We started this week preparing to head into voting booths across the country......or track our ballots online......and we'll end it preparing for court battles.

The 2020 election, still unsettled, is moving into the litigation phase and it's been driven by the Trump campaign.

So we're going to hear from someone close to the President about his arguments that voter fraud and election manipulation is unfairly tilting the results.

We're going to hear from an election law expert on whether any of these cases stand a chance.

And we're going to talk with an elections security specialist on whether there have been any incidents of voter fraud have actually been detected.  

Wall Street doesn't seem to be bothered by the idea of Joe Biden winning the White House and Republicans keeping the Senate. Why do investors love split government?

And while we've all been distracted by the vote counting....coronavirus cases are still rising across the county. Is there any hope of curtailing it before the truly cold winter months?

It's finally here, after a grueling campaign that has been underway for most of the past year..........and often bitter, ugly campaign that was run through a global pandemic and historic economic collapse. Election day has arrived, and not soon enough for most of us.

We're going to spend today's In Depth straddling two different realities: President Trump's second term, and a prospective President Biden's first term. If Trump were to win four more years in the White House, what can we expect from the economy to foreign affairs to controlling the coronavirus outbreak? If Biden were to win, how much of the Trump doctrine could a President Biden reverse, and how quickly could he do it?

Two possible outcomes, two vastly different realities...........we'll look at all of it on this Election Day edition of In Depth.

You've not doubt heard countless pundits and analysts give their predictions about who will win tonight..........but have you read the astrological charts of Trump and Biden? Have you..........turned to the stars? We'll get some unusual, astrological guidance about who might win the White House.

The long wait is over, the final arguments have been made and tomorrow ... election day will finally arrive. But what happens from there is anyone's guess.

Welcome to this pre-election In Depth, where we're going to run through several scenarios of how voting might go and set up what to expect tomorrow.

And then we'll look at the day after, and the scary prospects that no matter which side wins, violence might erupt after this long, tense, divisive campaign.

Speaking of tensions, how are you sleeping? How are you feeling headed into tomorrow? Stressed? You're not alone. We'll look at some methods to ease the anxieties.

We'll check in with a former chairman of the Republican National Committee about allegations that voter suppression...is a key tactic.

And then. COVID. New research shows there might be a lot fewer asymptomatic carriers than we first thought.

The horror story confronting this country, as we head into Halloween weekend, isn't the stuff of fiction it's in the form of a pandemic that is getting worse in just about every corner of the country. We're going to check on U.S. hospitals, which are issuing increasing dire warnings of being overrun by COVID patients.

There is some good news, however: an experimental antibody therapy, tested right here at Cedars Sinai, is showing real promise.

With the election now just four days away, where do we stand with the litany of lawsuits over when to count votes. We'll check on several key swing states.

The announcement that Jerry's Deli is closing down continues an extinction event for iconic L.A. restaurants; we'll look at what can survive in tough months ahead.

And this is fitting for 2020: a full moon, a time change and Halloween, all on the same night, just hours before the election. 

Have a stress free weekend, everyone. We will talk with the good people at the Farmer's Almanac about our triple...quadruple threat.

That sound you heard last night was the entire city of Los Angeles collectively exhaling -- and you also heard a lot of fireworks and screaming -- because after 32 long years, and some especially agonizing losses, the Dodgers are once again World Series Champions.

But because this is 2020, we could not escape reality: Justin Turner mysteriously vanished from the 8th inning..........because he had tested positive for coronavirus.

There are a ton of questions around the COVID protocols, around Turner's decision to come back out and celebrate, and whether the season needs an asterisk. So we'll go In Depth.

We've learned a couple things about Eli Lilly's experimental antibody treatment ....that it's proving ineffective for hospitalized, critical COVID patients...... but we've also learned that the federal government is going to pay 375-MILLION dollars for 300-thousand doses of that treatment. So we'll try to sort that out.

And then ... continuing our debates on the propositions: Prop 22........it would restore contract worker status for Uber and Lyft drivers. It's controversial and very expensive.

One week. 7 days. 168 hours. That's all that stands between us and election day, an election that is likely to smash voter turnout records. It's been a long, bitter, divisive - and strange - campaign, conducted in the midst of the pandemic. And no matter who you're picking...you're probably glad it's almost over. So we will go In-Depth.

The goal of reaching immunity for COVID has been intensely debated ... and we have new research on antibodies to throw into the mix. Can we actually reach it...if immunity itself doesn't last that long?

And we'll take you to San Francisco, which far and away has been the most successful major American city at keeping their outbreak contained.

Continuing our series this week of digging into California's propositions..........today we're looking at rent control and Prop. 21.

Should California allow local governments to enact new restrictions? Housing activists tried this before and were defeated a couple years ago. What makes this proposal different? And is rent control really the way to get out of the housing crisis? Prop. 21 at the end of the show.

This sound you heard, on CNN Sunday morning, was the sound of the Trump administration waving the white flag when it comes to trying to slow the spread of coronavirus.

White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows acknowledged that they're not really aiming to contain the spread of COVID, they're placing all of their bets on getting a vaccine and therapeutic treatments. Is that the right bet? We'll go in depth.

And whether you want to call what we're in the midst of right now the 2nd wave, the 3rd wave or the continuation of a 1st that hasn't really ended, we are most certainly headed in the wrong direction.

By the end of today there should be nearly 60-million Americans who have already cast their ballots in the presidential election.....and there are nearly as many ways to try and read into that early data. We'll take a shot at it.

And speaking of the election, we're going to spend the next few days on In-Depth talking propositions. Today. Prop 15. Which connects to that famous proposition just about every Californian knows...Prop 13.
