JUST NOW: @JoeBiden, speaking in Delaware, decries today's "assault on the citadel of liberty."
@JoeBiden He calls today "an assault on the doing of the people's business." Adds later they "Do not reflect a true America. Do not represent who we are."
@JoeBiden Remarkable he has to say it, but Biden calls on the president to go on national television and call on the protesters to go home.
@JoeBiden "It's not protest. It's insurrection." - @JoeBiden

TUNE IN: A @CBSNews SPECIAL REPORT as @JoeBiden addresses the nation after the #ElectoralCollege votes. Watch on your local @CBS station or stream live on CBSN: CBSNEWS.com/live Image
@CBSNews @JoeBiden @CBS BIDEN: "306 electoral votes is the same number of electoral votes that Donald Trump and Vice President Pence received when they won in 2016."
@CBSNews @JoeBiden @CBS Incredible that a president-elect has to stand here tonight before the country and cite more than 80 court cases, rejected attempts before state legislatures, and quote an ex-cybersecurity official to try to convince a sitting president's supporters that the election is over.

NEW ⁦@CBSNewsPoll⁩: Most feel election is "settled" but @RealDonaldTrump’s voters disagree cbsnews.com/news/cbs-news-…
FROM THE POLL: 82% of Trump voters say they don’t consider Mr. Biden legitimate and almost half of the president’s voters say Mr. Trump should refuse to concede after that Electoral College vote happens, and instead do all he can to stay in power.
Most voters say their own vote and the votes in their state were recorded and counted correctly. Includes most Dems, R’s and independents. So, much of the doubt among Trump voters appears to stem from a belief about things that they feel happened with other peoples' ballots.

@JoeBiden Notably, USDA Secretary-designate Tom Vilsack begins his remarks by discussing the diverse staff he led before and how he plans to take on systemic racism again. Comes after days of criticism that another potential pick, @RepMarciaFudge was passed over for the job.
@JoeBiden @RepMarciaFudge Biden has nominated Fudge to lead @HUDgov. Former WH COS Denis McDonough to lead @DeptVetAffairs, @AmbassadorRice to lead the White House Domestic Policy Council and Katherine Tai to lead @USTradeRep

NEW FROM @CBSNewsPoll: @JoeBiden up 2 in Florida; @realDonaldTrump up 2 in Texas: ImageImage
In Florida, the contest has tightened since our last poll in July, from 6 points down to 2 now, amid an ebbing — if still sizable — concern about coronavirus, while President Trump has picked up a few more of the state's remaining uncertain voters. cbsnews.com/news/trump-bid…
IMPORTANT: New @CBSNewsPoll’s in FL and TX finished just before the death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. So it remains unknown how a court vacancy might shape the presidential race in these and other states.
