Well a rally for President Trump<\/a> in the north bay has led to some tense moments between Trump Supporters<\/a> and primarily African American<\/a> Community Members<\/a> in marine city. Yesterday we told you about this caravan of vehicles that were flying flags and honking horns it started in santa rosa on sunday and pastor nevado eventually stopping at the Gateway Shopping Center<\/a> in marine city. Warren county sheriff says the group of 250 to 350 cars flying flags and honking horns led to scores of concern calls mostly from African American<\/a> residents. It was everything from you know 4 more years 4 more years. To you know, cussing out folks you know, you saying give you the middle finger. Using the n word. Just inciting. You know what what they probably was looking for was to was get underneath peoples skin and African American<\/a>s in our group. So theres no way that we would have been doing that kind of thing.

Yeah, thats right daria james we are some businesses boarded up here in walnut creek can see right next to me all boarded up its not every business you can see but a lot of them here at broadway plaza, the outdoor shopping area in walnut creek in thats because theyre preparing for what could be civil unrest from the Election Results<\/a> take a look though at video i just shot this morning about an hour ago ive already seen Walnut Creek Police<\/a> on high alert you can see. Heavy Police Presence<\/a> here at broadway plaza, several police cars pulled up here after a person was seen trying to break in turned out to be a homeless person who said they tried getting into the bathroom goes to show you though how ready police archers fund any thefts or violence here the last time i saw shops boarded up in walnut creek was during the protests earlier this year. And weve seen it all over the bay area and country while many of them, were peaceful there were crowds that came out and cause a lot of damage to stores in the area know again across the bay area look at video from San Francisco<\/a> businesses are boarded up there as well since theres fear the Election Results<\/a> could bring more protests and violence. We talked with San Francisco<\/a> chamber of commerce j chang about why businesses are taking these precautions. Motions are running high. Its been a difficult year. Its been a difficult election season. And were afraid that things go the wrong way or people are unhappy with the results that they may take it out on businesses and windows each window smashed windows is usually thousands of dollars and if you have been paying rent for the last 9 months or you have been getting income for the last 9 months a couple 1000 is what well send you over the class. And these businesses are already struggling now. People believe that no matter who wins this election theres going to be civil unrest on either side of the aisle. In the meantime businesses are bracing for the aftermath and police are on high alert for now reporting live in walnut creek Sarah Stinson<\/a> back to you thank you sarah. Well time now is 5. 33. Lets turn our attention now to the National Landscape<\/a> for President Trump<\/a> we understand is going to be spending. Election day inside the white house as he waits for the results to come in and this morning were joined live with Washington Dc Bureau<\/a> reporter raquel martin. Joining us live as you can see there and ive actually heard to that hes actually going to have some kind of a larger event there are gathering at the white house. Good morning and happy election day yes thats what were hearing at this point but nothing confirmed just yet nothing on the president s schedule. We got it late last night and only thing on theyre actually at the fact that he is heading down to virginia into the Republican National<\/a> committee building. So were going to wait and see what happens at the white house tonight. So far we do know that the president will be watching the polls come in but this is definitely a much slower pace for the president than what weve seen in the last few days just in 3 days. Hes had 14 rallies and he hit 4 key battleground just yesterday that includes pennsylvania, michigan, wisconsin, North Carolina<\/a>. Hes definitely trying to galvanize his voters to come out today and get their ballots casted really close that gap that we see between him and joe biden thats played out of the last few months you mentioned pennsylvania that of course one of the big battleground states were watching could very well decide. The election just last night the president repeatedly warned of potential cheating. Theyre in pennsylvania, i guess in an effort to try and eyes any sort of early vote count that may come in and take away an early lead, i dont what do you make of of his line there. Well that just shows you how tight important the race in pennsylvania is this issue is over approximately 100,000 absentee ballots there the president definitely eager to try and get those electoral votes in him and joe biden have really been hitting the state of pennsylvania, hard in the last few days so the president now is threatening some legal action so all eyes are definitely going to be pennsylvania, the next coming days to see exactly who might be the winner and if this is going to be a tight race. Today well be looking out to see if a lot of people come to the polls today rather than just submitting their ballots that can definitely benefit the but expect on this to play out in a much longer way if this race is tight in especially if the president does not come out on top and the president actually said that if he doesnt come on top and we have an eye and an hout from pennsylvania that there could be physical violence. He brought that up and weve rock hill. Here in the bay area and Southern California<\/a> stores boarded up weve been you know, reporting that live this morning have you seen any of that in the dc area where you know youre shopping areas are boarded up in anticipation of problems. Well actually the building that im in right now its completely boarded up and if you go around you would see building after building with boards across their window display and the white house itself is fenced off something that we saw during a rally is over george floyd this summer there has been a nonscalable fans that even if the even taller than what we see before put around the perimeter of the white house to enclose them in some sort of safety. But yes, there is concern about on potential violence. I know there has been Election Officials<\/a> all over the saying that they are going to take further precautions to ensure a safe but people need to be cognizant and aware as they move forward to the polls and aware that it does historically take time for especially pennsylvania and other states to come in thats not unusual or a sign of irregularity thanks so much well check in with you later. Time now 5. 37 and dont forget to keep to kron 4 all day not only will we have complete election. Coverage throughout our morning broadcast here but as the results start to come in. Were going to give you nonstop coverage beginning at 3 oclock this afternoon. Weve got live reports from across the country and across the bay areas were tracking not only National Issues<\/a> like the president ial race, but also our local propositions as well and well have analysis with political keep it to kron 4 got lots of coverage for you throughout the not even over this morning, james, still ahead on the kron 4 morning news. Were going to talk more about the record voter turnout expected in San Francisco<\/a> and how Elections Officials<\/a> are planning to deal with it. And after the break Santa Clara County<\/a> reaches a milestone in its battle against the coronavirus. And were back at 5. 41 in the south bay Santa Clara County<\/a> has announced a significant milestone in its fight against covid19. The county tested more than 1 Million People<\/a> for coronavirus thats about half the countys population. Santa clara county now averaging about 7,008 1000 tests per day and Officials Say<\/a> positive case numbers may rise, but testing does help prevent outbreaks. Whats important. Yes we may find and we do find more cases but then were able to educate those people that are infected and to keep them safe and others around them safe until they are no longer infectious. The county currently has a less than 2 positivity rate. And while officials are happy about that low number they are still warning people to wear masks, socially distance and of course get tested if theyre feeling any symptoms at all or have been exposed to anybody who has turned out to have coronavirus. Well of course a lot of people going to be out and about today as it is election day tuesday. We are seeing a bit more fog this morning for areas like San Francisco<\/a> and oakland then weve got used to lately but dont care too much that the part the picture and skies will clear out.

Were keeping an eye on all the states across the country now as millions of people are lining up and heading to the polls on this president ial election day this was the scene near harrisburg pennsylvania earlier this morning. And you can see just how long those lines were at the start well see how they continue to grow throughout the day today we already saw historic early turnout for the early vote. Both campaigns are fighting hard to win the minds of any undecided voters that may still be out there were going to keep an eye on polling places again all across the country including here in the bay area for another coats yep and fuzzy had son, yeah, they were the mass to avoid an o so they stay warm too. Its like a scarf in the bay area weve got great could see a historic turnout. This kron fours dan kerman reports from the citys outdoor Voting Center<\/a> at civic center plaza. So far a record 322,000 ballots have been filled out and are now being processed at San Francisco<\/a>s department of elections. That 62 of registered voters. Through that theres ever been a point where weve had as many votes cast before election day. With more ballots being dropped off monday and those voting in person on election day Election Officials<\/a> are expecting a turnout in the 80 percentile, but its unclear if it will break a record. But in 1956 in 1960 those are the highest election turnouts that i can find those are 86 so really you know were looking at ideally something between the 8186 and hopefully something beyond 86 for tomorrow monday voters were still dropping off mail in ballots in person, im not totally comfortable mailing it since. All the issues ive heard with with the u. S. Post office so i just feel more comfortable dropping it off so i can track it in. It just seemed easier and it got me out of the house too. For many this is the most important election of their lifetime election is very important to be because you know its about time we did some voting and we get the right thing we need someone in there who is going to take care of job when the polls close at a tuesday evening. Those 300,000 ballots received prior to monday morning. Well be the first to be tabulated with early results coming by 8. 45. And while the number will be significant. Election Officials Say<\/a> it wont be final because the rule still be so many more ballots to count. Election Officials Say<\/a> they will count mail in ballots received after election day. But they must have that tuesday postmark. In San Francisco<\/a>. Dan kerman kron 4 news. Well in the south bay Santa Clara County<\/a> is reporting almost 2 thirds of its registered voters. That have cast their ballots now either by mail or in person thats where those numbers are coming in from the early voting means that people doing all the processing and counting of these ballots have had a bit of a head start and that should help registrar of the registrar there make available some significant results by the time those polls close at 08 00pm today. Where now they say theyre aware of what voting means to people to leave now. I was always an honor when i was started out in 18 years old now. They got away from now people start to realize how important voting is well theres a very large amount of divisiveness and we want to make sure that our voices are heard. And its not clear its a very close election right and its very divided so its really important and we get out and vote. Voting at the last minute you must be in line no later than 08 00pm dont forget. 5. 48 is the time right now we get to bed by 8. I mean im just thinking because its going to be long day tomorrow were going to be on extra early to let you know about the election returns to stay tuned for that. Lets get over to the Weather Center<\/a> find out what the weathers going to be like on this election day guys, yeah, i know have kron on my tv tonight as im in bed subliminally soak in all the numbers in and then probably waking up tomorrow morning as most of you to some more results as for this morning, no results just yet but as you plan to get to the polls you can plan on some good weather to be doing so were starting foggy and cool this blanket of fog pretty visible from Berkeley Hills<\/a> cam right here and a little bit of a more intrusion with this fog the mist this morning than what weve seen the past few mornings so were working our way back into more of a marine influence today. Thats likely going to be held up into tomorrow and thursday to after that its not going to be found so much youre seeing drifting across the bay. But rather some clouds as we see a big weather switch up just days away. We saw weak frontal boundary push through yesterday helping to nudge the High Pressure<\/a> ridge out thats why temperatures today are mostly falling from the 80s to our 70s inland. Thats just nicer weather to be waiting in the polls for inland valleys off to worry about the heat of the afternoon so much. Its just the afternoon comfort today with highs in the 70s. Today tomorrow thursday remaining dry, we will be seeing this nice trend of weather were starting today holding up for a few days and then its downhill we go into the 60s for warmest of highs come friday saturday and sunday friday you saw there on futurecast offering up a few showers saturday, we drive back out and then sunday also offering up the opportunity of a shower or 2 now when i say showers i mean a sparse isolated shower. Thats probably not going to result in much for the bay area this system really losing out on its team by the time it reaches us but for the Sierra Nevada<\/a> you notice that blue at the far side your screen over there. That is snowfall thats going to start to build the snow pack into the winter season as long as temperatures remain fairly cool. So this is good news because has been so dry not just for the bay, but also for the sierra we need to start seeing this winter precipitation weve seen expanding drought over the past of the couple of months now so this is exactly what we need to be getting into but as for election day to day weather Still Holding<\/a> up on the comfortable though so Mother Nature<\/a> is actually really playing in our favor here giving us nice weather for the day today and then also giving us what we need also giving us what we need this weekend which is tha rain and that cooler weather 60s at the coast. Well 70s for bayside in inland areas a very comfortable day in the south bay definitely more so than yesterday when you were toasting in those upper 80s in some spots. We were also well into the upper 80s for the tri valley today, its only 70s union city and hayward in the low 70s today, oakland you are at 80 yesterday today only 70 degrees richmond and berkeley back into the upper 60s and only one 80 left in this forecast and thats for you in vacaville 80 degrees fairfield in antioch each at 78 degrees for your highs today. Temperatures over into sonoma and marin counties, mostly 70s, but a few 60s right along the coastline, a look ahead at your next 7 days does show you that today tomorrow and thursday remain, nice and comfortable. These are some of your most comfortable days of the forecast, so id say enjoy them and especially enjoyed today in line at the polls friday saturday and sunday the weekend ahead looks to be quite brisk actually well see some winds picking up that potential of some isolated showers here and there possible friday and then again on sunday and saturday, even though the return of sunshine remaining pretty chilly out there, definitely feeling like fall. Robin. Thank you john we dont have any major hot spots right now, but the morning commute, its really picking up and we have some heavier traffic rolling into San Francisco<\/a>.
