>>
>> WE'LL
>> WE'LL INTRODUCE YOU TO A COUPLE SANDY AGINS WHO FOUND SUCCESS ON THE APP.
YOU'RE UP WITH NEWSIE.
>> WE START THE SIX A.M. HOUR
WITH SOME BREAKING NEWS IN THE
RACE FOR THE WHITE HOUSE
OVERNIGHT FORMER VICE PRESIDENT
JOE BIDEN INCHED AHEAD OF
PRESIDENT TRUMP IN GEORGIA BUT
THAT STATE REMAINS TOO CLOSE TO
CALL.
LAURA PODESTA JOINING US LIVE
FROM WASHINGTON WITH THE VERY
LATEST.
GOOD MORNING, LAURA.
>> GOOD MORNING.
WE CAN EXPECT TENSIONS TO
REMAIN HIGH ACROSS THE COUNTRY
AS AMERICANS WATCH THE EVER
CHANGING VOTE TALLIES FOUR
STATES REMAIN RAZOR THIN WITH
GEORGIA FLIPPING FROM RED TO
BLUE OVERNIGHT.
ALSO OVERNIGHT, PRESIDENT TRUMP
WAS TWEETING BUT MANY OF HIS
TWEETS WERE BEING CENSORED BY
TWITTER FOR QUOTE HAVING
MISLEADING INFORMATION ABOUT
THE ELECTION.
DEMOCRACY IS SOMETIMES MESSY.
AFTER FOUR DAYS OF COUNTING
BALLOTS, FORMER VICE PRESIDENT
JOE BIDEN HAS OVERTAKEN
PRESIDENT TRUMP IN THE STATE OF
GEORGIA.
>> WE HAVE NO DOUBT THAT WHEN
THE COUNT IS TRULY SHANNON
HARRIS AND I WILL BE DECLARED
THE WINNERS.
VOTES ARE STILL BEING COUNTED
IN GEORGIA AND ELSEWHERE.
ON THURSDAY THE FORMER VICE
PRESIDENT LAUNCHED A HAITIAN'S
THE PROCESS IS WORKING.
THE COUNT IS BEING COMPLETED
AND WE'LL KNOW VERY SOON.
PRESIDENT TRUMP HAD LARGELY
LEANED ON ELECTION NIGHT IN A
HANDFUL OF STATES BUT THOSE
BEGAN TO DISAPPEAR ONCE THE
TALLY OF MAIL IN BALLOTS BEGAN
.
>> AMAZING HOW THOSE MAIL IN
BALLOTS ARE SO ONE SIDED.
AT THE WHITE HOUSE, MR. TRUMP
MADE A NUMBER OF FALSE CLAIMS
AND ATTACKED THE INTEGRITY OF
THE ELECTION.
>> AND THIS IS A CASE WHERE
THEY'RE TRYING TO STEAL AN
ELECTION.
THEY'RE TRYING TO RIG AN
ELECTION.
>> THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN HAS FILED
LAWSUITS IN SEVERAL STATES
TRYING TO HALT THE PROCESS.
BUT ELECTION OFFICIALS AROUND
THE COUNTRY SAY THEY'VE SEEN NO
EVIDENCE OF VOTER FRAUD.
THE STRENGTH OF THE INTEGRITY
OF THIS VOTE IS REALLY
UNPARALLELED.
TRUMP SUPPORTERS GATHERED AT
VOTE COUNTING CENTERS AROUND
THE COUNTRY AND REPEATED THE
PRESIDENT'S FALSE ACCUSATIONS.
THEY SHUT DOWN THE COUNTING OF
THE VOTING BECAUSE THEY KNEW
TRUMP WAS WINNING.
SOME OFFICIALS SAY THERE
CONCERNED FOR THEIR SAFETY.
>> I COULD TELL YOU THAT MY
WIFE AND MY MOTHER ARE VERY
CONCERNED FOR ME.
BUT WE HAVE SECURITY HERE A
SENIOR ADMINISTRATION OFFICIAL
TELLS CBS NEWS .
THE PRESIDENT MAY NOT CONCEDE
THE ELECTION IF BIDEN DECLARES
VICTORY.
AT THIS POINT, IF BIDEN WINS
PENNSYLVANIA, YEAH, HE WILL
HAVE SURPASSED THE 270
ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTES THAT HE
NEEDS TO CLINCH THE PRESIDENCY.
IF BIDEN WINS GEORGIA, THAT
WOULD BRING 269 ELECTORAL
VOTES, WHICH MEANS PRESIDENT
TRUMP WOULD HAVE TO WIN EVERY
OTHER UNDECIDED REMAINING STATE
IN ORDER TO TIE HIM AT 269.
AND IN THAT TIE SITUATION WHICH
IS HIGHLY UNLIKELY IT WOULD BE
UP TO THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTS
TO DECIDE WHO WOULD BE OUR NEXT
PRESIDENT.
AND LAURA HAS TO LIVE IN
WASHINGTON, D.C..
NOW BACK TO YOU.
>> LET'S GIVE YOU A VISUAL OF
HOW THAT COULD ALL HAPPEN.
LET'S TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT THE
ELECTORAL MAP HERE AGAIN.
GEORGIA HAS FLIPPED OVERNIGHT
THANKS IN PART TO CLAYTON
COUNTY WHICH FAVORED BIDEN.
THAT'S THE HOME COUNTY BY THE
WAY, OF THE LATE CONGRESSMAN
JOHN LEWIS.
STILL THE STATE TOO CLOSE TO
CALL BUT WE'RE GOING TO PUT IT
AS LEANING BIDEN HERE THIS
MORNING.
IT'S JUST TOO CLOSE TO CALL
ALONG WITH PENNSYLVANIA, NORTH
CAROLINA, ARIZONA AND NEVADA
RIGHT NOW IN NORTH CAROLINA.
TRUMP IS UP BY 80000 VOTES.
SO IF WE PUT THAT AS LEANING
TOWARDS TRUMP, PENNSYLVANIA
TRUMP IS UP 18000 VOTES AND WE
PUT THAT LEANING TOWARDS TRUMP
IF WE MOVE OVER TO NEVADA RIGHT
NOW, BIDEN IS UP ONLY BY 12000
VOTES.
THAT ACTUALLY HASN'T CHANGED
MUCH SINCE YESTERDAY.
ARIZONA LEADING BIDEN FORTY
SEVEN THOUSAND VOTES IN ARIZONA
AT THIS TIME.
SO THE ONE THING ABOUT ARIZONA
THAT'S INTERESTING A MIRACLE
BUT COUNTY THEY STILL NEED TO
COUNT ABOUT 12 PERCENT OF THE
VOTES.
NOW GETTING BACK TO THAT
POSSIBLE TIE, IF ARIZONA SHOULD
GO TOWARDS TRUMP AND NEVADA
SHOULD GO TOWARDS TRUMP.
THAT'S WHERE YOU GET A BIDEN
WITH 269.
TRUMP WITH 269.
THAT'S THE SCENARIO THAT COULD
LEAD TO A COLLECTIVE TIE HERE.
ARIZONA IS SUPPOSED TO BE
UPDATING THEIR TALLY, BY THE
WAY, AT 8:00 THIS MORNING,
NEVADA AT 9:00 A.M..
SO WE MAY GET A BETTER PICTURE
OUT OF THIS.
SO GET THIS OUT OF ALL FIVE OF
THESE STATES.
ONLY ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY FIVE
THOUSAND VOTES SEPARATE ALL OF
THEM.
SO TO PUT THAT INTO PERSPECTIVE
,THAT'S THE POPULATION OF ESKE
AND DITTO.
THAT'S WHAT'S SEPARATING ALL OF
THESE VOTES HERE RIGHT NOW.
STILL VERY CLOSE RACE, ERICK
AND OBVIOUSLY WE'RE WATCHING
THIS CLOSELY.
>> SO STAY WITH US.
AND WE ALSO WANT TO TELL YOU
ABOUT THIS THIS JUST IN.
UNEMPLOYMENT HAS DROPPED TO SIX
POINT NINE PERCENT AND THE
ECONOMY GREW BY SIX HUNDRED
THIRTY EIGHT THOUSAND JOBS LAST
MONTH.
THAT'S ACCORDING TO THE LABOR
DEPARTMENT.
BOTH NUMBERS WERE BETTER THAN
EXPECTED.
BUT THERE IS CONCERN THAT
RISING CORONA VIRUS CASES COULD
LEAD TO NEW LOCKDOWNS AND NEW
JOBLESS.
NEW JOB LOSSES THAT'S COMING
THIS WINTER.
AND TODAY A NAVY MAN INVOLVED
IN A DEADLY DUI CRASH AT
CHICANO PARK COULD SOON BE OUT
OF PRISON EARLY.
HIS PICKUP TRUCK FLEW OFF A
RAMP TO THE CORNARO BRIDGE.
REMEMBER THIS?
NEWS'S EVAN HOURANI IS LIVE IN
BARRIO LOGAN FOLLOWING THOSE
DEVELOPMENTS.
EVAN, THE FAMILY OF A COUPLE
KILLED SPEAKING OUT AND THEY'RE
UPSET.
YEAH, I MEAN AND RIGHTFULLY SO
THEY SAY THAT THIS MAN DIDN'T
EVEN SERVE A THIRD OF HIS
SENTENCE OVER NEARLY A DECADE
SENTENCES WHERE HE WAS
SENTENCED TO AND HAS BARELY
SERVED THREE YEARS OF THAT.
THE ACCIDENT HAPPENED HERE AT
CHICANO PARK JUST ABOUT FOUR
YEARS AGO AND HE WAS SENTENCED
IN MAY OF LAST YEAR TO NINE
YEARS AND EIGHT MONTHS IN
PRISON.
HE SERVED JUST OVER TWO YEARS
AT THIS POINT AND NOW BECAUSE
OF A CAUVIN 19 PRISON RELEASE
PROGRAM, HE COULD BE RELEASED
EARLY.
NOW IT IS UNKNOWN WHETHER OR
NOT THAT WILL HAPPEN THIS WEEK
BUT IT COULD HAPPEN AS EARLY AS
TODAY.
HE COULD BE RELEASED BUT THEY
WON'T BE RELEASING DETAILS AS
TO EXACTLY WHEN HE IS RELEASED
OR WHERE HE'S GOING TO BE
LIVING.
AFTER THAT RELEASE DATE,
HOWEVER, THE FAMILY THAT WE
SPOKE TO SAYS THAT THEY DON'T
BELIEVE THIS IS FAIR.
THEY BELIEVE THAT THEY'RE JUST
BARELY RECOVERING FROM LOSING
THIS.
THIS DAUGHTER SAYS SHE'S BARELY
RECOVERED FROM LOSING BOTH OF
HER PARENTS IN THIS CRASH AND
THAT HE WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR
GETTING BEHIND THE WHEEL OF HIS
CAR AND FOR BEING INTOXICATED
DURING THAT.
AND HERE'S WHAT SHE HAD TO SAY.
NO MATTER HOW YOU SLICE AND
DICE, HE WAS DRINKING AND
DRIVING AND HE CHOSE TO GET
BEHIND THE WHEEL.
>> HE USED HIS CAR AS A WEAPON
AND UNFORTUNATELY HE KILLED
FOUR PEOPLE.
I LOST MY PARENTS, BOTH OF THEM
IN AN INSTANT AND IT'S
HORRENDOUSLY CHANGED.
OUR LIVES WILL NEVER BE THE
SAME.
HE GETS TO WALK FREE TOMORROW.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING, CHRISTMAS,
EASTER.
WHILE AT OUR KITCHEN TABLES WE
HAVE TWO EMPTY CHAIRS THAT
WE'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO FILL.
SO THE FAMILY OF THE VICTIMS
ONLY FOUND OUT ON TUESDAY THAT
AS A PART OF A COVERED 19
PRISON RELEASE PROGRAM TO POLIO
WILL BE RELEASED AS EARLY AS
TODAY AFTER SERVING LESS THAN A
THIRD OF THAT TOTAL SENTENCE.
STATE PRISON OFFICIALS SAY
THAT'S A POLIO IS NOT ONLY
LEAVING PRISON SEVEN YEARS
EARLY BECAUSE OF THE EFFORT TO
REDUCE PRISON POPULATIONS
DURING THE PANDEMIC BUT ALSO
BECAUSE OF GOOD BEHAVIOR.
BACK IN MAY OF TWENTY NINETEEN
HE WAS CONVICTED OF FOUR COUNTS
OF A HIGH SCHOOLER MANSLAUGHTER
WHILE INTOXICATED.
POLIO WHO WAS IN THE NAVY AT
THE TIME OF THE CRASH HAD A
BLOOD ALCOHOL LEVEL OF POINT
ZERO SIX.
THAT IS UNDER THE LEGAL LIMIT.
BUT PROSECUTORS STILL BELIEVE
THAT ALCOHOL PLAYED A ROLE IN
THE ACCIDENT TO POLIO, DENIES
THAT AND ALSO DENIES SPEEDING
DURING THE CRASH.
THE ATTORNEY FOR THE POLIO SAYS
HE'S FOLLOWED EVERYTHING ASKED
OF HIM BY THE NAVY AND BY THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND WILL BE
RELEASED UNDER THE SAME
STANDARDS THAT ANY OTHER
PRISONER IS RELEASED UNDER.
SO THEY DON'T BELIEVE THAT HE'S
BEING GIVEN SPECIAL TREATMENT.
BUT AS I MENTIONED, HE WILL NOT
BE.
THE INFORMATION SURROUNDING HIS
RELEASE SO WHERE HE ENDS UP
LIVING AFTER THIS.
THE INFORMATION AS TO EXACTLY
WHEN HE IS RELEASED THAT WILL
NOT BE RELEASED TO THE PUBLIC.
HE ALSO WILL BE RELEASED IN
CALIFORNIA AND LIKELY LIVE IN
CALIFORNIA DESPITE HIS FAMILY
LIVING IN TEXAS.
SO THIS IS OF COURSE A
SITUATION OF THE FAMILY SAYS IS
UNFAIR.
HOWEVER, HIS ATTORNEYS SAY THAT
HE IS DOING EVERYTHING RIGHT BY
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
SO IT IS JUST A BACK AND FORTH
AT THIS POINT.
HOWEVER, IT IS EXPECTED THAT HE
WILL BE RELEASED AS EARLY AS
TODAY IF NOT IN THE VERY
FORESEEABLE FUTURE.
NOW SOMETHING'S BACK TO YOU.
AND WE DO HAVE SOME BREAKING
NEWS TO TELL YOU RIGHT NOW.
>> LOOKS LIKE JOE BIDEN AS OF
JUST MOMENTS AGO IS LEADING
RIGHT NOW IN PENNSYLVANIA.
AND EARLIER THIS MORNING HE WAS
LEADING IN GEORGIA AS WELL.
HE HAD JUST TOLD YOU MINUTES
AGO OVER ON THE TOUCH SCREEN
HERE THAT THAT TRUMP WAS UP BY
18000 VOTES IN PENNSYLVANIA.
THEY LITERALLY JUST UPDATED
THIS.
AND NOW IT LOOKS LIKE BIDEN IS
UP BY FIVE THOUSAND FIVE
HUNDRED VOTES IN PENNSYLVANIA.
THAT'S GOT 20 ELECTORAL VOTES.
SHOULD BIDEN WIN THAT, IT'S
OVER.
YOU'LL HAVE A TOTAL OF TWO
HUNDRED AND SEVENTY THREE
ELECTORAL VOTES AND HE'D BE THE
PRESUMPTIVE PRESIDENT.
YEAH.
>> SO WE'RE WATCHING THIS ONE
VERY CLOSELY.
WE'RE JUST GETTING THEIR
NUMBERS UPDATED.
IT HASN'T BEEN CALLED YET.
WE'RE JUST SEEING.
WE DON'T KNOW HOW MANY HOW MANY
BALLOTS THEY STILL HAVE LEFT TO
COUNT.
DOES IT SHOW?
>> IT DOES SAY THAT THEY ARE 98
PERCENT RIGHT NOW.
SO 98 PERCENT OF THE EXPECTED
VOTE IS HOW THE AP IS REPORTING
THIS.
SO WE'RE STILL EXPECTING
ANOTHER TWO PERCENT WITH FIFTY
FIVE HUNDRED.
IT COULD STILL SWING THE OTHER
WAY GIVEN ON HOW BIG THE STATE
OF PENNSYLVANIA IS.
BUT SOME MAJOR DEVELOPMENTS
COMING OUT OF PENNSYLVANIA NOW
GOING FROM 18000 POSITIVE CRUMP
TO FIFTY FIVE HUNDRED POSITIVE
BIDEN.
>> OK.
STAY WITH US ON THIS AS WE
CONTINUE TO WATCH THIS CLOSELY.
LET'S GO AHEAD AND CHECK IN NOW
ON THIS FRIDAY MORNING.
IT'S GOING TO BE MUCH COOLER
TODAY AND THEN THE WEEKEND.
GET OUT THOSE UMBRELLAS MAYBE.
YEAH, THIS WEEKEND YOU'LL
DEFINITELY THE RAIN BOOTS.
I THINK ERIC'S ACTUALLY FAMILY
GAVE US A LITTLE RAIN COAT FOR
ROYO.
WE'RE GOING TO WHIP THAT OUT.
THE LITTLE LADYBUG.
BUT YEAH.
YOU COULD TAKE A BREAK FROM I
GUESS THE ELECTION COVERAGE
WITH THIS VIEW OF THE BEACH
RIGHT NOW.
IT'S SO PRETTY OUT THERE
REGARDLESS.
BUT WE ARE LOOKING AT THAT
SWELL PICKING UP.
IT'S ALREADY PICKING UP HERE
THIS MORNING AND THAT BEACH
HAZARD STATEMENT BEGINS AT 8:00
THIS MORNING SAYS WE'RE GOING
TO SEE SOME PRETTY DECENT SIZED
WAVES COMING THROUGH THIS
WEEKEND ALONG WITH THAT STORM
THAT'S COMING THROUGH.
SO THAT'S JUST SEVEN FEET
POSSIBLE SATURDAY AND SUNDAY.
BUT THIS BEGINNING AT 8:00 THIS
MORNING UNTIL MONDAY, 2:00 IN
THE MORNING, RIP CURRENT RISK
WILL BE HIGH AS WELL.
LOOK AT THAT THREE TO FIVE
FOOTERS OUT THERE TODAY.
SO IT'S GROWING COMPARED TO
WHAT WE SAW YESTERDAY AND THE
RIP CURRENT RISK IS ALREADY
HIGH.
SIXTY FIVE DEGREES IN THE
WATER.
HIGH TIDE WILL BE RIGHT AROUND
11 20 THIS MORNING NEARING FIVE
FEET THEN AS FAR AS THE WIND
ADVISORY.
THIS ALSO ISSUED BY THE WEATHER
SERVICE FOR OUR MOUNTAINS AND
OUR DESERT BUT EXPECT WINDS ALL
ACROSS THE COUNTY TO BE PRETTY
STRONG AND IT'S GOING TO BE AN
ONSHORE BREEZE THAT'S GOING TO
PICK UP AND WE COULD SEE GUSTS
50 TO 60 MILES PER HOUR WINDS,
SUSTAINED WINDS 20 TO 30.
MOST OF THIS WILL BE COMING IN
FROM THE WEST.
SO IT'S THAT ONSHORE FLOW ALL
ASSOCIATED WITH THIS STORM
SYSTEM THAT WE'LL BE DIVING
DOWN FROM THE NORTH.
IN FACT, ALREADY THEY'RE SEEING
REALLY STRONG GUSTS UP IN
NORTHERN CALIFORNIA UP TO 60,
65 MILES PER HOUR.
THIS IS WHAT WE'LL EXPECT
THROUGHOUT THE WEEKEND.
LOOK AT THAT.
AND THEN THERE ARE SEVERAL
WARNINGS AROUND THE STATE
BECAUSE OF THIS WINTER STORM
THAT'S BASICALLY COMING THROUGH
IN NOVEMBER AND HERE IT IS AND
THERE'S THAT GREEN THAT YOU SEE
ALSO SNOW EXPECTED FOR THE
HIGHER ELEVATIONS ANYWHERE FROM
THREE TO EIGHT INCHES OF SNOW
FOR TAHOE, EVEN BIG BEAR AND
THEN OF COURSE FOR US.
THIS IS THE AMOUNT OF RAIN WE
COULD SEE A QUARTER OF AN INCH
UP TO AN INCH FOR THE
COASTLINE.
MORE THAN THAT INLAND MOUNTAINS
COULD SEE UP TO THREE INCHES OF
RAIN.
JENNY, OF COURSE THE WEEKEND I
WAS GOING TO TAKE MY CATS FOR A
WALK.
YOU'RE FORECASTING RAIN.
NOBODY LIKES A WET CAT.
YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING?
IT'S SIX ELEVEN AND THERE IS
STILL NOTHING HAPPENING TRAFFIC
WISE LOVE.
YOU'RE FREE.
WAIT TIMES ARE BEAUTIFUL.
NO MAJOR CRASHES.
IGNORE THOSE ORANGE THINGS.
I KNOW IT'S HARD TO DO THAT'S
JUST ONGOING CONSTRUCTION BUT
NONE OF IT'S CAUSING AN ISSUE.
>> BACK TO YOU, JENNY.
THANK YOU.
FOR THE SECOND DAY IN A ROW THE
U.S. GETS ANOTHER KOBAN RECORD
ABOUT ONE HUNDRED TWENTY
THOUSAND CASES REPORTED
YESTERDAY A DAY AFTER WE SAW
MORE THAN ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND
SINGLE CASES FOR THE FIRST
TIME.
OUR LOCAL MEMBERS CONTINUE OUR
LOCAL NUMBERS THAT IS CONTINUE
TO RISE AND COUNTY LEADERS
REPORTED FIVE HUNDRED THIRTY
NEW CASES.
THAT'S THREE PERCENT OF NEARLY
SIXTEEN THOUSAND TESTS.
THE 14 DAY AVERAGE IS JUST OVER
THREE PERCENT.
THE COUNTY'S ADJUSTED CASE RATE
IS SET TO PLACES IN THE MOST
RESTRICTIVE TIER.
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE PURPLE
TIER HERE.
HOSPITALIZATION RATES ARE
