Best efforts to downplay it. We cannot, as a country, escape the simple math here. The facts are nearly 500,000 new cases were reported the past week. The nation is now averaging more than 70,000 new cases per day, 37 states look at that nap how many are red and orange seeing a surge. In the month of october, more than half of all states have reported their highest, that is record single day new infections so far in this pandemic. Lets begin with news, however, from Supreme Court because there is big news. The high court has decided a major decision with significant ramifications for this election, seven days away. Tell us what it is and what it means. Reporter right. Just before Amy Coney Barrett was sworn in last night, the Supreme Court issued an order and it rejected the democrats request to extend ballot deadlines in wisconsin. Wisconsin is that battleground state. The court divided 53. The conservatives basically say the federal court here was wrong to step in and change the stat
Headed. Normal life, which is what we want. We just want normal life. Like we had seven months ago, will fully resume. And next year well be the greatest economic power. We are going to be stronger than weve ever been before, and you see that all happening. It seems like he just doesnt care much about it. And the longer hes in charge, the more reckless he gets. Its enough. Its time to change. Here is why that is so important because yesterday the United States recorded more than 80,000 new cases of the coronavirus. That is the highest number weve seen since the pandemic began. We also saw another 996 deaths pushing the total close to 230,000. Of course, the president would much rather talk about the economy and the big jump in gdp. But heres what i need you to remember. The recordbreaking rise of 33 this quarter follows a recordbreaking drop of 31 last quarter. We lost more than 20 million jobs last spring. We are barely halfway back from where we were.

Win 306232 though they gave trump the 10 votes of New Hampshire and nevada instead of wisconsins. Still trafalgar said 306 trump won, 306. Then in the 2018 midterms in florida trafalgar was the only firm to show ron desantis show winning the governor race. As real clear politics put it, trafalgar predicted senate outcomes in missouri, north dakota, texas making it the most accurate pollster of the cycle among the firms that polled several races. Theyre not infallible. They didnt think that cinema would defeat mcsally in arizona and widely overestimated the margin of victory in georgia but the group is again predicting a trump victory. Even though most others predict a Biden Victory and many regard the methods as suspect. Currently cnn has biden already above the needed 270 and trump with 163. And the rest of the states too close to call. Trafalgar is saying 275 for trump, 216 for biden, 47 tossup. Are they on to something . Or smoking something . Heres what phillip bump of the Washingt

Mid a stark racial divide on display when Chris Jansing sat down with a group of older women in sarasota, florida. He has caused social unrest. Oh, that is not so. Oh, come on. He has encouraged white supremacists. Oh, no. Yes, he has. And he is no he hasnt. He is. He is not. He is a systemist racist institution that were dealing with. Dont use those terms. Yes i will use that term because racism is real. And i know that im not because im white and im proud of it. My people are still getting shot without provocation. Because theyre doing things wrong. Theyre not police eppi not s listening to the police. On november 3rd you chose between what you want. An the president who made racism and white supremacist the hallmark of his 2016 came and his presidency who labelled mexicans rapists an drug dealers but referred to neonazis in charlottesville as very fine people, who teargassed those taking part in a peaceful black lives matter for a photo on and told a hate drup to quote, stand back a
