harris: special couple of hours for you sunday, president trump and his team now deciding -- rather they're -- i'm going to wait a moment for the team to catch up. president trump and his team now deciding that they are going to press ahead with their lawsuits and take a look at what can happen going forward. we will go to first reporter and i apologize right off the top we are having difficulties here. david spunt as trump is suing the president in key states but will commit to a peaceful transfer of power if no path is made to victory and outside the

white house, david. david: hi, harris, good afternoon. appears president trump is not ready to accept defeat. fox news through white house sources has learned that he will commit to a peaceful transition of power if battles do not pan out. several sources are saying that he's hoping battles will pan out and hanging hope on court battles. i want to show you a look in philadelphia, live look, poll watching in philadelphia. look at this, remarkable, 24 hours ago so many more people there counting some of those ballots, right now there's maybe two part-time -- people right now. the president and legal team are pushing forward in those states. one is pennsylvania, that's a big one where the president's

former mayor rudy giuliani. >> as a friend of mine says i don't believe in conspiracies but i don't believe in coincidences. kind of funny that all republicans were rejected here and all republicans were rejected in pittsburgh and amounts to about fee, -- gee, 700,000 votes that president trump was ahead that disappears. david: giuliani gave several allegations, they were vague, he said those will come out in court filings, he plans to file suit tomorrow and as far as 700,000 is concerned, harris, you have been speaking with people all over the past week who say that a lot of those votes didn't necessarily go away from president trump but more votes were counted in favor of joe biden. that's why so many people were working around clock to count some of those mail-in ballots. meanwhile, outside of the white house yesterday the moment that the race was called for now

president elect biden, people cheered for hours, for at least 12 hours. the president, president trump spent his day golfing but clearly this is still on his mind. he tweeted yesterday that he won the election by a lot, quote, by a lot. this was just one of a handful of tweets you can see that was flagged by twitter, harris, the president right now golfing at his club in northern virginia. again, we are told if the battles in courts do not pan out he will commit to a peaceful transition but we don't know what's going on in his mind as far as accepting any kind of defeat. it appears he's not going to, harris. harris: we do know that the attorneys on behalf of the campaign and the president are working hard on his behalf as well. david spunt, thank you very much, thanks for rolling with technical difficulty. we figured it out. president trump vowed to pursue

legal action contesting biden's win in pennsylvania. senior correspondent and anchor eric sean has now more from philly. eric. eric: hi, harris, the election may be over but they are still counting the votes tat philadelphia convention center where i am in center city, philadelphia. you know, election officials here are defending the credibility and integrity of the election process. but as you heard the trump campaign, well, it is slamming the rules here in the keystone state. they say that the republican watchers here at the convention center were not given proper access to see the voting but under the guidelines that the state has set they were as well as the democratic vote watchers who have been here along side the republican watchers. let's go back and look inside the big counting room where the final vote counting is continuing at the moment as they look at provisional ballots. the canvassers are doing what they are supposed to do, just watch, like you're doing right

now. canvassers are not allowed to examine, handle or raise any objections about any vote, the guidelines say they are simply here to observe. pennsylvania state law says watchers, quote, may not challenge an absentee or mail-in ballot, may not engage attempt to intimidate or interfere with canvass and challenges to mail- in based on signature analysis are not permitted at any time. the president's lawyer giuliani says those rules could leave open opportunity for potential fraud. >> officials, democrat officials in a city that's been democrat for 60 years and has history of voter fraud, documented history of voter fraud, instead of going to a high degree of care to allow inspections of the mail-in ballots, there was no inspection of a single mail-in ballot.

eric: philadelphia district attorney's office has established a special election task force to look into any allegations of fraud or interference. the da's office tells us this morning that they have received 68 complaints and says that they've resolved 67 of those complaints, the one outstanding the da's says involves apparent trump supporter and the republican leader and majority leader calling for audit of election results in the state as former major rudy giuliani plans to go to federal court tomorrow to press what he says are specific examples of potential voter fraud here in the state and the election. back to you in new york. harris. harris: eric, thank you very much. i want to bring trey gowdy, doesn't hurt to ask, it's

excellent. former prosecutor, put all that together, the man to answer my questions, good to see you on this fine sunday. trey, i want to start where you think the biggest or, i guess, the most powerful legal cases are on behalf of the president and the trump campaign at this point? trey: pennsylvania, that's the clear-cut legal issue. some of the allegations, harris are fact dependent. this is a clear-cut legal question. the pennsylvania legislature did not allow for ballots to be received after a certain deadline on election day. the pennsylvania supreme court not the legislature, the supreme court said you can accept them for 3 days. the president's position and the position of others is -- the supreme court doesn't get to make that decision. that's a clear-cut legal issue. also in nevada it should not be tough to figure out whether or not people who are dead voted and it should not be tough to figure out whether people who moved away from that county cast

a ballot in that county. those to me are the clearest cut legal issues. harris: you've campaigned and you've been in your -- in politics for so long i'm sure that you've seen things that were contested before and timing is everything right now. so i'm wondering how long do you think the process takes to find out the answers to some of these things in court? i know what we saw with bush-gore but every situation is so different. trey: you mentioned court, every conviction i ever got over 20 years was reviewed. some of the reviews are still going on 20 years later. we don't want that in elections. yeah, really. we need to know by the time the electoral college meets, but harris, there are a couple of things i really, really want your viewers to appropriate. number 1, this is not the last election, there's another one coming up in january and then we will have another presidential one in 4 years so whether it's a mistake or fraud or an innocent

miscalculation, i mean, don't we want to get it right? what is the harm in making sure that we get it right and have an election system that we all have confidence in because as long as we are a democracy, we are going to have another election at some point. harris: what you hope to, i heard you say this before, you don't want this hyperengaged electorate. look at the numbers north of 70 million per candidate now for people voting for the person they believed in but also in down ballot races in congress and in the senate. people engaged and had an opinion and had a true view of what they wanted. you don't want to lose that from the voting public. it's what makes us so special as americans. it's the very heart of our democracy voting. i want to get to this, senator send say graham says he's launching a judiciary committee investigation into voting irregularities, let's watch that and we will get a response. >> the fbi is investigating along with the postal inspector

and our committee will be talking to this gentleman. i don't know where that goes, but do i know that we have evidence of 6 people in pennsylvania registering after they died and voting after they died and we haven't looked at the entire system. so to my republican colleagues out there, we have to fight back or we will accept our fate. harris: trey. trey: i was with lindsay for 5 hours yesterday. harris: wow. trey: that gives you a hint of what we were doing, 5 hours. he's also passionate about having a system that we respect. so when somebody submits an affidavit which is a sworn statement under penalty of perjury, he takes it seriously. so we have to get this election right but there's another one coming up in georgia in 2 months, so if there are -- not just fraud, fraud is easy, how about an innocent mistake, how

about a miscalculation? we don't want any errors in our election. of course, fraud is at the top of the we don't want list, but i don't even want innocent mistakes and if that means taking a hard look at it for a couple of weeks, letting it play out with the facts and with the neutral judge, what's the harm in doing that? harris: well, we may find out, you know, things in the other states that you'll see how the numbers do shake out and all worth waiting for as you said for the next time. you know, so that people can make good decisions based on the information that they can trust and that they know. a quick last question for you, something that i've been wondering because we are reporting today that the president will want to see all of the legalities go through and at the end of the process if he doesn't prevail a peaceful transition, con decision at that point. what is -- how does the law see that? if somebody is found out after

you conceded, what happens? trey: concession is something that the media and the public places stock in but legally i think it's inconsequential. to my knowledge stacy abrams never conceded and i'm pretty sure brian kemp is the governor. in terms of legal consequence, there's no required -- i've run, what, 7 races and lots of races, the other side never called me and never conceded but yet i still took office. you know, we may expect it but legally i don't think it's required. harris: yeah, that's an important question as we go forward because you do see the pressure, right, and it's being reported and you see it in some members of the mainstream media where there is the pressure to do this one thing and i just wondered how if it all it would impact legality and you're saying, no, it operates separate from that emotion. trey gowdy, thank you, i assume that you will spend 5 hours with

another friend. trey: not lindsay. [laughter] harris: good to see you. the senate balance of power is hinging on two runoff races in georgia. in fact, you heard trey loosely talk about what's coming up in january and how important the races are and that we get whatever is going on right now with we are -- we are going and the races will determine the direction of america and joe biden could face divided government looking to limit his agenda like raising taxes and so on. ♪ >> mitch mcconnell will have to decide whether he wants to help move this country forward and influence progress or whether he wants to stop progress. if he choses to do that i'm fearful that the republican

party will pay a price politically but american people will pay political price because we need action this is us talkt investing, managing risk, and all the ways schwab can help me invest. this is andy reminding me how i can keep my investing costs low and that there's no fee to work with him. here's me learning about schwab's satisfaction guarantee. accountability, i like it. so, yeah. andy and i made a good plan. find your own andy at schwab. a modern approach to wealth management.

>> so it makes a difference who wins two seats in georgia. the democrats were to to win two seats, chuck schumer would be

the majority leader and significance of that job as we've discussed before is the majority leader gets to decide what the agenda is, what you're going to do, what you're not going to do. harris: obviously seeing senate majority leader mitch mcconnell as the balance of power hinges on two georgia races both heading to a runoff election in january. and spending on those races, we are talking big money, easily could go over $200 million. steve harrigan live for us in atlanta, steve, the latest. steve: harris, really no shortage of politicians today making extreme statements about just how important the two senate runoff races in georgia are. chuck schumer, the minority leader in the senate could potentially become minority leader in the senate says they are incredibly important, they could change the country and the world. here is schumer. >> we take georgia and then we take the world.

now we take georgia and we change america. steve: some republicans warn that republicans need to win both of these runoff races in georgia to save the country from complete destruction. here is ted cruz. >> if you don't want to go over the edge to the socialist georgia is the big enchilada. i will be there and everyone who wants to see semblance of calm and reason and sanity, georgia is the battle where that will be determined. steve: in both of the races no candidates got 50%, so by georgia law they'll have to be runoffs january 5th before inauguration and possibly if democrats were to win both seats from incumbents there could be tie and broken by the vice

president. in the next 2 months we could see battle for control over the senate in georgia with intensity, money, political advertising all heating up considerably. harris, back to you. harris: steve harrigan, thank you very much. i want to bring in former utah congressman, jason chaffetz and also fox news contributor, jason, great to see you today. let's talk about what's going on with the electorate down in georgia and what you see as a republican. is there a shift, what's happening? jason: this race is about to come up will probably be single most expensive race in the history of the united states with the senate in balance. i have to tell you, it is a conservative state. i think if republicans will just get out and vote the republican ticket, i think a lot of independents do want to see a balance form of government and i think you have 2 -- there's a reason why you have 2 current republican senators in georgia, so and you have a republican

governor in governor kemp. i really do believe that these two senators will prevail but it is going to be nasty, it's going to be dirty and it is going to be expensive. harris: wow. those are all pretty much things that weave seen this election series. i mean, a whole lot of money and everybody, you know, fighting from their side -- from their corner and it has gotten tough. former georgia gubernatorial candidate had this to say how dems will get voters to the polls in the senate runoff elections. here is her take. >> this is going to be the determining factor of whether we have access to health care and access to justice in the united states. those are two issues that will make certain that people turn out. we know this is going to be a hard fight. it's going to be a competitive fight. harris: you said something interesting, jason, you always do about how you get the republican vote out. when you see what they'll do on the other side of the aisle, are

there any calculation that you ? >> they will run senator schumer quote, they will take over the country, change the country and look at ads that have schumer, schumer written all over it because the good people of georgia don't want chuck schumer helping to run the country. i just don't think they are going to do that. they are going to look at what they did with the president with impeachment and all the other things. senator perdue won convincingly, he just didn't get to 50%. he was just barely shy of it. so he already has the lead going into this race, he's been a great performer, you've got two good senators there but the case will be made and the good people of georgia and i hope it's just the people in georgia, we better not see this huge influx of thousands of people suddenly moving to georgia, how they administer this, how they regulate this, how they make sure that the vote is accurate, how they get the ballots to the

people that serve in the united states military and back. those will all be critical factors. harris: so you're talking about what trey gowdy just mentioned and that's the future of voting in the nation and how we are get ting a good peel of the onion. democrats or republicans, particularly in georgia? do we know? jason: in georgia they've had a strong history of having a solid republican delegation. now they've got some strong democrats do right in the atlanta area. there's been some members of people like hank johnson who have been there for a long, long time. you have different pockets. georgia is a big state, have atlanta, it's a big city, boy, you have real conservative pockets. it's more conservative and that's why they got two

republican senators now and a republican governor and i think that bodes well for republicans but they got to win at least one of the races but probably i think they will win both of those races. harris: well, you know, as much as democrats have been talking flipping the senate, you have to give some credit to president trump for helping people out because he did when he was on the stump. 17 events that he did, he constantly saw in arizona with mcsally. i want to get your last thought about that. >> there's a reason why they flipped the senate and tommy tuberville is going to the united states senate, there was no big blue win. you had susan collins win for goodness sake. there was no big blue wave that took over the country. there's not a single republican house member running for reelection, not a single one that lost their election, so, you know, don't tell me there's some big blue wave.

republicans down ballot did exceptionally well. harris: jason chaffetz, i will get the pleasure seeing you again later this hour because you will join the power panel, good to see you, thank you, in a few. joe biden giving his first speech as what he's being called president elect last night saying he will go to work immediately to fight the coronavirus pandemic and, in fact, he's already made an announcement today. a little ahead of schedule but he plans to make it official tomorrow as he makes a plea to unit the country about the very path. >> we have to stop treating our opponents as enemies, they are not our enemies, they are americans

>> folks, i'm a proud democrat. [cheers and applause] >> but i will govern as an

american president, i will work as hard for those who didn't vote for me as those who did. let this grim era of demonization in america begin to end here and now. harris: president elect joe biden addressing the nation last night after pennsylvania was called putting him over the top in the electoral votes and last night's victory speech biden said he will announce a new coronavirus task force tomorrow if cases are surging across america. jacqui heinrich is live for us in wilmington, delaware with more. we know who is going to lead the task force now? jacqui: we have found out information, harris. joe biden began his first day, though, as president elect with typical sunday routine going to church, visiting his son's grave. there was a bit of a crowd,

though, today waiting for him different than most other sundays. he's got no other events scheduled today but we do know his transition team is hard at work, fox news has learned that former surgeon general murphy will head up biden's coronavirus task force on the transition team, murphy has been acting as a public health adviser to biden's campaign and the incoming administration plans to spotlight messaging from public health experts contrasting the posture of the trump white house while also securing supply chains for ppe and other essentials and working on a vaccine. biden is expected to announce the group of scientists and experts taking up this effort tomorrow. addressing the public health crisis will come ahead of cabinet appointments which may stretch across party lines with understanding, confirmations, might have to go to republican controlled senate but today progressives who rally behind biden are making a vocal bid for a role in the administration.

>> we are an integral part of the democratic coalition. i'm not here to say that we are the dominant part but we are an integral part that deserves representation. jacqui: biden sources are reluctant to speak on the record about who is under consideration for these appointments, but biden has said his administration will look like all of america and work for all america. in his remarks last night, biden called for healing and also a new chapter. >> refusal of democrats and republicans to cooperate with one another is not some mysterious force beyond our control, it's a decision, a choice we make and if we could decide not to cooperate then we can decide to cooperate and i believe that this is part of a mandate given to us from the american people. jacqui: mandate that the

transition team is working on, four big priorities, coronavirus, the economy, racial justice and climate change, harris. harris: jacqui, thank you very much, new yorkers packed the cities streets and dancing celebrating joe biden's victory. alex hogan live in new york city, alex. alex: harris, good afternoon. well, we saw thousands of people go to times square celebrating and we also did see some protests but here in new york mostly people gathering there to celebrate. it looks a little bit more like a parade or new year's eve as, again, thousands of people made their way to the cross roads of the world. social distancing clearly not really an option there, however, people did wear their masks and throughout the day people gathered there to honk, sing, dance and even take photos to capture the moment.

>> i'm glad to see it in my lifetime. >> we will look forward to seeing, the first black-indian vice president female, so that is -- >> i hope that the message is that we've got -- diversity make us what we are and together we can do anything. alex: cities erupting in celebration from philadelphia, san francisco, dc to atlanta, crowds popping champagne and waving flags, raising flags supporting former vice president joe biden or calling out president trump and the administration at the same time trump supporters protesting saying it's not over yet. las vegas, phoenix, atlanta, some of the cities where crowds gathered chanting claims of voter fraud vowing to standby the president. so a very big divided country in

these celebrations and protests but as we heard joe biden speak last night saying that he understands the disappointment of 70 million voters who voted for president trump but asking them, harris, to give each other a chance, back to you. harris: no doubt, the questions and criticism coming today. joe biden might have to talk about as well about all of the lack of social distancing as people have piled into the streets in celebration. alex, thank you very much. we have now learned some really sad news. jeopardy host alex trabek has died today. he was battling pancreatic cancer, the television icon was 80 year's old. long-time show jeopardy, jeopardy is saddened to share that alex trabek died peacefully with family and friends. thank you, alex, we will have

for a lifetime. harris: joe biden is taking a victory lap, that happened last night after the race was called in pennsylvania. now there is a battle brewing between far left and moderates over who joe biden should choose for his cabinet. that's right, within his own party they're fighting along with his priorities. squad member congressman ilhan omar is pushing for the most progressive agenda in u.s. history. >> in this election was that we had one job, that one job was to get rid of trump and to give ourselves the opportunity and the privilege to lobby the new information, if our big tent democratic party wants to govern on behalf of all americans, we should have a seat at the table.

harris: i want to bring in house minority whip james clyburn, democrat from south carolina, i will just say this right off the top of the hour, congressman, you were credited so much with not just joe biden's victory but also just being the nominee because you delivered the black vote in south carolina. i want to talk with you in a moment about that but let's start here. the conflict that's being reported on within your democratic party. who decides the priorities for democrats, is it the far left and alexandria ocasio-cortez, ilhan omar or others or is it joe biden? >> it is joe biden. thank you so much for having me. joe biden is the president elect. he ran a campaign to the american people and what to expect from a biden administration and now he's going put together a staff, a cabinet that will reflect what

he wants his administration to be about. he's not going to listen to me and i'm not going to offer him any suggestions unless he asks for them. he is the one that's been campaigning all over the country for the last several years. he's been vice president for 8 years and in the senate for more than 40 years, so he knows this country very well. i know him very well and i would trust his judgment. harris: you know, i have to press and ask because the congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez has been on camera talking about how she and others will push joe biden. i almost hear you talking directly to them when you say wait to be asked, am i wrong about that? >> yes, you are. i'm not telling anybody to do anything. i try to lead by precept and example and so anything you hear

me say, i think you are going to see me act that way. back when we were trying to get a nominee, a lot of people in the media kept pressing me on what i thought or did not think. i resisted that and i will continue to resist that. harris: interesting. >> you put a candidate out there and he or she is successful and then in this instance he and she have been successful, let them put their cabinet together. that's all i'm going to do. harris: you know, you talk about the difference that you will personally will make and you certainly can do that i'm wondering because i know that you have friends across the political aisle. nearly 71 million americans and we are still counting votes said that president trump, it wasn't just their choice, they believed in him and they still want him to prevail legally however that can happen, we don't know. but we are following the story

obviously. what do you say to them, what do you say to them, how do you reach those people because when i hear you saying that biden will not listen to the far left, i know from my own reporting with people that that's a sigh of relief because he's going to be the president, not aoc and some of the others but what's your message to all of those trump supporters? >> to begin with nearly 75 million people voted for joe biden and the last time i checked, 75 million more than 71 million. so i think that joe biden has an obligation to do what he said he was going to do and that is run as a proud democrat, but govern as a proud american. and that's what he's going to do. now, you know, even within families you will have disagreements on how best to approach anyone question. so i look at our caucus as a

family. my congressional district is different from the congressional district next to me. i share 6 counties with joe cunningham. he just lost his election -- reelection because people felt that they wanted a change. i just won my reelection with better than 65% of the vote. so what's the difference? the difference are our constituents. so i need to reflect my constituents, he needs to reflect his. in the title of the program, you were giving credit for delivering joe biden's victory, no. i -- >> markina: we harris: we are reporting that you get that credit. i hear all of that and i understand it but we are if such a tender point in our country, i thought that there might have been a thank you to the 71 million voters who engaged at

the rate that they did. it is impressive no matter which man won the presidency. we are still counting votes. it looks like about that much, if not a little bit more. what do you think needs to be done under a biden presidency to reach out to black voters and you know them so well because you delivered so many for the president elect. >> i reflected the brack -- black sentiment. i didn't deliver anybody. what i reflect in my endorsement are with people that i represent. i told everybody mrs. jones sitting on the front pew of the church is john baptist church in richmond county, south carolina, he's the one who pressed upon me that the community wanted to hear from me.

i took her at her word. i didn't deliver anybody. i expressed what was thought in the black community and that's the way they voted. so i don't look upon this as being a democrats versus republicans or the 71 versus the 75 million. i see this as the reflection of the united states of america who want to pursuit of a more perfect union as a person that you can look at and know that is not always given credit to. certainly given to my parents. what i'm trying to do is make sure that we pursue perfection in this country, get back on the road to respect everybody, be respective of color, gender and whether or not they came to this country 10 years ago or 10 or

two centuries ago. that's what this country is all about and that's what i'm trying to work on. i want to lead this country better for my children and grandchildren than it was for my parents and grandparents. harris: congressman james clay burn, thank you. >> thank you. harris: as we have been reporting in the last few minutes and we are getting more information in, i want to talk about life of alex trebek, he has left us on this sunday. iconic television host of jeopardy. what a loss. he will be missed. m, backed by our 100-day guarantee!! visionworks. see the difference.

watch what he says. >> there's a lot of shenanigans going on here. if i were president trump, i would take all this to court. mail-in balloting is a nightmare for us. the post office is now the new election center. it's the wild, wild west when it comes to mail-in balloting. >> it's important for the cause of democracy and freedom that we don't allege fraud and theft and so forth unless there's very clear evidence of that. and at this stage, that evidence hasn't been produced. harris: meanwhile, sources are telling fox news how the president may respond if these challenges do not go his way. david spunt is live outside the white house. he joined us last hour, and you have new information, david. >> reporter: harris, good afternoon. based upon the past 24 hours, it does a annot appear president trump -- appear president trump ready to concede. however, john roberts is reporting that should these legal battles in different courts around the country turn up dry, the president would be willing to commit to a peaceful

transition of power. of course, that is if, there is a bug if there. there are several legal issues. president trump right now is golfing at his club in northern virginia, but he sent out a flurry of tweets yesterday and today. several of them actually flagged by twitter, flagged for misleading information. now, a few months ago when this president received that first twitter flag, it was big news, harris. but over the past few weeks, the social media giant regularly has flagged the president's tweets. now, the trump team will file a lawsuit tomorrow in pennsylvania. that is a place where the president's legal team -- and you see voting going on in philadelphia right there -- that's where the president's legal team says they have seen instances of fraud. but the allegations are vague. >> well, i think it is appropriate for the president to make sure that the vote count has been done properly, to carry out recounts where where it's a very close contest.

if there are any you are e regularities alleged, to follow every legal option he has. that's what you'd expect of a president. at the same time, i think it's important to choose one's words carefully because the eyes of our children are upon us. >> reporter: we're hearing from a lot of leaders around the world, harris, specifically one of them benjamin netanyahu. he is a personal friend of president trump, has been for many years, but he also says he has a great relationship with president-elect joe biden. he gave well wishes to him and vice president-elect kamala harris. it's going to be interesting over the next few months to see what happens because just as you walk out of the front door of the white house, you can see the inauguration viewing stand where the vice president-elect and his family will be standing on january 20th. you also wonder about the christmas tree lighting, the hanukkah menorah lighting, so many events that president trump has to be involved in over the next few months. harris? harris: we only have one

president at a time, and he is still the president of the united states, president trump, as you are pointing out. with that voting still going on in pennsylvania, i think you meant ballot counting. this is nevada, and this is joe gloria. we see him every day at about this time with an update on the count in clark county, home to las vegas. let's tune in. >> those people who have voted for early voting, election day and the mail up to them on monday. so on monday, once they get that, they'll be able to take the records or from all 16 other counties in nevada and begin to prepare the report that we need to see so that we'll have the ability to get those ballots counted and into the system. hopefully by sometime on wednesday. we're still working on cures, obviously. this is those group of ballots that would be outside of the numbers that i'm reporting. we'll continue to put two reports out on a daily basis. this afternoon there'll be

another report. no mail today. sunday's not a postage day, and the staff will be working to continue helping voters at the 702-455-6552 line for anybody that needs to cure their ballot. and that, that deadline will be this thursday, the 12th. and with that, i'll take any questions that you might have this morning. >> thank you again for doing this, mr. gloria. the nevada gop has come out with more allegations now alleging that certain ballots are not having signatures verified here in this office and are also alleging that some ballots are being predated. i was wondering if you could just respond to those allegations, what you're seeing. >> just to clarify what you said, did you say predated? >> yes, sir. >> i'm not certain what that means, but i can tell you that

every ballot that comes through this office does have the signature checked. as a result of a.b. 4, it's important that the general public understand that we have a cure process now that's defined in the law. and so there's no course for me to go outside of that the cure responsibility. if somebody cures their ballot, we are obligated to count that ballot. so i don't have all the details on exactly what the claims are, but i'm sure that we have a good explanation for anything that they put forth. >> just to clarify predating, the accusation is that ballots were postmarked after election day and then manipulated to change the dates. just clarifying that. >> that, that's simply untrue. the system is being checked, and it's only the mail that's coming in. there were 25 yesterday. there was more than 25, but those were rejected that didn't have the postmark. so we're following the law in every step that we're supposed to do here in this office.

the mail that came also on wednesday went through the same process. we have to go through and verify that it's postmarked november 3rd. so that work being done, and we're doing it accurately. next question. >> hi, this is a butt related. one of -- a bit related. one of the specific allegations is in the form of a signed affidavit from somebody who said that they were working here processing ballots and said that there were some signatures that this person thought were not matching the envelope but was told to push them through anyway and one instance of somebody who on, i assume the envelope, said that they did not live here, and was told to -- he or she, i don't know -- was told to push that ballot through as well. do you know anything about that? how would those concerns be handled by somebody who was working here who came up with

these problems? >> okay. those are two situations that can be with very clearly explained. sometimes voters will put on the envelope that they've moved, but they're still submitting their ballot to be counted. there are several residents here in clark county that live in the area, could have gone for school, could have gone anywhere, and they indicate on the ballot their change of address. so they need to get with us to get that change of address, but they were still eligible to vote in this county. so those ballots were processed to be counted. i believe you said something about the signature match. the people on the counting board don't have access e to the signature match. so that's work that takes place here in this building before it ever gets to the counting board. so i think that explains -- i'm not completely familiar with what exactly the individual is talking about in specific instances, but i believe we have an explanation for anything that he may have seen.

next question. harris: all right. so we have been watching the very latest from clark county, nevada, where every day about this time the voter registrar the, joe gloria, brings us up to speed. not a whole lot of new information about what's going on with their count there which has been criticized for being rather slow in nevada. far less population than you would have in places like pennsylvania. nonetheless, they want to get it right. joe gloria has made that point. meanwhile, lots of questions from the local media that you're hearing now about reports of ballot irregularities, and he says that they will have an answer for everything. the registrar says he's gotten reports of voter fraud; however, the attorney general says they have not seen anied evidence of that. -- any evidence of that. i want to bring in now someone who has had a front row seat to these legal and political standoffs, alex vogel, a lawyer on the bush/cheney team in the 2000 florida count.

alex, you've joined me in the last week or so, it's great to have you on the program on a sunday as we take a special, close look up. what is popping to you now with these legal challenges that you say especially coming out of nevada where there has been that criticism of how slow it's going. >> there's a couple of different things going on here. one has been the lawsuits, including in nevada, to stop the counting which has been pretty quickly rejected. and then the others are allegations either about voters improperly being on the rolls or about specific voter irregularities. the key to watch here is whenever the count is finished, it sounds like sometime midweek, nevada has until, under their law, december 1 to certify. in between the end of that count and that certification process, there is certainly opportunity for the trump campaign or individual voters to raise those issues and for those to be

reviewed. those could result in further legal proceeding, but it's a little early to tell. i think it's very unlikely at this point that any of the efforts to stop the initial count will be successful. harris: you know, i have to question about just sort of extrapolating things out. so if, you know, and i would imagine that there are these problems all the time. we're taking an extra close look now because the numbers are so huge, but the margins were so razor thin between the two presidential candidates when you looked at certain battleground states. but i would imagine these things exist. are they usually ever able to flip something if they're a few thousand votes apart between candidates? is that something you've seen? what would it take? >> generally speaking in either recounts or election challenges, it's pretty unlikely, in my experience, that you see changes in the thousands. it has happened, but it is

exceptionally rare. what is more likely to produce larger numbers of vote swings would be court discussions impacting either -- decisions impacting either time to count or eligible candidates in the voter rolls. but, frankly, it's just too early to see what those look like until we see the specific names and number of ballots potentially affected. harris: you know, i've been saying this since march, we knew that this was coming. i mean, we knew what the election date was years ago -- [laughter] but we certainly knew at the head of, at the start of the pandemic that we potentially would have some struggles along the way with so many people sending things in early, so on and so forth. so we had, like, a really long early vote season before even election day. we knew that that was the potential. why not clean up some of these rolls before? what does the law say about that, or is that a state to state law when you know you have ballots of the deceased and that sort of thing in the mix? how do you clean all that up? who says what about it?

>> it is a state issue, it's a state responsibility to get their voting rolls in order before the election. obviously, one of the unique challenges this time was the last minute shift in procedures and vote by mail. it's clear that some of the states were more prepared than others, and consequently, i think you've seen smoother outcomes in some of those states. and, no, it is, it's not that people didn't see this coming, it's that, frankly, the procedures and the rules were changed much later and much closer to the election than would otherwise be the norm. harris: yeah. we heard president trump talking about that at the time. alex vogel, thank you very much. good to see you today. >> thank you. harris: president-elect team joe biden says he had a clear victory, there are also more than 70 million americans who voted for president trump. remember, i kind of got into it a little bit with representative james clyburn about this. now, one top republican says the

president-elect has a lot of work to do to reach out to those republicans. can joe biden unite the country? governor mike huckabee is standing by to join me next. ♪ this holiday season,

>> the people of this nation have spoken. [cheers and applause] they've delivered us a clear victory, a convincing victory, a victory for we, the people. we've won with the most votes ever cast for a presidential ticket in the history of the nation, 74 million! [cheers and applause] harris: so president-elect joe biden is seeing his victory as a clear mandate and, obviously, as i've been saying this whole hour, 71 million americans voted for his opponent, president trump. democrats in the house lost seats, and the senate will likely remain in republican control. now, you've got those runoff a races that are coming up in georgia in the senate in january. we'll watch for those two. meanwhile, former first lady michelle obama went after trump voters by tweeting this: let's remember that tens of millions of people voted for the status quo even when it meant

supporting lies, hate, chaos and division. we've got a lot of work to do to reach out to these folks in the years ahead and connect with them on what unites us. former arkansas governor and fox news contributor mike huckabee joins me now. governor, why do i feel sad when i hear those wordsesome why dud i feel sad when representative clyburn said, well, joe biden won, and so that's the answer to the question what do you say to trump voters, 71 million of them? >> it's the same thing wered heard eight years ago when barack obama told john mccain and all republicans elections have consequences, and he said we won, john. and basically said leave the room, we're not interested in what you have to say, and they passed obamacare without a single republican vote. this is how they operate. i mean, you can say what they want, but this talk about unity, for four years those of us who have supported the president -- and, by the way, still do -- we've been told we were racist,

we're bigots, we're homophobes, we're a bunch of small town, rural yolkings, that we're uneducated, that we're filthy. we've been called everything imaginable except decent american citizens. and even now the former first a lady weighs in with some very rather inflammatory words, and what i'd say to her is, you know, the 71 million people that voted for donald trump, we don't know yet -- i know everybody says the election is over, but i'm not buying that because when i hear people say it's been called for joe biden. okay, who called it? the media. they don't is have the constitutional authority to do that. let's wait until all the votes have been tabulated and we have a clear picture of what happened, then we can talk about who won the election. but even if joe biden ends up winning, i'd like to think that there would be some understanding that you don't is just leave a pie at our doorstep after calling us all these things after not recognizing that many of us were for donald trump because we believe in the

sanctity of life, we want to side with israel, not iran, we believe in lower taxes, we don't want so much regulation of the government, we believe in federalism and leaving things to the states, we want open, transparent government, and this is a president who's been falsely impeached, spied upon by government agencies, relentlessly hounded by the press who hate him and who have given him 95% negative, hateful coverage. even in the aftermath of the election, somehow we're supposed to just say, oh, we're cool with it. for four years the democrats tore up the president's state of the union speech, they went after him. so, you know, kiss and make up? love to see the country come together, but it's going to require some honest assessment on the other side to do that. harris: right. so, governor, and maybe it wasn't fair to ask you why i feel sad today. i'll answer the question -- [laughter] it is because it could be in either direction. i mean, i remember covering this early, early in my career when,

you know, it went the other way. former president george w. bush was facing al gore, and let's put up that washington times page. ask you just wonder -- and you just wonder when you see these things, calling someone president already, what it must have been like for those democrats as well. and i remember how broken-hearted the country was there, and we just don't go forward when we're broken-hearted. that's not why i'm sad. it's not picking one side or the other for me, i mean, i'm just a reporter, basically. but it breaks my heart when i realize that no one's -- and we've heard some from joe biden, the president-elect, but no one's necessarily thanking those people, the 71 million. we justed had engagement like never before. it's amazing how many people who came out to vote, regardless of who they voted for. so what is incumbent upon joe biden and his administration to do to reach out to republican

voters, those trump supporters? they're not going away. just like the gore supporters didn't go away. >> yeah. maybe a little respect. i mean, it's simple as that, harris, a little respect would go a long way. there hasn't been any. again, it's been just a ruthless four years of not accepting the election results of 2016. let's go back to inauguration day. a lot of the democrats didn't even show up for donald trump's inauguration. they boycotted it. they boycotted his state of the union addresses. they called him a racist and a bigot and a xenophobe, and they called all of us who supported president trump, and i'm going to say again who still do support president trump. so, you know, the notion after four years of relentlessly being unwilling to bring any unity, they wouldn't even accept the president's offer, the most generous offer of resolving daca. the president put on the table

what the democrats asked for. they walked away. the president put more on the table in the infrastructure program than they asked for, and they walked away. so, you know, when i hear them say we want to bring unity, really? we've been missing that for the last four years. so if for four years you've not brought unity, maybe you're having a hard time convincing us you're in it today. harris: joe biden has a reputation for bringing people together. he and mitch mcconnell worked together for years on the hill. let's see what happens next. s it is always great to see you, governor. thank you for your time. >> thank you, harris. harris: some members of the so-called squad, the more progressive side of the democratic party, defending fellow progressives of after biden ally, former republican governor of ohio john kasich, pointed fingers at them for costing democrats seats in the house. and very sad news today as we've been telling you and visited some of the difference that alex tremendous beck has made --

>> the democrats have to make it clear to the far left that they almost cost them this election. that people in this country are basically center, center-right, center-left. they're not far left, and they're also not far right. harris: former ohio republican governor john kasich is blaming progressives for how close the presidential election was. now liberal members of the so-called squad are on defense after several moderate democrats blamed them for unexpected losses in the house. here's congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez today. >> we can help. it's not saying that every member has to campaign as a

progressive in the traditional progressive way, but it's to say we have assets to offer the party that the party has not yet, you know, fully leaned into or exploited. harris: texas democratic congressman henry cuellar joins me now, a member of the house appropriations committee and blue dog coalition. great to have you on the program, good to see you, sir is. let's start off with what needs to happen first within your own party. what does it look like when progressives like the congresswoman, ocasio-cortez, push and say, no, no, their voices have to be heard? how do you balance all of that? >> there are going to be different voices inside the democratic party. i'm a center-left democrat, and, you know, there are some people that are far left, some people that are far right, but those are just going to be different voice es. i am one voice, other people are just one voices, and we'll let

the democratic caucus do that. but i would tell you that all of us, we as members of congress, we have our own individual districts, we know our districts, and we have our own brand inside our district. i'm not going to let anybody from outside my district tell me how i should campaign inside my district, and i'm not going to tell that to anybody else also. harris: do you think, as john john kasich says, that those far-left progressives put in jeopardy what you needed to do on the hill during the elections this season? >> well, again, everybody has their own thoughts on that. i can tell you this, that some of that messaging didn't play well in my congressional district. maybe it plays well -- harris: like what? >> -- in other members' districts, but in my district it didn't play well. and i think the senator -- i mean, the former governor had a point about we just gotta make sure that we understand one thing, america is not far left, america is not far right, it's

either center-left or center-right, and that's the way it's been, and that's the way it's going to be. harris: so when you say it didn't play well, give me a specific example. what didn't play well? >> defunding the police. harris the police. >> or even attacking the oil and gas. i mean, everybody has their own district. in my area energy big here, as you know. texas number one in the country oz on oil and gas but we're also number one in wind energy in the country also. so we have to understand that there are ways that we can balance the energy sector along with a transition. but no transition's going to happen overnight. i do support the energy sector, i've done that for many years. i know the good paying jobs they have, and i'd rather be dependent on our own energy than to be dependent on the middle east for energy. i want to produce here locally in the united states.

harris: well, congressman, what i hear you say, defund the police, that was a little bit across the board. but specifically, the oil, the fracking, the gas and all of that, that was from now the president-elect. so so you had a little bit for everybody in there that didn't, as you say, necessarily play well for you. i want to get to -- >> well, i mean -- harris: -- representative ilhan omar now on these claims, and excuse me, by moderate democrats that liberal positions caused democrats to lose seats in the house. let's watch what she had to say. >> some of these candidates who went out and rallied with black lives matter and thought that it was convenient or even cute, this message that they are sending that we stand with you and when we think you are going to be helpful to us, and we are going to condemn you when there is a challenge really isn't the message that we should be sending to our base.

harris: so, congressman cuellar, she seems to be saying she feels like certain members of the party use the progressives and don't listen the them. what do you say in responsesome. >> well, look, again -- look, i've got three brothers who are peace officers. my brother is the sheriff here in webb county, so i'm very strong on law enforcement. but to go to an extreme, to say that we need to defund the police, i disagree, and there's a lot of my members. there's members in swing states and districts, and certainly there are blue dogs also that we disagree with things like that. look, i'm not going to condemn the progressives, i'm not going to condemn the liberals, but i will tell you that i don't think they need to tell me or anybody else how we should run our own district. we'll listen to each other. we'll sit down and listen just like i sit down and listen to my republican friends. i'm a big, you know, i believe

in bipartisanship. so i'm willing to listen to different parties, but i think for any group to condemn somebody is not right. but i will tell you that in every district, certain messages will not play. let us run -- i think people need to let members run their own campaigns in their own districts and not come in and say that they know better than other members of congress in their own particular district. harris: real quickly, i have to go, but do you think that president-elect joe biden should visit some red states? should he be in your home state of texas talking about these things that you say didn't play well like energiesome -- energy? >> well, you know, certainly he will come to texas. we are going to invite him to texas and, certainly, there's some of us that, for example, you talk about energy, we certainly want to have input in the biden administration when it comes to energy. we want to find balance. that's the key. look, i believe in climate change, but we cannot just blame

the energy sector and change it right now. i know a lot of those people that still drive cars, still fly airplanes, still use the fossil fuels when they do transportation. i do believe in a -- harris: that's like everybody. >> -- a transition, but we've got to do it in a thoughtful way. harris: yeah. everybody is is still doing that. what you're talking about is everybody so far. congressman, thanks for being with me today. it was interesting to get your point of view. appreciate your time. >> thank you so much. have a wonderful day. harris: grow -- you too. president trump's team wants a recount in battleground wisconsin as the state working to certify the results there. what to expect in wisconsin. ♪ ♪ at fisher investments, we do things differently and other money managers don't understand why. because our way works great for us! but not for your clients. that's why we're a fiduciary, obligated to put clients first.

harris: the trump campaign is calling fa

recount in wisconsin as that state is counting continues there. joe biden was projected the winner of the critical battleground astronaut of wisconsin and holds a lead there of more than 20,000 votes with nearly all of the ballots counted. matt finn is live in madison for us with more. matt, the latest on the counting. >> reporter: harris, the trump campaign insists that the it submit that form aal request for a recount here, but it has to wait until all 72 counties in this state certify their own voting numbers and then submit them to the state, and that could take until november 17th. now, here in the democratic stronghold of madison, wisconsin, yesterday it was a day of celebrating. there was a parade of cars and also a masked gathering at the base of the capitol. people shoulder to shoulder, dancing, screaming and shouting and also chants and signs against the president, some cursing the president. also a dueling to-trump rally on the op -- pro-trump rally on the

opposite side of the capitol. the campaign is filing lawsuits based on what they believe is merit seeking all legitimate votes to be counted. here in wisconsin there were allegations of misconduct, notably in milwaukee. here's the administerrer of the wisconsin elections commission responding to those complaints and also a trump campaign attorney. >> wisconsin does not have more votes than registered voters. there were no absentee ballots found in the middle of the night. there were lawyers and observers from both parties on site and involved the entire time. that even includes at four a.m. when ballots were still being counted and posted. >> the president's message, the president's commitment is for a free and fair election and that every legal vote is counted. >> reporter: former governor scott walker has advised the president to seek a recount here in wisconsin, harris. harris: all right, matt, thank

you very much. meanwhile, president-elect joe biden reportedly is planning a flurry of executive orders to reverse some of president trump's policies. "the washington post" is reporting they include rejoining the paris climate accords, repealing the ban on nearly all travel from some muslim countries and allowing dreamers to remain in the united states. i want to get now to the power panel today, jason chaffetz and jessica tarlov. jessica, i'm going to get your reaction on that. the first order of duty will be, i mean, after the announcement of the coronavirus task force which starts tomorrow, we understand, from the president-elect, but to undo what donald trump has done. why? >> because democrats don't think the things that donald trump did were good. these have been key pledges of the biden campaign since he

started in the primary. he feels especially strongly about the paris climate accords which he was instrumental in formulating and we were, obviously, a key pillar of that organization. ask we've heard nancy pelosi talking about how dreamers have to be made a priority of democrats. that was one of the reasons that she ushered in such a big win in 2018 with that blue wave during the midterms. this makes complete sense and, frankly, every president does. donald trump went about his business reversing executive orders that president obama had put into place, dreamers, things that related to the epa as well, rolling back some of the climate protections. so this seems par for the course for a new presidency. harris: you know, jason, if anybody is going to kind of sum up whether or not a question got asked several times this hour, they can, you know, do it pretty quickly. here's the question. you talk about uniting the country, and this is how you do it. >> well, to jessica's point, each president does do this. if it's created with the stroke

of the pen, i it gets undone by a stroke of the pen. but i don't see anything -- i didn't see anything in joe biden's speech last night about truly uniting the country. i was kind of offended about the idea that he didn't even thank donald trump for his service, didn't even recognize and honor him for his service as the president of the united states. donald trump recognized hillary clinton. he honored her when he gave his speech. but this election, a, isn't over yet; b, i think it's going to be painful to watch some of these key executive orders switch and go another direction. but there is a difference in some of these regulations. joe biden will not be able to necessarily put all these regulations that donald trump took away, he won't be able to necessarily with the stroke of a pen put those back in place, and that'll be a good thing. harris: i want to take a look at this. it's former president george w. bush calling to congratulate joe biden, but also saying this in

his statement on that call. here it is, a quote, we'll pop it up on the screen. i want to congratulate president trump and his supporters on a hard-fought campaign. he earned the votes of more than 70 million americans, an extraordinary political achievement. they have spoken, and their voices will continue to be heard through elected republicans at every level of government. jessica, your response to that. >> i thought it was right on point for president bush if, obviously a republican, to mention people who support the republican candidate. but to jason's point about last night's speech from joe biden, we dud hear about trump voters there, and we heard him reinforce time and time again that he is going to be a president for all americans, not just the president for democrats though there were a lot of republicans who ended up supporting him. he wants to unify. he's been focused on it. i wish george bush had spoken up a little bit sooner about this, but it's important for the message of unity, and it's also important in terms of

recognizing the fact that we have had this election called. and donald trump congratulated hillary on her service because she conceded, and she also did that with a smaller margin of loss than donald trump has had. just look at what's going on in wisconsin right now. even scott can walker says this -- scott walker says this recount isn't going to get you anywhere. harris: good to see you both. jason, thanks for joining me twice. i'm going to move to this, it's a sad development, but we have more to celebrate in the life of alex trebek. a beloved tv game show host has died. alex trebek lost his battle with pancreatic cancer. he was 80 years old. christina coleman is live in los angeles with reaction. christina. >> reporter: hi, harris. alex trebek, the legendary game show host and human atarian, has passed away at his home. he was loved and adored by generations of trivia fans. the longtime show "jeopardy"

tweeted today: we are saddened to share alex passed away peacefully at home this morning surrounded by family and friends. thank you, alex. the tv icon announced in march of 2019 that he had been diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer and kept fans updated on his condition. he kept hosting the show and even joked about it in his straightforward, funny way. take a listen. >> i plan to beat the low survival rate statistics for this disease. truth told, i have to, because under the terms of my contract -- >> reporter: now, tremendous beck has been the face of jeopardy since 1984. he's known for being calm and kind but still having a way of letting contestants know when they answered a question wrong. he made broadcast history as the first person to host three american game shows at the same time. he had briefly added nbc's to tell the truth to his hosting duties. but he wasn't just a game show

legend, he was a philanthropist. he worked with world vision to help children in poverty and stricken communities all over the world. he also visited troops, boosting military morale with the uso. as for jeopardy, trebek has hosted more than 8,000 episodes. he's credited his fans for helping him get through tough medical treatments. he has millions of fans and will definitely be missed. harris? harris: christina, thank you very much. we'll be right back. age is just. and mine's unlisted. try boost® high protein... -with 20 grams of protein for muscle health- -versus only 16 grams in ensure® high protein. and now enjoy boost® high protein in café mocha flavor.

♪ i'm like you on-demand glucose monitoring. because they're always on. another life-changing technology from abbott. so you don't wait for life. you live it. harris: president-elect joe biden is planning to announce a coronavirus task force tomorrow. we've been talking about it this hour. cases are is surging with more than 126,000 new infections just yesterday. >> that plan will be built on bedrock science. it will be constructed out of compassion, empathy and concern. i will spare no effort, none, or any commitment to turn around this pandemic. harris: and what we learned today is that the

president-elect plans to tomorrow announce, along with that task force official lu, he has confirmed with fox news -- or his team has, i should say -- former surgeon general murphy the head of the coronavirus task force. and you look at the number of new cases yesterday, you'll recall just in the last few days the person that president trump had put in charge of testing, the admiraly area, was saying that the type of numbers that we're seeing now, much of them since labor day, much of them since halloween now we're starting to see some come in, those large gatherings of people that have been criticized over the time. but then we saw another pop last night as they celebrated the victory of joe biden. so, you know, we've got to be fair here and call out all of those groups that are not socially distancing. some in masks, some not. so the admiral said it's not a reflection of how much testing we are doing. he said, you know, in fact,

we're on par of what we have been doing, not that much more. is so these new cases have to be dealt with and looked at. we're hearing from epidemiologists and medical professionals across the field sounding the alarm about the coming holidays. so that's going on. and then i want to bring you up to speed with something that just happened moments ago, and that is that the first lady, melania trump, has tweeted. she's tweeted a few times since the election, but she's only do so that we know of once since joe biden declared victory. let's take a peek at that. the american people deserve fair elections. again, this is the first lady of the united states, melania trump. she says the american people deserve fair elections. every legal -- not illegal -- vote should be counted. we must protect our democracy with complete transparency. and, again, we believe this is the first time that we have heard from her on twitter since the president-elect declared victory last night, so we're continuing to cover the news on what comes out of the white house today.

obviously, that via tweet. so just a couple of things to tell you that we know are coming up and some things that we are watching. in nevada you saw over the last couple of hours we showed you, yes we dipped you into the clark county news conference there with joe gloria, he is the voter registrar, and there has been some criticism about the slow count. he said they are seeing some complaints of voting irregularities. the attorney general in that state of nevada has said so far no evidence. here on fox news we will cover all of it, and i just want to say a huge amount of americans participated on tuesday. we are a great country. thank you for watching. i'm harris. ♪ and because it's a ninja foodi, it can do things no other oven can, like flip away. the ninja foodi air fry oven, the oven that crisps and flips away. . . .
