210,000 americans, and joe biden hoping to win election as the oldest president ever, people are very focused on the health of the two men at the top of the ticket. Which puts mike pence and Kamala Harris in the spotlight. Were anything to happen to either mr trump or mr biden, one of these two would be the next president of the United States. Normally wed say theyll be face to face tonight but they wont. Theyll be separated by 12 feet of stage and two panels of plexiglass. Thats what a debate looks like in the midst of a pandemic when the white house has become a hot bed of covid 19. Amanda renteria is it with us and the republican strategist ron christie. 0ften, sometimes, the Vice President ial candidates have to be attack dogs and sometimes do no harm. It is more third do no harm category.

More votes Electoral College votes than new york or the florida. In fa ct than new york or the florida. In fact second only to california. At the moment 64 of the vote is counted. And mr biden is ahead. That doesnt mean to say he has necessarily won at all, a lot more to be counted but that is not meant to be counted but that is not meant to happen in the republican firmment.

Hello, im katty kay in washington. Christian fraser is in london. Its 3pm here in washington the last polls closed 1a hours ago, and we still dont have a winner. Joe biden is now 32 Electoral College votes of winning the white house, while President Trump needs 58 to push him over the line. In the seven states the bbc is yet to project, the Biden Campaign is optimistic in enough of them that matter.

When i left here at 9am, these key states in the midwest, wisconsin and michigan, we re midwest, wisconsin and michigan, were in the red column, as was pennsylvania, heavily. But th
Good evening, everyone. Im kate bolduan in for erin burnett. People close to the president sounding the alarm, concerned about what they see as increasingly unhinged and delusional efforts to overturn the 2020 election.
