CNN
About this episode

While national polls continue to forecast a virtual tie in the US presidential race, a new one in Iowa showing Harris leading Trump by three points in that ruby-red state has raised the question of whether pollsters have been missing a critical voting bloc that could determine the outcome of this election. The widely esteemed Iowa pollster, Ann Selzer, says women are driving the late shift towards Democrats. Journalist Rebecca Traister, who writes about reproductive rights and women's voices for New York magazine, joins Christiane to discuss. 

Also on today's show: Yuval Abraham and Basel Adra, co-directors of the new documentary "No Other Land"; Russian opposition politician Vladimir Kara-Murza
