Georgia's top election official warns of fake online video

Gov. Tim Walz made a campaign stop at Vilma's Kitchen, a local Puerto Rican restaurant in Erie, Pennsylvania, on Thursday and brought up the controversial joke about the island from Trump's Madison Square Garden rally.

Walz said the comedian's insult was "incredibly hurtful" and "dangerous."

"We saw what happened in New York City and Madison Square Garden, as another attempt to divide us," he said.

Walz also told the group that the country needs a “specific Puerto Rico strategy.”

"I say this as a teacher, we've got to educate our fellow Americans about our fellow citizens in Puerto Rico, why it's important [and] why we're investing there, and then understanding how much the Puerto Rican community contributes to all of our states across here," he said.

Walz also spent time meeting with members of the Bharatiya Temple in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, as they celebrated Diwali.

Walz thanked the Indian and South Asian community for their contribution to "all aspects of civil, political, educational” life, in addition to their input ”across the arts and entrepreneurship and business."

"To see the political voice rise itself up, [and] to see us elect folks that look like the community, we get a more perfect union that way," he said.

Maine is one of two states in the country that uses a ranked choice voting (RCV) method to determine its federal elections and that method could lead to a delay in getting the results from the state, a source with knowledge of proceedings told ABC News.

If neither Trump nor Harris get 50% in the state's 2nd Congressional District, "it's going to be chaos," as the recount and retabulation process could last well into the next week, the source said.

In 2018, Rep. Jared Golden wasn't declared the winner in the 2nd Congressional District race until Nov. 15, 11 days after Election Day.

Ballots from every town in Maine will have to be driven to the state capital, requiring involvement from local law enforcement. Ballots will be fed into a machine in Augusta as an Election Day precaution as security is heightened, according to the source.

Trump lashed out against Mark Cuban in a Truth Social post on Thursday, hours after the billionaire Harris surrogate said on "The View" that Trump is never seen "around strong, intelligent women."

Trump called Cuban a "really dumb guy" and claimed Trump surrounds himself with "the strongest of women." The former president added, "ALL women are great, whether strong or not strong."

Calling Cuban a "fool," Trump claimed Cuban called him "incessantly," and at one point he told him, "Look Mark, I've got a lot of things to do, I just can't be taking so many pointless calls from you."

Trump claimed that's why Cuban is attacking him, calling him an "insecure" man.

The ongoing court battle between Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner and billionaire Trump surrogate Elon Musk over his controversial $1 million voter giveaway has taken another turn.

On Wednesday, Musk filed a motion to move Krasner's lawsuit to federal court, claiming the DA's allegations "turn principally on the allegation that Defendants are somehow unlawfully interfering with a federal election."

Krasner filed an emergency motion in federal court Thursday asking the judge to "immediately" send the case back to state court -- asking them to do so by the end of day "if at all possible" so it can continue in state court.

In the filing, the DA's team said Musk's claims are "meritless" and reiterated that their lawsuit makes "only state law claims," therefore making it not subject to federal removal.

The DA said Musk's last-minute effort is "a stunt to obtain a procedural advantage to avoid a ruling ... and run the clock until election day."

Judge Gerald J. Pappert ordered Musk to respond to the DA's filing by 10 a.m. Friday, meaning the case will remain halted until then.
