00:00With more than 55 million ballots already cast nationwide, early voting has been a key feature of the mid-term
00:08elections.
00:09Voters are also winning on the Trump administration's record, including the economy, its leadership, style and foreign policy.
00:18Our correspondent Carlos Monteros brings us more details from Florida.
00:25Florida is a red state. Florida has two senators. They are Republican, the governor, DeSantis, who is also a Republican.
00:35But that could change after tomorrow. There is a blue wave that's coming this way, that a beautiful city of
00:43Miami and the whole state of Florida.
00:48The senator who replaced Marco Rubio, Ashley Moody, she was only for two years, but now she's going to face
01:01tomorrow a young representative, a Democrat representative.
01:07Her name is Angie Nixon. Angie is from this new movement. It's called Socialist Democrat of America.
01:16Something that here in Florida, in that state, like I said before, most of them are Republican.
01:22They don't look with good eyes. Somebody says it's a socialist. But let's see what's happened.
01:26She has a chance tomorrow. But so far, another information is that 55 million people already vote in those elections.
01:36Samuel, he's from Chicago. He already voted. Are you on vacation here in Florida?
01:42Yes, I'm going back tomorrow.
01:44And you decided to vote before?
01:46Yes, I voted early, back in the first part of October.
01:51What do you think about these commissions, about these elections?
01:54It's very important. Everyone should vote. It's the one thing you have as a right, as a citizen of America,
02:00to vote.
02:01It doesn't matter if you're black, white, Jew, Gentile, rich, poor. Your vote counts. It's the same, you know.
02:09And why do you think here in another country, like in my country, Argentina, you have to vote. It's an
02:16obligation.
02:17And here it's not in the USA. Do you think should change that? They should make it mandatory to go
02:22to vote?
02:22I think it would be nice if they did. But she also had the freedom not to vote. So you
02:30don't want to force it on someone.
02:31What do you think is tomorrow change the balance? Like all the information we are getting so far,
02:38it says that the Democrats are going to get back the Senate and the House of Representatives.
02:44I think they'll get the House back. I'm not sure about the Senate. I think it'll be kind of, it'll
02:49be very close.
02:50But maybe it's 50-50. But we'll see, see what happens.
02:56Many people say this is a referendum on Donald Trump. Do you think it is?
03:01I think so a little bit. I'm from Chicago. He's not very well liked in Chicago.
03:06What do you think about Donald Trump? He's these two years in the government.
03:10He hasn't done very much. I'm not a big fan. I don't like the way he talks about, you know,
03:17his behavior.
03:18It doesn't seem to be, it doesn't set an example to me, to the rest of the world.
03:22We shouldn't talk to people, talk down to people. We should try and talk on a level basis.
03:29Samuel, thank you very much.
03:31Many people here in the USA, they think like Samuel, they are not happy with Donald Trump.
03:36They are not happy with the economy. They are not happy with the way he talks.
03:40They are not happy with the Iran war that's keep going for so long.
03:45But tomorrow, let's see what's happened.
03:47We are going to be from very early informing you what's going on.
03:51I hope you can be with us. I'm going back to the studio.
