stevens. it is a law firm or you know, logins and mussina or something. we love having you here.ere at cnn, this is our electoral map showing biden currently leading in enough states to win the electoral college. we are one week out. a huge number of votes already cast. what are you looking at right now that could change the trajectory of the race? >> well, look, i would focus on florida and pennsylvania. but what is different now is that probably half the number in the election have been cast. this is an election unlike any we ever had. it more like states in oregon where everybody votes by mail. at a certain point you realize you won or lost and it is usually before the election day. what could happen the die could be cast. one candidate will have enough votes banked they would not be able to make it up. we will see. that is the thing. we are not heading towards election day. it is about noon on election day. >> you said he said about half of the people. more than 68.5 million people, right. that is over half the ballots cast in the 2016 election already voted. does that mean h
