Message of the day, midterm polling two words, not good. The worst was an NBC News poll in which that organization said that Democrats would vote for Congresspeople at a rate 5% higher. than Republicans would. Well, that turned out to be very, very fallacious. Right now, the vote stands at a plus 4% for Republican voters as far as Congress is concerned. So that is a 9% swing that NBC News booted completely. Now, if you're a conspiratorialist, you might say, well, NBC. NBC,
Starting point is 00:04:26 News, a very liberal organization, and they might have done it on purpose. I don't know. I have no data, but not impossible. Individually, the polls were very bad. Emerson College, awful. Maris College, awful. Trafalga, a conservative poll, which was right on in 2016 and did very well. they were bad. So you have to be skeptical going forward of political polling. Why? A few reasons. Number one, it is almost impossible for pollsters to get younger voters 18 to 30. Most of those people do not have house phones anymore. They have cell phones. And if the cell phone rings and they don't recognize the number, they don't take the call. So it is very, very difficult to canvass young American voters these days. And in the midterms, they want solidly Democrat. Then you have conservative voters, many of whom
Starting point is 00:05:40 hang up on the pollsters because they don't trust the process. And we all know that's true. you get a call somebody identifies themselves as being from some college Quinnipiac Maris Emerson Monmouth and a conservative voter
Starting point is 00:06:00 goes I don't think so so that is underpolled as well so you got younger Americans you got conservative Americans and then older people they're more likely to engage
Starting point is 00:06:15 but it's dicey, particularly in urban centers. Now, the most accurate predictions came from, and I so hate to say this, my hand is actually shaking. The most accurate predictions came from the socialist Michael Moore. Now, it was a guess, and Moore was putting out there what he wanted to happen, but he was right. I was half right. I got the House, I was close to the Senate, but I was surprised. I thought there would be that proverbial red wave. I'm Bill O'Reilly, and I approve the message by writing it.

Now, the O'Reilly Update brings you something you might not know. The United States has the highest living standards of any nation. On average, Americans enjoy more income, better health care, have twice the living space that the typical European has. However, the USA also leads the developed world in another.
Starting point is 00:08:17 very grim statistic. Murder. Here are the facts. Compared to 2019, the homicide rate this year has grown 40 percent for zero. In the last 36 months, more than 70,000 Americans have been murdered. Two-thirds of all of those killings were committed with a gun. 70% occur in cities with populations of more than 100,000 people. 15% of the murders happen in the suburbs. African Americans are 56% of homicide offenders and 55% of victims. African Americans make up 13% of the population
Starting point is 00:09:05 so you can see the extent of that problem. Few murders are actually solved by the police. cops clear just 55% of the murders they investigate. In Baltimore, that figure is 45%. If you shoot someone in Chicago, the odds are you will never be caught. Even if you are arrested, many charges are eventually downgraded by progressive district attorneys. According to the FBI, the biggest factor behind the rise in violent crime, drug gangs. A hundred thousand gang members are on the streets of America every day.
Starting point is 00:09:50 100,000. This year, the most dangerous places in the country are Cleveland, Memphis, Kansas City, Chicago, Detroit, Philadelphia, Baltimore, St. Louis, Washington, and the worst city for murder and violent crime, New Orleans. Murders in the Big Easy are 2,000 percent higher than the national average. New Orleans now ranks as the ninth most dangerous city on earth. Back after this.
