| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the beat. We are reporting as Kamala Harris just finished. Our big address in Pennsylvania coming off her major closing argument address in Washington last night. You can see both of those right now on your screen. |
| 0:10.2 | And we have breakdowns on these addresses coming up and Jane Fonda will join us |
| 0:15.1 | by the end of the hour on activism, human rights, and the women's vote. We |
| 0:19.6 | begin now with your update based on the facts. We're six days out from election day with clear signs of |
| 0:24.2 | signs of enthusiasm and early voting in both parties. 44 states holding the |
| 0:29.0 | early in-person voting. It's available in all 50 states if you count mail and 56 million people have now |
| 0:35.8 | voted that number keeps going up each night if you join us it's 35% roughly of |

| 1:38.8 | with the Democratic registered voters holding an edge. |
| 1:41.7 | Harris hitting Pennsylvania late today where another |
| 1:44.0 | large crowd was in a festive mood singing hit the road Jack getting ready to |
| 1:48.6 | reject Trump on Tuesday. Come on, go, go, no, go far hit the road, yeah. |
| 2:04.4 | Don't come back for more. |
