house correspondent committee has many signs let's turn to natasha got a name who is in atlanta georgia natasha apart from the close presidential vote that there's a senate rerun there to. there is i want to mention for a 2nd day trump's supporters gathered at the capitol here in atlanta at one point chanting that quote the gates of hell will not prevail and saying that the election had been stolen from trump due to voter fraud yet as many of us already know not a single case credible allegation of voter fraud has surfaced just yet but it does give you an indication of the divisiveness that remains in georgia and across the country while many americans no matter where you fall on the political spectrum have expressed a fatigue over what was a very bitter election cycle georgians will continue to be in this election cycle because on january 5th they will head to the polls there's a runoff for the 2 senate seats by state law you have to have a majority of the vote if you don't you go to a runoff runoff both of the senate seats are currently held up by republicans so there is a real scramb

in atlanta georgia. which is still ongoing that the council still coming and it's too close to call. clearly from what we can see behind the posses already stopped him. absolutely 7 plus hours of for now the honking and start screaming dancing used here comes another way listen i think the senate democratic candidate in georgia best in capsulated the mood among biden supporters when he said change is having a ga in georgia is part of the change coming to america this is a state that for 28 years had not thrown its support behind a democratic presidential candidate biden is now leading leading trump here by about 7500 so that is a very significant this is one of those elections where i think a lot of people given its historic nature away from a lot harris the vice president elect are going to remember what they were doing and how they felt when they heard the news and how in the large i want to hear from you what were you doing and how did you feel when you heard the news well i mean i woke up like a few

and perhaps tipping the balance of power for the government many thanks but natasha in atlanta georgia we can cross to rob reynolds who joins us now live from los angeles which is of course coming to this home state bring us up to date with the reaction there. well i think the reaction was summed up pretty well by governor gavin newsom who tweeted a photograph of him selfe and camila harris from earlier days sitting on a couch casually discussing something and laughing and the caption that the governor put on it was california is so so proud today of course that's that's true of many many people in california which voted overwhelmingly for the by harris ticket there are some of course in this state who supported president trump as well and if you can hear the king of horns if that's audible through my microphone that's actually a group of soccer owners down in the street below us who are waving from from the banners from their trucks so in general this is a big day for california since the new vice president elect is a native daughter of the bay area growing up in oakland california th

him to pass a call hane who's in philadelphia natasha got him a standing by for us in atlanta georgia and of course there's rob reynolds will join him from los angeles let's begin with mike hanna we are expected to hear from president elect joe biden what is the atmosphere like where you are. very much a celebrate 3 atmosphere you can see the crowd behind me here and beyond that is the main in reno where there are hundreds of motor vehicles parked in what is supposed to be a socially distant celebration not a joe biden's will be here we expecting to hear him begin to speak shortly he will be preceded by his running mate and vice president elect harris she'll be speaking 1st we understand followed by joe biden he will be outlining for the 1st time as president elect the agenda that he used going to attempt to impose in the years to come and also the 1st steps he's going to be taking in terms of building up a transitional trust team and what we do know already the absolute priority for joe biden you stated that you're in the campaign you stated that in recent days and we expect to hear

for new york let's go to atlanta now georgia and we can join al-jazeera is the tasha good name there and georgia has turned out. georgia has turned out to be a very key state there really a way for same difference tell us what's going on. yeah georgia has been a republican stronghold and right now biden is leading by about 7200 votes which is considered pretty monumental when you consider that the state's 16 electoral college votes have not gone to a democratic presidential candidate since 1992 you also have 2 very tight senate races that are so close they're going to be going to a runoff in january and the outcome of those races could affect the knowledge of power in government if the democrats people consider it unlikely but if they do happen to pick up these 2 seats democrats would have complete control of the government freedom park in midtown atlanta where there is a big celebration going on and with me is abby ed line she is 18 years old we spotted deer in the crowd because of this sign this is the 1st time she has voted in a presidential election and she was in gauged abbi tel

some pretty strong protests going on in other cities including atlanta georgia which is of course a traditionally red state and the race that was so tight that. all being recounted as people who voted for trump came out and saying that they will stand with the president and fight. back because joe biden has to 90 votes with 214 but a concession from trump not on the horizon for the moment he says he's going to take it to cool for the vote but here biden's group has to prove to the victory. what's cross live now to new york and to. bring us up to speed on what those details coming out from pennsylvania all of that helped bring joe biden apart a victory. well as the recount continues in pennsylvania joe biden is very solidly ahead that is why u.s. mainstream media outlets decided to call pennsylvania for biden giving him the 20 electoral votes and that makes him the clear projected winner of the presidential election and at this point joe biden has declared victory and we've got a statement from joe biden declaring victory this is what we've heard. america i'm on it that you've chosen me to lead a

in atlanta georgia where the numbers of still being crunched bring us up to date. yours is really a microcosm of divided electorate in this country as the months and the final tally in georgia has yet to be announced at last count it appeared that biden had now edged past by more than 9000 votes secretary of state has already said because the margin between the 2 candidates is so small less than half a percent. as of yesterday there would be a recount and you know this is something that is quite momentous when you consider that for 28 years. the republican presidential candidate in this state had been supported so 192 was the last time that george and dave there are 16 electoral votes to a democratic presidential candidate in 26. trump one in the state of georgia by 5 percent so the margin between the 2 candidates is quite close the 2 senate seats here in georgia razor thin margin that's why georgians will return to the polls in january for a runoff to determine whether the democrats or the republicans will pick up additional senate seats put a lot of discussion by

i remember meeting with a black businessman from atlanta georgia who said he worked with dr. king. i said what did you do? he said my father in short dr. king's cars. i was waiting for the other shoe to drop. the point is each class was saying the same words, but they mean different things. we have to be clear from the beginning, if you're going to risk your life and raise money and do all those things to elect those people, that is understood, one of those concerns? what is that agenda? >> i would say with respect to the election aspect, i heard a young minister on some national radio program and he was asked whether he was going to vote on that. i guess he was in his thirties. he said he had decided if the whether he was going to vote because people have been betrayed with elections in the past. therefore, he was going to keep organizing and the street. i just wanted to say to him how foolish that sounds. because you can do both. you have to do both. there's no point sitting around and leading the big house go to somebody who is definitely going to keep them from organizing. who'

larry in atlanta, georgia. those are the divisions thatjoe biden says he will try and heal after this very contentious election. it is going to be difficult for him. i think every time we cover a us election, we hear the winning candidates talk about unifying the country, it is one thing to say to do it, it's quite another to do it and it feels to me like that has been progressing election by—election for some cycles. yeah, the data is there because back in 2000, only about a third of all americans thought it really mattered he was the next president, ie who won between al gore and george bush and now we are at 85% that they get matters. you are right in what it looks like it's happening. let us look at how the papers and news websites around the world have reacted to the news that joe biden is projected to win this election. we will start in america where the home pages of media outlets are splashed with the news. the new york times reflects on how kamala harris will be the first ever female vice president.

joe: you're down there in atlanta, georgia. what are you watching tonight as the votes come in? conor: fulton county is supposed to release a bunch of votes by 9:00, and i think that will show if biden can cut the deficit he is facing in georgia. these boats still out in georgia are predominantly male and votes that are very democratic. --predominantly male-in predominantly mail-in votes. romaine: when you go county by county, there still seems to be a pretty stark divide in this country about the direction of politics and political ideology. do you think there is a way forward where that either gets rectified or maybe gets amplified? conor: what is interesting to me is we have had this narrative of growing divides for race and gender and rural and urban and we are starting to see those compressed somewhat. we saw the weakness for democrats in latino voters in south florida and south texas. i saw a republicans picked up about a dozen women members of the house. after having very few women after 2018, they are kind of filling their female bench up. we are starting to see some of

we will start with atlanta, georgia on the independent line. good morning. caller: good morning. i'm an african-american. i'm neither a republican or democrat, i can think on my own. -- most blackarty people vote democrat. biden is. -- joe biden is the biggest racist there is. he had friends that were kkk, segregationists. he said of a group of black kids, you are not black unless you vote for him. he said we all think alike. how can you call donald trump are racist when joe biden is? even if you look up his racial he is in early alzheimer's. host: go ahead and respond. guest: a couple of things. i think when i talk about comparison, even what you are raising around by then, you are talking about 20 years ago. i can give you examples around donald trump a couple of weeks ago for aligning himself with the proud boys, who he said to stand down and stand back, which is known by even the fbi as a white supremacist group. being a woman who has done work social groups, it is a problem. donald trump has a consistent long history around discrimination, including in his own properties. do

the bbc‘s larry madowo has been speaking to supporters of president trump in atlanta, georgia. i've been here all afternoon at a protest by supporters of president trump who feel the election was stolen from them. i've got stacy with me, why were you here? i was here to support president trump. just based off all of his policies and procedures that he has put into place. whether we win or lose i want to show our support. do you believejoe biden won this election? i believe that's what it shows at this point. and if he wins by honest integrity, then i am all for it, because i will support whoever the president is. why do you like president donald trump? i like president trump because, well, actually, i've been a democrat my entire life. i'm even a registered democrat now. three or four months ago, i saw something in the news that alarmed me. and so i started doing the research myself. and i have a family of interracial family with both blacks and latinos, and i adore my family and when i dug, what i saw was more suppression from joe biden than trump. what did you see in the news

. >> reporter: black lives activist and writer cherrell brown is based in atlanta, georgia, where politician stacy abrams is credited with delivering hundreds of thousands of votes for the democratic party. >> there will be a number of articles that praise abrams, that praise black and brown voters, but whether that translates into actual material benefits for those same communities is still the question. >> reporter: brown recently wrote an article for "essence gazine," where she argues biden's proposals for addressing anti-black state violence aren't radical enough. >> the right has done this really wonderful job, actually, of painting president elect biden and vice president elect kamala as this very anti-cop, socialist ticket. but nothing could be further from the truth. biden and harris both support giving more money to police for things like police training around anti-bias or to diversify the force. >> reporter: according to the american election eve poll 2020, which surveyed more than 15,000 registered voters, black voters named discrimination and racial justice as the second most im

be in atlanta georgia she's a political science professor at emory university good to have you with us thank you very much indeed for joining us one of the things that he repeatedly beginning to come up you know is the fact that it appears to have been a misstep by donald trump to have discouraged his supporters from taking part in mail in voting and has because he has undermined the idea of mail in voting what is your opinion of that do you think that this has been something that essentially has turned the election around for him. so i think there are 2 parts to that question 1st yes it was a strategic misstep and in hindsight i'm sure republicans will rethink their efforts to besmirch mail and voting processes but there was the larger issue of trying to claim that mail in voting was fraudulent thankfully voter fraud while not completely not existed in the united states is so small that it usually doesn't affect the outcome of elections and for president trump to without evidence make these claims continually to misinterpret data to you know blow up and hyperbola isolated incidences o

let's go to georgia. the bbc‘s larry madowo in atlanta, georgia. larry, same question i give to eve ryo ne larry, same question i give to everyone when i first see them. what is the latest with the count? the latest with the count? the latest with the count is that president trump's lead has essentially been slimming throughout the day and now his lead overjoe biden in the state of georgia is about 3400 vote. there are maybe just about 30,000 or so votes left to count —— 3400 votes. so razor thin. that is why donald jr, razor thin. that is why donald jr, the president's son, has been holding a press conference, charging up the troops, claiming widespread voter fraud even though there is no evidence. the reason why president trump's lead in georgia appears to be slimming is because he actively encouraged his supporters not to vote by mail, to show up by election day. the are only being counted after the election day votes were counted and as that has been coming in, more ofjoe biden's supporters' votes have been added to the tally, and that is w

at the scene right now in atlanta, georgia. those who are protesting on behalf of the president of the united states and that the count must go on. the count in georgia seems to be official right now, but the governor himself is still open to another one that would ratify that ratification over my level of comprehension here, but not over frank luntz. he wants the county to continue. when is it a zero sum mission. >> it doesn't matter in georgia if it doesn't happen in pennsylvania. it doesn't matter in arizona if it doesn't happen in wisconsin. the president has to make a decision soon. do you want to have an impact on the georgia senate races. that's important right now. whoever wins the races, determines policy not just for the next election, but potentially for a generation beyond. are we going to add two new states, are we going to pack the courts? if he depresses georgia's turnout they could give the senate to the democrats. he has to weigh that on how to proceed. neil: is your polling and information, that his fight in g

how rest must it is still a pandemic that and also we also saw in parallel print trump protests in atlanta georgia which is of course proved to be a battleground state quite unexpectedly given it's been republican for many years but not that they are the people who voted probably for washington is off to a strong democratic hold only 5 percent of people in d.c. voted for trump celebrating the news that their mom probably won. one of course right now to. have one of the details coming out one of the latest numbers either way it looks like it's going to be a pretty big moment joe biden come to harris indeed well the reason that joe biden has declared victory and the reason that we're seeing a pretty much unanimous voice from us media saying that joe biden has won is because of pennsylvania it's pretty clear that joe biden is very solidly ahead in the pennsylvania count and pennsylvania's 20 electoral votes at this point are pretty clearly going to go to joe biden so based on that we have joe biden declaring victory and rejoicing in the biden camp take a listen. america i'm honored that you'v

live to atlanta, georgia, fewer than 25,000 ballots left to be counted in georgia and trump has the lead but by less than 19,000 votes. the voleft to be counted included mailed ballots from atlanta metro region that do tend to lean heavily democratic. a lot is still up in the air but we are getting closer to the results. georgia for one says they expect them all by this afternoon. we'll keep an eye on it. len and michelle. >>> 6:55. time for a look at the other top stories. >> 751,000 americans claimed jobless aid last week. overall layoffs remain elevated amid coronavirus resurgence and congress failure to provide a relief bill for businesses struggling to survive. >>> a sneaker store hit by looters in richmond. the window is now shattered with merchandise all over. no news on any arrests. >>> san lorenzo, big five sporting goods was also targeted by looters. a witness tells us he saw multiple suspects walking out with long rifles. nothing is confirmed yet by police. >>> u.s. hit a new record for new covid-19 cases in a single day topping more than 102,000. we have seen a record seven d

let's go to atlanta, georgia now — seth weathers is donald trump's former political director. thank you for being on the programme. so, do you think he needs to concede now? yeah, i think he needs to go through the process, if he feels there are issues, and they have been some obvious issues, then go through the full legal process that he is allowed as a candidate for office and depending on the outcome of that, move forward, and whatever direction the outcome shows. clearly so far, his attem pts shows. clearly so far, his atte m pts to shows. clearly so far, his attempts to prove anything have not really come up with anything and most of the legal challenges have led to nothing so far. there are some things that haven't hit the courts, i do believe the chances of those overturning anything at this point is very slim, however, as someone who was bothered by someone who was bothered by some of the things that did happen in this election, i would like to see them go forward with those legal measures so that we can have some resolution to some of the things that happened, specifi
