the counting continues in some of the key battleground states — georgia, arizona, nevada and pennsylvania among those still to declare. hello and welcome. donald trump has again complained of electoral fraud in tuesday's presidential poll, as his lead in two key states, georgia and pennsylvania, continues to shrink as postal votes are counted. at a news conference at the white house he said the system was corrupt but offered no evidence to back up his claims. if you count the legal votes, i easily win. if you count the illegal votes, they can try to steal the election from us. if you count the votes that came in late — we're looking at them very strongly — but a lot of votes came in late. i have already decisively won many critical states, including massive victories in florida, iowa, indiana, ohio, to name just a few. we won these and many other victories despite historic election interference from big media, big money and big tech. as everyone saw, we won by historic numbers, and the pollster got it knowingly wrong. they go it knowingly wrong. we had polls that were so ridiculous — and

donald trump needs to win pennsylvania and either nevada or pennsylvania and arizona. t now arizona, the trump campaign believes that if they continue the account, they will be ahead by friday. nevada, they believe that if they continue the count, they will be ahead by about 6500 votes. but there is a lot of sketchy stuff in nevada, i would not put a lot of stake in that. pennsylvania, ahead by 100,000 votes. right now we heard from rudy giuliani that they are counting the votes 125,000 ballots were counted without any poll watchers or representation from the campaign and they are very concerned about what is going on. they believe again that once these returns come in, they have enough votes to maintain the lead in pennsylvania. pennsylvania and arizona i believe the key for the president as a narrow path. i will admit that more narrowly than joe biden, but doable and confident that that will happen. >> dana: greg gutfeld, we have not heard from you today and we have been dying to. >> greg: it is a mess. i guess the upside is that the looters will have to put off their

not a lot in nevada, but some breaking here in pennsylvania.vice-president taking half point lead. 49.7 over 49.2 to donald trump. state law in pennsylvania requires a recount. if you're at .5% or less, and that's where we are. so perhaps you get a recount, maybe you do not if the lead for joe biden continues to grow. a day break earlier today, this marker right here, the difference, 34,458. at day break, that was 28,800. we just had another dump from pittsburgh, pittsburgh is here in allegheny county in the western part of the state that was able to give joe biden more of an edge. he's getting 60% of that late mail ballot count and he added to his numbers a short time ago. here in philadelphia we'll see how this goes throughout the day, guys we have been talking for days now about how you win elections in pennsylvania. if you're a republican, you have to keep the margins lower in philadelphia and lower in pittsburgh. if you're a democrat you have to drive those numbers up. joe biden has done that in the year 2020. philadelphia, these collar co

>>we're counting votes here in pennsylvania, georgia, north carolina, nevada among other places but these are the key swing pennsylvania is the state that we're focusing on because donald trump absolutely has to have it if he is to have a path to victory and right now, pennsylvania is a place where joe biden took the lead early today and he leads right now by about 22,000 votes. you see the vote differential right there and if biden can hang on in pennsylvania. he be the president elect there are about 100,000 votes that still need to be counted in pennsylvania and that's why. no one has declared biden the victor there none of the networks have and that is why probably biden didn't speak when he was hoping to earlier tonight. it seems like he still might speak, here's another number to watch more interesting than joe biden as leading the popular vote by more than 4 million votes in 2016. hillary clinton you may recall won the popular vote by about 2.8 million biden with a significantly they're getting more than 50% of the overall georgia going to recounting in georgia because of how close

the voters of those states, pennsylvania, nevada, arizona, they are going to decide who is the next president of the united states. it is not the voters of the 50 states. that is what the national popular vote would change. in order for this to be in place for the next presidential election, so that we never have chaosch this turmoil and that has still not ended as of today, that could all in it by 2024, we go to elect the president by the national popular vote. the national popular vote is what the voters of this country want. everyone a mapow of the states that have already passed and agreed to the national popular vote legislation. any particularng state over the next four years where it looks likely that the voters will agree to this? host: the national popular proposal is active in every state. what is interesting, if you look at the 16 states, we can group them. you have small states like hawaii and delaware and rhode island. you have middle sized states like colorado, connecticut, maryland, massachusetts. then you have large states, california, illinois and new york read in terms of --

arizona, nevada, georgia, north carolina and pennsylvania. joe biden leads in four of those currently. president trump is ahead in north carolina. both candidates still do have the path to victory. joe biden with 253 electoral college votes. president trump currently with 214. >>> president trump needs to win at least four of the five outstanding states. biden only needs to win pennsylvania or any combination of two other states. of course, as you likely know by now, 270 is the goal. those numbers actually haven't changed since election night. we turn now to tracie potts in wilmington, delaware, where the biden campaign was hoping to hold a victory rally but for the fourth night in a row put that on hold. >> look at the national numbers. we'll win with a clear majority of the nation behind us. >> reporter: joe biden poised for victory, but still urging patience. >> democracy works. your vote will be counted. >> reporter: biden's bullish prediction that he'll win more than 300 electoral votes with leads in pennsylvania, nevada, arizona and eve

pennsylvania. let's step back to nevada. you saw joe gloria, he was detailed. that was good. what he was talking about is he doesn't have observers, so every state does this differently. they also don't have as many votes to count, i mean under 63,000, he's got 63,262 ballots to count. but when you get to a place like pennsylvania where you do have so many, the observers have been the issue for the trump campaign. can you walk us through what's happened today? they were calling it a victory, the campaign, the trump campaign that they were going to get those republican observers inside that big hall where their accounting. and i'm curious to know, what's going on now? we are kind of in limbo. we are waiting for the p.a. supreme court, what's happening? >> there is a an order from an appellant judge saying the observers go in, the trump campaign has won this round. so now obviously it depends on what the other side, the democrats, see fit to do. shame on them if they say, as they may in the pennsylvania shipping port, we don't want observers. really? you don't want checks and b

we have heard from our correspondence in nevada, pennsylvania, already in the last half—an—hour and nevadat process there is taking a long time. 0ver that process there is taking a long time. over in pennsylvania, a crucial state of course, 20 electoral college votes for gra bs of course, 20 electoral college votes for grabs in pennsylvania, forjoe biden, if he wins that, that takes him over the 270 electoral college votes he would need to become president. but he is not there yet and we will wait to hear more from joe biden in the next couple of hours. that is it for me, iam couple of hours. that is it for me, i am at lewis vaughan—jones, this is bbc news. hello there. after a couple of cold and frosty mornings with a bit of mist and fog around, we'll start to see some changes to the weather this weekend. that's because lower pressure will be moving in, bringing milder weather to all areas by the end of the weekend, but also outbreaks of rain mostly across southern and western areas. 0ur big area of high pressure which brought the settled weather will be dominating the scene this weekend

joe biden is ahead in pennsylvania, nevada, and georgia.far, he is projected to have one 264 electoral college votes. the whole trump has 214. the magic number required is 270. joe biden needs only to win one of those undecided states to get over the finishing line. let's start with pennsylvania where joe biden is ahead of donald trump by over 15,000 votes. a decision there could come in the next few hours. the remaining ballots are from democratic leaning cities of philadelphia and its part. -- pittsburgh. joe biden is leading in georgia by just over 4000 votes in an unusually tight race. officials said they expect a recount. per state law, a candidate can request a recount if the margin of difference is under 0.5%. nevada has the highest percentage of votes left to count, but the six delegates could make or break either candidate. right now, joe biden is in the lead there as well. in north carolina, donald trump is in the lead by just over 76 thousand votes. the state has voted republican in every election since 1980. that is except when

pennsylvania, michigan, and georgia, and they joined existing republican legal challenges in pennsylvania and nevada is challenging the handling of some absentee ballots. the pennsylvania and michigan suits filed yesterday sought to stop the counting until trump campaign observers are allowed to review ballots that have already been counted. according to "the new york times," the michigan lawsuit claims secretary of state jocelyn benson, a democrat, was allowing absentee ballots to be counted without teams of bipartisan observers as well as challengers. but the "associated press" reports that observing firsthand that there are plenty of poll watchers from both parties in counting locations. joe biden was awarded the state of michigan after the suit was filed. we projected that he was going to win that state. in addition, the president's campaign intervened at the supreme court in a case challenging pennsylvania's plan to count ballots received for up to three days after election day. and in georgia, the suit alleges that chatham county is improperly counting ballots received after the state's electi

pennsylvania and nevada have become the latest states to certify the president elect as the winner. and by now has formally unveiled some of his top team that she had written, see reports. president elect biden was unequivocal as he presented his national security appointments and nominees. it's a team that reflects the fact that america is back ready to lead the world, not retreat from it. once again, sit at the head of the table, ready to confront our adversaries, and not reject our allies ready to stand up for our values. much was made of the backgrounds of the nominees as examples of the american dream. linda thomas greenfield, nominated as u.s. ambassador, a 100 mile costs are latino immigrants nominated to lead the department of homeland security. and avril haynes, the 1st female director of national intelligence. if confirmed mr. president, you know that i have never shied away from speaking truth to power. but for all the talk of diversity, this is a national security team that symbolizes the return of the washington foreign policy establishment after 4 years in the cold. no

but he's formally unveiled some of his top team while pennsylvania and nevada have become the latest states to certify him as the winner. it's a team that will keep our country and our people safe and secure. it's a team that reflects the fact that america is back ready to lead the world. not retreat from it. once again, sit at the head of the table, ready to confront our adversaries, and not reject our allies ready to stand up for our values. in a brief white house appearance, u.s. president, donald trump has taken credit for a record day in the markets. the dow jones index reached a historic high on tuesday following the transition developments and progress on the coronavirus vaccines. hong kong's chief executive kerry land says her urgent priority is to restore the territory's political system from chaos in her annual policy address. she also said the government would begin a public education programme to enhance understanding of the rule of law. ethiopia's government claims that falls into grey have begun to surrender. they've been given until wednesday to lay down their arms. bu

president don't trump and battleground states which will decide the outcome biden is leading in pennsylvania nevada and georgia he needs just one of them to get him of the line trumps needs all of them plus north carolina to hit the $270.00 electoral seats required for victory meanwhile election officials say they has yet to be any evidence of voting irregularities but donald trump's rather composite says legal teams have been sent to 4 states to investigate. we have seen some discrepancies in michigan and some irregularities that deserve investigation democrats and the media spent 4 years and millions of taxpayer dollars talking about a russian hoax on the grounds of election integrity now with just over 48 hours after polls have closed in an actual election for president they want to ignore clear irregularities russia call states as one and the selection we will not stand for that every candidate in every office from president down to the local level has a legal right to challenge irregularities that occur in the process of canvassing ballots we intend to ensure that every lawful voter has their

going to be coming in next pennsylvania has most of its ballots counted but in the other states pennsylvania nevada and arizona electoral officials are saying everybody has to be patient that they're not going to announce any results and to all the votes have been counted because the margins are so close so those are the states that are going to be we're going to watch right now pennsylvania of course in trump's favor but as more votes are being counted that could flip toward biden and that's one of the main reasons why biden is optimistic because because if he wins pennsylvania he wins the presidency very exciting indeed i mean as if they're in washington thank you very much well here in germany police are carrying out raids in connection with monday's terror attack in the austrian capital bianna according to the federal prosecutor's office homes in pin a back oh simple look and are being combed for possible evidence and ties to islam is to extremist circles the 20 year old assailant was shot dead by police after killing 4 people austrian authorities say international terror units are operating in

number-plus, that joe biden could hit based on what they're doing in wisconsin, michigan, pennsylvania, nevadand georgia? >> no. i don't expect that the result could be overturned as a legal matter. that doesn't mean there won't be legal activity in the interim, particularly in pennsylvania and nevada. i think it's worth -- in understanding the legal developments in recent days, it's worth comparing it to the republic legal strategy after the 2000 election in florida. regardless of whether you agree with the outcome there, was a highly orchestrated, disciplined, focused pr and legal strategy. we're seeing a much different approach 20 years later. what we've seen since election day with the trump campaign has instead been a scatter shot of lawsuits in georgia, michigan, nevada and pennsylvania that seem to be less about any underlying legal issue with the election, but more about creating a misimpression with the public that misconduct is rampant. >> matthew sanderson, i wish we had more time, sir. i'm fascinated by this conversation. we'll have you back. that does it for us on this special hou

lightly shaded that's where the margin is still too close to call that includes nevada, wisconsin, michigan pennsylvania. north carolina and georgia we've seen the number shifts slightly so let me walk you through with the story as with each one of these states nevada will start their account there is still going on, but at the moment, they're not going to announce any new updates until tomorrow that word came from the secretary of state so the numbers that we see right now on the board are the numbers we have to work with joe biden in the lead currently with 49.2% of the vote donald trump with 48 0.5 9 there's still 60 that's only 67% of the vote counted right now and you can see where the votes are coming in and how they're playing to either president trump or joe biden the 2 big population centers are heavily democratic and those are where the majority of uncounted votes still exist this morning and that's where we're going to see if president trump can eat into any of those numbers and shrink the margin or will joe biden continue to see his lead expand that will be the story we track this week all r

georgia, pennsylvania, nevada, arizona, the counting continues. that is the focus through this morning. toa: we are waiting to hear see whether we can pencil in joe biden as the next president. that does seem to be what is on the table. depending on what you look at with respect to electoral votes, joe either has 264 or 253 versus the 214 of president trump. the key issue is it is going to be tuesday night in america for a very long time because there's going to be a lot of litigation. , 8:30 a.m..ay of course, we are focused on the election. there is expectation of a deceleration of the jobs recovery. a big question is where these recovery will occur and how much we are pressing in the ramping end of the covid pandemic. again, this really will be the center stage story next week when you start seeing some of these record numbers and the prospect of possible lockdowns in the united states. tomorrow, berkshire hathaway reporting results. usually people care. perhaps this. much -- perhaps this week, not so much. opportunityame out in an environment

come out a few battleground states democratic candidate joe biden has taken the lead in pennsylvania georgia and nevada donald trump has made some gains in arizona but not . by the supporters of a celebration in philadelphia anticipating a victory when a state of pennsylvania with 20 electoral college votes would push biden beyond the 270 required to take the white house. trump's campaign team government a fire that's now trying to raise $16000000.00 to fund no also challenging the results the president is making unsubstantiated claims about voter fraud casting dulls of the integrity of the election. let's take a closer look now at trump's legal efforts his campaign has filed suits in georgia michigan pennsylvania and of august states where he's either lost or faces an extremely close race various suits in those states include allegations of late and invalid votes being tabulated and campaign observers being denied adequate access to the counting trumpets failed to score any significant legal victory so far 2 cases in michigan and georgia have been dismissed for a lack of evidence. ok let's bring in br

always good to have you on the program professor can we just begin with all eyes really on pennsylvania nevada and georgia and this potential scenario where the final outcome may be decided in the courts if president trumps team has the evidence to present to judges i mean what's your reading of the situation. let's separate the political from the legal and the conspiracy theories the politicos the one joe biden is likely to be confirmed as us president today and that is as he began to explain he is ahead in nevada and the remaining votes are coming from democratic areas so he should secure those 6 electoral votes which if he holds his lead in arizona which you've already called for him that already gives him the election but he is almost certain to overtake trump in pennsylvania today trump's lead is only $800000.00 votes now and most of the remaining about is from democratic areas and in georgia he does have a good chance of overtaking trop dollars less than $1300.00 votes there and again votes are coming in from democratic areas so any one of those gives the victory to what the shift to is

it in pennsylvania nevada and in georgia so far he's projected to have 1264 electoral college votes trump has 214 of course the magic number required is 270 biden needs only to win one of those undecided states to get over the finishing line. let's start with pennsylvania where biden is ahead of trump by over 15000 votes a decision that could come in the next few hours the remaining 1000000 ballots are mostly from the democratic leaning cities of philadelphia and pittsburgh. biden is also leading in georgia find just over $4000.00 votes in an unusually tight race but officials say they expect a recount as a state law a candidate can request a recount if the margin of difference is within not point 5 percentage points and the state of nevada could well be the last showdown it has the highest percentage of votes left accounts but those 6 delegates could make or break either candidate and right now joe biden is in the lead there as well in north carolina trump is in the lead by just over 76 and a half 1000 votes that's not a surprise the state has voted republican in every election since 198

he's formally unveiled some of his cabinet team, pennsylvania and nevada. have become the latest states to certify results, making him the winner and biden's transition and coronavirus vaccine progress through the dark jones stock index above 30000 points the 1st time ever. shortly after trading opened. and protesters have been out in central paris after the lower house of the french parliament gave initial approval to a new law, limiting the right to film or photograph police officers. came as police were criticized for forcefully removing migrants from a makeshift camp in the press to her pubic on monday night. if european government says to grande regional forces have started to surrender 3 weeks after the army began its offensive in the northern region, follows a deadline by promise to be a med for them to lay down their arms by wednesday or face an attack on the region's capital a kelly, but leadership says it's fighting back, claiming it's destroyed, an ethiopian military division, including a helicopter and 2 tanks. it's difficult to verify either ac

it remains a very tight race being closed in different battleground states over night in pennsylvania and nevada the former vice president is leading by less than one percent and in georgia biden has taken the lead by just over a 1000 votes with 99 percent of the ballots counted as mentioned the margins is so tight that recount will take place incidentally a democrat hasn't won that state in decades meanwhile the race and north carolina is still too close to cool well let's go live now to wolf in our correspondent in new york gavin it seems that we're going down to the very wire just a couple of 100 a couple of 1000 votes fine margins what's the latest in these key battleground places well in arizona georgia pennsylvania and nevada biden does have a slight lead and that is causing a lot of optimism in the democratic camp this is what we just heard from nancy pelosi. i wish we weren't wearing masks so we could see how exciting it is to come before you today with joe biden having the tremendous mandate that he has and that. pretty soon the hyphen will be gone from vice president to president elect

pennsylvania, georgia, arizona, nevada. we are following counts in all of those states.he weather should even out a bit more, i think, for friday. certainly compared with thursday, where we had the wind blowing over the pennines, bringing some sunshine in durham and temperatures reaching 18 degrees. whereas across southern parts of england, when that fog formed, it lingered into the afternoon in some places and temperatures only eight or nine celsius. now, it's quite chilly early in the morning across more southern areas of the uk. where we have the clearer skies, a pinch of frost. further north, there is more cloud around. but where we have those clearer skies in england and wales, there's some mist and fog, particularly towards the west country and the south—east of wales in the morning. it'll lift fairly readily, mind you, as the breeze picks up and we get sunshine developing widely. and that cloud, quite low cloud, moving northwards across scotland and northern ireland and some sunshine coming in here as well. the winds picking up in the south—west through the day. t

joe biden now leads donald trump in pennsylvania and georgia he also remains head in nevada and arizona as vote counting continues but democratic leaders were already saying he has one president elect biden has a strong mandate to lead and it will have a strong democratic house with him and many democrats in the senate this is not a life or death fight for the fate of our democracy as he says the soul of our country the trump campaign launched a barrage of lawsuit seeking to halt vote counting or to toss out mail and absentee ballots tabulated after election day but the president's lawyers provided little if any evidence of fraud after full suited filled remarks at the white house thursday trump issued a slightly more tempered written statement on friday saying this is about the integrity of our entire election process we will pursue this process through every aspect of the law i will never give up fighting for you and our nation. trump asked the supreme court to intervene in pennsylvania and the city's mayor responded no i think what the president needs to do is frankly put his big boy

that obviously is the case with pennsylvania, nevada. d make a difference. when we look at pennsylvania, there are legitimate objections that observers this is not like seeing denali from 100 miles away. you have to see the ballots there is a good point to be made there. the other reason the lawsuits are brought stabilize the patient. stop the counting until a court can get involved we can all agree on how this count can go forward. brian: the governor came out never seen something so outrages he wants to count all the ballots. did the ballots get in on time. where are they coming from? are you going to throw out signature-matching. there are rules you can't fill out a ballot any time in the vicinity of election day, right? >> right there. are rules. we don't have evidence of widespread fraud. we have irregular glats. error rig glarts. we havirregularities.will you wg conditions or releasing conditions. all of that is likely to end up in the court. we have had challenges in past elections. that's nothing new. so, this system will survive.

maths has been played out in small government buildings and windowless offices in arizona, pennsylvania, nevadand votes here, a few hundred there — all the time chipping away at donald trump's grip on the white house. there will, though, be a recount in georgia, where margins are so tight. in pennsylvania today from the pro joe biden supporters the party has already started and yes there will be dancing in the streets. it's over for you! but from donald trump supporters, increasing anxiety and lots of chance of usa! usa! and in las vegas, nevada, the trump supporters resorted to prayer, "please let our luck change" — not the first time that prayer has been offered in sin city. last night, a disconsolate president made a long, unhappy statement, again alleging without evidence that he was being robbed of a victory that was his. if you count the legal votes, i easily win. if you count the illegal votes, they can try to steal the election from us. and we think we will win the election very easily, we think there's going to be a lot of litigation, cos we have so much evidence, so much proof, and it

we believe our house races in michigan, pennsylvania, nevada, contributed to those electoral college successes and across the country to almost 79 million votes that joe biden has. we are very proud of him and kamala harris and unifier for r country and proud of the success. people are saying this, that and this. no. no. no. we want more. and we will have more. and we have already started that. but i want you to be sure you ew nearly two more million votes than donald trump. any questions? >> your oversight committee asked for the head of the g.s.a. to come in and testify. why are they deciding to do it now and what do you see the house's role in ensuring a smooth transition? pelosi p ms. pelosi: they wanted a briefing. testifying is different. they asked for a briefing and hopefully that is before thanksgiving that will happen. you hope that people would have good faith in the jobs they have. you want to give them a chance to get that done. it is totally mystifying that the g.s.a. refuses to make the statement necessary so that transition to happen in an orderly happen. they were tr

states that trump and his lawyers keep saying are up in the air, up in the air, five, georgia, pennsylvania, nevadachigan, arizona, they have now certified officially that biden won those states. you know, it's clear that wisconsin is supposed to have -- their deadline is tomorrow. they are going to certify it as well. you'll have all six states, the battleground states officially certifying that biden and harris have won. >> right. well, look. of course. but the president is never going to stop saying that the election was rigged and that he didn't lose. biden can be inaugurated and donald trump, i believe, will refuse to ever believe he lost anything unless it was rigged against him. so we are going to continue to hear this. this is a president who was complaining that biden should not be appointing his cabinet because, of course, the election not over. now we know that not to be true. we know that the president-elect should appoint a cabinet so they can start working immediately and get into agencies and understand what is going on and what they need to do. this is a president who is staying sto

we're talking pennsylvania, nevada, georgia and north carolina as the president saws he will fight --s he will fight to the end as joe biden will speak in a couple of hours. with us tonight we're going to bring to you robert ray,ly lewandowski, harmeet dhillon, jim trust key and former -- jim trusty and matthew whitaker on the breaking news happening now. we're talking a georgia recount could happen. but here's the story, could a recount also happen in pennsylvania, nevada and the other battlegrounds too? and how long until the u.s. gets a final result? also we are going to ask corey lewandowski what the trump team gdwhen iwht i i comeses to vott dovidodencviedencencef v in cinourtrtrt a ctiri a are bla back sayin sg ayit'say'sayre,ret the cathsesk? expect actotct of litigation. critics blasting back at the president's e rhetoric. plus, the democrats continue to lose seats in the house. democrat outrage and anger growing hotter by the day. they're blaming nancy pelosi and the hard left for alienating voters with extreme rhetoric like defund the police. the irony rich because now conse

latest developments in nevada and arizona let's start with nevada rob 6 electoral votes up for grabs powers in comparison to the likes of pennsylvania but as things stand now very very important where are we at. well in nevada joe biden is increasing the distance between himself and president donald trump the margin is now $11438.00 votes most of those were most of the remaining votes to be counted are from the. area around las vegas that's clark county and as patty was noting with regard to the urban areas in pennsylvania the urban area in nevada also tends to favor the democrats that's a democratic stronghold so the clark county that's the county where las vegas is. registrar says that he's not aware of any kind of impropriety in terms of the ballots that have been processed at under his watch that's despite president trump's claims that there's something fishy going on all over the country trumps campaign has actually filed a court case in the vada alleging that people who do not reside in the state were allowed to cast ballots and and other allegations now the. unlike georgia unlike pennsylvania nevada is a state that does not u

neil: or point, legal action being taken, georgia, pennsylvania, nevada.low election lawyer say we may not have answers until mid december. is that right? >> that is potentially right. estates move through the process of certifying their elections, no disrespect to networks calling elections, that doesn't mean anything. the actual decision happened to review the process and certify at numerous times through the process there is potential for legal action. florida is unique because it centered around one particular state dragged out through the entire process but theoretically we could be having this conversation all the way through certification. todd: sorry for jumping around the country but the georgia thing just came down. and nevada where we plan on talking about the crux of the argument did people voted and people that moved or didn't have proper residency requirement voted. based on what you know is the trump campaign going to be successful in their legal actions? and based on the numbers as you know them to that win him the election? >> i have an se

undeclared battleground states according to associated press figures being used by a win in pennsylvania in georgia all nevada were put to mr biden in the oval office . meanwhile president trump is peddling conspiracy theories and a litany of baseless claims insisting he's won and they see being robbed of reelection. i'm filled to hell welcome to the program joe biden is edging closer to the white house as final votes are still being counted 3 days after the u.s. election the democratic challenger has extended his late in the key state of pennsylvania in the last hour president trump has insisted that he will press ahead with his legal challenges and says he will never stop fighting so let's take a look at the picture so far joe biden has $264.00 an actual college votes donald trump has $214.00 according to the a.p. news agency biden leads by more than $13000.00 votes in pennsylvania around 98 percent of the vote has now been counted now that's worth 20 electoral college votes and is the biggest prize still up for grabs. on to georgia with its 16 electoral votes biden has pulled ahead of trump here with most

hundreds of thousands are outstanding in pennsylvania, arizona, nevada and georgia. in other words, there is still a long way to go, baby. i'm going to go first to arizona. a state that nbc just switched to too close to call. but joe biden is leading there and nbc's gadi schwartz is in scottsdale. we got some new results overnight. where do things stand now? >> good morning, steph. we're expecting more ballots to be counted today. also probably expecting to see more protests at the maricopa county elections center. a crowd of about 300 gathered in front of those steps yelling at election officials chanting, we love trump and count those votes. a lot of them were extremely angry saying they thought the election was being stolen from the president even though there are still possibly days away from that count finally being finished. a lot of frustration coming from what appeared to be that early sizable biden lead here in arizona with those returns that we've seen. so far we understand there are still about 270,000 ballots here in maricopa county alone that still need

there are lots of different pathways you can get to, obviously if he wins pennsylvania that changes things. but nevadas absolutely a scenario where biden loses states like georgia and pennsylvania north carolina and suddenly nevada would be the crucial state for biden and it is a very, very close. just one thing to say about the republicans here, they are very litigious, they have already launched all sorts of lawsuits previous to the election. i think if it's close here you can pretty much guarantee you are going to see more lawsuits from the republicans to come here. james clayton in las vegas. evenifjoe even ifjoe biden does become president, if his party does not control congress it can be difficult to get things done. they are expected to remain control of the house with a reduced majority. they were unable to unseat susan collins who has fought off a strong challenge. they needed to gain three orfour challenge. they needed to gain three or four senate seats for control they have had just an increase of one. democratic strategist, cristina antelo joined me from washington, i asked her how difficu

pennsylvania has 20. so if you got pa that would put 2.73 would have to worry about georgia would you can sit lose arizona would have to worry about nevada and how long they're taking so there are multiple past year for the biden campaign for trump, his options are extremely limited and slim. he has to win pennsylvania and then he has to have a lot of other things fall his way in order for him to come back it would be a monumental comeback but the trump campaign surprise america. a lot of america in 2016 they're not done yet, but certainly if you had to pick a camp that you are in tonight, you would want to be on team biden at least in terms of chances of winning this thing they haven't called it yet, but we'll wait for. someone to do so if in fact that happens tonight maybe biden speaks tonight. if they call it we'll have to see for now we'll send it back to you guys at the desk got good at that front. you say that because we're down well thank you ketchup and mustard i should say we just we didn't do >>they look good you look good. >>meantime the trump campaign has filed a string of lawsuits in several states alleging fraud asking for

nevada, pennsylvania, and others.ent on the georgia number, and the lead for president trump seems to be decreasing as more votes are counted. that is the state of play right now as we raced to 270. is six electoral college votes away. the u.s. has become the first country to top 100,000 cases of coronavirus and a 24 hour period. france is warning of a second wave, and italy and greece are the latest countries to support locked and measures. more restrictions in various parts of europe. what are the fears around the european economy at this point? maria: anna, there's a few. if you look at the numbers that came out by the european commission yesterday, they see a bigger subtraction than expected. they look at the pickup and 22 anyone, 2022, it's not big and 2021, 2020, it's not big enough to pick up. there is a concern about a double-dip reception taking hold in europe, especially if we do see lockdowns being extended in time, which is a very real possibility. we look at what macron has repeated, this is a situation t

as of friday afternoon he was leading in pennsylvania, nevada, arizona and georgia.with a razor th lead in georgia a recount will take place there. president trump has made baseless lames of voter frd. and they will have lawsuits in key battleground states. joining me now is a fellow at the hoover institution and former advisor to the presidential campaign of mitt romney and marco rubio. and from los angeles is a professor of the loyasclaw ol and host of the passing judgment podcast. thank you for joining us. let's start with the legal challenges president trump hamo ted in various states. do you see any of them having the strength to prevail? >> i don't at thispoint. what you need in a legal challenge you have to find a provision of the law that has been violated anen you have to find evidence to support that assertion. at this point, i'm not sure i see y that in of the cases and that's why frankly, president trump's legal team is having a bad batting average where a number of cases have been dismissed or they've nt failed to ue with those cases. the real question i

it's really hard to do this math without pennsylvania unless he gets nevada as well. like i said he's not in checkmate, but there's not a lot of moves left. >> let's go to rick clean. we think there's about 130,000 votes out in pennsylvania. we heard senator bob casey say he's confident biden is going to win. walk us through where the numbers are. >> our decision desk at abc news is looking at the universe of two different types of votes. you mentioned 130,000. about a third are probably from republican leaning counties, counties in the western part of the state. crawford, beaver, armstrong, blair. joe biden has been winning consistently in the mail-in vote. those are republican leaning counties. it's possible donald trump makes up some portion of the narrow lead. the lion's share of the votes are from democratic leaning counties. there's an unknown quantity of provisional ballots. this is when a voter goes to the polls and there's some question of eligibility. that number is larger because some people out there asked for mail-in votes. if you asked for a mail-in ballo
