Lot of votes to count there. Pueblo has 20 electoral votes up for grabs. The president has 52 of the vote right now compared to joe bidens 47 . And the race remains close in North Carolina, as well. President trump is in the lead here, with 50 bank account of the vote. Compared to joe bidens nearly 49 . North carolina, by the way, has 15 electoral votes and President Trump also slightly ahead at this point in georgia, with 96 of the vote counted. He leads with 50 of the vote compared to joe bidens 49 . Georgia has 16 electoral votes to offer now, earlier this afternoon both michigan and wisconsin were called for joe biden. Lets look now at the electoral vote total. Joe biden now has 264 of the 270 that he needs. Nevadas six could give him the white house, though. We have live coverage of the race for the white house. Our political reporter greg greg lee. Here we are a day after the election and the election remains unclear. Yes. With michigan and wisconsin going to biden his path to the presidency become mrs. Clear while President Trumps becomes more narrow. Lots of eyes on nevada, which you said that, could put biden over the top, but like you said, there are still several states on the board and a number of votes to be counted. In addition to the fact we are now stropping in strapping in for a series of legal challenges that could stretch is process. President trumps team plans to file for a recount in the state of wisconsin. The state rule allows for that if the final vote is reason 1 . The trump cam feign has filed lawsuits to stop vote counting in michigan and pennsylvania, claiming they have not had meaningful access to the tallying process, this after the president gave a speech in the wee hours of the morning, continuing to sew doubt in the electoral process. Here is what his personal attorney said today. We will not let them get away with it. They are not going to steel the election. The election gets decided by the people. We have not seen any examples of widespread fraud or voter fraud so far. If outwent bed before 3 00 a. M. You likely saw mr. Trump ahead in michigan and wisconsin. Former vicepresident joe biden closed the gap and took a lead, preparing for a legal fight, bidens campaign has begun collecting donations to counter the trump team in court. The former Vice President is in delaware watching the results come in. He gave a brief statement this afternoon it is clear that we are winning enough states to win the 270 electoral votes to win the presidency. I am not here to say we won, but i am here to report when the count is finished we believe we will be the winners biden also spoke about his ongoing theme of unity, saying if he wins he will work as hard for those that did not vote for him as those that did. Now to michigan and wisconsin, the two of the three states in 2 socalled blue wall that President Trump broke through in 2016 to lead him to victory. These are states both camps were focusing a lot on. Pennsylvania part of that group. It is likely we will be waiting a couple days for those results. Heather . Looks like we will be waiting a little longer. Greg lee, thank you so much. While the outcome remains undecided this afternoon, joe biden is ahead in the popular vote, breaking the record now for the most votes ever received by a president ial candidate in u. S. History. Lets go ahead and take a look at those numbers. As you can see here, joe biden has wrapped up more than 71 million votes. With these numbers, biden breaks the record set by his former runningmate, barack obama, during his president ial run in 2008. All right. More analysis on the president ial election. To do that we bring in david mccue win the Political Science professor from sonoma state university. Good to have you on as election day turns to election week here. Wisconsin and michigan now won by biden, the states the president won in 2016. Do you believe the clearest path for the presidency is through the southwest through arizona and nevada . Yes, that is really the pathway forward for him. He has to win nevada, he has too win arizona, to move forward to that 270 number. If he only wins arizona, he doesnt win nevada. If nevada goes to President Trump and pennsylvania goes to President Trump, we have the potential for a 264 sorry, 269269 tie that. Would be chaos, the worst thing possible out of all of this. But really, for joe biden it will come down to just a few thousand votes there in nevada and that will place a lot of pressure on pennsylvania and what we see coming out of the counts in philadelphia and areas around pittsburgh, as well. Yes. A lot of focus still on the count going on in the commonwealth of pennsylvania here. What do you see as the chances here for President Trump to be reelected to a second term . Obviously we are seeing it appears the strategy already is for the Trump Campaign and team to pretty pretty much litigate wherever they can in any states that are close. You know, what of these lawsuits and the legal challenges tell you about how the campaign kind of used the race at this point . So, there is the dual kind of messaging going on. The Trump Campaign wants counts to continue to go on in arizona and nevada, but they want to stop the counts for the legally cast ballots in michigan, wisconsin and other states that are leaning, they want to hold. That is not how it works. The ballots cast by november 3 get to be counted. Standing before the Supreme Court, going directly to the court to push this issue will be problematic. There is another element here. That is that the Trump Legal Team is not and allstar team. You dont have ben ginsburg, maybe the Top Republican election law expert in the country to work for george bush, you dont have him. And you dont have don mcgahn, your white house lawyer. Those two are superstars on election law that. Will hurt the Trump Legal Team and its argument. It will make political arguments not necessarily legal arguments. That hurts them for any court, state level or the Supreme Court itself. Yes. A part of the Trump Legal Team, of course. Giuliani , who spoke earlier today, it sounds as though some of the claims they will try to make in the legal challenges is that their observers were not allow ed to watch the ballots being counted in some of these states. What are some of the other claims you imagine they are go ing to make as they try to challenge some of the counting that is going on in states around the country . The paycheck argument is this. If you dont have ballots you cant count the ballots. That is the basic legal argument they will make in jurisdiction after jurisdiction. That will challenge not just states, but county registrars. It will place an inordinate amount of pressure on them. When you see in wayne county with outstanding ballots and the registrar there being faced with a deluge of supporters of the president what dont want them to count the ballots that have not been counted, that is also a reflection of state law drafted by Republican Legislature that said you will not count ballots that have been cast and come in absentee ballot until you have counted the election day ballots, and that exactly the process set forth. They knew that was going to happen, but, nonetheless, you still have to count all the ballots cast. That is legally prescribed. That is a state by state, and really, county by county issue. The thing to watch over the next couple of days is we do this thing devolve into a different area or aspects of counties, does it become that over a state level or federal level jurisdiction in those battles. That is where we want to see how this moves forward. All right. We will wait to see how it plays out in the coming days here. Political science professor david mccewan from sonoma state, always appreciate you coming on. Thank you. Thank you very much. Well, as we have been talking about, pennsylvania still very much at play this afternoon. It, of course, is one of the most hotly contested states in the cycle. Right now as you heard, President Trump does old a slight lead, but there are a lot of mailin ballots still to be counted. Taking another look at the current numbers there in the state of pennsylvania, President Trump has a 51 lead compared to joe bidens 47 . We have more now from the Pennsylvania Convention center there in philadelphia where the vote count continues to happen at this hour. What is latest that you can tell us in regards to the ongoing vote tally . Reporter Officials Say that 97 of precincts have counted here in philadelphia. President trump is facing a lawsuit in pennsylvania with mailin ballots coming the three days after the election, but instead, focusing on what is coming in here at the Convention Center. 97 of the precincts have reported and the ballot counts continue. Even though Voting Machines can count up to 10,000 ballots per hour, opening them up, verifying signatures , folding them the right way for scan, etc. , is what takes the longest. Half of the ballots in the city were cast by mail and the other half at the precincts. Also, mail will continue to come in through this friday. So, back here live at the Convention Center we have been monitoring a live stream of the process happening inside. Officials say it is unlikely we will get any updates before this time tomorrow. In philadelphia, back to you. Still going to be at least a few more hour, if not a few more days before all the counting is completed there in pennsylvania. Really appreciate it. Thank you. We turn now to the battle for congress. Republicans have picked up four seats in the house of representatives. As it stands in order to now democrats will keep the house and nancy pelosi will remain at the house speaker, but there may be fewer democrats. We are still waiting on results on 44 seats in the house. Control of the u. S. Senate is still up for grabs. Here is the breakdown as it stands at this hour. The gop has 48 senate seats and democrats have 47 including two independence that caucus with them. Victories include republicans mcconnell and Lindsey Graham who beat democratic challenges who raised hundreds of millions of dollars. Democrat and former astronaut mark kelly also won in the election last night, flipping the seat in arizona. He is married to gabby giffords, the former congresswoman that survived an assassination attempt in 2011. A hotly contested race here in the bay area. A very fight race to determine who will become the next mayor of the city of vallejo. The City Council MemberRobert Mcconnell is leading over hakeem brown. Mcconnell is 41 . Brown is 38 . This race got a lot of attention last month flowing revelations brown had a criminal history including convictions for Domestic Abuse but, again, with 100 of the precincts reporting it looks like mcconnell will become the next mayor of the city of vallejo.

What we are learning about the number of new cases statewide, and which bay area county is in jeopardy of moving backward in the state color tiered reopening system. Also, we are following some developing news in regards to the coronavirus and the 49ers. The team has now shut down their practice facility because of covid19. What we know about a possible outbreak and the impact on the teams game which is set for tomorrow. And the bay area weather, lots of sunshine today. Another parm day and no major changes tomorrow. But by friday we are expecting changes. A major cool down and possibly showers. More on the forecast coming up. We are seeing covid trends up here in california, but they are modest, steady, we are watching them closely and not the same as many of the states throughout the nation. As of today, california has more than 940,000 confirmed covid19 cases since the start of the pandemic and over 17,000 deaths related to the virus the San Francisco 49ers announced today that a player has now tested positive for covid19 the team is scheduled to play the packers tomorrow night at levi stadium. Now the latest developments, boy, another serious blow to the team , jason. Yes, the 49ers have been plagued, heather, by injuries all season long. Now the most recent setback in which the wide receiver kendrick borne tested positive for the coronavirus. It forced the 49ers to immediately shut shut down the practice facility at levis stadium. No players on the field there. Just the tent pavilions and exercise equipment used in outdoor workouts. As for bjorn who practiced with the team yesterday afternoon, number 84, his agent spoke with the san jose americary news and says he is doing fine, symptomfree and isolating at home. No other 49er players have tested positive for covid19. The team is doing Contact Tracing to identify if any other players need to quarantine, along with bjorn. You saw the players around him at practice yesterday. The 49ers have a game tomorrow night, which, you know, it is with the Green Bay Packers. As of right now it is a go. That would mean the injury and now coviddepleted 49ers will field the team without three of the top four wide receivers. I asked grant cohen of Sports Illustrated what the game plan may be. This may be what you have to do during covid times, play with what you have. I know trent taylor is second option that. Is where they are at. The packers boarded a flight about two hours ago bound for the area. They kickoff tomorrow at 5 15 at levis. Heather, we should say that two Green Bay Packers were not on that flight because they also tested positive earlier this week for covid19, so, the nfl is trying to manage this situation as best they can. There is a lot of money at stake. They want to play the game. They dont want to have to move it, but if more players end up testing positive or the Contact Tracing leads to information they dont like, they could change the game time and most likely what they have been doing, it could be a second monday night game. As of now that is not happening. Thursday night football tomorrow night on fox 2 is a go. Yes. Players en route. Jason appelbaum, thank you. We will see what happens. All right. The bay area weather, another sunny and warm day out there across the region. Kind of pleasant once again with a lot of 70s.
