Including charges of murder. Thanks for joining us. We begin in the u. S. , where the counting of votes is still underway, and we still do not know who will be the next president of the United States. Joe biden has the clearest path to victory in the Electoral College. Donald trump still has a path, but it is more of an uphill battle. Votes are still being tabulated in five key states, arizona, nevada, pennsylvania, georgia, and north carolina. Here are the current totals. Biden has 250 three votes. The Associated Press has called arizona for biden, which would bring his total to 264, just six votes from the 270 needed to win. Donald trumps current count is 213 or 214 with one vote from maine called by the ap but not other outlets. Those of us betting on results on Election Night were certainly wrong. It is looking like this is going to drag on a bit longer. It is thursday. It is still Election Night. It may be we may be closer than we think to the end of phase one because we could get

That is whats creating the false atmosphere of legitimacy to his claim. Let me go to Kristen Welker right now who has a little more insight into the counting in pennsylvania. Kristen . Just to pick up on the point chuck was making im hearing from an election official in pennsylvania who says this. Erie has 47 more to count and philadelphia has 300,000 mailins. Mailins were 70 up in the democratic favor. This person says this is far from over. The need to respond in real time. To make that point and to drill down on some of the broad numbers that chuck just laid out. And, again, i would just underscore the fact that this is part of why joe biden came out first. This is why he gave the message that he gave. He of course gave this rallying cry to his supporters saying he believes they are still on track to win the white house. But he concluded his remarks by saying, this race is not over, and its not up to President Trump to declare victory. Its not up to me to determine whos won this rac

Watch the washington journal 7 00 eastern. Join with your phone calls, texts, and tweets. Host we are joined by scott long with the hill newspaper, covering congress for quite some time. You have a lameduck session coming in here shortly in the u. S. But before we get to the next congress, tell us what the next few weeks or month looks like on the u. S. House side in particular. Guest the house of representatives will come back to washington after this historic election to hold their leadership elections. It looks like democrats are moving forward with their leadership elections next week. That favors nancy pelosi. The quicker the election, the less time there is for their to build any momentum in opposition against her. Nowe is some chatter right from moderates who are just crumpled about the number of seats that have been lost by democrats in a very surprising fashion.
