Trump suggests he might fire Fauci
The president was responding to chants of "Fire Fauci" at a Florida rally.
President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden are racing toward Election Day with Biden in Pennsylvania and Trump Michigan, Iowa, North Carolina, Georgia and Florida on Sunday.
Vice President Mike Pence is in North Carolina and Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., is in Georgia and North Carolina.
In the season's final ABC News/Washington Post polls, the pandemic versus the economy defines the presidential contest in two key battlegrounds, with Florida holding firm to its toss-up status while Biden leads slightly in Pennsylvania.
There's little change in either state. In Florida, Donald Trump has 50% support among likely voters to Biden's 48%; it was 51%-47% in an ABC/Post poll Sept. 20. Trump won the state by 112,911 votes out of more than 9.4 million cast in 2016.
In Pennsylvania, the race stands at 51%-44%, Biden-Trump, a 7-point advantage for the Democrat; that compares with a 9-point margin late last month. Here, Trump's 2016 win was even narrower: 44,292 votes out of nearly 6.2 million cast.

Efforts to throw out 127,000 votes in Harris County, Texas, continue
The Texas State Supreme Court has again just rejected a separate effort by the plaintiffs in this case seeking to invalidate the Harris County drive-thru votes.
The order, which was posted on the court's website Sunday, did not include any comment on the merits of the case.
This is separate from an effort underway by the plaintiffs in the Southern District of Texas federal court, where a federally appointed judge could decide whether to invalidate 127,000 early ballots cast in Harris County via a secure "drive-thru" method after a lawsuit was filed, challenging the county on the legitimacy of the method.
Harris County said it got state approval for drive-in voting in June. The state of Texas did not allow for no-excuse absentee voting during the pandemic, so this method ensured at-risk people could vote in the safety of their cars.
A similar lawsuit was rejected by the all-Republican Texas Supreme Court last week.
Harris County has already set an all-time record for total turnout, with the drive-thru votes accounting for roughly 10% of the total early vote turnout.

When will we know the results?
This year, in addition to the burning question of “Who will win?” people are almost as eager to know, “When will we know the results?”
To help answer that, FiveThirtyEight published a comprehensive guide to following the returns on election night, including when the polls close in each state and what time we might get semi-final results.
You can walk through election night hour by hour, using the forecast as a guide to get a better understanding of just how many electoral votes might be accounted for, including how many Trump and Biden can each expect to win.
Spoiler: Unless one of them has a really good night, it’s unlikely that either will hit 270 electoral votes on election night.
