US Election: Live from Nevada

We are live at a voter’s house in Reno, Nevada, as people wait for the election result

Vote counting continues in a handful of key battleground states which will determine the outcome of the US presidential election. Nuala McGovern is in one of them, Nevada, at the home of a Democratic voter in Reno, talking with her, her friends and neighbours. We also share messages from Republican supporters in Nevada. And the senior political reporter from KUNR, the NPR station in Reno, explains the developments both locally and nationally.

We also speak to Black Americans who voted for Donald Trump in Florida and New York. Data suggests the President doubled his support among black voters to 12%, compared with four years ago.

And we will explain the latest developments with the coronavirus pandemic with the help of our medical expert today – Dr Emma Hodcroft, from the University of Basel in Switzerland.
