MEMBER
MEMBER THAT SONG. THAT BRING ME HERE THIS FOR ME MADONNA. YEAH. ALL RIGHT. YEAH. YEAH. SO YOU
HAD TO VOGUE HE HAD TO MOVE.
HEY, HEY, HEY. GOOD MORNING TO
YOU. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR
GETTING UP WITH US. OUR
FORECAST OUR WEATHER IS LOOKING
NICE TAKING YOU BACK TO THE 80S
AND 21. I DIDN'T LIKE THAT
LADIES IS US THEN THE 80S OR SO
IN RIGHT NOW. SO IT'S ALL GOOD.
EVERYONE WANTS TO BE, YOU KNOW,
LIKE THE 80S BABIES I WOULD
THINK. HERE'S A VIEW FROM THE
CATAMARAN AND WE'RE SEEING
THOSE LOW CLOUDS OR SKY HIGH
CLOUDS IN SOME AREAS AND THAT'S
GOING TO MAKE FOR SOME REALLY
PRETTY COLORS. LOOK AT THIS
SUNRISE. OF COURSE A BIT TO GO
BEFORE IT'S OFFICIALLY UP. BUT
AS YOU SEE THAT PRE DAWN GLOW.
LOOK AT THE REDS AND THE
ORANGES AND THE PURPLES AND
DARK BLUES. OH YEAH. IT'S GOING
TO BE A REALLY NICE LOOKING
SUNRISE. WE'LL KEEP TABS ON
THAT ALL MORNING. AND THEN
THOSE LOW COASTAL CLOUDS ARE
HANGING RIGHT BY THE COAST,
HIGH CLOUDS INLAND. WE ARE
GOING TO SEE A WARMER AFTERNOON
TODAY AND THEN OUR SURF IS UP
YET AGAIN. AND THAT'S A QUICK
LOOK AT YOUR FORECAST. AND WE
BEGIN WITH SOME BIG POLITICAL
NEWS OVERNIGHT IN CONTROL OF
THE SENATE. VOTES ARE STILL
BEING COUNTED IN THE RUNOFF
ELECTION IN GEORGIA. BUT CBS
NEWS IS PROJECTING DEMOCRAT
RAPHAEL WARNOCK WILL DEFEAT
INCUMBENT SENATOR KELLY
LEFFLER. THE OTHER RACE BETWEEN
DEMOCRAT JOHN SOPH AND
REPUBLICAN DAVID PERDUE IS JUST
TOO CLOSE TO CALL JUST BEING
SEPARATED BY 16000 VOTES
ACCORDING TO THE LATEST NUMBERS
HERE. SO DEMOCRATS NEED BOTH
SEATS TO FLIP THE SENATE. AND
IF THAT HAPPENS, ANY FUTURE
TIES WILL BE BROKEN BY VISE
PRESIDENT ELECT KAMALA HARRIS.
NOW ANOTHER BIG DEVELOPMENT ON
CAPITOL HILL IS THE CHALLENGE
TO THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTES
RIGHT NOW THOUSANDS OF
SUPPORTERS OF PRESIDENT DONALD
TRUMP ARE GATHERING NEAR THE
WHITE HOUSE. SO REPUBLICANS
PLAN TO CHALLENGE THE RESULTS
IN SEVERAL STATES CITING
WIDESPREAD VOTER FRAUD FOR
WHICH THERE IS NO EVIDENCE.
DEBORAH ALPHER ON JOINS US LIVE
FROM CAPITOL HILL NOW. AND
DEBORAH, THIS TALLY OF THE
VOTES USUALLY DOESN'T GET THIS
MUCH FANFARE. NO, IT'S REALLY
MERELY A FORMALITY AND WHAT
USUALLY LASTS MAYBE UNDER AN
HOUR SO IT COULD EVEN STRETCH
AS LONG AS 24 HOURS. ERIC
STELLA ROGER STONE HAS
THOUSANDS OF PRESIDENT TRUMP
SUPPORTERS HAVE COME TO
WASHINGTON D.C. TO PROTEST THE
ELECTORAL RESULTS IN A JOINT
SESSION OF CONGRESS TODAY. THE
ELECTORAL VOTE COUNT IS USUALLY
A FORMALITY BUT TODAY MORE THAN
A DOZEN REPUBLICAN SENATORS AND
ROUGHLY 100 HOUSE REPUBLICANS
PLAN TO CONTEST THE RESULTS
FROM THREE TO SIX BATTLEGROUND
STATES. THEY'RE SUPPORTING
PRESIDENT TRUMP'S UNSUPPORTED
CLAIM OF WIDESPREAD VOTER FRAUD
.WHAT USUALLY HAPPENS IS THAT
LAWMAKERS GET THE RESULTS FROM
EACH STATE. THEN THE VISE
PRESIDENT ANNOUNCES THE FINAL
TALLY. BUT IT'S NOT CLEAR WHAT
VISE PRESIDENT MIKE PENCE WILL
DO OR EVEN CAN DO. I KNOW THAT
OUR GREAT VISE PRESIDENT OUR
GREAT VISE PRESIDENT COMES
THROUGH FOR US. HE'S A GREAT
GUY. BUT IF HE DOESN'T COME
THROUGH, I WON'T LIKE HIM QUITE
AS MUCH. THAT WAS THE PRESIDENT
AT A RALLY IN GEORGIA ON
MONDAY. HE FOLLOWED UP THAT
SENTIMENT YESTERDAY TWEETING
FALSELY THAT THE VISE PRESIDENT
HAS THE POWER TO REJECT
FRAUDULENTLY CHOSEN ELECTORS.
ELECTION LAW EXPERT DAVID
BECKER. THE VISE PRESIDENT'S
ROLE DURING THIS JOINT SESSION
OF CONGRESS IS ENTIRELY
CEREMONIAL. HE BASICALLY
OPERATES LIKE A HOST AT THE
OSCARS. WHAT HIS ROLE IS TO
OPEN UP ON GLOBES AND COUNT
WHAT'S IN THERE. IT IS HIGHLY
UNLIKELY THE OPPOSITION WILL
HAVE AN IMPACT ON THE COUNT.
THE DEMOCRAT CONTROLLED HOUSE
IS EXPECTED TO VOTE DOWN THE
CHALLENGES. SEVERAL SENATE
REPUBLICANS HAVE ALSO SPOKEN
OUT STRONGLY AGAINST THE
OBJECTIONS AND SOME OF
PRESIDENT TRUMP SUPPORTERS HAVE
SPOKEN OUT AGAINST THOSE
REPUBLICANS. THERE'S BEEN A
COUPLE OF VIDEOS ABOUT MITT
ROMNEY THAT HAVE BEEN
CIRCULATING ON TWITTER. ONE
WOMAN HARASSING HIM IN AN
AIRPORT AND THEN TURNED HIM
INTO A LOT OF PEOPLE ON A PLANE
CALLING HIM A TRAITOR. SO IT
HAS NOT BEEN EASY FOR ANYONE
DURING THIS ERICK AND STELLA. A
LOT OF THINGS GOING TO BE
DEVELOPING THERE ON CAPITOL
HILL. THAT'S FOR SURE. DEBORAH,
THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME
THIS MORNING. THIS FORMALITY
MAY GO ON FOR HOURS AND HOURS.
OK, SO WE ARE EXPECTING MORE
ANSWERS TODAY ABOUT WHO'S NEXT
IN LINE TO GET VACCINATED HERE.
A STATE VACCINE ADVISORY
COMMITTEE WILL REVIEW A SERIES
OF RECOMMENDATIONS NEWS EVAN
VERONICA'S LIFE IN KEARNY MESA
WITH A CLOSER LOOK AT ALL OF
THIS TO BREAK IT DOWN HERE FOR
US. GOOD MORNING, ERIC AND
STELLA. THAT'S RIGHT. NOT ONLY
IS THAT VACCINE ADVISORY
COMMITTEE MEETING BUT MANY
PEOPLE ACROSS THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA ARE WONDERING WHAT
IS TAKING SO LONG IN GETTING
MANY PEOPLE VACCINATED. THAT OF
COURSE THE ROLLOUT IN TIER 1A
INCLUDES HEALTH CARE WORKERS
LIKE THOSE AT KAISER PERMANENTE
HEALTH. BEHIND ME HERE IN
KEARNY MESA AS WELL AS THOSE IN
NURSING HOME FACILITIES. NOW
THE STATE HAS ADMITTED THAT
THEY HAVE NOT DONE ENOUGH TO
ENSURE THAT THE VACCINE'S
THEY'RE GETTING AT THE STATE
LEVEL ARE BEING DISTRIBUTED
EQUITABLY AND AS QUICKLY AS
THEY CAN. ONE MILLION TWO
HUNDRED NINETY SEVEN THOUSAND
DOSES RECEIVED FOR 34000
ADMINISTERED NOT GOOD ENOUGH.
WE RECOGNIZE THAT MAKING SURE
THAT WE'RE FOCUSED ON
EMPOWERING OUR VACCINATORS TO
DO MORE ON THIS FRONT IS GOING
TO BE THE KEY THAT HELPS US
INCREASE NO MATTER WHERE WE ARE
AND ACROSS THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA. ONLY 35 PERCENT OF
THE DOSES BROUGHT INTO
CALIFORNIA HAVE ACTUALLY BEEN
ADMINISTERED IN SAN DIEGO
COUNTY ALONE. THAT IS AT ABOUT
30 PERCENT. GOVERNOR NEWSOME
SAYS HIS TEAM IS WORKING TO
CREATE MORE VACCINE
DISTRIBUTION SITES AND TO GET
MORE PEOPLE PREPARED TO
ADMINISTER THE VACCINE. NEWSOME
ALSO WAS ASKING THE LEGISLATURE
FOR 300 MILLION DOLLARS TO
SUPPORT THE VACCINE ROLLOUT
PLAN TIER 1 BE THE NEXT IN
LINE. THAT WOULD INCLUDE THOSE
75 YEARS AND OLDER AS WELL AS
MANY ESSENTIAL WORKERS LIKE
TEACHERS. THE SECOND PART OF
TIER 1 B THEN WILL INCLUDE
PEOPLE 65 AND OLDER PLUS PEOPLE
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS AND
THOSE IN PRISON. NOW THAT
CALIFORNIA VACCINE ADVISORY
COMMITTEE WILL MEET TO REVIEW
PUBLIC COMMENTS AND DISCUSS THE
SPECIFICATION OF EACH OF THOSE
TEARS. IT IS ALSO OF COURSE
QUESTIONED HOW QUICKLY WE WILL
GET THAT GENERAL ROLLOUT. SO TO
THE JUST GENERAL PUBLIC AS
OPPOSED TO ANY OTHER TIER 1 A B
OR C AND THAT COULD BE QUITE A
SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF TIME.
WE'RE TALKING SEVERAL MONTHS
THE MOST GENEROUS ESTIMATES SAY
THAT THAT COULD COME INTO THE
LATE SPRING, EARLY SUMMER THAT
THE GENERAL PUBLIC COULD BE
SEEING THE VACCINES. ANOTHER
HUGE QUESTION IS WHEN WILL
TEACHERS GET THAT? IT WILL
LIKELY BE ALONG THAT TIER 1 B
ESTIMATE THAT WE'LL SEE
TEACHERS GETTING THE VACCINE
AND THEN GET THOSE TEACHERS AND
STUDENTS SUBSEQUENTLY BACK INTO
THE CLASSROOM A PIECE OF GOOD
NEWS ALONG WITH THIS CALIFORNIA
HAS VACCINATED MORE PEOPLE THAN
ANY OTHER STATE IN THE COUNTRY.
AND SO WE'RE HOPING TO OF
COURSE KEEP THAT GOING. AND THE
STATE ADMITTING FAULT IN THE
SLOW ROLLOUT SO FAR SAYING THEY
ARE WORKING TO GET THAT UP TO
SPEED. BACK TO YOU, SELIN.
EVAN, THANK YOU. COUNTY HEALTH
OFFICIALS REPORTING 24 NEW
CONFIRMED CASES AND FOUR
PROBABLE CASES OF THE MORE
CONTAIN JUST COVERED 19 VARIANT
FIRST DISCOVERED IN THE UK.
MEANTIME, EIGHTEEN HUNDRED NEW
CORONAVIRUS CASES ARE BEING
REPORTED OUT OF MORE THAN 19000
TESTS FOR A 9 PERCENT POSITIVE
RATE. THERE WERE 56 NEW DEATHS
INCLUDING ONE PERSON IN THEIR
20S. THERE WERE 60 TWO NEW
HOSPITALIZATIONS AND 10 NEW
ADMISSIONS TO THE ICU SAN
DIEGO'S ICU. CAPACITY IS AT 20
PERCENT BUT THE SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA REGION REMAINS AT
ZERO PERCENT. A PUSH TO
INCREASE ENFORCEMENT AGAINST
PUBLIC HEALTH VIOLATORS IN
CARLSBAD FAILED. CITY COUNCIL
TOOK NO ACTION ON THE MOTION
LAST NIGHT AHEAD OF THE
MEETING. A CROWD OF PROTESTERS
RALLIED OUTSIDE OF CITY HALL TO
OPPOSE THE PROPOSED FINES. YOU
SEE THEM THERE. THE COUNCIL
SAYS IT WILL LOOK AT A MORE
COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH SUCH AS
EDUCATION AND REWARDING THOSE
ABIDING BY THE ORDERS.
MEANWHILE, SAN DIEGO MAYOR TODD
GLORIA SAYS MORE THAN 100
BUSINESSES, MOST OF THEM
RESTAURANTS HAVE RECEIVED
WARNINGS FROM POLICE AFTER
VIOLATING PUBLIC HEALTH ORDERS.
SEVEN WERE GIVEN CITATIONS.
THIS COMES AFTER MAYOR GLORIA
SIGNED AN EXECUTIVE ORDER
CALLING FOR STRONGER
ENFORCEMENT. OUR CHRIS CROWE
WILL HAVE MORE ON THIS
CRACKDOWN COMING UP AT 6:00 30.
LET'S GO AHEAD AND CHECK IN
WITH THAT NOW FOR A LOOK AT OUR
FORECAST. WE'VE GOT THAT FOG IN
SOME PLACES THIS MORNING BUT
NOT AS MUCH YESTERDAY. YEAH,
NOT ANYWHERE NEAR AS DENSE OUT
THERE. SO YOU SHOULD BE OK AS
FAR AS DRIVING GOES. ALL THE
WEATHER STATIONS LOOK LIKE
VISIBILITIES DOING FINE BUT A
LITTLE BIT OF COASTAL CLOUD
COVERAGE WEST OF THE 5 MAINLY
NOW THIS VIEW FROM THE
CATAMARAN AS IT WAS PANNING
TOWARDS THE EAST. THAT IS WHERE
YOU'RE GOING TO SEE A REALLY
PRETTY GLOW. I DON'T HAVE
CONTROL OF THE CAMERA. SO LET'S
SHOW YOU THIS ONE. HERE'S AN
EAST FACING CAMERA FOR YOU, MT.
WOODSON. AND LOOK HOW GORGEOUS
THAT IS. YOU HAVE THE PINKS,
THE ORANGES, THE YELLOWS, THE
PURPLES OH YOU NAME IT THEN
HIGH CLOUDS ARE OUT THERE EAST
OF OUR MOUNTAINS. A LOT OF YOU
THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY WILL BE
WAKING UP TO THOSE HIGH CLOUDS
INLAND. THAT'S WHERE YOU'LL SEE
IT. THIS IS THE VIEW FROM SAN
MIGUEL AS YOU SEE LOOKING OUT
TOWARDS THE EAST AND YOU SEE
THAT PINK HUE. SO AS WE GET
CLOSER TO SIX FIFTY TWO, THE
SUN OFFICIALLY COMES UP. LIKELY
SEE A LOT OF NEAT COLORS. A
QUICK CHECK OF YOUR VISIBILITY
SHOWS THINGS ARE NOT TOO BAD ON
THE ROADWAYS FOUR TO SIX MILE
VISIBILITY. SO OVERALL DOING OK
IN IDB AND OTAY MESA THOUGH
THAT'S WHERE SOME OF THE LOWER
CLOUDS ARE HANGING CLOSER TO
GROUND LEVEL. BUT STILL YOUR
COMMUTE IT SHOULD BE A LITTLE
BETTER A LITTLE SMOOTHER THAN
IT WAS YESTERDAY. HIGH SURF
ADVISORY THAT'S STILL IN EFFECT
FOR OUR COASTLINE IN FACT
TODAY. THOSE WAVES ARE PEAKING
EIGHT TO TEN FOOT SETS SOUTH OF
TORREY PINES EVERY 15 TO 18
SECONDS. THAT'S HOW QUICKLY
THESE WAVES ARE JUST COMING OUT
