one other big difference between patrick and marco rubio, marco rubio supports donald trump. keep in mind, marco, a while back, when he was running against donald, called him a dangerous con artist who spent his career sticking it to working people. he tweeted, "friends don't let friends vote for con artists." guess you just -- guess who just voted for trump? marco rubio. that means he doesn't have any good friends. it also means that even though he knows trump is unqualified, even though he knows he is a con artist, he still voted for him. so if you want a senator who will say anything, the anybody just to get elected, that is your guy. if you want a senator who will show up and work for you and tell you the truth, vote for patrick murphy and give hillary some help. [applause] notident obama: it is enough just to vote for hillary. -- can't stick her with make a republican congress that behaves the way they have been behaving with me. we were about to go into a great depression. by the way, because there had been a republican administration that had created a whole bunch of p

the race has been called, of course, more marco rubio. he defeats patrick murphy by a pretty wide margin. let's go to craig patrick now because craig, you went out on a limb early on to call this race for the state of florida, and back there looking at the broward numbers, really, it was all about that, wasn't if? >> >> well, we were first to call at 10:06. we weren't really going out on a limb because we're looking at math here. what we have is 10:06, roughly 99% of the vote in. you have hillary clinton trailing by more than 138,000 votes at that moment. we say okay, can hillary clinton make that up? what's the maximum number of votes she can make up. we looked at broward county. it h states, and broward county delivered. donald trump's number actually went up a little bit because you had some rural panhandle counties that were delivering in a very big way for donald trump. he was washing out hillary clinton's gains in broward. we said okay, what about miami-dade, no. 100% in. what about palm beach county? no. it wasn't there. this was a

marco rubio here won this race by eight points. polls obviously wrong and all kinds of dft ways only showed him with two or three point edge. very convincing win for marco rubio. good win for him. solidifies him as crucial member of republican senate majority. you know, laura i have to say that this is a big moment here for marco rubio in his career. be you know the senate, let's face party or same party or not as the president, they are counter weight to what president wants to do. it will be very interesting to see how marco rubio plays next several years. >> this is a real moment for him to get back in the game and focus on task at hand. already. i notice it had last night there was talk of him running for president again for the 2020 election. but i think most important thing for him right now is to be a senator. to be in the moment. as you mentioned there was r by the down vote here. the other interestings about this race in particular is republican party was consistent in its support for rubio and it's advertising dem contact

marco rubio. we'll go with evan axelbank and the marco rubio campaign in miami. >> reporter: i spoke with a senior member of marco rubio's campaign team. they say they believe that marco rubio is in very good position to continue in the senate. it was the democratic favor by a bit. they believe that that early vote will come around for marco rubio. many people here athe expecting a win. and over the last several months there are 53 polls done of the marco rubio-patrick murphy race. marco rubio has led in 48 of those polls. take a look. hoping to continue in the united states senate. he lost florida primary 8 months ago and was at odds with the nominee who he wound up supporting all be it holding his nose. many were angry over donald trump and immigration. will that base hold for marco rubio here tonight. and will he get support from the die hard voters in florida. there was a big dust up and how that plays out. if he wins. how does he win. how much does he win we spoke with part of the history. i

marco rubio certainly urging his party faithful to get out and vote. he is concerned about maintaining a republican majority in the u.s. senate. while he is urging his party favoriteful to vote a straight republican ticket he is maintaining distance between himself and nominee donald trump. as donald trump has campaigned in florida and hillary clinton has done the same, some of their campaign stops across the country have been focused on moving the balance of power the house and senate. the theory is if it is an overall majority at the top of the ticket the house and the senate could follow. >> we can't hold the majority if we lose florida. >> reporter: in hillsborough county marco rubio urged a small but faithful crowd of supporters to get out the vote. rubio. >> reporter: like many supporters she said her vote will only go to republican canidates. [ no audio ] marco rubio doesn't believe his success will be tried to the success or failure of trump to win the white house. >> i think our race stands on its own. people know i have my own contents he wen

marco rubio had some very harsh words for donald trump and the other way around and marco rubio said here at the hilton in miami last night they're going to have very strong disagreements. he will have strong disagreements with whoever the next president is. that was before he knew donald trump would be president and it's interesting because he likely skated at least into office on such a big margin on the coat tails of donald trump. very interesting position. he did speak in very inspiring fashion last night about what this country needs to be and how florida, he believes, represents the rest of the nation. >> this is an extraordinary place, florida. it is the collection of all of the things that make us the greatest nation on earth. of people who have lived here for decades, of the descendants of slaves, of children of an honor to represent this extraordinary state. >> you know, russell, i think it's just so interesting that at one point, first marco rubio wasn't running for senate. he was running for president. when he lost his race for president, he said he would run for the sena

, marco rubio still endorsed him. and even after everything that came out about donald trump being a sexual assaulter, marco rubio doubled down on his endorsement of donald trump, showing that he will continue to put his own political ambitions in front of what's best for florida. >> congressman patrick murray we appreciate you coming on "new day." thank you. >>> let's get to chris. >> breaking news to report. iraq's ministry of defense tells cnn coalition forces have entered mosul for the first time since 2014. they are trying to free that city, obviously, from isis. let's get right to cnn's senior international correspondent arwa damon on the front lines. arwa? >> hi, chris. well they managed to enter the neighborhood and this is to the east/southeast of mosul. according to two senior officials with the iraqi army's ninth division. that is a division that did enter into the city, they have at this point just cleared two blocks describing the fighting as being incredibly intense, very slow going, not just because of

marco rubio has led in 48 of those 53 polls. the average is just over 3 points and he has a chance to hang on but there is a reason that we count the >> and rising star. he and murray sparred over his senate attendance record during the campaign. >> and if he should be and we >> and he would be serving a and for anything. >> and in 2018. it is my, as i said my desire and plan to be a senator for the next six years and go down that's one of the most successful and impactful senators that florida had. >> remember back in june marco rubio went back on his pledge to be not win and maintainch mc mcconnell from kentucky said that you know we need to you hold on to our majority. he came back into the race he thought to have a better chance against murphy than the other contenders. now he is hoping to make good on that promise to mcconnell to help the party keep their senate majority. us, let's go to aaron mesmer who is in palm beach gardens where patrick murphy will be watching the results come in. >> and it is optimism is what we're h

so and that includes senate and that includes marco rubio. so it's going to be the expectations are high. how does this all play out marco rubio will be key in either things getting done or not. >> i think i'm just trying to be hopeful on wednesday morning after. everyone, tha we'll talk when you get here. a job then, right? take care. all right. and with the senator's reelection a few other key races the senate will remain in republican control. gop did lose one seat but they still have the majority. not only that house of representatives will remain in republican control. they too lost a couple of seats but not enough to change the balance of power. amendment 1 fatal. yes vote would allowed utility companies to regulate solar energy and charge customers a fee for using it. it got 51 percent of the vote. it needed 60 percent to pass. >>> amendment 2, it did pass. it allows medical paurn in state. wasn't even close really. 71 percent. it was close two years ago remember, 58 percent when it didn't pass. changes have timed in those two years in

until a couple weeks ago when marco rubio started to inch away, marco rubio holds that senate seat, key hold for republicans in the senate. it looks like there's a possibility they could hold the senate in total. in a hotly contested match in indiana, democrat ev bye lost to young in the senate seat. even democrats conceded that he did not run a very effective campaign. we are also keeping an close eye still on florida where steve harrigan is live for us in miami. what's it like down there, steve? >> trace, still too close to call in florida, of course, the biggest swing state and a key prize with 29 electoral votes. the key for democrats to win florida in the past has been to run up big margins in the big south, miami, dade and broward county. that's what hillary clinton has done, running up more than a 500,000 vote advantage, in those two counties, more than double what president obama did four years ago. so far that has not been a enough. with more than 95% of the pre sengts counted, donald trump still has a 100,000 vote lead over hillary clinton. what is puzzling some at this su

patrick murphy, you want to be marco rubio poll after poll. there have been two dozen polls have shown marco rubio either in the lead or tied. a poll for instance today shows him up about seven percentage points. that is a pretty good lead. that is one of rubio's larger leads. it's starting to look like it will be the easiest place to call early in the evening tuesday, if the polling is right. host: marc caputo, you can check out his work on politico.com. thank you for your time. calls in thew more segment of the washington journal. is in maryland, and undecided voter. caller: good morning. i am calling to make a couple of points. one, i am a member of the federal government and have been one for seven years, and two, i am still undecided and really do not know what i will do. when i go into the ballot box on tuesday, simply because i believe a trump presidency will turn the government on its head. is alreadyent crawling at a snail's pace in terms of funding and getting work done for the american people. clinton, iillary just don't really know

and that's now marco rubio's campaign platform, gridlock. if you think gridlock is a good slogan, you should vote for republicans. but if you believe america can do better, if you think we should be doing something to create jobs for working families, if you think we should be providing health care for folks who need it, if you think we should be helping single moms with child care so they can go to the job, if you think we should have equal pay for equal work or raise the minimum wage, then you need to vote for democrats up and down the ticket! you got to vote for hillary and patrick. people roll up their sleeves and move this country forward. all right. i've gone on too long. i know i've gone on a little too long. my staff is going to talk about me when i get back there. they'll say, what was going on? you were talking too long. so, let me end with this. i'm going to -- let's take it down for a second. because i want to make this point to young people especially. just give me one second. just give me one second. you know, i know a lot of y

now marco rubio is averaging a six-point lead over murphy. an article in politico argues the gap could be over come with strong democratic turnout and potentially weak gop support in the race. congressman murphy joins us now. thanks for joining us. >> good to be with you, thank you. >> how would you characterize your race now? >> well, the last two polls have showed us in a dead heat tied 46-46. we are feeling good about the momentum we have. the president and vice president will be with secretary clinton later today. a few hours ago i was with congressman john lewis in daytona beach with a get out the vote rally making sure the students show up, some of the younger folks are getting out to vote. you could feel the enthusiasm. people excited about the election. >> given how beaten up senator marco rubio was in the gop primary, his back and forth over whether he supports donald trump saying he didn't know if he could look at his own daughters but eventually going on to support donald trump. politico pointed out there was help from the party. s

but you know, it's a big win for marco rubio. it was a convincing win and when he gave his speech last night to a group of supporters, there were maybe three or 400 people there to see him. he said that whoever wins the presidency, this is before we knew who would win, he said whoever wins the presidency, we're going to have strong disagreements with that person so that was even before we knew. now we know it's donald trump and that's a bit awkward. we know that marco rubio may have won so of how well donald trump did in the state of florida. so that's kind of an interesting predicament that marco rubio is now in. we know that marco has certainly said that some of the things that donald trump has said during the campaign were unacceptable so we'll see how that dynamic plays out. how does marco rubio position himself in the white house? he promised to serve six years he said we have to pray for our nation either way and that we simply can't have more hate between americans. >> and the days and weeks to come, i hope that we as a pe

and that's now marco rubio's campaign platform, gridlock. if you think vote for gridlock is a good slogan, you should vote for republicans. but if you believe america can do better, if you think we should be doing something to create jobs for work families, if you think we should be providing health care for folks who need it, if you think we should be help single mommings with child care so they can go to the job, if you think we should have equal pay for equal work or raise the minimum wage, then you need to vote for democrats up and down the ticket. you got to vote for hillary. people role up the sleeves. my staff is going to talk about me when i get going on there. they say what was going on, you were talking too long. let me end with this. i want to make this point to young people especially. just give me one second. i know a lot of you are cynical about politics. there's a lot in this election that gives you reason to be. i'm here to tell you right now you have a chance to move history in a better direction. you have a chance to reject

marco rubio stands right by him. more than 160 republicans had the courage to stand up to donald trump's racist and bigoted campaign, but not marco rubio. senator rubio likes to use the excuse that he is supporting donald trump because he disagrees with hillary clinton on everything. well of course he does. secretary clinton shows up for work every day. you know, secretary clinton has spent decades fighting for equal rights, making sure that women have equal pay for equal work. guess what marco rubio said about equal pay for equal work. his quote was that it is a waste of time. "a waste of time," really? look, marco rubio can stay low with donald trump, but i'm with her. ] heers and applause rep. murphy: hillary clinton knows that our economy works best when it works for everybody, that we are always stronger together, and i got into public service in the first place because i was tired of the dysfunction, the finger-pointing, the name-calling, and i'm willing to work with anybody if it means solving a problem, and t
