Biden fractures foot after fall, will likely be in walking boot 'for several weeks'

Biden is preparing to roll out the names of people on his economic team and sources have told ABC News that he plans to tap Janet Yellen as his treasury secretary, White House correspondent Rachel Scott said on "This Week" Sunday.

"If confirmed, she would be the first woman to hold that job, and she would face a monumental task of not only trying to rebuild the nation's economy but also likely playing a pivotal role in those stalled coronavirus negotiations there on Capitol Hill," Scott told "This Week" Co-anchor Martha Raddatz.

During the "Powerhouse Roundtable" discussion, Raddatz asked ABC News chief business correspondent Rebecca Jarvis about Yellen: "There were several names that were floated. And what do you think it means?"

"Well, Martha, she’s brilliant. She's experienced and has very broad support. The progressives like her but so do Wall Street and corporate America. And she has bipartisan support. She also has a huge task in front of her," Jarvis said, referring to the ongoing pandemic.

"And while President-elect Biden has been calling for more stimulus and additional stimulus plan, that's something she has also been calling for because of the fact that this recovery that we're in the midst of is still on extremely fragile footing," she added.

The Wisconsin partial recount of the state’s most heavily Democratic counties, Dane and Milwaukee Counties, has concluded. Milwaukee finished up on Friday while Dane finished up this morning. 

Trump received a net gain of 45 votes in Dane County, as Biden lost 91 votes from the original count, while Trump lost 46. The new total from Dane County is 260,094 for Biden and 78,754 for Trump, according to a tweet of the recount paperwork from the Dane County Clerk Scott McDonell. 

In total, the results changed by 87 votes in Biden’s favor. That’s less than the margin that the results changed in the 2016 recount -- which was 130 votes -- but about in line, since only two counties were recounted this time. 

As Trump said himself in a tweet on Saturday, though, the GOP goal here was not to find missing votes in the recount, but to set up lawsuits they’ll launch against votes cast early and votes cast by “indefinitely confined” voters. 

“The Wisconsin recount is not about finding mistakes in the count, it is about finding people who have voted illegally, and that case will be brought after the recount is over, on Monday or Tuesday. We have found many illegal votes. Stay tuned!,” Trump tweeted yesterday.
