People could not recite the states, the margins. If you could take us on places where the vote is open, places that could conceivably together add up or on their own add up to 270 for joe biden. Lets do that. Lets take a quick look at that march to 270. We dont have alaska and we wont have that for a while. The presumption is that that goes to donald trump.

That preparation includes reaching out to National Guards, minneapolis officials and civil Rights Groups on the ground and all across the country.
