The gang talk through two surprises in 24 hours in the election race.

New polling suggests that Kamala Harris will win in Iowa - a state Trump won by nearly 10 points in the last two elections.

But polling is only an indication… they discuss what we can conclude from the result.

Plus, Harris appeared on popular late night comedy show Saturday Night Live. Could it help her in the battle for the undecided voter? Talking of undecideds.. Marianna has been investigating how they’re being targeted by social media platforms.
