host: we have a text from ragan lexington, kentucky. he says we try to patronize small businesses.they have raised their prices so high to make up for lost revenue, we cannot afford it. more of the economic dynamic going on in the country. guest: it is true that large companies tend to have more ability to reduce prices. i think we have public policy in place in this country that sets a playing field against small businesses in a lot of ways. sometimes, it is more expensive to shop locally. but i think it is an important choice to make as a consumer, because it contributes to the overall health and well-being of our entire community. and it ensures that we have diverse local options. and it is not just the corporations that can play in the marketplace. host: our guest is amanda ballantyne, executive director of the main street alliance. main street -- mainstreetallia .ce.org is the website beyond this crisis that is happening right now, how does the country build a more resilient, equitable small business economy? guest: that is a great question. i think the incoming biden tremendo

host: let's hear from stephen in lexington, kentucky who voted early. thank you for taking my call. i voted in person and early. i was surprised at how quick and efficient it was. i was worried that there would be large crowds and i would be waiting a while. my area got it cleared out and very proficient and quick so i was very impressed. if i was going to vote by mail, since the post office has been having problems that my ballot was not going to be in person so that is why i decided to vote in person. map a question? -- may i ask a question? host: yes. caller: so, hypothetically we do not figure out who wins on election night, can one candidate say i'm just going to take this victory and go with it, can they do that? can they announce themselves the winner themselves and just continue on? host: john fortier? guest: there are several things to consider. first of all in terms of when the election is resolved, there are different ways of thinking about it. we often have, calls made by the networks or other press organizations based on very serious inform

host: alex, lexington park, maryland, a supporter of joe biden. hello. caller: good morning.hank you for taking my call. host: you are on. go ahead. caller: the only thing i wanted to say is i feel very happy, to be honest with you. as many people are going through their emotions, i am excited about three things. the first thing was this was the largest vote count ever. we have the largest participation of american citizens participating in our election, which should make everyone happy. democracy in a representative government -- representative democracy should function. 5 millionmp received more votes this time around that he did the first time around. him and the republican party i apologize.: we are out of time for this segment. all of you whond participated in this round. we will engage in another round of the same type of topics in the last half hour of the program. we will take a look and visit to talk abouts election and voting recounts. kim whaley joins us first. she is the author of what you need to know about voting and why. she is a former u.s. attorney. von spako

caller: i just want to say biden -- host: we will move on to laura beth in lexington, kentucky.rt president trump line. what did you want to say? arkansas, but i mean alaska right now helping with covid. i have and say support president trump because i support the first amendment, the second amendment, and on board with trump and his lgbtq the taxing ofl as the 1% to help the middle class such as myself financially. host: all right, we will he get there and talk to jake in pittsburgh. >> hi. .'m a donald trump supporter . voted for donald trump the reason being, my 401(k) has never been higher. i've seen some unrest on the streets in the city of pittsburgh and it really upset me so i figured i would support the candidate who supports the issues that belong to me. are you hearing on the local news in pittsburgh about the race in that state? you know, i think it is up for grabs for the most part. seems a tossup at this point. it is too close to call. i'll leave it up to the experts like yourself. host: let's hear from renee in spearfish, south dakota on our support vice president

in indiana has in the past so there are certain count counties that we want to see in and around lexington for example but was really jumping out at me right now is that virginia seems to be getting called by some news outlet so early when it wasn't called this early in 2016 even though it ultimately went for hillary clinton it's about one percent and but it is still being called by a couple of news outlets as a victory and i have my doubts about that but if that's true that could be an issue for president so you think right now what we need to be looking at is not who's going to win which state to the point that you're trying to make we kind of expected that virginia would probably go for biden just like we expected that kentucky would go for trump so what we're looking for is the delta the difference between how many votes trump got when he was facing off against hillary these of the how many votes he's getting this time around right. yeah yeah that's half of it the other part of it is to see what types of scores or numbers president trump is running up in the counties in virginia that k

this is lexington. joe biden, disproportionately early vote. let's see if this holds up to see if it stays this way. 73% right now. if you go back to hillary clinton, only 51%. if joe biden can do this stuff right here, we'll see -- >> john, i want to go to florida. we're beginning to get some numbers in florida. let's take a look in florida. >> here we go. this part of the country north of naples, very critical to the president. 5%. florida say huge state. we'll be at this for a long time. nice to get the first votes out of florida. where are they coming from? pasco county along the coast. that's a quick report. florida, we expect to be good and also expect it to give us a lot of clues about the electorate and about who might win tonight. 130,000 to 101, this state is essential to the president. joe biden would like it because he knows it would block. let's take a look. 59% four years ago. 56% right now if you round up. that's close. we'll watch this. is it significant? we dont know until we get more vote here. >> 79% of the vote. >> one count
