President Biden was in Syracuse, New York on Thursday to tout his party’s economic accomplishments – and to send a warning about what he says Republican control of Congress could mean by comparison. It’s part of Democrats’ final dash before election day. Meanwhile over 15 million ballots have already been cast in early voting around the country. Plus, states gear up to spend billions on broadband access. And, Afro Latinos are playing a bigger role in baseball. Guest: Axios' Mike Allen, Emma Hurt, Margaret Harding McGill and Keldy Ortiz.
