HIGH ROBIN.
ALL RIGHT.
THANKS SO MUCH.
NICK.
SOUNDS GOOD.
WELL, WE ARE DOWN TO ONLY HOURS UNTIL THE POLLS OPEN ON BOTH SIDES OF THE STATE LINE MISSOURIANS CAN START VOTING AT 6 A.M. START TIMES CHANGE COUNTY BY COUNTY FOR KANSANS.
SO CHECK WITH OFFICE FOR SPECIFICS.
THE RACE FOR THE WHITE HOUSE PRESIDENT TRUMP AND FORMER VP, JOE BIDEN ARE COMPLETING THEIR FINAL PUSH FOR VOTES TODAY AND AS IS EXPECTED THE TWO CANDIDATES HAVE VERY DIFFERENT
STRATEGIES DURING HILLS IN OUR WASHINGTON BUREAU THIS MORNING TO SHOW US WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE.
THE TWO CAMPAIGNS ARE TACKLING THIS LAST DAY IN VERY DIFFERENT WAYS.
YOU HAVE THE PRESIDENT FANNING OUT ACROSS THE COUNTRY WHILE FORMER VICE PRESIDENT.
JOE BIDEN HAS A MORE LASER FOCUSED APPROACH.
IT’S NOT THE ELECTION DAY PREPS WERE USED TO BUT BUSINESSES ACROSS THE COUNTRY ARE BOARDING UP AND BRACING FOR THE RESULTS AS THE CANDIDATES CRISSCROSSING THE COUNTRY WORK FOR A CLEAN
WIN.
THERE’S TOO MUCH ON THE LINE TO SIT IT OUT.
WE ARE GOING TO WIN THE STATE OF MICHIGAN AGAIN.
AFTER A SUNDAY STOP IN THE BATTLEGROUND NOW TRENDING FOR BIDEN PRESIDENT TRUMP IS DOUBLING BACK TODAY, MICHIGAN THE SITE OF TWO OUT OF FIVE RALLIES.
HE’S PLANNED ALSO IN, NORTH CAROLINA, WISCONSIN AND PENNSYLVANIA, PENNSYLVANIA IS CRITICAL IN THIS ELECTION.
THE KEYSTONE STATE IS SHAPING UP TO BE KEY FOR EITHER CAMPAIGN, BUT FORMER VICE PRESIDENT BIDEN IS GOING ALL IN ONE STOP IN OHIO THEN BIDEN HIS RUNNING MATE AND THEIR SPOUSES ARE SPENDING THE
REST OF THE DAY IN PENNSYLVANIA IT STATE PRESIDENT TRUMP NARROWLY WON IN 2016, BUT WHERE POLLS HAVE BIDEN LEADING NOW, BUT CAN THEY BE TRUSTED EXPERTS SAY LOOK AT THE AVERAGE.
THIS RACE HAS BEEN CHARACTERIZED BY GREAT DEAL OF STABILITY POLITICAL SCIENTISTS ALSO POINT TO IMPROVEMENTS IN STATE POLLING ACCOUNTING FOR TRADITIONALLY LESS LIKELY VOTING GROUPS AS
SIGNS OF BETTER RELIABILITY.
YOU’RE BEING CAREFUL NOT TO ASSUME THE COLLEGE EDUCATED VOTERS ARE AS LARGE A SHARE NECESSARILY AS THEY THINK ALL OF THIS AS MORE THAN MILLION BALLOTS HAVE BEEN CAST AND
THERE’S STILL TIME FOR MORE.
AND TODAY A FEDERAL JUDGE IN TEXAS IS SET TO DECIDE WHETHER NEARLY A HUNDRED AND TWENTY THOUSAND BALLOTS CAN BE ACCEPTED ALL OF THEM TAKEN AT A DRIVE-THROUGH LOCATION YESTERDAY
THE STATES SUPREME COURT REJECTED A PETITION FROM A GOP ACTIVIST GROUP TO TOSS THEM OUT.
REPORTING IN WASHINGTON.
I’M JARRED HILL AND AS YOU LIKELY KNOW THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES ARE LOOKING TO GET TO THE MAGIC NUMBER OF 270 ELECTORS TO WIN THE WHITE HOUSE AND TODAY IS THE LAST DAY FOR IN-PERSON
ABSENTEE VOTING IN MISSOURI CAME SOON AS MARTIN AUGUSTINE LIVE THIS MORNING AT THE CLAY COUNTY ELECTION BOARD NOW MARTIN, I’M LIKE KANSAS.
THERE IS NO ADVANCE VOTING IN, MISSOURI.
NO, NOT NOT AS THEY HAVE IT SET UP IN KANSAS, BUT IN MISSOURI YOU HAVE SOMETHING CALLED ABSENTEE IN PERSON AND FOR A NUMBER OF REASONS YOU COULD COME TO YOUR LOCAL ELECTION BOARD
LIKE THESE FOLKS HAVE DONE HERE.
THEY’RE LINING UP AT THE CLAY COUNTY BOARD OF ELECTIONS HERE IN LIBERTY TO VOTE IN PERSON HERE TODAY AS OPPOSED TO VOTING IN PERSON AT THEIR POLLING PLACE TOMORROW AMONG THOSE REASONS IF
YOU’RE NOT GOING TO BE IN YOUR VOTING JURISDICTION ON ELECTION DAY OR IF YOU’RE AT RISK FOR CONTRACTING COVID-19, MEANING YOU’RE 65 OR OLDER OR HAVE A NUMBER OF HEALTH ISSUES.
THEN YOU CAN DO THE ABSENTEE IN PERSON THING OR IF YOU HAVE A RELIGIOUS PRACTICE IT WOULD PREVENT YOU FROM VOTING ON ELECTION DAY.
ANOTHER REASON COULD BE IF YOU WORK FOR AN ELECTION AUTHORITY THAT’S NOT GOING TO BE AT YOUR POLLING PLACE AS FAR AS ABSENTEE BALLOTS AND MAIL-IN BALLOTS GO IN, MISSOURI AND ABSENTEE BALLOT
NEEDS TO BE BROUGHT IN PERSON BACK TO YOUR COUNTY ELECTION BOARD, BUT IF YOU HAVE A MAIL-IN BALLOT THAT HAS TO SHOW UP AT THE ELECTION BOARD OFFICES THROUGH THE MAIL.
YOU CAN’T JUST DROP THAT OFF AGAIN.
IT HAS TO COME THROUGH THE MAIL AND IT HAS T BE DELIVERED TO THE ELECTION BOARD.
BY THE TIME THE POLLS CLOSE TOMORROW AND THAT SEVEN O’CLOCK IN THE EVENING THE MISSOURI SECRETARY OF STATE’S OFFICE SAYS AS OF LATE LAST WEEK, THERE WERE SOME SEVEN HUNDRED AND NINETY
FOUR BALLOTS.
AND SEVEN HUNDRED AND TWENTY THREE THOUSAND HAVE ALREADY BEEN RETURNED AS FAR AS ADVANCED VOTING OR EXCUSE ME AT ABSENTEE.
IN-PERSON VOTING HERE TODAY CLAY COUNTY THAT GOES FROM 8:00 IN THE MORNING.

HEY, MATT.
GOOD MORNING.
A GOOD MORNING ROB MORE THAN 700,000 KANSANS HAVE ALREADY CASHED IN ADVANCE VALLOT AHEAD OF TOMORROW’S ELECTION DAY, WHICH IS MORE THAN DOUBLE THE AMOUNT OF KANSANS THAT VOTED
EARLY IN 2016 AND THERE ARE STILL SEVERAL MORE HOURS IN WHICH YOU CAN CAST AN ADVANCED BALLOT AND THE STATE OF KANSAS STATE WIDE ADVANCED VOTING WILL END AT NOON TODAY HERE LOCALLY
AT THE JOHNSON COUNTY ELECTION BOARD IN OLATHE THE WYANDOTTE COUNTY ELECTION BOARD IN KCK.
