Associated press for him include arizona and wisconsin. The count continues in nevada, georgia, with carolina and pennsylvania, with legal challenges filed in all four of those states by the Trump Campaign. And although alaska has not been declared, the president is leading toone for that states electoral votes. The magic number is 270. In the popular vote, 71 million americans cast votes for the bidenharris ticket, while 68 alien voted for the trumppentz team, compared to 66,000,004 Hillary Clinton and 63,000,004 donald trump in 2016. And good evening. We are going to hear your voices tonight about alexion 2020, and get updated results. Thest want to let you know, michigan secretary of state will hold a press conference very shortly, Jocelyn Benson, and we will go to that live. So we might interrupt our normal flow of events this evening. Brawner. Us is greta begin with states that have not been called on this evening at 8 00 p. M. Eastern. We begin with alaska. You mentioned this, peter, the president as a sizable lead over the former Vice President , with 53 reporting. Going on to georgia, the president of former Vice President arnett and neck. This hasnt been called. 99 reporting in georgia. In North Carolina, President Trump and joe biden also very, very close. 100 reporting, no one has called this yet, including the Associated Press. Ended pennsylvania, President Trump with a lead, but a narrow one, over joe biden. Moving onto michigan moving on to michigan, the president trailed they are, the race was called earlier, joe biden winning those electoral votes. In arizona, joe biden also declared the victor there this evening, 87 percent reporting. You can see the margin between the candidates. Wisconsin, where the president says he will ask for a recount, joe biden declared the victor. Peter joining us now is the Washington Bureau chief for the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel campaign saysnts they will call for a recount. In wisconsin, you have the right to do that if the margin is less then a percentage point. We dont have official results, so it remains to be seen what that margin is, if right now it is under a point. And then the president , it is laid out in state law that he has a timetable to meet in order to make that request. Underless the margin is. 25 of a percentage point, he would have to pay for the cost of the recount. Years ago infour his victory in wisconsin when jill stein, thirdparty candidate, demanded a recount and was given one, but had to pay 3 million to finance the recount. So there is a series of steps under state guidelines, and that process, a timeline will begin shortly. This point,t President Trumps campaign hasnt called for a recount . Coreg not if aig craig not officially. They said they will call for a recount. Peter four years ago, how much change was there from the recount . Craig very little. In that case, it was close to 23,000 votes. We have had other recount in experienceand the has been, like in most other states, it just changes a handful of votes on the margin, nothing approaching the number of votes that would need to be changed in order to affect the outcome of the election. Peter do you know offhand how many people in wisconsin posted by mail or voted in person . Were 1. 9together there million absentee ballots, that includes absentee ballots and mailin ballots, that were cast in the early voting period. Out of that 1. 9 million, a third of them were what we call in person early votes in that two weeks, and two thirds of them were vote by mail. Year, what happened this did the president underperform, did joe biden over perform . Ways, it was all most a replay of the election for years ago. We are not talking about a shift of a margin of 20,000 votes one way to 20,000 votes another way out of a total of 3 million votes. We saw patterns. I think the most significant differences were that while the president performed strongly in small towns and Rural Counties in wisconsin, as he did radically for years ago, he continued to lose ground in some suburban communities in southeast wisconsin, the Population Center of the state. The most significant trends there were the city of madison, a liberal, democratic city, and the suburbs around medicine, which are increasingly democratic, and the inner and outer suburbs of walkie. The democratic inner suburbs, which are getting bluer and bluer, and then you had this historically republican outer but were donald trump underperformed in 2016 and continued to underperform in 2020, lost a little more grounded some of those suburbs. Werened, those changes enough to shift the race against him. Peter and if the recount happens, mr. Gilbert, who is in charge of it, who conducts it . Craig the Wisconsin Elections commission, governed by a nonpartisan board, would conduct that. The candidate would have to pay for it. There is a process we have been through before, and it is a pretty straightforward process. It takes time, but it is pretty straightforward. Peter so recount can happen if it is under 1 . The state pays for if it is under a quarter percent. Craig exactly. Peter craig gilbert, thanks for being with us tonight as we look at Election Results. Tonight, 202 is the area code for our numbers. Supporters of President Trump, 202748, the number 8920. If you support joe biden, 202748891. And others, 202, 7 48, 8922 is the number to call.

Greta Senate Republicans headed into Election Night with the majority of 53 senators to 47 democrats in the senate. Lets look at the balance of power. There are five races to be called yet. There are 28 republicans, 45 democrats into independents. You need 51 for a majority. Lets look at some battleground races. Arizona gets a new senator. Mark kelly, democrat, astronaut, navy captain, husband of gabby giffords, former congresswoman. He will serve in the senate. In colorado, former Governor John Hickenlooper was declared victor over first term republican senator cory gardner. He lost his reelection bid. Ortexas, john cornyn, ford former leader of Senate Republicans, he wins another term over mj hager, the democratic challenger there. And in the state of georgia, david perdue has 52. 3 report to jon ossoff. Ap has not called this race yet. To countontinued ballots in georgia, there is worry david purdue could slip beneath the 50 threshold. If he does, he is headed to a runoff january 6. There was a special election in the state of georgia as well. Kelly loeffler, who was appointed to that seat, garnered 26. 2 of the vote. Democratic challenger is up 32. 5 in a lead over her. Doug collins, also in that race, the jungle primary, conceded last night. At this is headed toward a runoff january 5. And in the state of maine, Susan Collins today declared victory. She will be serving her fifth term. She was elected first in 1996. Serengeti and loses her challenge there. Sara girolina udeon loses her challenge there. Senator Lindsey Graham over Jamie Harrison. And in kentucky, not a battleground, senator mitch mcconnell, people were watching closely because of outside money given to amy mcgrath, the democratic challenger. 97 came from out of state. Peter lets hear your voices. Charlie is in utah, alabama on our support President Biden line. It was good. Joe biden is doing very well. Emerge he is going to victorious to the presidency, and i think he will do a good job peter charlie, why are you supporting Vice President biden . Because he is a good person. He is not like donald trump. Has not been, in the past four years since he has been there. So i am supporting joe biden and i think joe biden will be a better person for the presidency. Peter thank you for calling in. Samantha is in beverly hills, florida. Samantha, why do you support President Trump . He is ase i believe strong individual who will lead this nation to better things. He is stronger in every aspect. Peter you have got to hit the volume on your tv, samantha. I do believe he is better for the economy. He has done way more in four years on the economy than any other president has, during the eight years of obama. Peter what you think of what is going on at the potential legal actions the president s campaign is taking on behalf of states that havent been fully counted . I believe trump has every right and i hope he goes through with this and i hope they find out that the democrats are crooked, they are lying, cheating. I think they called arizona to soon. That was not right. Soon. Zona too that was not right. I think this thing was set up from the getgo, like nancy pelosi said, she would do everything to get trump out of office. They tried impeachment, blaming trump for the coronavirus, anything they can to get trump out of fear. People are looking more at the hatred of trump than what he can actually do for the United States. Peter thank you. A reminder to viewers, if you get on, turn down the volume on your tv. Otherwise you get a delay. You will be able to hear everything through your telephone. House, st. White johns Episcopal Church, the church of the president s and black lives matter plaza, as it was named earlier this year, you can see people gathering. This is just off of the white house. You can see people gathering, waiting for the election to be declared. That is a live picture. On our support Vice President biden line. A lot going on in georgia right now. Yes, all credit goes to Stacey Abrams for getting out the vote, rallying people to support at this is the way we will hopefully bring it to an end. Peter right now, it hasnt been declared and you have two senate races. Who did you vote for . Soff, iock and os believe both are really strong candidates who will turn the georgia economy around and help us get control of covid19, which unfortunately due to governor kemp, has ravaged across the state. Peter what do you doing atlanta . I am an actor. Peter commercials, tv, where could we see you . Film, television, and a lot of theaters in atlanta. I just filmed the Television Show bigger and it was filmed in atlanta. Peter was that at the Tyler Perry Studios . It was done by will packer, who did excellent job making sure everyone was safe.

I hope and pray he sticks with courtstakes us to the for everything. I believe he has done so much for us. Out ofhelped us get unemployment swamp and all of it is just ridiculous how the democrats have really in their themselves intolerance toward the American People and our votes. This is our right. And they are going to try to steal them from us just because, i dont even know, it is frustrating. I dont know how to word what i want to say. Peter so with the legal challenges going on, and if joe biden declares victory, will you consider him a legitimate president . No. Vona, that is michael in pennsylvania.

Peter we will go into that as soon as it happens. It is there on your screen. Onoy, hartford, connecticut our support Vice President biden line. Good evening, leroy. I am supporting joe biden. Is [inaudible] i believe in 90 of what joe biden says he is going to do. Fracking. Wont stop that was allied to the American People that was a lie to the American People. And compared to donald trump, he and i support joe biden 100 . Peter a reminder to our viewers, not only do you have to turn down the volume on your tv, dont use your speakerphone on your mobile phone. Otherwise, we get a tinny sound and it is not as clear. Here in theland suburbs of washington. Amanda, how was Election Night . Good evening. I voted absentee because i felt more comfortable with that due to the pandemic. It was a pretty seamless process. At my kitchenee table with my mom and stepfather. And by the time my stepfather took my ballot to the board of election, that was a week, and it a seamless process. The secretary of state in michigan, Jocelyn Benson, is live. Can anybody hear her . Sorry about that. Lansing, michigan, and Jocelyn Benson. If we can get the audio, we will go to it. We go to the caller in South Carolina on our support Vice President biden line. Hello, alicia. What did you want to say . Believe that biden should win this race because donald trump is not for the people. I believe that wholeheartedly. A friend in florida set a couple of weeks ago, a desperate man is a dangerous man. Donald trump does not care about the people in america. He does not care about people overall. It is all about him. We need something new. Peter were you surprised at how big a margin Lindsey GrahamJamie Harrison by . Yes. I was really surprised. Jamie harrison did a lot of work to get people to vote for him. He did a lot of work. And for Lindsey Graham to win like that . That was something else. Peter what do you doing darlington, South Carolina . Iona nail salon here in South Carolina. Own a nail salon here in South Carolina . Peter have you been able to reopen . I have been reopened for a while. Peter lets go to fayetteville, North Carolina. Is the first name clean . It is clean. Peter thanks for calling. You are on the President Trump support line. I am. This is the first time i have ever voted or participated in a president ial election, ever in my life. Black man and former special operations soldier in the army, i wholeheartedly believe that President Trump is not only for the people, but he is a christian man for god. And i dont see how people can legitimately say that they not bent morality and able to [inaudible] not an election about donkeys versus elephants. This is about morality versus evil. Peter he held a rally there. Did you attend . I was not able to, brother. I am a drug counselor. That takes up a lot of my time. Aside from that, i work in the gun industry. That takes a lot of time. But i would definitely be there in spirit. I heard it was a great turnout. Peter is he going to win North Carolina . I hope so. I pray so. I have been praying on it. I hope so, man. Clean, thanks for calling in from fayetteville, North Carolina. Carl is in cincinnati on the support Vice President biden line. What is on your mind . I want to say that donald trump, the things he says, the things that come out of his mouth, are totally insulting to this country. He is probably the worst president we have ever had. He is a disgrace to this country. He has disgraced the country itself just by the things he has said. And i hope that biden stops all the way through the electoral votes. Peter right now, the associate did press is projecting Vice President biden is within reach if one of these states that is still undeclared goes for him. Greta brawner.
