvania,
Speaker 2: he doesn't.
Speaker 10: I think he's gonna Wisconsin. I've always as soon as
Speaker 10: I got but back formidably and uh, and I'm confident
Speaker 10: I think that uh, you know, the press has been
Speaker 10: so unfair okay about uh, the whole thing. But I
Speaker 10: heard you say this, I think a while back in
Speaker 10: the end, Okay, if Kamala loses, you're going to see
Speaker 10: I mean if the finger pointing inside the Democrat part,
Speaker 10: it's already started, it's already started.
Speaker 11: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean I think that the question will be
Speaker 2: why did we get rid of Biden? Because obviously Biden,
Speaker 2: although he's four years older, does have the track record
Speaker 2: of having won the twenty twenty election. And I think
Speaker 2: that I think that that that they may there may
Speaker 2: be again assume seeing how there was if it works
Speaker 2: out for the Democrats and Harris wins everyone's going to say, well,
Speaker 2: that was brilliant. We picked a candidate who could beat him.
Speaker 2: Uh if if she loses or if Trump wins. To
Speaker 2: put another way, I think there's going to be a
Speaker 2: lot of recriminations within the Democratic.
Speaker 10: Party in my opinion, and I'm with you. I'm with
Speaker 10: you all one hundred percent. Dance if Kamala wins. I'm
Speaker 10: a Trump supporter. But if Kamala wins, the country is
Speaker 10: not going to completely fall apart. But what's going to
Speaker 10: happen is we're going to have another extension of the
Speaker 10: Biden administration for the next four years.
Speaker 12: And then I.
Speaker 10: Would say that that's when the tide is really going
Speaker 10: to change against the Democrats.
Speaker 2: We'll see, We'll see. So, so you're Trump and you're.
Speaker 10: Confident, right, Yes, I'm very very confident.
Speaker 2: In scale of zero to ten, my friend Mark and
Speaker 2: Cambridge said he's a nine. Were you not zero to ten?
Speaker 6: Right?
Speaker 10: Most probably an eight. I mean, anything can happen, you know, anything.
Speaker 2: Under no absolutely, And look, there could be a mistake
Speaker 2: made this weekend. Who knows. I mean, there could be
Speaker 2: a mistake made either way. I mean, we've seen in
Speaker 2: the last few weeks the comedian New York abject stupidity
Speaker 2: that the Trump campaign didn't vet that guy. And then
Speaker 2: Joe Biden turns around and makes an equally ignorant comment.
Speaker 2: And his comment is from the President of the United
Speaker 2: States talking about Trump supporters as being garbage and so.
Speaker 10: And it's going to be a long night. It's going
Speaker 10: to be a real long night, Dan, because the Supreme
Speaker 10: Court today ruled in favor of the Democrats. As far
Speaker 10: as you know, you gotta have rules, okay, And one
Speaker 10: of the rules is when you put that ballot, the
Speaker 10: mail in ballid inside the envelope that goes you know,
Speaker 10: on the inner intervice, it has to be sealed. They're saying, now,
Speaker 10: oh no, it can come in unsealed and it'll still count.
Speaker 10: And it can come in with a wrong date on it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that that was. That was a what's what's called
Speaker 2: the procureum decision, meaning there was no written decision. It
Speaker 2: was basically it upheld what the Supreme Court in Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2: I believe that Gorsich wrote some sort of a statement
Speaker 2: on It wasn't even what you consider to be a dissent,
Speaker 2: but it wasn't like it was a six to three
Speaker 2: or five to four decisions, So court disposed of that night.
Speaker 10: It's going to be a long night, cow bill.
Speaker 2: Thank you much, chow okay, yeah, now, using a little
Speaker 2: bit of your Italian Italian lingo. That's good, except a
Speaker 2: great night. Here comes the news at the bottom of
Speaker 2: the hour. We got a half an hour left. Karen, Jeff, Maria, Jimmy.
Speaker 2: You're all set. We got two lines at six, one, seven, two, five, four,
Speaker 2: ten thirty. Who are you voting for on Tuesday or
Speaker 2: who have you voted for? And how confident are you
Speaker 2: that you got to win, that you're that you're riding
Speaker 2: a winning horse. That's my question.
Speaker 1: Coming back on Nightside, Night Dan night Side with Dan
Speaker 1: Ray on WBS, Boston's news radio. It's night Side with
Speaker 1: Dan Ray on Boston's news radio.
Speaker 2: All right, let's keep rolling here. I gotta go to
Speaker 2: Karen out at Leminster. Karen, you are next on Nightside.
Speaker 2: Get my my mouse working here and to be able
Speaker 2: to pull up Karen phone me, please, would you? Noah?
Speaker 2: Here we go, I got it. Go ahead, Karen next
Speaker 2: on Nightside.
Speaker 13: Yes, I just wanted to say that I am fairly
Speaker 13: confident about eighty percent that Trump is Donald Trump is
Speaker 13: gonna win, and I all I base my opinion on
Speaker 13: two things. I think that a lot of people are tied.
Speaker 13: You know, it's because of the economy not being good
Speaker 13: and because the people, especially seniors and people you know
Speaker 13: with anicass a lot of people just having trouble making
Speaker 13: ends meet each month, and a lot of things going
Speaker 13: to immigrants. Now some of them rightly deserves some of
Speaker 13: the things that get because they've just come into the country,
Speaker 13: but it seems as if they're getting more than we
Speaker 13: are often. But another reason I think he's going to
Speaker 13: win is the historical reason. I think this election is
Speaker 13: going to be a lot like the election and I
Speaker 13: don't remember all of it of nineteen eighty in that
Speaker 13: a lot of you know, Reagan one, and for the
Speaker 13: same reason because there was some problems with the economy.
Speaker 13: And I think some Cubans are coming in around that time.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you had the Marrior, you had the marry. There
Speaker 2: is the Mariial boat lift which Castro had imposed us,
Speaker 2: which was considered to be a weakness. Of course, Jimmy
Speaker 2: Carter had the the the Iranian hostage crisis with Yeah,
Speaker 2: that was well, and then he had he had done
Speaker 2: that speech where he talked about America was in an
Speaker 2: economic malaise and he almost was blaming the American people
Speaker 2: as opposed to his own administration. And yeah, there are
Speaker 2: some similarities there. And you had a lot of inflation
Speaker 2: and unemployment. And by the way, today you had a
Speaker 2: jobs report. They expected one hundred and twelve thousand new
Speaker 2: jobs and the number was only twelve thousand. That was
Speaker 2: really a tough number for the Fime administration.
Speaker 13: Yeah, but the only other thing I want to say
Speaker 13: was that there were a lot of people that were
Speaker 13: in the Senate and Congress that were both that were
Speaker 13: voted out. Yeah, there was, Yeah, similar thing happened this time.
Speaker 2: Oh. I think that that the Republicans will pick up
Speaker 2: a seat with Governor Jim Justice down in the Joe
Speaker 2: Mansion seat in West Virginia. He's the last of a
Speaker 2: breed of Democrats. Mansion sort of a moderate Democrat has
Speaker 2: been washed away. John chet Tester, who's a very reliable
Speaker 2: Democratic vote but sort of a more moderate guy from Montana.
Speaker 2: I think he's in trouble. I think Sherid Brown might
Speaker 2: be in trouble in Ohio with a guy named Bernie Marino,
Speaker 2: who by the way is originally from Massachusetts. Uh, he worked,
Speaker 2: he worked in the the autible. He was a car
Speaker 2: sales guy up here. And apparently he has opened up
Speaker 2: a bunch of had enough money to open up a
Speaker 2: bunch of car dealerships in Ohio designed to stand that.
Speaker 2: So we may have a massive we have an Oklahoma
Speaker 2: transplant here as a senator from Massachusetts. We might have
Speaker 2: a Massachusetts transplant as a senitor down in Ohio. We'll
Speaker 2: have to see how that. There's no guarantee there. Also,
Speaker 2: the Republicans could pick up a Senate seat in Minnesota,
Speaker 2: or rather in Michigan and possibly even Wisconsin. But again
Speaker 2: that's those are those are not favored. But I think
Speaker 2: the Republicans will have they will take control of the Senate. Well,
Speaker 2: they can hold the houses another question as well. So
Speaker 2: there's a lot going on. There's a lot of moving parts.
Speaker 2: We're going to have great coverage here on WBZ on
Speaker 2: Tuesday night.
Speaker 13: Well, thank you very much, and.
Speaker 2: Karen, thank you. Always think hear your voice, appreciate the call,
Speaker 2: Have a great night, good night. All right, let's keep
Speaker 2: rolling here. We're going to go next to let me see.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Maria in Plymouth Home, Maria, Welcome back to
Speaker 2: Night's side. How are you, hi, Maria?
Speaker 14: Thank you?
Speaker 2: So who are you voting for? And how confident are you?
Speaker 9: I have a strategy I was one that may my
Speaker 9: help people who haven't decided as ifs this is anybody
Speaker 9: who's in there at state.
Speaker 10: I think of it like this.
Speaker 9: You vote Republican, then we have Democrats in there now,
Speaker 9: so go Republican, go back and forth. It's kind of
Speaker 9: like a ballast to keep the country up right, I
Speaker 9: think it instead of going too far to one side,
Speaker 9: you cannot balance it out in Besides that, uh, Trump,
Speaker 9: after this year, he won't be run again. You can
Speaker 9: be sure of that. If he gets elected, he'll have
Speaker 9: If he gets elected, he'll do his four years. He's done.
Speaker 9: On the other hand, if Harris gets elected, there's a
Speaker 9: good chance she could be in there for eight years.
Speaker 9: I think it's good that in four years that she'd
Speaker 9: be able to run in Ah, you know, start from
Speaker 9: the start from the beginning like everybody else, instead of
Speaker 9: halfway through the race, and get her chance then in
Speaker 9: four years and see that people still really water.
Speaker 2: Okay, So if he gets what is your what's your percentage?
Speaker 9: Of support for I think I'm going to go seven.
Speaker 2: Okay, so not quite.
Speaker 9: Yeah. I think the Democrats get in. They're going to
Speaker 9: change the numbers on the Supreme Court. They're also going
Speaker 9: to change the way the voting has done. Popular to
Speaker 9: a popular vote, and I don't know that the that
Speaker 9: it's going to work out for the country.
Speaker 2: Well, we will see, We will see, Maria. Thank you
Speaker 2: very much. Interesting arguments, interesting reasons, and you answered my question.
Speaker 2: So you have a confidence level of about seventy percent.
Speaker 2: Sounds all right. Thanks, stay with us on Tuesday night.
Speaker 2: We'll give you great coverage, I promise you.
Speaker 9: In any case, in any case, we're going to have
Speaker 9: somebody new. That's the way it is.
Speaker 2: I do think a lot of people are ready for
Speaker 2: someone new. I don't think zipped out about that. Thank you, Marie.
Speaker 9: I think a lot of people are ready for it
Speaker 9: to be done.
Speaker 2: Doctor lad. I have a great night, can act. All right,
Speaker 2: let's keep rolling here. Where are we going to go next? Hey,
Speaker 2: let's go to Jeff up in Portland, Maine. We got
Speaker 2: a bunch of states tonight. Pennsylvania, I think we had, uh, well, California, Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2: I think we might we had one. Yeah, we got
Speaker 2: an Ohio coming up. Jeff in Portland, Maine. Hi, Jeff,
Speaker 2: how are you hey?
Speaker 6: It's been Uh this is the latest I've ever talked
Speaker 6: to you in in an election cycle for the first
Speaker 6: time and interesting.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm glad you finally got around to it.
Speaker 6: Well, I just you know, you know it was you
Speaker 6: and I have never been combative, and you know you've stated,
Speaker 6: I've stated that we're pretty close to polar opposites, but
Speaker 6: side with me.
Speaker 2: I like I I have more friends who disagree with
Speaker 2: me politically privately. But yeah, you go right ahead.
Speaker 6: So I mean I missed you in uh Manchester in
Speaker 6: uh twenty I was over with Bill wondering what happened
Speaker 6: to us.
Speaker 2: But well in twenty twenty, wait a second, twenty twenty
Speaker 2: we had a presence up in Manchester. We did not
Speaker 2: have a physical presence in Manchester.
Speaker 6: This time, right right, And I've been too busy to
Speaker 6: even touch things politically.
Speaker 2: So talk to me then about who are you going
Speaker 2: to vote for? And how confident are you that you
Speaker 2: vote is for a winner?
Speaker 6: Right question for you? Do you know what the Junior
Speaker 6: States of America is?
Speaker 2: The junior state.
Speaker 6: Junior States of America. It is one of the largest
Speaker 6: political organizations in the country, believe it or not.
Speaker 2: And it's not familiar with it, but tell us about it.
Speaker 6: Like it's basically the elected school, president's vice presidents, treasurers.
Speaker 2: The kids that are okay, fine, okay, yeah, okay, yep,
Speaker 2: this high school or.
Speaker 6: College, no high school. And they actually have conventions through
Speaker 6: the year, through the midterm years, and the president presidential election. Yes,
Speaker 6: And in twenty and sixteen they voted, you know, just
Speaker 6: a straw vote, and it came down fifty one forty
Speaker 6: nine Hillary. In twenty and twenty it came down sixty five,
Speaker 6: thirty five Joe Biden. This year seventy five, twenty five
Speaker 6: Kamala Harris. They were the ones that bought six million
Speaker 6: tickets to the Trump rally where six thousand people showed up.
Speaker 2: Okay, so we have a lot of interesting information. I
Speaker 2: got a lot of people who want to participate. I'm
Speaker 2: assuming you voted for Harris. Why don't you tell me
Speaker 2: how confident you are that she will win.
Speaker 6: Well, I'm voting for Harris on Tuesday. I'm actually going
Speaker 6: to show up on voting day.
Speaker 2: Good for you, Good for you. Okay, and how common
Speaker 2: you are you when to scale us, say zero to ten.
Speaker 6: I'd say with gen Z and the female vote, I
Speaker 6: would put it at eighty percent.
Speaker 2: Eighty percent. Okay, that's good. That's a pretty healthy confidence level. Great.
Speaker 2: I just got to keep rolling here, because as fascinating
Speaker 2: as the statistics of high school kids voting whatever, I
Speaker 2: guarantee you will not be seventy five twenty five. I
Speaker 2: think they were pretty close on Hillary. That group of
Speaker 2: students were pretty close on Hillary and Trump in twenty sixteen.
Speaker 2: Not so close on Biden. They overstated for Biden. I
Speaker 2: think they're way over for Harris. But that's interesting. I
Speaker 2: got to run. Thank you much, Jeff. We'll talk soon. Okay,
Speaker 2: call it that YouTube. Bye bye. I'm gonna take a break.
Speaker 2: We got everybody coming up. We got Jimmy, we got Laurie,
Speaker 2: we got Rick, we got Paul. Would love to have
Speaker 2: you one one line at six one seven.
Speaker 1: It's Night Side with Dan Rayy Hey, Dan, WBZ Boston's
Speaker 1: news Radio. Now back to Dan Ray live from the
Speaker 1: window World night Side Studios. I'm WBZ News Radio.
Speaker 2: We got full lines. Going to ask everybody since all
Speaker 2: of you called late, to be as quick as you can't.
Speaker 2: Starting off with Jimmy and Holberg. Jimmy, who are you
Speaker 2: going to vote for? And how confident are you that
Speaker 2: you have a winner?
Speaker 6: Hi?
Speaker 12: Dan, I'm eight year old Mille. This is my first
Speaker 12: time voting in like twenty years maybe longw Wow. So
Speaker 12: I'm actually voting for Trump? Okay, I'm I'm I'm not sure.
Speaker 12: If i'm I'm about eighty percent, I'm not sure. Like
Speaker 12: all the stuff that's going on, like we don't know
Speaker 12: if he's gonna win. Even if it's like I don't know,
Speaker 12: i'd say, yeah, everyone keeps saying that he can't win Massachusetts. Yeah,
Speaker 12: we have like Republican governors all the time. How do
Speaker 12: they win? I don't mean he found dumb. I don't
Speaker 12: know a lot about No.
Speaker 2: No, no, well, no, they're more they're different. They're different
Speaker 2: than than Trump's stylistically, what's.
Speaker 4: That are the Democratic Democratic Republicans?
Speaker 2: No, I know, I think that there's a difference between
Speaker 2: Charlie Baker, Paul Salucci, Bill Weld. They're more fiscal conservatives.
Speaker 2: They're more more liberal on social issues, but they're fiscal conservatives.
Speaker 2: And you know, I think that you that it's a different.
Speaker 2: It's a different breed of Republican up here. The tradition
Speaker 2: of the Republican Party. We have at Brook as a
Speaker 2: US senator for many years, a couple of terms, Leverett, Salton,
Speaker 2: starle you go back, and they're sort of the the
Speaker 2: establishment of Republicans, country club Republicans and Donald Trumps anything
Speaker 2: but a country club Republican, although he owns a few
Speaker 2: country clubs. So that's the example there. Your vote for
Speaker 2: John Deeton or Elizabeth Warren.
Speaker 6: I once for John Deaton.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would expect so I think that you know,
Speaker 2: deeton is is sort of a more moderate Republican. He
Speaker 2: he claims he's a baker.
Speaker 6: I'm a big fan of Elizabeth Warren.
Speaker 12: I don't know much about Join the club.
Speaker 2: Join joined the club, Jimmy, if you listen to my show,
Speaker 2: you know how I feel about about Elizabeth Warren. Gotta run,
Speaker 2: jim do me a favorite, come on back more off
Speaker 2: and will you will have some great conversations. I promise,
Speaker 2: Thank you, all right, I got you down. Let me
Speaker 2: go to Paul and Ohio. Paul next on night Side,
Speaker 2: Who's going to win the Senate race in Ohio?
Speaker 4: Paul, Well, I'm hoping for Bernie Marino, But just like
Speaker 4: with the mainstream media is lying and there's just enough
Speaker 4: people that might be listening to him. That's what I'm
Speaker 4: afraid of. But formerly from Lynn, I talked to you
Speaker 4: a couple of times before. Still love it out here,
Speaker 4: and I vote actually counts. I'm pretty sure Trump's gonna win.
Speaker 4: But again, there's no way any of these polls are
Speaker 4: telling the truth.
Speaker 2: Okay, so how much so you're gonna vote for Trump? Yep?
Speaker 2: So what what's your what's your confidence level winning?
Speaker 4: I say about seventy fair enough? Okay, it's it's gonna
Speaker 4: be tighter than I than I think.
Speaker 6: I hope.
Speaker 2: Well, we're gonna see. We will see Tuesday night, let's
Speaker 2: see what happens. By the way, Bernie Marina was also
Speaker 2: originally a Massachusetts guy, lived up.
Speaker 4: In dan I heard that. Yeah, yeah, how about to
Speaker 4: have some rumors about him being a shady card deal
Speaker 4: of it? Sharon Brown out here?
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, look, you know what are they are? They
Speaker 2: all card dealers. I think a lot of card dealers
Speaker 2: are great people, but certainly there were superior. There was
Speaker 2: that stereotype of the car dealer, you know, all of
Speaker 2: that sort of thing.
Speaker 4: But yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2: But hey, Paul, look I got three more I gotta
Speaker 2: get you. I'll give you more time next time. Thank
Speaker 2: you for calling. Become more of a regular caller. I
Speaker 2: always loved here for folks in Ohio.
Speaker 4: Thanks all right, thank you, all right, you.
Speaker 2: Too, Thank you, Rick, Bill Ricord Rick next a nice.
Speaker 2: I go ahead, We got to be quick, Rick.
Speaker 8: Yeah, no, I'll give you some point as the new
Speaker 8: chime in afterwards are the first of all. A lot
Speaker 8: of people calling in talking with speeches like Trump's gonna
Speaker 8: but you know, win by a big landslide. I don't
Speaker 8: think that's the case. I'm nervous. I'm going to vote
Speaker 8: for him, but it could be a fifty. I'm gonna
Speaker 8: say fifty to fifty, and I will say the arrogance.
Speaker 7: We didn't.
Speaker 8: We voted for him instead of Hillary because Hillary was
Speaker 8: arrogant and a few years back, you know, eight years ago.
Speaker 2: Yeah no, let me tell you this, nobody could beat
Speaker 2: Hillary on the arrogance level.
Speaker 8: Yeah exactly. And no red wave two years ago. Remember
Speaker 8: Hannity was saying red wave, No, no red wave. Two
Speaker 8: years ago.
Speaker 2: They were a ripple. It was a ripple.
Speaker 8: Exactly exactly, and so just gather the gather your your
Speaker 8: your forces together, get a ruby on Niki. Of course
Speaker 8: he should do that, and he won't because he's He's Eric.
Speaker 8: That's about all I can tell you. And he's got
Speaker 8: O RFK now backing him. But a lot of people
Speaker 8: don't like him. I like RFK. He's one of the royalty.
Speaker 8: He's political royalty. I hope people say, hey, you know,
Speaker 8: but well, but got it you weaken you.
Speaker 2: Too, Rick, Thank you so much for calling. We'll talk soon, Okay,
Speaker 2: dot you next week. Laurie in Idaho, Laurie, welcome back.

Speaker 13: Thank you?
Speaker 14: I got dumped before I could get back in. Well, see,
Speaker 14: I'm still Trump, and I am more nervous than I've
Speaker 14: ever been. I don't know if I can put a
Speaker 14: percentage on it. I hoped it was it paleog if
Speaker 14: you had on tonight.
Speaker 2: Uh no, no, No, it was John Zogby Doby.
Speaker 14: Okay, Well, I know he said he he took care
Speaker 14: of the percentage of the Republicans that didn't talk to polsters.
Speaker 14: But I'm hoping that percentage is higher than he judged.
Speaker 14: So I'm nervous. I'm I'm a sixty percent and hope
Speaker 14: hopefully a little bit better than that.
Speaker 2: But not who's going to Who's going to win the
Speaker 2: Montana Senate race? Next door to you.
Speaker 14: Guys, who's running again?

Speaker 2: we got thirty seconds for you. What do you got?

Speaker 11: View yesterday when Mark Cuban said conservative women are stupid
Speaker 11: and controlled by men, well, his boss is a conservative,
Speaker 11: Miriam Adelson, and I hope she he knows them. Don't
Speaker 11: let the door hit you with good Lord, split you.
Speaker 1: Well said fin on that one.
Speaker 11: We just sulted every woman that doesn't.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's crazy, it's crazy, the insults that are
Speaker 2: going around, and again, the intolerance, the arrogance of Mark
Speaker 2: Cuban knows no bounds.
Speaker 11: I mean, yeah, yeah, he's more arrogant than here. We
Speaker 11: Acoma will put together.
Speaker 2: I think you're right on that one. And I don't
