Joe Biden's Win; Trump Campaign Lawsuits Update; Black Voters and the 2020 Election; NYC Parents Can Opt-In to Hybrid Learning

The Brian Lehrer Show | Nov 9, 2020

Coming up on today's show: 

  • Michelle Goldberg, New York Times op-ed columnist and co-host of the podcast The Argument, talks about Joe Biden's win (and President Trump's refusal to acknowledge it so far).
  • Richard Hasen, professor of law and political science at the University of California, Irvine, author of Election Meltdown: Dirty Tricks, Distrust, and the Threat to American Democracy (Yale University Press, 2020) and writer behind the Election Law blog, talks about the current Trump campaign challenges to the vote counting.
  • Rashad Robinson, president of Color of Change and spokesperson for Color Of Change PAC, talks about how Black voters propelled Joe Biden to a likely victory, and what this means for the Black Lives Matter movement in the future.
  • Parents of New York City public school children have the choice to opt into hybrid learning now -- and it'll most likely be their only chance to do so before the end of the school year. WNYC reporter Jessica Gould talks about the policy and listeners call in to share how they are making this decision.

 Transcripts are posted to the individual segment pages as soon as they are available.
