*川普還有任何其他法律途徑推翻選舉結果嗎?在賓州,川普團隊仍未放棄訴訟。在以下幾州,川普已經在法律訴訟失敗。
■ In Michigan, the Trump campaign filed a federal lawsuit to block the certification of results in Wayne County, citing complaints from poll watchers - but this was dropped after a similar challenge was rejected at state-level
■ In Arizona, a lawsuit claimed some legal votes were rejected, citing problems with voting machines - but Arizona's Secretary of State said this was "grasping at straws", and the suit was dropped
■ In Georgia, an attempt was made to stop the count in Chatham County, alleging problems with ballot processing - but the lawsuit was rejected by a judge who said there was "no evidence" of improper ballot mixing
■ In Nevada, a suit asked that Mr Trump be named the winner in the state or that the results be void with no winner certified, alleging illegal voting. This was rejected by the state's Supreme Court, stating there was "no credible or reliable evidence" of fraud
■ In Wisconsin, Trump's legal team have argued around 220,000 ballots were unlawfully cast, as they seek to overturn the result there. The suit has been rejected by the state's Supreme Court

*【潘斯及賀錦麗在病毒反應及川普記錄上激辯】
白宮疫情陰影下的副總統辯論正在進行,賀錦麗批潘斯和川普在公衛政策上是災難性的失敗,稱”他們知道並掩蓋了一切”。而潘斯有選擇地為白宮的病毒記錄辯護,並把自己塑造成一個低調的領導人,與總統形成鮮明對比。

*【專家警告說,有機玻璃屏障並不能阻止病毒在辯論中的傳播】
副總統潘斯和參議員賀錦麗坐在演講臺上,相距12英尺以上,彼此之間設有有機玻璃隔開。但科學家說,如果潘斯和賀錦麗都坐在講臺上,這些障礙的道具沒什麼意義,冠毒仍在空中傳播,如果潘斯有被感染,賀錦麗和主持人蘇珊•佩奇(今日美國華盛頓辦事處主任)也有風險。

《紐約時報》和《錫耶納》的新民意調查顯示,拜登繼續在內華達州保持穩定的領先地位,而在俄亥俄州則勢均力敵。調查發現,拜登在內華達州的選民中佔48%至42%,在俄亥俄州佔45%至44%。內華達州百分之六的選民和俄亥俄州百分之七的選民表示,他們仍未決定。這項民調是在川普確診後,到川普出院返回白宮之前進行的,兩個州的選民,包括川普約20%的支持者都以很大的差距說,總統沒有採取足夠的預防措施來保護自己不受病毒侵害,表達了不滿。

*【美國司法部放寬選舉舞弊調查限制,川普宣揚虛假敘述】
過去幾十年來,聯邦檢察官被告知不要在選舉前的最後幾個月,進行選舉舞弊調查,因為他們擔心這會降低選民投票率或削弱對選舉結果的信心。現在,司法部在總統大選前幾周取消了這項禁令。因為川普總統和司法部長巴爾正在宣揚一種錯誤說法,那就是選民舞弊猖獗,可能會削弱美國人對選舉的信心。

#即使白宮大爆發,許多助理人員都在隔離,川普仍堅持回到橢圓形辦公室辦公。白宮防疫建議調潛在的危險,指示工作人員戴上醫療用口罩和防護眼罩。許多衛生專家認為,西翼疫情是白宮官員無視公共衛生專家建議的預防措施的結果。

NBC民調也見彭博聲勢升上次席,但他跟溫和派拜登只能活一個。
Sanders advanced to 32% support among Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents in the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll, up 8 percentage points from late January. Biden fell to 17%, down 11 points to his lowest of the campaign. And Bloomberg, who takes the stage for the first time in Wednesday night's debate in Nevada, now has 14% support, up 6 points.
