President Donald Trump is urging Republican voters in north Georgia to turn out and vote in Tuesday’s special election that will determine which party controls the Senate.
Trump says “the stakes in this election could not be higher” as he warns a boisterous crowd of several thousand supporters about Democrats winning control of the Senate. The crowd shouted back, “Fight for Trump.”

The presidential inauguration is set to be different from the past due to COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.
For weeks, Joe Biden s transition team prepared for festivities that will be mostly virtual. Here are some ways the inauguration will be different:
1. OATHS
Joe Biden and Kamala Harris aim to take their oaths of office outside the U.S. Capitol building as inauguration planners seek to craft an event that captures the traditional grandeur of the historic ceremony while complying with COVID-19 protocols.
2. ATTENDANCE
The event will only have about 1,000 people in attendance. Normally, 200,000 tickets are distributed to members of Congress for their constituents.
