SCOOP with @tylerpager: Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer are joining Biden in Wilmington, Delaware, tomorrow, for their first in-person meeting since the election.
@tylerpager Joe, Chuck and Nancy bloom.bg/2IKGckO
VP-elect Kamala Harris will also be at this meeting tomorrow, per a transition official, so it's actually Joe, Kamala, Chuck and Nancy ...
What's striking is that until 14 years ago, the meeting of a president-elect, VP-elect and any congressional leaders would have been all-male. Speaker Pelosi has been the only woman in those meetings since then. That's changing now with Harris heading to the vice presidency.

Biden chief of staff Ron Klain says on MSNBC that the president-elect has spoken to some Republican senators (he doesn’t say which) but not yet to Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.
Klain suggests R senators who have spoken with Biden may not want their names public right now: “I’m not naming names because we read out the calls when we read out the calls, when both sides agree to read out the calls. And he’s having private conversations with individuals.”
Klain: HHS officials are planning for vaccine distribution in the months when Biden will be president, “so the sooner we can get our transition experts into meetings with the folks who are planning the vaccination campaign, the more seamless the transition.”

"Our data shows that Joe Biden will be the next president of the United States," campaign manager @jomalleydillon says.
@jomalleydillon "What we're seeing on these legal suits are that they are meritless and nothing more than an attempt to distract and delay what is now inevitable: Joe Biden will be the next president of the United States," O'Malley Dillon says.
@jomalleydillon O'Malley Dillon calls Georgia "a true tossup" but says considering the outstanding votes are from D areas and mail-in, the state "at this stage leans to" Biden.

Biden campaign manager Jen O'Malley Dillon: "Joe Biden is on track to win this election and he will be the next president of the United States ... We believe we are on a clear path to victory by this afternoon."
"Let's be extremely clear about something, if Donald Trump got his wish and we stopped counting ballots right now, Vice President Joe Biden would be the next president of the United States," O'Malley Dillon says.
"It is interesting to note that the count could have started earlier, and we could have had results earlier, but for the attempts of Republican legislators in Michigan and in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin to refuse to permit an earlier ballot count," Biden lawyer Bob Bauer says.

Biden official says “This is moving to a conclusion—& moving to a conclusion in our favor.” Confident they’ve won WI, have an “insurmountable lead” in MI and expect it called midday. “Confident” in PA & expect Philly VBM tonight or tmrw. GA pending Fulton today. NV called tmrw.
Hearing a lot of confidence from Biden camp and other Dem folks who see most of the outstanding battlegrounds breaking their way based on the kinds of votes that haven’t been counted yet.
Biden campaign plans another @jomalleydillon-Bob Bauer briefing at 10 a.m. ET.
