Its superior greasecleaning formula gets to work faster, making easy work of tough messes dawn takes care of tough grease, wherever it shows up. Scrub less, save more. With dawn good evening. Thank you for joining us. Tonight, two parallel tracks. While president elect biden is focusing on how to contain the pandemic and fix the economy, the man currently in the white house Still Holding on to baseless claims of election fraud, stoking more division, in an already divided nation. Its been exactly a month since election day. 30 days of accusations, lawsuits, and conspiracy theories. The environment has been created by this disinformation, misinformation, and frankly, flatout lies. Its creating a more and more dangerous situation, and i just felt in my gut something had to be said. Reporter Gabriel Sterling is a lifelong republican. Hes georgias voting implementation manager. Ten des after georgia certified joe biden as the surprise winner of this reliably red state, election still dominating sterlings life. Have you ever seen anything life this before . Would you have imagined youd be in this situation . Phone whos a government functionary ever imagines themselves in this position. Reporter what the facts clearly show biden won with significant leads in both electoral college, 306 to trumps 232. And the popular vote. Facts clear to most, except president donald trump, that is. This is probably the most fraudulent election that anyones ever seen. Reporter earlier this week, Gabriel Sterling had had enough. Its all gone too far. Reporter on tuesday mr. President. Reporter calling out President Trump. It looks like you likely lost the state of georgia. Stop inspiring people to commit potential acts of violence. Someones going to get hurt. Someones going to get shot. Someones going to get killed. I think the president s shown an ability to go after friend and foe alike if he feels there are people not serving his needs at that time. Reporter day after that fiery press conference, President Trump responded, though not in a way sterling had hoped. This may be the most important speech ive ever made. Reporter the president releasing a defiant speech on facebook where he continued to lie about election fraud. If we are right about the fraud, joe biden cant be president. He doubled down on the rhetoric, then put out a 46minute tape full of disinformation, misinformation, things that have been disproven by data repeatedly over and over again. When youre in a position of responsibility like that, your words matter. It is absolutely a race that is still close to call. Reporter rewinding 30 days, election night, several states were too close to call. The pandemic changed everything. As soon as the pandemic hit, states started trying to make it safer and easier for their citizens to vote. And that meant a lot of more absentee balloting, a lot more dropoff balloting, a lot more mailin balloting. It would take a longtime to count. Reporter in several swing states, republicanled legislatures passed rules that workers could not begin to count absentee and mailin ballots until election day, creating the delay. States like pennsylvania, wisconsin, and michigan. Unfortunately for the president , his decision to attack absentee voting, to attack mailin voting, actually hurt him. Because his voters made the decision to wait until election day to vote. Where joe bidens voters, weve seen now in exit polling, that after overwhelming majority of mailin ballots were democratic because they decided to vote early in order to be safe from covid19. Reporter despite these facts, within hours the president began lashing out as he saw his lead shrinking in some cases evaporating. This is a fraud on the American Public. This is an embarrassment to our country. What you got was what they called the red mirage. Because of republicans voted disproportionately on election day, they votes got counted first. So it looked like huge leads for trump. And because democrats voted disproportionately by mail, and those votes were counted later, you got this blue wave that came in later. Reporter thats what happened in michigan. Jocelyn benson, a democrat, is secretary of state. The president of the United States still insists that the vote in michigan was fraudulent. You say what this. The candidates can say whatever they want but the truth and the facts and the data remain the same. Reporter in his video trump pointed specifically to michigan. Biden won by more than 150,000 votes, making accusations of mysterious Early Morning vote dumps. This is michigan. At 6 31 in the morning, a vote dump of 149,772149,772149,772142 unexpectedly. Heres the fact. In absentee ballot centers, they convene throughout the day, they do their work throughout the day. 8 00 p. M. , theres one final collection of all those bat lots that came in on time. Those ballots have been verified centrally. The signatures are matched to make sure they can be counted. Simple math, delivered hours after the polls close. Thats how elections work. Theres nothing suspicious about this vote dump . No, its just the process working. Reporter the day after the election, protrump supporters rallied outside a Vote Counting Center in detroit demanding officials stop the count. If youre in an elevator with President Trump, had one floor to make your case what would you say . Tell the truth to the American Public about how this election was more secure and successful than ever before, and lets move on. Reporter four days after the election, on saturday, november 7th, pennsylvania moved to the win column for biden. Pushing him past 270 needed to win the electoral college. He was the president elect. Its time to put away the horse rhetoric. Reporter biden and running mate Kamala Harris immediately started assembling their team, a focus on the pandemic that was crippling the country. Today our work begins. It starts with doing Everything Possible to get the covid19 under control. So that we can reopen our businesses safely and sustainably. Reporter while trump refused to accept defeat, his legal team went to work, filing multiple lawsuits. These lawsuits will be brought starting on monday. From a legal standpoint, the trump effort to overturn this election has been a clown show. And thats a technical term. Seriously, because they have been all over the map. Theyve been summarily dismissed by judge after judge, republican judge, democratic judge, state judge, federal judge. And nearly all of them have said the same thing. Sometimes quite harshly. Theres no evidence to your claims. Reporter back in georgia, the state has confirmed and reconfirmed its results. We spent the last four weeks going through the letter of the law, last night at midnight the secretary of state recertified the president s request to do a full recount and certified the same results that president elect biden has won the state of georgia. Reporter yet the Trump Campaign continues to allege fraud, without evidence. The amount of misinformation is just its astronomical. None of it makes sense, for the most part. Its all debunked in 10 second or less, most of the time. Reporter by midnovember, trumps legal team doubling down with farfetched claims. The number of voter fraud cases in philadelphia could fill a library. Reporter with lawsuits failing, team trump began pushing for something thats much more antidemocratic, getting republican state legislatures to overturn the voters choice and appoint trumps electors instead of bidens. If it was happening in another country, you know exactly what youd call it. Youd call it a coup. Youd call it a banana republic. Youd call it anything but the United States of america. Its clear that most of the republicans recognize that joe biden has won this election. But given the posture of the current president , they are unwilling to stand up to him. Theyre unwilling to be on the receiving end of his fury. Reporter by the end of november, all the battleground states had certified their final results. While the president continues to look backwards, the president elect biden is well into planning for his presidency. I know times are tough. But i want you to know that help is on the way. Reporter put President Trumps actions over the last month challenging the validity of his election could have repercussions. Still, many believing in the power of the phrase we, the people. January 20th, every data point that is lined up that joe biden is going to be sworn in as the 46th president. And byron, i think its important to remember this. Were still going to be america. Amen. Bruised and battered, but still america. Coming up, 25 years after the death of superstar selena, why millions of fans still remember dreaming of you.

She had this amazing ability to be able to, you know, take you along with her on this song, you know, and make you really feel it. Reporter at just 22 years old, the young singer was already a dominating force. Spearheading a movement of tejano music and bringing it into the mainstream. The way she danced, it was effortless. She just was that one person and that one artist that just really had it all. Reporter the mexicanamerican from texas was on the brink of releasing her first english album, until that fateful day in march of 1995. She was murdered, shot by the manager of her fan club, once considered a close friend. 25 years later, fans continue to mourn. She wore this reporter as her family still vividly remembers their baby daughter and little sister. Its hard to believe that its been 25 years. Whats the impact of that kind of tragedy on this family . I dont think well ever get over it. You learn to live with it. But you never get over it. The only thank that we can do is just stay together, the family, and be able to do these great interviews that help her legacy continue. Reporter its a legacy thats blossomed for years. Selena became the inspiration behind some of the biggest names in the business. Youre it, girl reporter most notably, jennifer lopez. Anything for selena reporter who played selena in the 1997 movie about her life. Reporter and now, with the familys blessing, selenas story coming back. This time in a 20episode series on netflix. The iconic role this time played by kristin serajos from the walking dead. Its a choice some have criticized. Controversy reminiscent to when j. Lo stepped into selenas shoes more than 20 years ago. Here in the office in the front, people were protesting. How dare you pick a puerto rican . One thing i feel really bad about kristin, shes coming into not only having to portray selena, but also jennifer, you know, as well, so to speak. Some of the criticism is that she looks more like j. Lo than selena. You know, theres only one selena, john. You know, nobodys going to look exactly like selena or be exactly like selena. Reporter the family relentlessly keeping her memory alive. In 2016 and again this year, they launched a makeup line with mac cosmetics. It sold out in just hours. Selena is global. I knew that she was.

And her father says more will be coming soon. I own 50 songs of selena. What weve done is picked 10 songs out of 50. And video . I have about five dvds of live in concert of selena that the public has never seen. Reporter till then, she continues to break records. Her vinyl album called ones which was originally released in 2002 hit number one earlier this year. Why do you think she remains so popular to this very day . In selenas case, it was not just the artist but the person. They remember her personality. Reporter selena was unafraid to show her fans who she truly was. A strong young woman from texas proud of her black hair, her brown skin. So very proud of her mexicanamerican culture, never mind that she spoke very little spanish. What does she represent to the Latino Community . Especially latinas, young latina women . I remember when sel and i were growing up, there was never really representation of who we were. She embraced her heritage of where we come from, from mexico. She let everybody know, hey, its okay, i cant speak great spanish but i love where i come from and my heritage. But guess what . Im american, and this is who i am as well. Reporter its no surprise that today, a new generation of fans are emerging. 25 years since selenas death, those dearest to her, like her husband chris bettes, are still finding ways to move on without forgetting. Do you have a Favorite Song of hers . I have a handful for different reasons, on a personal level i would say dreaming of you. And theres nowhere else in the world id rather be than here in my room dreaming for the most part im glad, you know, that i had the chance to spend the time that i had with her. For all the success that shes still having today. What do you want the world to remember about your beautiful daughter, selena . That she was a beautiful human being. She was a giving person.
