and the university of georgia will not allow them to develop on campus so we have to go into the communitynd the city. john lewis his whole professional adult life is committed to voting rights and then at the same time higher education and university that is always devoting issues of recent to say they will not vote. and you can make all the symbolic changes that you want but it came to the presidents office. you just know it. i would like to see more operational changes to change the campus not just talk about it. >> and despite the faculty and that it doesn't reflect the communities and especially nobody is obligated to do that but we need to think of that differently and what kind of students are walking into and you would not allow the manifestations telling them they are not allowed there is a part of that issue to understand how the racial geography of the campus assigning that black and brown people are not welcome and that's connected not so far to the past so they are a part of our lives. i just want to leave us what dates or decisions so looking at headlines. what are a couple b

of play in georgia at the moment? larry: georgia looks like the center of the political universe in america not just because of the presidencybut also because the senate. with less than 2% of votest, l it looks like president trump's lead over joe biden is about 12,000 votes. that is from the secretary of state's website, but oneth tracking website says the lead has slimmed to about 9500. however, the control of the sena for democrats hinges on what happens here. there are two senate seats up for grabs. it looks likeoth will be going for a runoff in january. kay: what always matters is where those votes are coming om. within georgia, there are areas of that state at are fairly conservative leaning, and there are other areas of the state like atlanta that have become do we know where those uncounted ballots have been mailed in from? larry: the school of thought appears to be that the remaining ballots are mostly from democratic-leaning counties in the state of georgia. the big one is he in atlan. some surrounding counties, areae that are much acially diverse, there are a lot more c.voters that lean democra if you look at the

georgia matters. well andrea gillespie is an associate professor at the department of political science at emory university and she joins us now from georgia state cup of atlanta under thank you for being with us i find it amazing the fact that georgia is even competitive this year is remarkable in the count now down to this razor thin margin what has changed in your state is this about changing demographics or is it a dissatisfaction with what being republican has meant on the tram. thank you for having me it's a combination of demographic change in the state as well as in fruits organizing by democrats in the states the democrats have been eyeing the change in the composition of the electorate for about a decade now and they've been predicting that there would one day be at a time when they would once again regain control of some state offices and that they would actually win statewide elections so this is being spurred by the diversification of the population about 30 percent of the electorate is african-american but we're seeing the that this growth is among asian americans and hispanics so those numbe

[ inaudible ]. >> -- keeps the democrats from controlling the senate, therefore having control of the house, the senate, and the presidency. but i have to say, i give a slight advantage to the democrats because -- for a couple of reasons. one is, georgia is now almost a minority/majority state. they've got about 48% or 52% white voters, and over the last four years, they've registered over a million voters, mostly minority and young voters, thanks to team stacey abrams. so they have a lot of momentum. their challenge is to keep that momentum going even though donald trump is not going to be on the ballot. so that's really what they have to do, is they've got to keep

cindy powell is in the star of the pro-trump media universe. she's mostly focused on georgia cases. talking about voting machine that is were programmed by hugo chavez and deep level of conspiracy. to say she's not working for the president was confusing. on thursday, i heard him say this at a news conference in washington. >> representative of our legal team, representing president trump and we are representing the trump campaign. when i finish, cindy powell and jenner ellis will follow me. >> so alicia there are still question here that powell was at some point representing the president and his campaign. the question is why did the folks in the building behind me decides that she no longer do so. we spoke about last night and whether it was her commentary about releasing frauder fraud claim or any of these outlandish things. republicans are invested in winning those two senate races. we don't know which of those things but it seems to be the case as we stand here tonight. >> garret, a lot of attention on wisconsin. what's the trump campaign tragedy is there? >> to the degree they

universe of uncounted ballots shrinks. we're down to 50,000 uncounted ballots in georgia. we calculated what each candidate needs of the uncounted universe of votes to win the state. joe biden now only needs between 62 and 64% of the 50,000 uncounted ballots. the votes coming in, he has been winning more than that now because of where they're coming from, democratic areas. now it is only 62 to 64%. donald trump obviously has a lower percentage because he is in the lead, only needs 35 to 37% of the 50,000 uncounted votes to hang onto that lead in georgia and keep that state red but joe biden's number is becoming well within reach in terms of what we are seeing in vote returns. the percentage he is getting is ahead now of the 62 to 64% he needs, wolf. >> and what else is interesting, david, thank you very much. of the 50,000 uncounted vote remaining in georgia, we are told almost all of it is absentee ballots. >> absentee ballots. the percentage joe biden needs is shrinking, he has been overperforming it. that's a fascinating dynamic. this is the mail in ballots. we talked ab

who have not been following this, sydney powell is something of a star in the pro trump media universe. she's been mostly focused on the georgia cases so far. she's probably propagated some of the most outlandish theories, talking about voting machines that were programmed by hugo chaves and deep, deep multi-level conspiracies. to see rudy giuliani say she doesn't work for the president was confusing, because on thursday i also heard him say this at the news conference here in washington. >> she's a representative of our legal team. we're representing president trump and we're representing the trump campaign. when i finish, sydney powell and then jenna ellis will follow me. >> reporter: there's no question here that powell was at some point representing the president and his campaign. the question is why did the folks in the building behind me decide that she no longer should do so? whether it was frustration over losing some of these cases, whether it was her commentary about releasing a kraken of voter fraud claims, whether it was some of these outlandish things focused on georgia, where republicans are still very invested a

associate professor of political science and chair of the department of social sciences at cation state university joins us now from georgia let's talk about georgia what is the result there and the demographics of the people who turn down i'll tell you about the state of the state . well it's really just stock it's kind of the story of the country but in the state here urban area here in atlanta outside of the metro area is a high african-american population so you see the high turnout and the work done by stacey abrams to get the african-american vote out around the areas you're seeing on the new it's about polling county cab clayton county really where the those are the counties that came in strong for biden helpful at the state let's open the bit more about stacy abrams across london is calling it the stacy abrams effect how much credit should go to her for turning the state blue or explode. so she gets a good amount of credit as she should because the last couple of years this get out the vote effort has been huge but really it was her gubernatorial run in 28 which really helped the this shift but this is been this ha

university of southern california and a cnn election law analyst. great to see you. so, i want to talk about this breaking news. hi. that georgia will do another recount, the third. of course, cnn's headquarters are in georgia. asking how many times do you have to count the vote? so is this a formality? >> it's a formality. so when you have a vote as close as it was in georgia so if it's less than one half of a percent, the trump campaign can request a recount which just they rescan the ballots. so let me just emphasize, recounts rarely change the outcome of an election. you may see a shift of a couple hundred votes, maybe. so there's really no concern this will change. this is really just a formality. >> you heard jessica lay out what's been playing out this week, and what might be coming in the week ahead. what is the timeline? and do any of this -- does any of this delay the transition, for example? >> so, let's be clear about what's going on, in part, in thinking about in this timeline question. because the president's attempts to -- excuse me -- change the outcome of the election over the last couple weeks has really been

that means georgia could be at the center of the political universe through early next year. curious aspects of this election, biden turns ruby red but the two senate races are going into a runoff. very interesting. thank you very much. let's now check in with m.j. lee. she is in front of biden headquarters which is the place that biden has reserved to celebrate if he wins the election. will he get to do that? we'll see. what is the word out of the camp? >> it is word underscoring what a huge political feat this would be if he were to win georgia. as you pointed out a couple of times, a democratic presidential candidate hadn't won georgia since 1992. how did the biden campaign get there? think decided to go all in on the state in the final weeks of the campaign. joe biden himself went there and campaigned in georgia one week before election day. his running mate was dispatched to go there before election day and former president barack obama spent the monday before election day campaigning in atlanta. so, clearly, this was a purposeful decision by the campaign which saw that

georgia has become the political center of the universe as republican control of the senate now hingesrun-off races in january. and now both incumbent republican senators are in the fight for their political lives they have joined forces on the campaign trail. kelly lefler joined david purdue's wife. so characterize this race for us down there in georgia. these races, i should say. >> you have two very competitive races here. and on the flip side david purdue and jon ossoff. and we saw kelly lefler campaigning today. notably while they called for this, they were focusing on the issues and the campaigning. meanwhile we're seeing this play out on a larger scale here with the secretary of state announcing that recount by hand. and one thing that is so interesting about that is just what i'm hearing from republicans and democrats on the ground here. with republicans saying that this while they don't necessarily feel that the recount will change anything, it will not change the results. democrats saying if the only reason for the recount is to give republicans more any widespread results, t

an associate professor of political science at emory university. she joins us live from atlanta, georgia via skype. many thanks for speaking to us. on al-jazeera, there was concern that trump would cause havoc on his way out. is that what he's doing here with this move? well, i think that president trump's unpredictability is something that's predictable and so we expect him to make some really drastic changes. we saw that when he fired marcus for his secretary of defense. and so we can anticipate that he's going to make more changes that could be perceived as jarring. between now and noon on january 20th, when he leaves office, what else could we expect from him in the next 64 days? i mean, i think the sort of general adage is to expect the unexpected. so, you know, the things that he's done so far in some way shouldn't be surprising. so the idea that not acknowledging his loss and impeding the transition, we could expect that they're going to be some executive orders. and we could expect him to make changes in lots of sectors that we've seen that with respect to national defense. we've

. >> well, let's talk about what's the center of the election universe right now which is georgia, whichesults last friday. but the trump campaign has asked for a machine recount even as state elections officials need to start preparing for the u.s. senate runoffs which are january 5th. could the recount request complicate efforts to get ready for the runoff, do you think? >> i think the only thing that it complicates is just the exhaustion level that people are feeling in georgia, but other than that, i think, you know, it does essentially take people away from the other challenges at hand and that does seem to be part of the strategy here to essentially undermine the work, essentially, the bureaucracy that has to run elections in the united states. >> rachael cobb, always good to see you, thanks so much. we appreciate your time. >>> meantime -- >> thank you. >> -- cheaper to make, easier to store. just as effective as some of the other covid vaccines recently announced. it all sounds so good. is the news from the highly touted oxford trial as good as advertised? you're watching msnbc.

that includes bruce kennedy, owner of universal joint restaurant here in lawrencevill lawrenceville, georgia. they really prifbtivoted to a gl store when their restaurant had to shut down. >> i'm going to tell you, without the ppp, which was the loan that we all got, probably nobody would have made it. that was a big thing that the government did for us. you think, what happened in march and april, if that comes back again, tough. it'll be really rough for us and i don't know if we'd make it. >> he said he is concerned for himself and his friends, who own local businesses. if there were to be another set of restrictions or another lockdown because of the current surge in cases. it's a question who would survive that? the commonality among all the shop owners i talked to is they have a loyal customer base who understand, this year, more than ever, what it means to shop small. natasha chen, cnn, lawrenceville, georgia. >> catherine rampell is cnn economics commentator and "washington post" opinion columnist. she joins me, now, from new york. you look at the landscape. millions, unemployed. foo

dean of the university school of law says that while the counting continues there are three legal paths the trump campaign is pursuing. >> asking for a recount in wisconsin, if joe biden wins georgia he will ask for a recount they are. >> there's also the pennsylvania lawsuit challenging whether ballots can be accepted after election day. two lawsuits in michigan and georgia were resolved or dismissed. >> at this point none of these other lawsuits seem to be anything that will get to the supreme court or even get very far. >> tomorrow is the deadline for pennsylvania to receive mail-in ballots that were postmarked on election day. those will be held and processed separately due to the republican legal challenge. and in nevada the deadline to receive ellis postmarked on election day is november 10. >> the countdown continues. thank you so much. groups of protesters taking to the streets nationwide. looking at some right now in las vegas right now. a crowd of trump supporters waving flags and chanting outside of the clark county election center. and then there were some tense moments last night. some are upset that the state has been called for joe biden. >> they called it because i
