Bill O'Reilly here, Tuesday, November 10th, 2020. You are listening to the O'Reilly Update. Here's what's happening across our nation. The Attorney General moves to investigate, quote, voting irregularities. Some Republicans push President Trump to run again. Researchers say a COVID vaccine will be available by early next year. Half of Americans still plan on traveling for the holidays. gas prices dropped to the lowest level in 15 years. Also ahead, we'll do the math in the swing

states, but first. Attorney General Bill Barr giving the green light to election investigations in the battleground states. The Department of Justice informing local governments they have until December 8th to resolve any irregularities or disputes. The Trump campaign claiming voter fraud in Democratic-run areas. South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham, encouraging Mr. Trump to run for the White House in 2004 should his legal challenges fail. The Republican telling members of the party, quote, We can't let the movement die, unquote.

Only President Grover Cleveland served two non-consecutive terms. He is officially listed as the country's 22nd and 24th president. Pharmaceutical company Pfizer, saying its COVID vaccine may be available soon. The new treatment has a 90% success rate in stopping the virus, according to the company. The pandemic hammering the USA right now with more than 100,000 new infections every day. More than half of Americans say they will keep their travel plans this holiday season. A new survey from TripAdvisor says 56% of a dollar. will visit family and friends in the weeks to come. Eight in ten still refuse to fly, however,

until a vaccine is produced. A quarter are still jittery about staying overnight in a hotel. Gas prices across the USA, now at the lowest level since 2004. The national average stands at $2.10 per gallon. The highest ever recorded was $4 a gallon back in 2008. Now, if you plan, on hitting the road this Thanksgiving, try to fill up the tank in Texas if you're close. It's really not worth a drive from Minnesota, but if you're close, Texas gas will cost you $1.50 a gallon. Avoid California. Prices there are twice as high as the Lone Star State. In a moment, the huge difference in vote count after election day, wait until you hear this. Right back. Let's face it, the U.S. economy is under stress. National debt rising, trade war,

Time now for the O'Reilly Update message of the day, doing the math in the presidential election. Please consider this. On election night in Pennsylvania, the vote tally was Donald Trump, 52 percent, Joe Biden, 44%. One week later, Donald Trump 49%, Joe Biden, 50%. In Michigan, on election night, Donald Trump 54%, Joe Biden 44%. One week later, Trump 48, Biden 51. In Georgia, election night, Trump 53, Biden 45. One week later, Trump 49, Biden 49.5, and still counting.

So what the deuce happened? Mail-in ballots happen. But did they really break for Biden that big? That is the root of the current controversy, one which the FBI is now investigating. Now, Joe Biden believes he won the race handily. The media has deemed him President-elect. No official body has done that. Just the media. And Mr. Biden ran with it, as any candidate would. Gave a speech, saying he's going to unite everybody to give him a chance, all of that. So Biden is in the strong position here. President Trump also said he won on election night, which was at that moment. But then, of course, he was overwhelmed by mail-in balance. The president refusing to concede. His administration believes there was cheating. Now the FBI, as I mentioned,

is investigating. But it would take a lot for a court to intervene. Federal judges don't like to be election deciders, even at the Supreme Court level. But some votes upon examination will be thrown out. And in states like Arizona, where it's still razor thin, that could matter. In Pennsylvania right now, the vote difference is 45,000 Biden ahead. That's not a lot of votes. However, to throw out 45,000 votes because some of them are invalid, that's a lot. In Michigan, it's a whopping one 129,000 votes separating Joe Biden from Donald Trump. In Georgia, just 12,000 votes. And that state will recount.

Now there, Donald Trump is a chance. Also in Arizona, less than 15,000 votes separate the leader Biden from the president. And they're still counting in Arizona. As Yogi Berra once said, it's not over. till it's over, but Yogi voted in person. This year, mail-in ballots turned the entire election around. Was it honest? I don't think we're ever going to know. I don't think that Donald Trump is going to have enough to become the next president. It will be Joe Biden unless the FBI finds a catastrophe.

President Trump's legal team now challenging the 2020 election in at least four states, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Georgia, and Wisconsin. While Joe Biden and his party pushed to formalize the results, many Democrats are reminded of a brutal court battle exactly 20 years ago that ultimately sent a

Republican to the White House, Bush versus Gore and the infamous hanging chads in Florida. On November 7th in the year 2000, the networks called Florida for Al Gore. A few hours later, they took it back, claiming George W. Bush won the Sunshine State. Gore called Bush the younger to concede. A few hours later, the networks reversed the decision again, and Gore rescinded his concession. The razor-tight margin required a mandatory recount in the entire state of Florida, which sparked a meltdown. Counting machines rejected thousands of ballots due to technical malfunctions, or because voters failed to puncture the mark next to their chosen candidate, leaving only a partially perforated ballot. A hanging Chad. Many claim they intended to vote for

the Democrat, Gore. But their support was accidentally thrown to a third party candidate, Pat Buchanan. Three weeks later, Florida declared George W. Bush the winner by just 500 votes. The Gore campaign sued in federal court. On December 12, the U.S. Supreme Court stepped in for the first time ever in a presidential race. In a landmark decision, seven of the nine justices rejected Florida's recount, shutting the door on Al Gore's quest for the presidency. Six days later, George W. Bush officially declared president-elect of the United States. And here's something else you might not know. If you think Al Gore versus George Bush was the closest election in U.S. history. You're wrong. In 1876, Republican candidate Rutherford Hayes narrowly beat Democrat Samuel Tilden by one electoral vote, 185 to 184. Tilden won the

popular vote by 300,000. Small solace, as Samuel Tilden has vanished from history. Back after this. and the people behind the headlines.
