may they rest in peace. and may their memories be a blessing. thanks for watching. erin burnett out front next. >> breaking news. a fatal blow to supreme court of the united states rejecting an attempt by trump and allies to overturn the results in pennsylvania. plus joe biden with a plan to combat the virus in his first 100 days. it is realistic? that may have medical cherts here and a michigan lawmaker is receiving death threats after calling out giuliani for his lies and she speaks out tonight. good evening. the supreme court with three justices president trump appointed delivering the final

devastating blow to trump's request to overturn the results of a free, fair democratic election that he lost. this is the order for the supreme court. one line, one terse lie to deny republican efforts to block the certification of pennsylvania's presidential election results. so let me read you the entire supreme court decision. "the application for relief presented to justice alito and by him referred to the court is denied. so he didn't just respond, right? referred to the court by him a whole court, not a single dissent included in this decision, not a single one. the president so far silent. today he retweeted this image. she is the latest justice on the supreme court. he had her with lasers coming out of her eyes and brought up

the court at an event today about coronavirus. >> we were rewarded with a victory. now let's soo whether or not somebody has the courage, whether it's a legislator or legislatures or whether it's a justice of the supreme court, let's see if they have the courage to do what everybody knows is right? >> the supreme court did what is right? if you call it rurnlg, rigcourad the right thing. let's be clear. the talk from a democratic fairly defeated president today is dangerous. >> we're going to have to see who the next administration is. because we won. and the swing states and there was terrible things that went on. so we'll have to see who the next administration is.

the next administration is the joe biden administration. 223 of and 223 of 249 are calling joe biden president. they're rejecting a resolution that would have declared biden the president-elect. we're out front live outside the white house tonight. is there any sign that team trump is going to admit the president lost? i mean this is a crushing defeat. this is something, you know, they have referred directly to justice alito.

this is a defeat. >> yes. you have to see what the president's reaction is going to be. you can't argue that this court stacked against him given so many of his appointees are on this supreme court. we have not heard from the president directly yet. we have heard from his attorney own statement but no official statements from the campaign. but it is the latest blow to the efforts to try to kind of thwart this or mud i didn't thidy the . they're focusing on a public relations aspect. they're not successful in court anywhere. they've seen a string of court losses. it was filed by pennsylvania republicans. he wants anyone to have courage to help him in his efforts to undermine democracy which is

what he's doing by trying to change the results of this election. and so you can see the president's effort there's are not being successful in court. and so they continue to push this in this public way. it actually is affecting day to day governing that president is doing. earlier today he was saying this administration we don't know what the next administration is going to be. he hopes it will be a trump administration. that was a vaccine summit where no one from the biden transition team had been invited to attend. that the president was asked to explain and justify why given that biden is going to be inaugurated in a few weeks. they will be taking over the distribution plan when it comes to vaccines. of course, the president is instead continuing on with these efforts despite everyone else rebuffing the president at least in a legal and sense of that, maybe not from republican lawmakers that of course he has not won this election despite how many times he tries to claim that he did.

>> that's right, he lost. let's go to the president-elect biden in wilmington, delaware. so this is a supreme court decision, you know, coming terse, one line, you know, no signatures indicating it is from the court as a whole. what is president-elect biden saying about it? >> it is a crushing defeat but one of a string of defeat that's the biden transition and campaign has watched happen over the last month or so. so they really have been taking these seriously to the disagree to which they had layers watching all the cases. this has been over in their view for a long time.

it is another nail in this argument. a biden spokesman says this -- this election is over. joe biden won. he will be sworn in as president in january. period. that is the point here. this election is over. so the biden team moving forward this is not really a big day in their moment. they're trying to get their hands around the virus and things and they're dealing with all these as they come. they know it's over and they have 43 days to take over a dramatic challenge with the coronavirus. >> all right. john, thank you very much. i want to go to lauren's tribe, constitutional law professor at harvard law school and members of al gore's legal team.

let me get your opinion on this decision. this is addressed to justice alito. it came out a terse single line. not a single known dissent. it seems as though the supreme court with one voice has taken a stand here, right? >> that's exactly right. mr. trump, you have lost. 9-0 with all of your appointees agreeing. it's over. you have to move on. we have important work to do with the coronavirus and with national security, the biden team is on track. you have lost. stop undermining democracy, mr. president. you're not going to get anywhere with these efforts to overturn the election and to engineer a coup. you are a loser. >> so professor, as recently as

this afternoon, today, we saw the retweet of amy coney barrett's eyes that he sweeted out and saying well this would be taken care of by congress or the supreme court if they had the courage. he was confident of a win in part because he has hand picked three of the justices. but that is clearly not ow this turned out. and those justices did what was %-p lawyers, after all. they're politicians in robes. donald trump seems to think if he appoints someone, he has them by the throat. wrong, mr. president. they follow the law. i don't always disagree. i often disagree with their view of the law. there is no room for zrement here. this disagreement here. there is no conceivable basis for this ludicrous motion to overturn the pennsylvania

election and steal the right to vote from the pennsylvania electorate. this is absolutely predictable. i predicted it. i don't claim any special cla knowledge here. >> the one terse line is very clear. they want to make it clear. i want to point out that it comes on the same day as, you know, what they call the safe harbor day. the deadline for states to certify their election results before the electoral college meets. you have all the certifications. how final does this make things? >> this is it. today is happy safe harbor day. it's the dha is specified by congress by which if states resolve their internal disputes, their electoral slates cannot be challenged in the joint session of congress that meets january

6th. it's an important day. it goes back to a law passed by congress in 1887 and it was relied on by of all things the u.s. supreme court to decide bush v. gore and they said it's over, folks. i didn't like it then because i thought it was not properly applied. but what was clear is that the court was envoeking the applicable federal law that says when it's over, it's over. and it's over. >> and so this is the talk out there now. i will give you a chance to make this clear. the attorney general of texas filed a lawsuit today to try to validate the election results in four key swing states. this is coming out of texas. but they're suing four other states. the a.g. claiming they used the pandemic to illegally change their election rules.

is there any merit in such a thing coming out of texas about other states? >> texas is the state that suppose lid believes in states sovereignty and now it's going after the states of not only the upper midwest but, gosh, georgia, the old south. it's claiming that it has a right to tell the other states how to count their electoral votes. it's ridiculous they're comparing it to a border dispute and invoking the applicable jurisdiction of the supreme court. this is the most absurd lawsuit i have seen in many years. it's not going anywhere. much it's not going to merit any more than a one line dismissal by the united states supreme court and that is exactly what it will get. >> irony knows no shame. professor, thank you very much for your time. thank you. >> i want to go now to senior congressional correspondent now. we talk about this defeat for trump in the supreme court.

and, you know, i pointed out it was the judicial branch. you have the courage to do what congress has not. republicans still refusing to admit biden is president-elect. they simply stated that fact. so what now? you get this ruling from the supreme court. does this even give some of these people cover to say it is means is? >> at this point it does not appear that way. i spent the day talking to a number of republicans about whether they even accept monday's vote in which the electoral college votes to essentially declare that joe biden here is the winner. something clear for weeks. i asked whether or not the president should concede at that point or consider joe biden president-elect. they will not say. because he continued to move forward with this fruitless fight and they don't want to anger the president. joanie erns of iowa that won her race and wouldn't say if the president should concede. neither with marco rubio. the senate judiciary committee and close ally of this

president. and when i had a chance to ask mitch mcconnell the senate republican leader who in two weeks referred to the new administration coming in whether he it's considers biden president-elect now or on monday he side stepped the question. >>. >> the new administration coming in, are you willing to acknowledge that joe biden is the president-elect? will do you so on monday? >> this is become a weekly ritual. the electoral college is going to meet on the 14th. and cast a vote. we're going to have a swearing in of the next president. on the 20th of january. why don't we concentrate on what we have to do the next two weeks? >> so the big question is what will happen come monday when that vote occurs, when joe biden moves over to 270 electoral votes, something that's been, of

course, clear here. will they at that point break with this president? as you know, the president is not showing any signs of dropping this fight even though he has virtually no chance of succeeding and some house conservatives are pushing him to take this to the house floor in january 6th when the joint session of congress essentially counts those votes from each state. some urging to actually have a debate and open a fight over the electoral results that are coming from the states. what will leaders like mitch mcconnell do if the president refuses to concede? they're not saying yet even though all see the writing on the wall privately and publicly a different story. thank you very much. >> next, president-elect joe biden with a plan to open the nation's schools amid the pandemic. >> my team will work to see that a majority of our schools can be open by the end of my first 100 days. >> plus, trump lashing out at a republican lieutenant governor

calling him a republican in name only and "too dumb or corrupt to recognize massive evidence of fraud." georgia lieutenant governor jeff duncan responds. and a lawmaker calls out giuliani's voter claims and now she is receiving death threats like this one. >> you need to be run out of office and hung from a.

tonchts nigh tonight, biden and trump holding starkly different covid-19 messages. >> we need your help. wear masks for just 100 days. this team this team will help get the latest at the last 100 million covid-19 vaccines, at least 100 million covid-19 vaccine shots into the arms of the american people. we'll look to have the most schools open that we can possibly in 100 days. we're in a very dark winter. things may well get worse before they get better. >> the president had a vaccine signing and for him there were no warnings like that.

it was all about declaring victory today. >> we're here to discuss a monumental national achievement. nobody thought this was possible. nobody thought it was even remotely possible to do what we've done in nine months. something not even thinkable. and we took a lot of heat when we said this is our goal. >> you got to point there. did he push vaccines and while every company in every great scientific mind on this planet was moving at warp speed, no matter what, president trump was vocal. he pushed and he deserves credit for. that but here's the thing. if president-elect president trump wants to own the good, then he has to own the bad. and the bad is a pandemic that is still out of control. according to a memo from the president's own task force tonight, the administration's current vaccination plans won't, "substantially reduce virus spread, hospitalizationors fatalities until the 100 million

americans with covid-19 can be fully immunized which will take into late spring." as 2,000 americans die today, yesterday, and will sadly tomorrow. the death toll rising toward 300,000 americans and get trump and his team won't push things like masks which even doctors behind the vaccine say are more effective than a vaccine. so president trum weaponp with left can save lives now. out front now, three of the nation's experts on this pandemic. thank you all for joining us. professor, let me start with you. late spring. it may be realistic. it is later than many regular people are banking on. and, you know, many people are thinking, look, get through the holidays and january. things will be a lot better.

this is not that time line. >> that's correct. it's not. and it's a very realistic time line. it takes a while for the vaccines to get rolled out. it takes a while for them to get administers and tad a while to take infect. in the meantime, there is a light at the end of the tunnel that is a very long tunnel and very dark, especially at the beginning in the next few months. we can expect to see increasing numbers of infections and increasing deaths until and -- until we do something to stop it which is what you recommended. masks, social distancing. i would like to see a lot more tests being able to be done at home. there are tests that are developed. they could be used and i would like to see more testing added to that mix so people know they're infected and thou protect those around them. >> doctor, in september you told me 80% of the deaths from

coronavirus could have been prevent philadelphia we did basic health measures that other countries did that include masks. yet even now president trump does not back the basics. at aa rally in georgia, he dropped the pretense of handing out masks to people behind him. now biden said he's going to ask americans to wear masks for 100 days. he doesn't take office for 43 days. trump can do something about it. and by not doing something about it now before this vaccine is fully out there, he is still doing harm. >> we have a president who refuses to do pretty much anything to help save lives of the american people. beg again, i think he deserves credit and the administration deserves credit for the vaccine. they did some very good work there. ultimately, the vaccine is the

product of scientists in america and around the world. but the administration helped. but this, you don't fight a pandemic with one tool. you use all the tools in front of you. the president refused to use any other tool beyond the vaccine and just mind boggling in this very late stage. >> certainly has. and you made the point, they have all said masks are more effective than vaccines. at least as effective as a vaccine, right? we can save lives with this now. and president-elect biden said in addition to universal mask wearing, he wants kids back in schools. trump does too. >> it should be a national priority to get our kids back into school and keep them in school. if congress provides the funding we need to protect students, educators and staff, if states and cities put strong public health measures in place that we

all follow, then my team will work to see that a majority of our schools can be open by the end of my first 100 days. >> it has to be safe to do. that i think in order to get the majority of schools open in the united states, we're going to have to do a lot of work with our infrastructure, particularly our testing infrastructure. in order for schools to open safely, we have to test staff and children frequently. and we have the ability to do that with rapid, you know, point of care testing and that's going to require intense investment by this administration to get that up and running. they might also require bars and schools closing to prioritize the institution wezs we want to

open. >> prioritize the future and they need the system to help those impacted by closures. >> you know, obviously she's worked with rudy giuliani who also has the virus and white house confirms that she was at a holiday party and a lot of people not masking up. and there appears to be no social distancing at these white house parties and, you know, masks are not really there either. are you concerned about this as another outbreak? >> yes, i am and for two reasons. one, is of course, the concern that people are getting infected. we don't want them to get sick and die. and so we hope that they recover. another concern is the constant misinformation that this kind of behavior sets, right? if they're doing it at the white

house, the message to the american people is it's no big deal to do these kind of things. i think most americans need to know they're not going to get the kind of vip care that the administration and its senior leadership have. and we're seeing that across the country. that part is the most frustrating part. the signal and the modeling it does for what americans should be doing at this moment. >> very small gatherings are a big part of the spread right now. people look at the white house, you can have a big party, surely the small family gathering is fine. but that's exactly what the spread is happening. people are dying. doctor, biden said he has not seen a clear plan to get the vaccine into people's arms and an official now confirming to krn th cnn that they passed to buy more doses of pfizer's coronavirus vaccine which is the first one out of the gate and fuser may not be able to fulfill more u.s. orders until june. how do you think this happened?

>> the administration did something that i think is smart. they invested in six or seven vaccines. and they have purchased about the option to buy about 800 million doses. so you're right. they only purchased 100 million doses of the pfizer vak seccine passed on 100 million of the moderna vaccine. and it is approaching fda review and then the vaccine and the smith kline vaccine. i'm not worried about the ability to get vaccines and to the public. it will take a while. we'll have several vaccines in the spring. i don't want the public to think we're going to run out of vaccines. we'll have the vaccines come spring time. >> how does a regular american

to know which vaccine to get? they're different. there are different technologies. but by the time you're making a decision in the spring, you're not going to have a lot of the -- which really do what well. we haven't had enough time. >> we're going to have -- we have some data already. and to me, from what i've seen, the most serious side effects and potential side effects come from the virus vectors. i would say if i had a choice, i would take one that is that. is that is a controversial statement. i that i is based on the thaefdz so far exists. >> and which ones are those? >> but, you know, people have said, in fact, there won't be a choice. if you're state you'll get this vaccine, at least in the beginning. that's all there is going to be. we're not going to give you a choice. the other staut you may get another vaccine. the my advice is to take what is available. >> of course, there is a lot of uncertainty in this country.

among many people. they're not sure about this one. last month you testified before the senate homeland security committee. you were tacked by the republican chairman by saying hydroxychloroquine is not a cure. that same committee held a hearing on the same issue. they invited a doctor and she's a vaccine skeptic. broadly a vaccine skeptic. she brought your name up. here's what she said. >> more than 65 years of experience and hundreds of millions of patients demonstrated safety hydroxychloroquine is safer than most over-the-counter drugs however, organized medicine and academic physicians have stated that the evidence is insufficiently scientific. doesn't meet the gold standards of the randomized control trial. the fact is that most of the guidelines that we use for most

diseases have relied on lower orders of evidence necessarily. and studies with appropriately analyzed data give results identical to rcts. >> i want to give you awe chance to respond, doctor. pt. >> there are a couple things. very quickly, when we don't have much evident, we go for whatever evidence we have. that is not what is happening with hydroxychloroquine. we have done high quality studies. it doesn't work. so i -- so this is really misinformation, trying to confuse the american people. it is not part of the solution right now. we know what it is and i wish he would focus on mask wearing and social distancing and getting to vaccines. >> thank you very much. next, president trump stepping up attacks on georgia's republican lieutenant governor calling him too dumb for corrupt all because he won't support trump's claims of election

fraud. lieutenant governor jeff duncan is my guest. and florida police with guns drawn in the home of a covid-19 data scientists that accused the state of a cover-up. what is going on?

managing type 2 diabetes? you're on it. exercising often and eating healthy? yup, on it there too. you may think you're doing all you can to manage type 2 diabetes and heart disease... ...but could your medication do more to lower your heart risk? jardiance can reduce the risk of cardiovascular death for adults who also have known heart disease. so, it could help save your life from a heart attack or stroke. and it lowers a1c. jardiance can cause serious side effects including dehydration, genital yeast or urinary tract infections, and sudden kidney problems. ketoacidosis is a serious side effect that may be fatal. a rare, but life-threatening bacterial infection in the skin of the perineum could occur. stop taking jardiance and call your doctor right away if you have symptoms of this bacterial infection, ketoacidosis, or an allergic reaction and don't take it if you're on dialysis or have severe kidney problems. taking jardiance with a sulfonylurea

president trump ratcheting up asults that the election was rigged. jeff duncan wants replaced. georgia lieutenant governor jeff duncan georgia is a rhino, never trumper who got himself elected as lg by lieutenant governor by falsely claiming to be pro trump. he should be replaced. out front now, well, the republican lieutenant governor jeff duncan. lieutenant governor, it's been a long time since high school yet here you are being attacked this way. one two of tweets from the president in a space of the last 24 hours. what do you say to that? >> well, glad to be with you, erin. thanks for the opportunity.

i actually replied this morning. i got a good night's sleep and thanked him for four great years of leadership for this country and highly encouraged him to get the senator elected. that's what we have to do. i'm not going to reply negatively. i was raised better than that and more importantly, raising three boys right now and i want them to watch dad react the way that i'm telling them to react. >> i don't want to bring up your family although i know you have increased security around yourself and family. you are referred to many republicans saying the real threats that people received. you said there are people in your inner circumstance who will have been persuaded by misinformation. you gave me that example. you easily debunk it. did you ever think it would come

to this? >> no, especially not. but, you know, it is alarming to see the mountains of misinformation that continue to fly in from folks you know and trust. my job is to make sure that governor kemp and state attorney general chris karr fair, legal action. that's our job. that's what we're doing. that's what we worked hard for. >> that's what you did repeatedly. you know, your election chief said this is the most secure election you had. there is a paper trail in every ballot cast. in that con e it, the supreme court tonight, lieutenant governor, denied a request by pennsylvania republicans and that request was to block the state's election results from being certified. it's a terse one line statement. comes from the entire court. they deliver on the fatal blow effort tos to invalidate biden's

win. do you think this will require what you're seeing out there? people that just believe some of this made up stuff? >> i think the supreme court ruling today was another data point that continues to drive home the narrative that it's time to move on. the guy i work ford did not win. it's time for us as a country and as a party to move on. short term we got the senate races that we talked about before that are very important to me as a republican. i'm very, very worried this affects our brand of conservatism. the republican party. we got good days in front of us. we need to look for opportunities to improve. one of the big areas that we're going to learn to improve on is we need to communicate better.

280 characters on twitter are not enough to communicate. i want to make sure they recognize our conservative leadership. >> so president came to your state last weekend, right? he said all of these things. about you and the things about the election. and now he's coming back. he says he's going to come back. he's going to campaign for the senatorial candidates in your party. but he's going to say the same things he said on saturday. do you welcome him if that's what he does? >> any time a sitting president comes and campaigns for two senators, i think that is a great asset. certainly he has got a huge following and the base loves president trump and certainly, like i said, his conservative policies are spot on. i hope he doesn't go on the misinformation route. i don't think it will help senator purdue. and any sense -- there is no possible way that helps them win

re-election. >> i appreciate your time as always, lieutenant governor. thank you. >> thanks, erin. >> all right. next, a black lawmaker, the target of racist death threats after saying this about rudy giuliani seeing the same lies the president said. >> but you're allowing people to come in here and lie and i know they're lying. >> she is my guest. and faced with guns drawn, former coronavirus data scientists in florida previously accused the governor there of a cover-up. new details on that very strange story tonight. ♪ oh, oh, oh, ozempic®! ♪ (announcer) once-weekly ozempic® is helping many people with type 2 diabetes like emily lower their blood sugar. a majority of adults who took ozempic® reached an a1c under 7 and maintained it.

tonight why did police raid the home of a data scientists who previously accused top state officials of covering up pandemic. it comes as the lieutenant governor faces new accusations

of withholding crucial coronavirus information from the public. it's an unbelievably strange story. so drew griffin is out front to get to the bottom of it. >> they have guns out. they have a gun out. >> they came with guns drawn, a camera in the hallway showing the moment the florida department of law enforcement officers raided rebecca jones' tallahassee home. >> police, come down now. >> all this over an unauthorized text message allegedly sent through an internal system at the florida department of health. >> he just pointed a gun at my children. >> the officers say jones refused to open the door for 20 minutes. she says she was getting dressed. they did not make an arrest but seized computers and phones and thumb drives that jones says contained evidence of corruption at the state level. >> on my phone is every communication i've ever had with someone who works at the state who has come to me in confidence and told me things that could get them fired. >> a search warrant affidavit

obtained by cnn says someone accessed the state emergency planning system and sent a group text to more than 1700 recipients urging state workers to speak out before it's too late, the system uses an app called ready op and everyone in the department just uses the same user name and pass word yet according to the warrant, investigators traced the ip address of the message to jones' house. >> did you send that text on that system? >> no. i haven't had any 5:00 tes at doh for over six months. i'm not a hacker. >> jones claims the raid, the investigation is nothing more than governor desantos using police to shut her up. >> this is just a very thin attempt for him to intimidate scientists and get back at me while trying to get to my sources. >> a spokesman for the governor insists the governor's office had no involvement, no knowledge, no nothing of this investigation. jones who helped build florida's online coronavirus data

dashboard was fired in may in what she argued was retaliation for her refusal to fudge the numbers and minimize the scale of the outbreak. state officials say she was fired back in may for insubordination and making changes to the state's covid-19 dashboard without input or approval or to governor ron desantos at the time said this. >> she was putting data on the portal which the scientists didn't believe was valid data. >> jones filed a whistle-blower complaint and launched her own online dashboard of florida coronavirus data. website she says was operated from one of computers officers seized monday. >> desantos needs to worry less about what i'm writing about and more about the people sick and dying in his state. and doing this to me will not stop me from reporting the data. ever. >> florida just reached a grim milestone of more than a million total coronavirus cases, a far cry from the governor's boasting

in may. >> we succeeded. i think people just don't want to recognize it. >> desantos is widely criticized for handling of the virus and downplaying the numbers. he failed to hold a press conference for weeks instead doing prerecorded videos that ignored the rising cases. he signed an order limiting enforcement of mask mandates across the state and opening bars and restaurants at 100% capacity and just like president trump, says anyone who criticizes him is playing politics. >> they have an agenda. very partisan. it was an election year and the fact that florida is a key swing state had a lot to do with it. >> so this is an amazing story. when i first saw it, like many, right, i said what is this? what happened here? so, you know, it is shocking to see the videos, police with guns drawn. have they said anything? are they defending what they did? >> they are defending their actions, erin. basically blaming it on jones for escalating the situation by

not opening up that door promptly. but state elected officials, democrats in florida certainly are not buying. this charlie chris, the congressman is one of them. he wants an investigation. he says this was way over the top. and a lawyer who was appointed by ron desantos through a judicial nominating committee quit this afternoon. he resigned in protest over this and over desantos' handling of the coronavirus. so there is some >> a lawmaker calls out rudy giuliani's lies and she's now receiving death threats. she's speaking out. next. you're clearly someone who takes care of yourself. so why wait to screen for colon cancer?

it is really only -- >> it may not be done under the state but you are allowing people to come in here and lie. >> representative, you are out of order, i have indulged you but you are out of order. >> those things were lies. representative johnson is with me now. representative johnson, i want to on the back hearing, those horrible voice mails. i can't imagine you had to listen to those awful upsetting trash. did you ever think it would come to this? >> it was shocking but it was not surprising. and i say that only because we are living in a time where although we are in the 2020, it reminds me of the early '50s

and '60s. this situation reminds me of domestic violence. it remiends me of how women are abused and talked down on and demeaned and many women don't respond to it. they're too afraid and letting all women who know right now, trust and believe. this is a form of domestic violence and we should not put up with it. we are talking about people who are saying racist attacks and nasty names and just unconsci s unconsciousabunconsciou unconscionable things that are perpetrated on people of color, specifically black people. i am in the state of michigan, i am a detroiter, we have people

cowards. they speak behind the computer or they'll call me and if i happen to pick upmost of them will hang up. so, to ask me if i am afraid, i thank you for the question, i appreciate that. for all the well-weubishers, i fine. god has another plan for all of this country. i am hoping that this will be a time that racism will be addressed. >> you are not afraid and i appreciate that. i hope that many are inspired in the courage of speaking out. representative so much for your time. thanks all of you for yours. anderson starts now. good evening with a single sentence today, the supreme court raised any doubts of who is the next president of the
