>> FROM THE HEART OF WHERE INNOVATION, MONEY, AND POWER COLLIDE IN SILICON VALLEY AND BEYOND, THIS IS BLOOMBERG TECHNOLOGY WITH CAROLINE HYDE AND ED LUDLOW. CAROLINE: LIVE FROM NEW YORK AND SAN FRANCISCO, THIS IS BLOOMBERG TECHNOLOGY. IT IS ELECTION DAY AND THE TECH POLICIES AND APPLICATIONS THAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT ON THE LAST DAY OF VOTING. ED: PLUS, SHARES JUMP AS THEY POST RECORD PRODUCT AMID UNWAVERING AI DEMAND. CAROLINE: APPLE SMART GLASSES, THE INTERNAL STUDY CODENAMED ATLAS AS IT FOLLOWS SNAP AND META'S LEAD. AS PEOPLE HEAD IN PERSON TO THE POLLS, BIG TECH IS LEADING THE CHARGE. NVIDIA AND TESLA ARE ON THE HIGHER SIDE.

BIG TECH ALSO DRIVES FROM AN EARNINGS PERSPECTIVE. WHAT ARE YOU WATCHING ON THE MICRO? ED: PALANTIR SHARES OF ONTRACK FOR THE BIGGEST JUMP SINCE FEBRUARY. WHAT IS ASTONISHING IS OUT OF NOWHERE. THIS IS A COMPANY WITH $114 BILLION MARKET CAP. IT IS ALL ON REVENUE IN THE QUARTER GONE, LITTLE MORE THAN $700 MILLION OR THE NARRATIVE IS INCREDIBLY CLEAR. UNWAVERING AI DEMAND FROM CORPORATE AMERICA AND THE PUBLIC SECTOR. LET'S GET TO PALANTIR WITH MANDEEP SINGH. WHERE WOULD YOU LIKE TO START? THE STORY OF PALANTIR IS LONG-TERM. WHAT JUMPED OUT FROM ITS EARNINGS PRINT FOR YOU? MANDEEP: IT IS ON THE BACK OF SOME CONNECTION THAT THEY HAVE FOUND WITH IMPLEMENTING LLM'S.

EVERYONE IS LOOKING FOR WAYS TO DEPLOY. To Palantir's credit, they found the right pivot. That is why you are seeing that especially strong momentum on the government side, but also defense tech companies on the commercial side. I think in the U.S. they have done particularly well because of the data lineage and that they have done so well over the years in terms of ontology. Caroline: What is interesting is the note you put out saying that perhaps there was a rush to spend budgets from the U.S. government perspective. Have they diversified enough to make sure that they've got the private sector where they want it to be? Mandeep: We are in an environment of

HEIGHTENED GEOPOLITICAL TENSIONS AND THAT HAS TRADITIONALLY BENEFITED PALANTIR. I AM WARY OF THEIR MOMENTUM ON THE INTERNATIONAL SIDE, GIVEN THAT IT IS STILL 30% PLUS OF THEIR BUSINESS. THAT IS WHERE YOU SEE A TAPERING OFF OF GROWTH GIVEN HOW CONTROVERSIAL THAT THE CEO CAN BE AT TIMES. WHEN IT COMES TO SOFTWARE COMPANIES COME YOU WANT TO SHOW RECURRING REVENUE. THAT IS WHY CLOUD NAMES HAVE FETCHED PREMIUM MULTIPLES. PALANTIR CURRENTLY TRADES AT A PREMIUM MULTIPLE. CAN THEY SUSTAIN THIS MOMENTUM? INTERNATIONAL IS KEY, AND I'M NOT SURE THEY CAN SUSTAIN THAT KIND OF MOMENTUM. CAROLINE: MANDEEP SINGH OF BLOOMBERG INTELLIGENCE BRINGING US THE

FUNDAMENTALS. LET'S GET BACK TO WHAT THE DAY IS. IT IS ELECTION DAY IN THE U.S., AND THE POLLING CONTINUES TO SHOW THE RACE AS CLOSE AS ANY IN MODERN HISTORY. WE BRING IT BACK TO KAILEY LEINZ, WHO JOINS US AT THE START OF HER MARATHON OF A DAY. BRING US UP TO WHAT WE SHOULD BE LOOKING AT. >> THIS WILL COME DOWN TO TURNOUT. WITH MARGINS THIS CONSISTENTLY TIGHT, IT WILL BE ABOUT WHO CAN CONVINCE VOTERS TO GET OFF THE COUCH AND VOTE FOR THEM. IT'S NO LONGER CONVINCING THEM TO VOTE FOR DONALD TRUMP OR KAMALA HARRIS, BUT TO GET THEM TO VOTE AT ALL. MILLIONS OF AMERICANS HAVE ALREADY DONE SO. MORE THAN 83 MILLION PEOPLE HAD ALREADY CAST THEIR VOTE.

THOSE ELIGIBLE TO VOTE IS ONLY 244 MILLION. HOW MUCH OF THAT ELECTORATE SHOWS UP TODAY WHEN THEY GO TO THE POLLS? SEVEN STATES IS WHERE THE TURNOUT WILL MATTER THE MOST. BATTLEGROUNDS IN THE RUST BELT AND SUNBELT IS WHAT THE CANDIDATES HAVE BEEN ZEROING IN ON AND WHY KAMALA HARRIS SPENT HER ENTIRE DAY YESTERDAY IN PENNSYLVANIA WHICH HAS 19 ELECTORAL VOTES. DONALD TRUMP SPENDING TIME IN NORTH CAROLINA AND MICHIGAN AS THEY RACED TO GET TWO TO 70. I WOULD WARN OUR AUDIENCES THAT IT MAY BE THE FACE WE DON'T KNOW -- MAY BE THE CASE WE DON'T KNOW WHO GETS 270. IT COULD TAKE DAYS. ED: THANK YOU FOR YOUR REPORTING. INCREDIBLE COMMAND OF THE DATA.

WHICH IS IMPORTANT. BOTH CANDIDATES HAD CLOSING REMARKS LAST NIGHT. WHERE DID WE LEAVE THINGS IN THE TRUMP AND HARRIS CAMP? KAILEY: WE HEARD SIMILAR THINGS FROM KAMALA HARRIS. SHE WAS TO TURN THE PAGE OF WHAT SHE WANTS TO -- SHE WANTS TO TURN THE PAGE ON WHAT SHE CALLS A DARK PART OF AMERICAN POLITICS. DONALD TRUMP IS TRYING TO MAKE HIMSELF THE CHANGE CANDIDATE IN THIS RACE, SUGGESTING THAT KAMALA HARRIS, AS PART OF THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION, WHICH IN MANY WAYS HAS BEEN UNPOPULAR, ESPECIALLY WITH THE HANDLING OF THE ECONOMY, SHOWS THAT THE COUNTRY NEEDS TO MOVE ON. HE DESCRIBED THAT THE COUNTRY CAN'T TAKE FOUR MORE YEARS AS WHAT HE REFERRED TO LAST NIGHT.

AS GROSS INCOMPETENCE. DONALD TRUMP SHOULD BE VOTING ANY TIME NOW IN HIS HOME STATE OF FLORIDA. HE IS ALLOWED TO DO SO EVEN THOUGH HE WAS A CONVICTED FELON. NEW YORK LAW DICTATES THAT A CONVICTED FELON CAN STILL VOTE AND FLORIDA RECOGNIZES THAT. HE WILL BE ABLE TO CAST A VOTE FOR HIMSELF. KAMALA HARRIS IS IN D.C. AND WILL BE GOING TO HOWARD UNIVERSITY FOR HER ELECTION NIGHT PARTY THIS EVENING. AT THIS POINT, THERE IS NOTHING LEFT THAT EITHER OF THEM CAN DO. THE CLOSING ARGUMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE AND THE GROUND GAME HAS BEEN WORKING FOR MONTHS. WE HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE TALLY TO COME IN. ED: LET'S GET THE MARKET'S PERSPECTIVE.

EQUITY MARKETS ARE HIGHER. CAP TECH STOCKS ARE LEADING THE WAY. VOTING IS UNDERWAY. WHAT DOES THAT TELL YOU, IF ANYTHING? >> I THINK THAT THE MARKETS ARE READY FOR THIS ELECTION TO BE OVER AND FOR SOME OF THE UNCERTAINTIES TO BE OVER. I THINK THERE IS A LOT OF EXCITEMENT ABOUT THAT, BUT DEPENDING ON WHO WINS AND WHAT WASHINGTON LOOKS LIKE, THERE ARE ISSUES THAT MAY BE FACING TECH ON THE REGULATORY SIDE. IF I'M TAKING A LOOK AT WHAT MIGHT BE LYING AHEAD, AND THESE THINGS CAN CHANGE, I WOULD PUT THEM INTO THREE BUCKETS. ONE IS THAT THINGS THAT ARE PRETTY KNOWN. ONE THING IS NATIONAL SECURITY. FOR THE SEMICONDUCTOR INDUSTRY AND AI DEVELOPMENT, I WOULD LOOK AT THAT AND SAY THAT THERE

MAY BE A CHALLENGE WHEN WE ARE TALKING ABOUT IMPORTING AND EXPORTING THINGS FROM CHINA, AND UNDOING SOME OF THE GLOBAL SUPPLY CHAIN WILL BE A CHALLENGE IN CREATING LESS RELIANCE ON CHINA. THE OTHER IS ANTITRUST ISSUES. THAT IS THE UNKNOWN. A POTENTIAL HARRIS ADMINISTRATION, WE HAVE SEEN THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION BE NOT AS FRIENDLY. THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION, I THINK THERE IS THE ASSUMPTION THEY WILL BE MORE FRIENDLY, ESPECIALLY WITH THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, BUT THAT IS NOT ALWAYS THE CASE. WHILE TRUMP WAS PRESIDENT BETWEEN 2016-2020 -- ED: WE ARE ZEROED IN ON THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE, BUT THE COMPOSITION OF CONGRESS WILL HAVE AN IMPACT. IN PARTICULAR, IF YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT REGULATION,

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, AND ELECTRIC VEHICLES, THE STANDING IMPACT OF THE IRA AND ANY CHANGES. HOW DO YOU MODEL FOR THAT? ANNA: ON THE EV SIDE? ED: SURE. ANNA: ON THE EV SIDE I THINK THAT THERE IS WHAT WE ESTABLISHED AS WHAT CONGRESS WOULD WANT. IF YOU HAVE A DEMOCRATIC SWEEP IT WILL LOOK ONE WAY. A REPUBLICAN SWEEP WILL LOOK. ANOTHER WAY THE AMERICAN PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN THROUGH SALES. TESLA DID REALLY WELL. IN TERMS OF VOLUME IT WAS DOWN. IF YOU LOOK AT FORD AND GM, THERE EV SALES WERE DOWN. I DON'T KNOW IF WASHINGTON IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO DEMAND, ESPECIALLY FOR THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, THAT KIND OF REGULATION. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE MIGHT NOT BE FOR IT. I'M NOT SURE IF IT WILL SHAKE

OUT THE WAY THAT WE MIGHT PROJECT. CAROLINE: TESLA IS ONE OF THE LEADING POINTS CONTRIBUTORS TO THE NASDAQ ON THE DAY AT LEAST. LEADING IS NVIDIA. I WANT TO ASK MORE ABOUT THE SEMICONDUCTOR INDUSTRY AND WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO FACTOR IN TERMS OF FUTURE POLICY THERE, BE IT IN CHINA OR BUILDING IN THE U.S.? ANNA: AI IS THE NATIONAL SECURITY BET THAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT BEFORE. I THINK BUILDING IN THE U.S. WILL TAKE A LONG TIME. WE ARE NOT GOING TO SEE THAT TOMORROW, NEXT YEAR, OR THE NEXT FOUR YEARS. I THINK WITH NVIDIA AND AI, THE CHIPS AND IMPORT AND EXPORT CONTROLS, THAT'S GOING TO BE A BIG TOPIC FOR THE NEXT 10 TO 15 YEARS. CAROLINE: HAVE YOU BEEN WORRIED ABOUT A

POTENTIAL CHANGE OF COURSE WHEN IT COMES TO THE SUBSIDIES AND SUPPORT IN THE U.S. FOR THE CHIPS SECTOR BUILDING IN THE U.S.? HAS THAT CHANGED IN A OF YOUR INVESTMENT ASSUMPTIONS? ANNA: IT DOESN'T WORRY US. AGAIN, THIS WILL TAKE A LONG TIME. IT ACTUALLY MAKES US EXCITED BECAUSE IT TAKES THE RISK OF RELYING TOO MUCH ON TAIWAN AND SOUTH KOREA AND BRINGS IT IN HERE. NOW, YOU ALSO HAVE TO QUESTION, IS THAT GOING TO INCREASE THE COST OF PRODUCTION HERE? IT IS ESSENTIALLY A LITTLE MORE EXPENSIVE TO MAKE THINGS HERE, AND THAT OPENS THE DOOR TO OTHER DISCUSSIONS THAT MAY NOT BE TECH-RELATED BUT EVERYONE WHO USES TECH. CAROLINE:

MONETARY POLICY RELATED IF WE ARE TALKING ABOUT INFLATIONARY PRESSURE. IT IS GOOD TO HAVE YOU. WE WANT TO KEEP AN EYE ON OTHER CHIP-RELATED STOCKS BECAUSE THE KEY CONTRIBUTOR TO THE DOWNSIDE ON THE NASDAQ 100 IS AN NXP. EARNINGS ARE UNDERWHELMING. ISSUES WITH THE CAR INDUSTRY IN PARTICULAR. A SLOW DOWN AND AUTOMOTIVE CUSTOMERS AND WEAK INDUSTRIAL DEMAND. ED: DETAILS ON THE SURVIVAL OF ELON MUSK'S MILLION-DOLLAR SWEEPSTAKES, NEXT. THIS IS BLOOMBERG TECHNOLOGY. ♪ ED: A LEGAL WIN FOR ELON MUSK AS A PENNSYLVANIA JUDGE REJECTED A REQUEST TO HALT HIS MILLION-DOLLAR SWEEPSTAKES RUN BY DONALD TRUMP'S PACK.

WE HAVE COVERED THIS OVER THE DAYS AND WEEKS, AND AT THE HEART WAS, WHAT IS THE LEGAL ISSUE. BRING US THE LATEST OF WHAT THE JUDGE DECIDED AND THE MOMENT ABOUT THE SWEEPSTAKES. >> HI. THE JUDGE HAD A SIX-HOUR HEARING WITH THE DA OF PHILLY ON THE STAND FOR A FEW HOURS AND THE TREASURER OF THE PACK. ALMOST IMMEDIATELY REJECTED THE DA'S REQUEST FOR AN IMMEDIATE ORDER THAT WOULD HAVE HALTED THE PACK. HE SAID THAT HE WILL PUT OUT AN ORDER MOMENTARILY THAT WILL EXPLAIN HIS REASONING. THE DA CONTENDED THAT THE GIVEAWAY VIOLATED STATE LOTTERY LAWS AND CONSUMER PROTECTION LAWS BECAUSE IT WAS NOT PROTECTING THE CONFIDENTIAL PERSONAL INFORMATION OF THE PEOPLE WHO WON THE PRIZE. THE PACK CONTENDED THAT IT WAS

NOT A LOTTERY AT ALL. THESE PEOPLE WERE GIVEN EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS FOR THEIR TIME AS SPOKESPERSONS FOR THE PACK. THEY SAID THAT THEY WERE BEING PUT THROUGH THE RINGER, AND THAT IS WHAT THEY WERE BEING COMPENSATED FOR. THE TREASURER OF THE PACK ON THE STAND SAID THAT HE WAS SURPRISED TO HEAR ELON CALL IT A RANDOM GIVEAWAY BECAUSE THESE PEOPLE WERE BEING COMPENSATED FOR THEIR TIME. CAROLINE: I SUPPOSE THAT THERE IS MORE TRANSPARENCY ON WHAT THIS WAS ALL ABOUT, PAID SPOKESPEOPLE, BUT ULTIMATELY OFF THE HOOK FROM A LEGAL PERSPECTIVE? CHRIS: FOR THE MOST PART. THE DA CONTINUE TO PURSUE DAMAGES AND MADE IT CLEAR THAT HE WILL SEEK MORE MONEY.

THIS IS AN EMERGENCY INJUNCTION MOTION. FOR THE MOST PART, IT IS MOOT. THE GIVEAWAY IS OVER. THEY SAID THEY WEREN'T GOING TO GIVE AWAY MORE MONEY. ELON LAST WEEK TRYING TO GET THIS MOVED TO FEDERAL COURT. THAT IS WHY IT TOOK SO LONG. THE DA ONLY FILED THE SUIT A WEEK AGO. THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO HAVE A HEARING ON THURSDAY THAT GOT CANCELED WHEN ELON TRIED TO MOVE IT TO FEDERAL COURT AND IT GOT PUNTED BACK. THIS IS OVER FOR THE MOMENT AND ELON WAS KIND OF VICTORIOUS EVEN THOUGH OBSTINATELY HE LOST HIS MOVING IT OUT OF COURT. CAROLINE: THANK YOU. SILICON VALLEY HEAVYWEIGHTS LIKE ELON MUSK MADE A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON THIS

YEARS U.S. ELECTION. OUR NEXT GUEST SAID TECH'S INVOLVEMENT BEGAN LONG BEFORE THE 2024 DECISION P. LET'S BRING IN, YOU WROTE AN OP-ED ON THIS TOPIC. TAKE US BACK IN HISTORY. THIS GOES BACK TO THE 1980'S, IN THE 1990'S WHEN TECHNOLOGY CEOS REALLY STARTED TO MAKE THEIR FEELINGS AND MONEY KNOWN IN POLITICS. >> YES, THE CURRENT AGE OF TECH BEGAN IN THE 1980'S WITH THE DESKTOP COMPUTER. NOW WE ARE IN THE THIRD ACT IN TERMS OF AI AND THE SPACE RACE. FROM THE 1980'S, SILICON VALLEY'S PLAYERS, MANY STILL THE SAME NOW AS THEY WERE THEN, STARTING TO SEE BEZOS AND MUSK, STARTED BECOMING POLITICALLY ACTIVE IN THE 1980'S. THEY ENGAGED WITH GOVERNMENT IN

TERMS OF THE CHANGES THAT THEY WANTED IN TERMS OF REGULATION, INVESTMENT, AND THE IDEA OF GOVERNMENT AS A CUSTOMER. CAROLINE: POTENTIALLY WHAT HAS CHANGED HERE IS THAT ONE OF THEM MIGHT WELL TAKE A LEADING ROLE IN THE ADMINISTRATION IF TRUMP GETS IN. I'M TALKING ABOUT ELON MUSK. MOREOVER, WE ARE GETTING MORE TRANSPARENCY ABOUT THEIR ROLES. IS THAT BECAUSE OF THE WAY THAT THEY ARE SELF-IDENTIFYING? IS IT BECAUSE OF THE AGE OF SOCIAL MEDIA THAT WE ARE ABLE TO FIND THESE THINGS OUT? >> IT IS PROBABLY BECAUSE WE HAVE PEOPLE LIKE ELON MUSK BEING PARTICULARLY FLAMBOYANT WITH THE MILLION DOLLAR LOTTERY WHERE THERE HAS BEEN SO MUCH FOCUS ON THE $1 MILLION. IT IS GREAT TO HAVE THAT,

BECAUSE WE ARE NOW SEEING THE POWER OF TECH. PREVIOUSLY, THE PAYPAL MAFIA KIND OF FUNCTIONED WITH A OATH OF SILENCE IN TERMS OF THEIR POLITICAL VIEWS. YOU'RE SEEING IT COMING OUT NOW -- YOU'RE SEEING IT COMING OUT NOW HOW MUCH SOMEONE LIKE ELON MUSK CAN INFLUENCE NARRATIVES P ARE NOT JUST THROUGH MONEY, BUT IN TERMS OF HOW THEY THINK ABOUT THE ECONOMY, AND OF COURSE, HOW MUSK IS THINKING THAT ISSUES LIKE IMMIGRATION. ED: IN YOUR RESEARCH, HAVE YOU FOUND SPECIFIC EVIDENCE THAT AN ENDORSEMENT FROM A TECHNOLOGY LEADER LIKE MUSK OR APPEAL FROM LEADERS IN TECHNOLOGY TOOK VOT -- TO VOTE TRANSLATES TO ACTION BY THE ELECTORATE IN THE VOTING BASE?

>> IT DOES HAVE SOME IMPACT. THE VERY FIRST SILICON VALLEY ELECTION TOOK PLACE IN 1992 WHEN CLINTON WENT OUT TO WOO SILICON VALLEY. THE DEMOCRATS WANTED TO BE SEEN AS A PRO-BUSINESS, PRO-TECH PARTY. THE ENDORSEMENT THAT SILICON VALLEY GAVE HIM THREE WEEKS AHEAD OF THAT ELECTION ACTUALLY DID HELP IN TERMS OF SHIFTING THE MOOD SOMEWHAT. AT THAT POINT HE WAS ALREADY AHEAD IN THE POLLS. IT DOES HELP IN SOME WAY IN TERMS OF BOOSTING THE CANDIDATE'S CREDENTIALS. WE HAVE SEEN THAT HAPPENING THIS TIME WITH KAMALA HARRIS AND TRUMP VYING FOR SILICON VALLEY ENDORSEMENTS. ED: DO YOU BELIEVE THAT TECHNOLOGY IS A PRIORITY FOR BOTH CAMPAIGNS IN THE SELECTION? CHRIS: ABSOLUTELY.

I THINK THAT WHEN WE HAVE CANDIDATES COMPETING FOR SILICON VALLEY VOTES AND ENDORSEMENTS, IT ACTUALLY MEANS THAT IT IS A WIN-WIN FOR SILICON VALLEY, IRRESPECTIVE IF IT IS HARRIS OR TRUMP IN THE WHITE HOUSE. CAROLINE: BROADLY, WE NEED TO ULTIMATELY THINK ABOUT IF THE ELECTORATE DO YOU THINK HAS THAT TRANSPARENCY, THE KNOWLEDGE THAT WITH ENDORSEMENTS, HITTING THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL, THERE MIGHT BE POSITIVES FOR THE COMPANIES THAT THEY RUN IN THE LATER HALF OF THE ADMINISTRATION? NUR: I THINK THAT ALL OF US ARE BECOMING MUCH MORE AWARE OF THE POWER OF BIG TECH. WE ARE NOW LIVING IN THE AGE OF TECH FOR THE PAST 40 YEARS. YES, THE ELECTORATE IS

BEGINNING TO PAY MORE ATTENTION. WHEN WE HAVE PEOPLE LIKE ELON MUSK, IN A WAY, HE HAS HELPED ADD TO THE NEED FOR MORE TRANSPARENCY AND IS MOVING THE PROCESS TO BE MORE TRANSPARENT, IN FACT, INADVERTENTLY. ED: THANK YOU. COMING UP, HOW APPLE IS PITCHING A NEW INVESTMENT IN INDONESIA AS THE COMPANY TRIES TO LIFT A BAN ON IPHONE 16 SALES. THIS IS BLOOMBERG TECHNOLOGY. ♪ ED: IT IS TIME FOR TALKING TECH. NINTENDO SLASHED ITS FOUR-YEAR OUTLOOK AFTER REPORTING ITS FIFTH STRAIGHT QUARTER OF PROFIT DECLINES. IT ALSO CUT EXPECTATIONS FOR SWITCH CONSOLE SALES. AMAZON SAYS THAT IT IS COMMITTED TO BUILDING A DATA CENTER CAMPUS NEXT TO ITS NUCLEAR PLANT IN PENNSYLVANIA. THIS, DESPITE THE TOP U.S.

ENERGY REGULATOR REJECTING A SPECIAL DEAL FOR TTALEN TO POWER THE FACILITY. APPLE WILL PITCH AN INVESTMENT FOR AN INDONESIAN FACTORY TO MAKE PRODUCTS AS PART OF A BID TO LIFT INDONESIA'S BAN ON IPHONE 16 SALES OVER A DOMESTIC MANUFACTURING REQUIREMENT. CAROLINE: WE ALSO HAVE A DISCUSSION ON SEPARATING ELECTION FACT FROM FICTION. WE WILL SPEAK WITH DANIELLE LEE TOMSON. THIS IS BLOOMBERG TECHNOLOGY. ♪ CAROLINE: WELCOME BACK TO BLOOMBERG TECHNOLOGY, I AM CAROLINE HYDE IN NEW YORK. ED: IMF LOBO IN SAN FRANCISCO. WE SEE PEOPLE LINING UP -- I AM ED LUDLOW IN SAN FRANCISCO. WE SEE PEOPLE LINING UP TO CAST THEIR VOTES TODAY. BIG TECH IS LEADING THE CHARGE

WITH BITCOIN ON THE HIGHER SIDE AS WELL. WE SEE THAT A SOME SORT OF PROXY FOR A POTENTIAL TRUMP ADMINISTRATION COMING IN, ONE THAT HAS SHOWN TREMENDOUS SUPPORT OF CRYPTOCURRENCIES IN THE UNITED STATES. I'M LOOKING AT A ECOSYSTEM LEAD HIGHER ON THE TECH SIDE BY EARNINGS. PALANTIR IS STILL SHOWING THAT THE AI DEMAND IS RESILIENT AND IN MANY WAYS MORE THAN 22% AFTER THE NUMBERS FOR PALANTIR WITH PARTICULARLY STRONG GROWTH IN THE UNITED STATES. THE SUPER MICRO COMPUTER, SOME NUMBERS WE GET AFTER THE BELL, BUT FOR MANY IT WON'T BE ABOUT THE NUMBERS THAT THEY SHOW. WE ARE EXPECTING A 200% INCREASE IN THEIR SALES FOR THIS FISCAL QUARTER. PEOPLE WANT TO KNOW, WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE DOJ

INVESTIGATION? WHAT HAPPENED IN TERMS OF THEM LOSING THEIR ACCOUNTING? WHAT ON THE TRANSPARENCY? SEVEN OUT OF THE LAST EIGHT TRADING DAYS WE HAVE SEEN DOUBLE-DIGIT MOVES, QUADRUPLE THE VOLATILITY FOR BITCOIN. THIS IS A PROXY ON TRUMP AND A WIN. ED: A STORY THAT BROKE LATE LAST NIGHT, PREDICTIONS BETTING PLATFORM POLY MARKET HAS BEEN PAYING U.S.-BASED INFLUENCERS TO PROMOTE ELECTION BETTING EVEN THOUGH IT IS BARRED FROM LETTING ANYONE IN THE COUNTRY USE THE TOOL TO PLACE WAGERS. MEGAN MURPHY JOINS US NOW. WHAT DID YOU LEARN? >> I THINK THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE MAY HAVE SEEN POLYMARKET ACROSS THEIR SOCIAL MEDIA. THERE HAS BEEN A FLURRY OF MEMES AND GRAPHICS SHOWING

KAMALA VERSUS TRUMP WITH A LANDSLIDE TO TRUMP. WE HAD HEARD THAT POLYMARKET HAD BEEN REACHING OUT TO U.S.-BASED SOCIAL MEDIA INFLUENCERS SAYING WE WANT TO PAY FOR YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA CONTENT. THAT IS WHEN WE SAW THE RISE IN POLYMARKET PARTNERS. EVEN THOUGH POLY MARKET IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE TARGETING THE U.S., THEY ARE REALLY GOING FOR EYEBALLS FROM THE U.S. PICKING UP WITH ANY SOCIAL MEDIA INFLUENCE ARE BASED IN THE U.S., NOT RAISING CONCERNS ABOUT THE FACT THAT THE AUDIENCE IS U.S.-BASED. SAYING FLOOD YOUR MARKET WITH ADVERTS FOR THE MARKET EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE NOT TECHNICALLY SUPPOSED TO BE TRADING. CAROLINE:

LET'S TALK ABOUT IF IT IS TRADES OR IF THE POLYMARKET ALSO BRINGS DATA FOR MANY. THEIR COUNTER ARGUMENT IS THEY JUST WANT EYEBALLS TO THE SERVICE EVEN IF IN THE U.S. YOU ARE BARRED FROM MAKING ANY PARTICULAR BET? MAGI: THE POLYMARKET SPOKESPERSON SAID THAT 99% OF PEOPLE ARE JUST COMING TO THE WEBSITE TO VIEW AS A NEW SOURCE TO THEM. 1% PLACE TRADES. THE WAY THAT IT IS SHOWN ON SOCIAL MEDIA, THE WAY THAT INFLUENCERS EXPLAIN HOW THEY WERE ASKED TO PRESENT THEMSELVES, IT IS LIKE PULLING DATA. WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE SOCIAL MEDIA POSTS, IT LOOKS LIKE POLL DATA. IF THIS 1% BASED OUTSIDE OF THE U.S. ARE THE ONES MAKING THE TRADES AND CREATING THIS DATA, THAT

MEANS THAT YOU ARE SEEING PREDICTIONS FROM PEOPLE OUTSIDE THE U.S., EXCEPT IT LOOKS LIKE A POLL. POLLING DATA IS NOT SUPPOSED TO HAVE INFORMATION FROM ANYONE OUTSIDE THE U.S. IT IS A LITTLE MANIPULATIVE FOR PEOPLE WHO MAY NOT UNDERSTAND ITS -- IT IS PREDICTIONS BETTING, BECAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE POLL DATA. CAROLINE: TELLING THEM NOT TO TRUST THE POLLS TRUST THE MARKETS. A FASCINATING STORY. POLYMARKET IN A PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN MARKED BY WHAT SEEMS TO BE AMPLIFIED DIVISIVE RHETORIC. MANY ARE LOOKING TO SEPARATE FACT FROM FICTION. DANIELLE LEE TOMSON WITH THE CENTER FOR AN INFORMED PUBLIC TRANSLATING MISINFORMATION INTO POLICY. THERE IS A FEELING OF AMPLIFIED

DIVISIVE NEW, BUT IS THAT FEELING A REALITY? DANIELLE: GOOD MORNING. THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME ON THE SHOW. THE TRUTH IS, WHEN YOU ARE ON SOCIAL MEDIA ON ELECTION DAY, IT IS LIKE TRYING TO DRINK WATER FROM A FIRE HYDRANT. THERE ARE SO MANY FEELINGS, SO MUCH UNCERTAINTY, SO MUCH SPECULATION ABOUT WHAT IS GOING ON THAT IT IS ACTUALLY HARD TO GET A TRUE SENSE OF A SIGNAL IN THE NOISE ON A DAY LIKE TODAY. IT IS HARD TO TELL EXACTLY. WE ARE TRYING TO SHIFT THROUGH ALL OF THE RUMORS TO GET A SENSE OF WHAT'S GOING ON. ED: WE HAVE REPORTED ON THIS PROGRAM IN RECENT DAYS ABOUT HOW, FOR EXAMPLE, U.S. CYBER SECURITY OFFICIALS ARE TRYING TO REESTABLISH TRUST

WITH THE VOTING BASE. HAVE YOU ANY DATA, RESEARCH, STUDY THAT TELLS US HOW IN THIS ELECTION IN 2024 MISINFORMATION AND DISTRUST WILL BE A FACTOR RELATIVE TO ELECTIONS IN THE PAST? DANIELLE: ABSOLUTELY. SOMETHING THAT WE HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT'S UNIQUE ABOUT THIS ELECTION IN GENERAL IS SO MUCH OF THE AMERICAN PUBLIC IS PRIMED TO MISTRUST ELECTION DATA ON THE REPUBLICAN RIGHT. WE THINK OF IT AS THE THREE C'S. PEOPLE OUT THERE HAVE CONVINCED THE AMERICAN PUBLIC THAT THIS ELECTION WILL NOT BE SAFE, ALTHOUGH IT OVERWHELMINGLY BY OFFICIALS IS SAFE. THEY ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO GO COLLECT EVIDENCE THAT THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG HAPPENING ON ELECTION DAY. WITH 130 THOUSAND DIFFERENT POLLING SITES IN AMERICA, THERE

ARE BOUND TO BE IRREGULARITIES, GLITCHES, ALTERCATIONS. BUT THESE HAVE REMEDIES. FINALLY, PEOPLE WILL TRY TO CONTEST THE ELECTION RESULTS, PROCESSES, OR PROCEDURES LEGALLY OR POLITICALLY AFTER THIS. IT'S TRUE THAT THERE IS INCREASED MISTRUST, PREDOMINANTLY AMONG REPUBLICANS. DEMOCRATS TEND TO TRUST ELECTIONS. WE ARE GOING TO SEE SOME OF THAT PLAY OUT ONLINE. ED: IN 2020, I WAS IN ARIZONA. THE INTEGRITY OF VOTING SYSTEMS WAS THE ISSUE THEN. WHAT IS THE ISSUE TODAY ON NOVEMBER 5, 2024? DANIELLE: WE HAVE SEEN A COUPLE OF THEMES EMERGE DURING EARLY VOTING AND TODAY SOMEWHERE AROUND FRAUDULENT VOTER REGISTRATION FORMS. SOME OF THEM ARE A

LEGEND GLITCHES IN MACHINES -- ALLEGED GLITCHES IN MACHINES. THOSE ARE ISSUES THAT WE HAVE SEEN AND WILL CONTINUE TO SEE, BUT IT'S IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER THAT THESE ISSUES TEND TO HAVE REMEDIES, AND THAT'S A GOOD THING. CAROLINE: SPEAKING OF REMEDIES, YOU ARE LOOKING INTO MISINFORMATION AND TRYING TO CONVERT IT INTO POLICY. IS THERE FUTURE POLICY THAT CAN TACKLE THIS GOING FORWARD? DANIELLE: IT'S A GOOD QUESTION. TODAY, WE MOSTLY FOCUS ON GATHERING DIFFERENT TYPES OF DATA SETS OF HOW RUMORS SPREAD ON PLATFORMS THAT IS GOING TO INFORM POLICY CHANGE, WHETHER THAT IS INTERNAL TO TECH ORGANIZATIONS OR GOVERNMENT ORGANIZATIONS -- OR ALSO, TO THE DIFFERENT ELECTION

OFFICIALS AND ELECTION BOARDS AROUND THE COUNTRY WHO WANT TO GAIN THE TRUST AND KEEP THE TRUST OF THE AMERICAN PUBLIC. THAT IS WHAT WE ARE FOCUSED ON TODAY, GETTING THAT DATA TO HELP THOSE SOLUTIONS LATER. ED: DANIELLE LEE TOMSON OF THE UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. COMING UP, WHY ELECTION INTERFERENCE FEARS COULD LINGER. WE SPEAK WITH THE FORMER CHIEF OF STAFF, KIERSTEN TODT. THIS IS BLOOMBERG TECHNOLOGY. TERMINAL OR ONLINE AT APPLE, SPOTIFY, AND I HEART. THIS IS BLOOMBERG. CAROLINE: VOTERS ARE HEADING TO THE POLLS, TOP OF MIND IS SECURITY AND ALLEVIATING FEARS OF ELECTION INTERFERENCE FOR WHAT COULD BE A HOTLY CONTESTED

OUTCOME. JOINING US IS KIERSTEN TODT, NOW PRESIDENT OF CREATIVE AGENCY ONE DRAWS. WE RELY ON YOUR CYBER READINESS EXPERTISE BECAUSE WE UNDERSTAND THE MISINFORMATION CONCERNS. GIVE US THE FACTS THAT WE ARE RESILIENT AND SAFE. KIERSTEN: WE ARE SAFE. WHILE ELECTIONS ARE POLITICAL, ELECTION SECURITY IS NOT. ELECTION SECURITY IS NATIONAL SECURITY, AND ELECTION OFFICIALS AND STAKEHOLDERS HAVE NEVER BEEN MORE PREPARED TO ADMINISTER A SAFE, SECURE, RESILIENT ELECTION. WHAT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE IS AFTER THE 2016 ELECTION, ELECTIONS THEMSELVES BECAME CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE, MEANING THAT WE DETERMINE AS A FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WITH INDUSTRY THAT ELECTIONS ARE

CRITICAL TO HOW WE FUNCTION AS A SOCIETY, AND THEREFORE, ADDITIONAL RESOURCES HAVE BEEN ALLOCATED TO STATE AND LOCAL OFFICIALS WHO ARE ACTIVELY -- WHO HAVE ACTIVELY PREPARED FOR AND ARE ADMINISTERING THESE ELECTIONS. CAROLINE: GIVE US DETAILS. RESOURCES ARE ONE THING, BUT ACTUAL PRACTICES, WAYS THAT WE KNOW AND CAN TRUST IN THE SYSTEMS THAT EXIST. KIERSTEN: WE HAVE TO LOOK HISTORICALLY. SINCE THE BEGINNING OF 2023, THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WORKED CLOSELY WITH STATE AND LOCAL OFFICIALS TO CONDUCT PHYSICAL ASSESSMENTS OF ELECTION SYSTEMS, IMPORTANTLY TO RUN ALMOST 200 EXERCISES THAT PREPARE THESE INDIVIDUALS AND COMMUNITIES AND REGIONS FOR DIFFERENT SCENARIOS THAT MAY

COME INTO PLAY. IT IS ALSO IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT ELECTIONS ARE NOT CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET, THEREFORE GIVING IT A DIFFERENT LEVEL OF RESILIENCE. WHAT IS ALSO CRITICAL IS THAT 97% OF REGISTERED VOTERS ARE IN JURISDICTIONS WITH PAPER RECORDS, MEANING THAT WE HAVE A BACKUP AND RESILIENCE FOR AUDITS, ETC. ED: LAST NIGHT U.S. INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES ISSUED A JOINT STATEMENT. THEY ARE REPORTING UNPRECEDENTED, MORNING THAT ADVERSARIES WITH RUSSIA AT THE FOREFRONT HAVE STEPPED UP EFFORTS TO DISRUPT THE SELECTION. CALLING ON YOUR EXPERIENCE AND TIME IN RELEVANT AGENCIES, WHY IS THAT SIGNIFICANT? KIERSTEN: WHAT WE KNOW IS THAT OUR

FOREIGN ADVERSARIES ARE ABSOLUTELY CONDUCTING MALIGN INFLUENCE OPERATIONS THAT HAVE TWO REAL GOALS. FIRST, TO UNDERMINE THE CONFIDENCE OF AMERICANS IN OUR DEMOCRACY. SECOND, TO PIT AMERICANS AGAINST ONE ANOTHER WHEN THERE IS NOTHING THERE. WHAT IS CRITICAL IS WE ARE SEEING THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WORK ACROSS AGENCIES TO PUT OUT JOINT ANNOUNCEMENTS AND GET THIS INFORMATION OUT AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. THIS IS A BIG DIFFERENCE FROM WHERE WE WERE IN 2016, 2018, 2020, 2022. IT HAS IMPROVED EACH YEAR. THE MORE WE HEAR ABOUT IT, THE BETTER. THERE IS INFORMATION WE ARE ABLE TO COMMUNICATE TO VOTERS TO SAY BE AWARE, SO WE ARE CREATING A MORE EDUCATED ELECTORATE. ED:

WHAT ARE THE BIGGEST VULNERABILITIES THAT A VOTER TODAY MAY FACE THROUGHOUT THE DAY. WHERE IS THIS MANIFESTING ITSELF FOR EVERYDAY PEOPLE? KIERSTEN: I WORRY LESS ABOUT CYBERSECURITY AND MORE ABOUT JUST PEOPLE'S CONFIDENCE IN THE SYSTEM. THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A MORE IMPORTANT TIME FOR INDIVIDUALS, CITIZENS, TO BELIEVE IN THE RESILIENCE OF THIS NATION AND OUR ABILITY TO CONDUCT SAFE, SECURE ELECTIONS, AND BE PERSONALLY RESILIENT. EACH VOTER HAS ACCOUNTABILITY AND RESPONSIBILITY IN THIS MOMENT TO GET THE RIGHT INFORMATION. STATE AND LOCAL ELECTION OFFICIALS ARE THE TRUSTED SOURCES FOR INFORMATION. IF A VOTER HAS ANY DOUBT ABOUT ANYTHING, TYPICALLY THEY ARE ON WEBSITES. VOTE.GOV CAN DIRECT YOU WHERE TO GO.

IT'S IMPORTANT THAT INDIVIDUALS AND VOTERS FIND THIS INFORMATION TO BE SECURE. ED: FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP IS SPEAKING IN PALM BEACH, FLORIDA WHERE HE HAS CAST HIS VOTE. FMR. PRES. TRUMP: WE WILL SEE HOW IT TURNS OUT, BUT IT SEEMS THEY HAVE SHOWN UP IN FORCE. I GOT A CALL FROM DAN PATRICK IN TEXAS. HE SAID THEY'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT. IT'S BEEN GREAT. REGRETS? YOU ALWAYS HAVE REGRETS. I CAN'T THINK OF ANY, TO BE HONEST. TO USE HER EXPRESSION, I CAN'T THINK OF ANY. I RAN A GREAT CAMPAIGN. MAYBE THE BEST OF THE THREE. WE DID GREAT IN THE FIRST ONE, WE DID MUCH BETTER IN THE SECOND ONE BUT SOMETHING HAPPENED, AND THIS WAS THE BEST, I WOULD SAY THAT THIS IS

THE BEST CAMPAIGN WE RAN. >> THE POSSIBILITY THAT YOU AND VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS MAY NOT GET TO 270 ELECTORAL VOTES TONIGHT? FMR. PRES. TRUMP: THAT SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN. THIS ELECTION SHOULD BE OVER. THEY SPEND ALL THIS MONEY ON MACHINES. IF THEY USED PAPER BALLOTS, IT WOULD BE OVER BY 10:00. BY THE WAY, PAPER BALLOTS ARE 8% OF THE COST. IF THEY WOULD USE PAPER BALLOTS, VOTER ID, PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP, ONE-DAY VOTING, IT WOULD ALL BE OVER BY 10:00 IN THE EVENING. IT'S CRAZY. THEY USE VERY EXPENSIVE COMPUTERS. I HERE IN PENNSYLVANIA, THEY WON'T HAVE AN ANSWER UNTIL TWO TO THREE DAYS FROM NOW. I THINK IT'S AN ABSOLUTE OUTRAGE. MAYBE IT WILL BE LATER.

IT IS PAPER BALLOTS IN FRANCE. THEY WENT PAPER BALLOTS BECAUSE THE MAIL-IN WASN'T WORKING, IT WAS CORRUPT. IN FRANCE THEY WENT PAPER BALLOTS. AT 10:00 IN THE MORNING TO HAVE 37 MILLION VOTES COUNTED. THEY HAD A WINNER AND LOSER. THIS COUNTRY, I'M JUST HEARING THAT IN CERTAIN STATES IT IS GOING TO BE A LONG TIME. AND IT WON'T EVEN BE CLOSE. HE WON'T EVEN BE THAT CLOSE. THEY SAY I'M GOING TO WIN THE STATE. BUT IT'S GOING TO TAKE A LONG TIME TO SEE. >> DO YOU SEE A WORLD WHERE YOU DON'T DECLARE VICTORY TONIGHT? FMR. PRES. TRUMP: I'M HEARING THE SAME THINGS YOU ARE HEARING. STATES WHERE I AM UP BY A LOT

BUT THEY WON'T HAVE A NUMBER FOR A LONG TIME. SO, WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A VERY SPECIAL GROUP OF PEOPLE, MANY OF WHOM YOU KNOW. THEY WILL BE AT MAR-A-LAGO. IN ADDITION, WE WILL HAVE 4000 TO 5000 PEOPLE AT THE CONVENTION CENTER. ON THE ASSUMPTION THAT I WIN. OR SOMETHING ELSE HAPPENS, I DON'T KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN TERMS OF DECLARING VICTORY, BUT IN NORMAL TIMES I WOULD GO OVER TO THE CONVENTION CENTER AT SAY 10:00 OR 11:00 OR SOMETHING, BUT I JUST DON'T KNOW. IT LOOKS LIKE WE HAVE A VERY SUBSTANTIAL LEAD. IT LOOKS LIKE WE HAVE MANY MORE REPUBLICANS VOTING TODAY THAN DEMOCRATS, SO WE HAVE A LEAD. IF YOU HAVE A BIGGER VOTE THAT MEANS YOU ARE DOING VERY WELL.

BUT THEY HAVE TO CALL A WINNER. AND THEY SHOULD CALL A WINNER. [INDISCERNIBLE QUESTION] FMR. PRES. TRUMP: JUST STOP TALKING ABOUT THAT. [INDISCERNIBLE QUESTION] FMR. PRES. TRUMP: I WAS HONORED TO GET JOE ROGAN LAST NIGHT. HE IS A BIG DEAL, A VERY RESPECTED PERSON. MEGAN WAS FANTASTIC. SHE GOT UP AND SAID SOME THINGS THAT WERE REALLY PRETTY AMAZING. I THINK WE RAN A GOOD CAMPAIGN. I HAD GOOD POLICY. WE WANT PEOPLE TO COME INTO OUR COUNTRY, BUT THEY HAVE TO COME IN LEGALLY. WE WANT TO STRONG BORDERS. WE WANT PEOPLE TO COME IN. WE WANT TO BE INCLUSIVE. TO ME, THAT WAS THE BIGGEST ISSUE. I MAY BE WRONG. A LOT OF PEOPLE SAY INFLATION. INFLATION IS A DISASTER, BUT I

THINK IT IS THE SECOND ISSUE. THE FIRST IS THE BORDER. WE CANNOT ALLOW CRIMINALS TO BE PUT BACK INTO OR PUT INTO OUR COUNTRY. YOU HAVE 13,000 PLUS MURDERERS ALLOWED TO ROAM IN OUR COUNTRY. NOT GOING TO BE ALLOWED. HAVE TO GO. YOU HAVE DRUG DEALERS, YOU HAVE TERRORISTS, YOU HAVE A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF PEOPLE THAT SHOULD NOT BE IN OUR COUNTRY, AND WE NEED STRONG BORDERS IN THIS COUNTRY. PERSONALLY, I THINK IT IS THE NUMBER ONE ISSUE. WE WILL SEE HOW IT PANS OUT, BUT I THINK IT IS THE NUMBER ONE ISSUE. [INDISCERNIBLE QUESTION] FMR. PRES. TRUMP: I DON'T HAVE TO TELL THEM. I DON'T HAVE TO TELL THEM THERE WILL BE NO VIOLENCE. OF COURSE THERE WILL BE NO VIOLENCE.

MY SUPPORTERS ARE NOT VIOLENT PEOPLE. I DON'T HAVE TO TELL THEM THAT. I CERTAINLY DON'T WANT ANY VIOLENCE. I DON'T HAVE TO TELL -- THESE ARE GREAT PEOPLE. THESE ARE PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE IN NO VIOLENCE, UNLIKE YOUR QUESTION. YOU BELIEVE IN VIOLENCE. [INDISCERNIBLE QUESTION] FMR. PRES. TRUMP: I THINK I WILL BE AT MAR-A-LAGO FOR THE MOST PART. I'M GOING OVER NOW WITH MELANIA. SHE HAS THE NUMBER ONE BEST SELLER. CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT. WE ARE VERY PROUD OF THE BOOK IS NUMBER ONE. WE ARE GOING TO GO TO THE OFFICE IN WEST PALM AND WE ARE GOING TO SAY HELLO TO THE WORKERS. THEY WORKED VERY HARD. [INDISCERNIBLE QUESTION] FMR. PRES. TRUMP:

I HEAR WE ARE DOING VERY WELL IN GEORGIA. I HEAR WE ARE DOING VERY WELL. I HEAR WE ARE DOING VERY WELL EVERYWHERE. I MAY REGRET THAT STATEMENT, BUT I'M HEARING THAT WE ARE DOING VERY WELL. POWDER? >> [INDISCERNIBLE QUESTION] FMR. PRES. TRUMP: I HAVE NOT PREPARED A SPEECH. I DID SPEECHES LAST NIGHT, ALL DAY LONG, ALL NIGHT LONG, 2:00 IN THE MORNING WE LEFT. WE DID A LOT OF SPEECHES. YOU CAN PROBABLY TELL. >> [INDISCERNIBLE QUESTION] FMR. PRES. TRUMP: I DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT. I AM NOT A DEMOCRAT. I AM ABLE TO MAKE A SPEECH ON PRETTY QUICK NOTICE. IF I WIN I KNOW WHAT I'M GOING TO SAY. I DON'T EVEN WANT TO THINK ABOUT THE LOSING PART.

I WOULD LIKE TO TELL ALL OF THE PEOPLE IN LINE TO STAY IN LINE. WE HAVE TREMENDOUS REPUBLICAN LINES. I HAVE BEEN ASKED TO ACTUALLY SAY, IT TAKES A WHILE. I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE THE STATEMENT THAT I WOULD LIKE THE REPUBLICANS TO STAY IN LINE. DEMOCRATS, IF THEY LIKE, THEY CAN LEAVE, BUT I WOULD LIKE THE REPUBLICANS TO STAY IN LINE. >> [INDISCERNIBLE QUESTION] FMR. PRES. TRUMP: I HAVE NO PRESSURE WHATSOEVER. I AM WINNING THOSE CASES. THE BIGGEST CASE WAS THE FLORIDA CASE, AND IT HAS BEEN WON. I APPRECIATE YOU. NEXT QUESTION. >> REGARDLESS OF WHAT HAPPENS TONIGHT, IS THIS YOUR LAST CAMPAIGN? ARE YOU DONE AFTER THIS? FMR. PRES. TRUMP: I WOULD THINK SO. SAD.

SAD AND VERY FULFILLED. I THINK WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A VERY BIG VICTORY TODAY. >> VERY GOOD, THANK YOU. >> [INDISCERNIBLE QUESTION] FMR. PRES. TRUMP: ALREADY A TRANSITION TEAM, BUT I DON'T LIKE TALKING ABOUT THAT UNTIL I FIND OUT HOW. WE DO. >> [INDISCERNIBLE QUESTION] FMR. PRES. TRUMP: WE'RE NOT LOOKING TO DO DAMAGE TO IRAN. MY TERMS ARE VERY EASY. THEY CAN'T HAVE NUCLEAR WEAPON. I WOULD LIKE THEM TO BE A VERY SUCCESSFUL COUNTRY, BUT THEY CAN'T HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON. >> [INDISCERNIBLE QUESTION] FMR. PRES. TRUMP: WELL, I THINK SECRET SERVICE HAS BEEN A LITTLE TOUGHER, TO PUT IT MILDLY. I SEE MORE MACHINE GUNS THAN I'VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE.

SURROUNDED BY -- I FEEL CONFIDENT WITH SECRET SERVICE. I THINK THEY'VE STEPPED UP. FOR A LONG TIME THEY DIDN'T GIVE US THE MANPOWER, WOMANPOWER. THEY DIDN'T GIVE IT TO US. WE WOULD HAVE RALLIES OF 50,000, 60,000 PEOPLE. I WOULD HAVE LESS PEOPLE THAN JOE BIDEN WHO HAD FIVE PEOPLE SHOW UP AND I WOULD HAVE 55,000 PEOPLE SHOW UP AND I HAD FEWER PEOPLE THAN HIM. THEY SHOULD HAVE DONE A MUCH BETTER JOB. QUITE FRANKLY, FRANKLY, THE PRESIDENT SHOULD MAKE A VERY STRONG STATEMENT TO THE OUTSIDE WORLD, BECAUSE -- I THINK MY TEAM IS INCREDIBLE. THEY SAY IT IS THE BEST RUN CAMPAIGN THEY'VE SEEN. SOME PEOPLE SAY IT IS THE BEST

RUN CAMPAIGN THEY'VE EVER SEEN. IN ORDER TO MAKE THAT STICK, YOU HAVE TO WIN. >> ARE YOU MORE CONFIDENT THAN YOU HAVE BEEN THE LAST TWO RACES? FMR. PRES. TRUMP: AND MY TEAM I AM CONFIDENT. MANY OF THEM ARE THE SAME PLAYERS. SUSIE. A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE THE SAME PLAYERS. >> [INDISCERNIBLE QUESTION] FMR. PRES. TRUMP: I THINK IT IS RIDICULOUS. OPRAH, I WAS AT ONE OF HER LAST SHOWS. THEY PICKED THE BIGGEST PEOPLE AND MADE A BIG DEAL.
